Dr. Stone 30



With the roots of an unknown plant, Ginrou is given the silver spear made by Senkuu, but he’s told that they still need his help to get the tougher ingredients, comparing him to a protector, which makes Ginrou imagine holding Kohaku like a hero.

The group heads out, arriving near the hot springs where Kohaku got water for Ruri.

Senkuu tells Ginrou that his silver spear is a sensor and that he should hold it in front of him and if it turns black, they need to run

Senkuu and Chrome notice there’s no fish in the river, just some emerald colored moss. Ginrou is hiding in the back, Senkuu chastising him for being so cowardly, even Kohaku saying she should just take it, but Ginrou insists.

They arrive at a massive emerald lake, seen as divinely beautiful, symbolized by a goddess in the background.



Senkuu explains that they’re here to get the water in the lake, but that there are poisonous gases like hydrogen sulfide, the silver spear meant to be a warning.



Ginrou nearly is exposed to the gas, pulled back by Kohaku at the last moment as we see birds that were flying nearby fall into the lake as they inhale the gases. The goddess’ form becomes twisted as she scares Ginrou with the illusion of her becoming a killer that nearly succeeded

The birds dissolve in the lake, Senkuu revealing that what they’re acquiring is one of the core materials in chemistry, sulfuric acid




The group retreats back to the village, Kohaku thinking she could try. But Senkuu warns her that any slip up would kill her, citing an accident where a group was traveling to a similar area, the leader kneeling down to tie his shoe and dying from the hydrogen sulfide

In order to get the sulfuric acid, Senkuu says they need to make gas masks, using Kaseki’s help to craft them.




But Senkuu isn’t certain these will be perfect, so he tells Chrome to stay behind, that before they go he will transmit his knowledge of science to Chrome in case they don’t make it as the chapter concludes.








We Can’t Study 33



Yuiga is shocked to learn that Rizu, Fumino and Uruka are all joining the cram school he’s attending. They want to try to improve themselves apart from him, studying in a different class.

But at the breaks, each of them approaches Yuiga, unable to keep up with the pace. Kominami’s frustrated at his friends interrupting her study time.

Uruka comments how she doesn’t understand the text she’s reading or even if she’s getting the right answers. Kominami explains that the cram school textbooks aren’t good for self study, recommending others to help them, the three girls impressed at their senior’s experience.

They start to part ways at the bookstore, but a suddenly rainstorm assaults the group, who takes shelter at Kominami’s clinic. Yuiga is embarrassed as the girls’ clothes have become more transparent after being soaked by the rain




Yuiga and Uruka both think about the fact that Uruka’s wearing the bra that Yuiga recommended when he was in the mascot costume at the lingerie shop a few chapters ago.

Fumino thanks Asumi’s father as she gets some towels, Asumi’s father saying that he’s glad everyone’s friends with his daughter as well as with Yuiga, commenting that he’s a good guy.

But when he lets it slip that Yuiga is Kominami’s boyfriend, Fumino pulls Yuiga aside, hitting him in the stomach in frustration. He explains quickly that it was a lie, Asumi confirming this. Fumino is relieved, saying that Kominami must not have special feelings for Yuiga, Asumi joking that she does like him, which only makes Yuiga and Fumino flustered.




Asumi asks Fumino whether she likes Yuiga, thinking that’s why she’s so interested, but Fumino denies this.

Later at the maid café, Asumi asks Yuiga which girl he likes, Yuiga saying he doesn’t have time for romance. But she then notes that after exams, things may be different. Yuiga notes that he never really thought about it.

Asumi offers him a rice omelet on the house and then gives a special service, teasing him that she might actually have feelings for him.

But the chapter ends as she squirts ketchup on the omelet, calling him a playboy, revealing it was another joke, Yuiga still saying he’ll eat the omelet regardless.








Black Clover 128

Correction: it was actually a really close match last time: Leopold and Jamon had destroyed the other team’s crystal, but it was a moment too late before Langris destroyed theirs

The Clover Kingdom’s ruler objects to this fight between Asta and Langris, the Wizard King using his Time Magic to slow them down with Chronostasis so they can’t quite start their conflict



We shift to Yami about to kill Sekke, but Cobb, the spatial magic user who transports people for the tournament, intervenes, saying that Sekke is still in the tournament.

The other members of Asta and Langris’ teams are teleported to where their unofficial team captains are still trapped in the Chronostasis magic.



The Wizard King releases them, saying he’ll have them do another tournament battle right now, their crystals ready for the matchup.

Asta asks Zora (apparently his alias’ name is spelled Xerx according to the newest volume release) and Mimosa for their help, Mimosa also noticing the bizarre magic around Langris. Zora finds it a bit petty that Asta would enlist them to fight for his own personal affairs, but he wants to show up Langris regardless.

Meanwhile, Langris refuses aid from Sekke and Flagill (the Snow Magic user), saying he’ll show them his power all on his own

The Wizard King and Marx remember their discussion about how the traitor who’s allied with the Eye of the Midnight Sun may be doing so unconsciously. The Royal Knights exam is meant to discern the mole within their ranks, the Wizard King willing to take them down by his words to Marx

Asta stops Langris’ spatial magic attack on their crystal, Mimosa and Zora going along with him to attack the other crystal, while keeping theirs at hand



Langris decides to just blast them with his spatial magic scatter attack, Asta only barely managing to block them. Mimosa heals the wounds he takes, Langris saying that he’ll win and prove that he’s superior to Finral.

Asta retorts that Langris is worse as a Magic Knight, abandoning the people and willing to kill them to take out the enemies when the Diamond Kingdom attacked, Finral saving people, even if he can’t attack like Langris can.

Langris says he will win this and that everything will fall into place, suggesting he may indeed be the traitor rather than William Vangeance.

Asta remembers Finral acknowledging him as someone who inspires and protects others even more than Finral does, saying that Asta could become the Wizard King.

With this inspiring him, Asta says he will defeat Langris as the chapter ends







Boku no Hero Academia 155

Correction here that Viz helped with: it was actually Chisaki who was observing that Nighteye’s moves were very similar to Mirio’s and deduced that Nighteye taught Mirio. 

We see Aizawa still captured by Chronostasis, who says that they have an interest in his Quirk, part of their research when using Eri. We learn his Quirk is also named Chronostasis, allowing him to slow people down when they’re cut by the clock hand parts of his hair, though he can’t move if he wants to use it.

Chronostasis reveals that Eri is the former boss’ daughter, Overhaul willing to do anything to achieve his goals.

Meanwhile, we see Deku is using the ground he kicks up with his 20% One For All power as a wall, but Deku is still only barely able to dodge Overhaul’s attacks.

He moves to finish this, but Overhaul dodges, saying that Deku’s not nearly as fast or skilled at combat as Mirio or Nighteye were, seemingly knocking Deku out.

We shift to Mirio, barely able to stand as he tries to get Eri away, telling her to leave him behind, that there are others who have come with him to save her

Deku is barely standing after the attack, Overhaul saying he can repair himself, but it still hurts because he has to disassemble himself to do so.

Overhaul seems to speak through Nemoto’s body on his arm, saying that Eri has caused him to “die” again, Eri remembering how she was “reset” by Overhaul when she was unable to provide him with what he needed

Eri appears, Deku telling her to go back with Mirio.

We see that Nemoto’s Confession Quirk can be used by Overhaul, Eri manipulated by him to come, her emotions still twisted by his abuse



Overhaul tells Deku that he’s only hurt Eri with his attempts to save her, Nighteye thinking to himself they can’t stop the future where they die and Chisaki escapes. Deku is unwilling to give up, saying he will save Eri.



The chapter ends as Ryukyu along with the remaining Bullet out of the Eightfold Cleansers, as well as Ochako and Tsuyu, smashes through the ceiling to save them







One Piece 881

Luffy is confused about the situation, Nami and the others trying to think of something.

Chopper brings up the Coup de Burst, though Brook says they don’t have enough cola.

Jinbe suggests they tack the sails and use Nami’s ability to predict weather patterns so they can enter the “Green Room”

They head right towards the wave, Nami thinking they can’t possibly survive. But it turns out the Green Room is a brief moment where the wave forms a space where a ship can move through, Jinbe knowing about this as a Fishfolk. 



The group escapes as Nami comments that Jinbe is an excellent helmsman, Perospero thinking they’ve defeated them and communicating as such to Katakuri.

Brulee thinks as much, though the mirror they have into the Thousand Sunny suddenly shatters, Nami having broken it. She tells Brook and Chopper to do the same for the others, insisting that these are Luffy’s orders and they need to trust him.



Brulee and the others are confused at the mirrors breaking, Luffy hearing Chopper through one of the mirror shards.

Nami tells him they’re okay, but they won’t be able to get to Cacao Island for another 10 hours at most. She tells him to find a mirror to Cacao Island and meet them there



Luffy is kicked away by Katakuri, only able to hold on by sheer willpower as he tells the group to hurry up and meet him there, smiling in spite of his pain to make sure they don’t worry about him

Katakuri, knowing what Luffy will say, wonders why he’d say something so reckless.

The chapter ends as Luffy says he doesn’t plan on dying here, ready to fight Katakuri again.







Magi 365



We see that where Morgiana is defending the people is the Kou Empire, at the site of where the Paimon dungeon emerged. The Fanalis knocks away more of the angels, the people confused as to why they don’t want to return to the rukh anymore. Toto and others with Morgiana are equally perplexed, though Morgiana tells them they need to focus on protecting everyone

Arba explains to Nerva that the people are right to be confused, since they weren’t under hypnosis so much as an altered state of desires. Now that the wish to return to the rukh is gone, they still remember it faintly, so they’re trying to adjust. She further mocks them by noting that it’s like everything they believed in has collapsed, wondering if they have any reason to continue fighting like this.



Nerva thinks she must be like Scheherazade, actually much older than she appears, even suggesting that she might have wanted to rely on Sinbad as well, since she was allied with him temporarily before.

Meanwhile, Kougyoku is still mulling over how she was willing to sacrifice everything to return to the rukh, even her country she was so devoted to.



Alibaba brings her back to reality, thanking her for making that sacrifice, saying they should work together now.

Koumei asks how they can stop the magic returning everything to the rukh, Kouen suggesting they treat this like the Black Spot back at Magnostadt and destroy them all with their Djinn Equip.

But Koumei counters that they should focus on the points of energy that comprise the magic circle that’s generating it, so that the spell itself will be rendered null, familiar with how they work with his own Metal Vessel creating a similar circle.

Alibaba remembers Aladdin explaining a similar principle when they fought the isolation barrier that Judal made when Hakuryuu was fighting Arba.

The towers that comprise the various dungeons that we saw before are deduced to be those points of power referred to before, Alibaba’s group moving to destroy them and trusting that Aladdin will fight David in the Great Rift.



The chapter ends as Aladdin calls out for his grandfather, his real body not far away.





Seven Deadly Sins 237

Cusack tells Zeldris he wanted to face the Seven Deadly Sins as well, but his priority was to protect Zeldris. His student tells him not to underestimate the Sins, Cusack responding that Chandler is in top shape still and he should be able to handle things

We see Chandler still raging at Elizabeth, swinging his cane and destroying the Perfect Cube, Merlin deducing he can use Absolute Cancel.



She tries to protect Elizabeth, but finds that Chandler can use Full Counter, since he was the one who taught it to Meliodas.

Merlin disappears, only her clothes left behind as Chandler figures she was using a Magic Seal, but it was turned back on her and her spells were negated (meaning this serves as a counter to her Eternity power, since those spells have to be recast)

We see that Merlin’s true form is that of a child, her adult appearance a glamour spell.



Chandler recognizes her, thinking she must be Belialuin’s daughter (recent fan speculation has suggested Belialuin might not be a person, but a place in the Demon World, though it’s still unclear).

Suddenly, Diane’s hand reaches in, getting Elizabeth and Meliodas out. Elizabeth tells her Merlin’s in trouble, but Chandler appears outside.

He assesses their power levels, Diane at 8000, but King and Gowther in the 30-40K range each. Chandler sees Gowther, noting he is the original Gowther’s doll.

Gowther tells the others that Chandler is not only Meliodas’s master, but also the highest ranked Demon (which means he might be on a similar level to the Ten Commandments or in the ranks of the Six Black Knights)

But Chandler says he’s not interested in defeating the Seven Deadly Sins, just wanting to return Meliodas to the Demon Clan’s side and punish Elizabeth. He tells them that he’ll leave if they just surrender them, but Diane refuses.

Chandler then uses a spell called Microscopic, shrinking Diane down to a few inches in height to her shock.

Merlin is trying to awaken Escanor, stunned that he’s in his original sealed form, meaning that Chandler brought true night to the area



Chandler reveals that Demon magic power increases with the night, summoning a rain of meteors upon them, comparing it to celebratory fireworks for Meliodas’ rescue



The chapter ends as King and Gowther combine their attacks together with Fusion Art-Celestial Arrow, preparing to attack Chandler.
