WSR 5-6 + 5-13-19






Disclaimer: This blog mostly utilizes scanlations for scheduling purposes. If corrections are needed, they’re noted after reading official translations. Both have a place in the community, but buy official manga volumes to support the author. If you can, also subscribe to Crunchyroll and/or Shonen Jump through Viz Media to read chapters nearly simultaneous with Japan. Most of the series covered can be found through legal means, so please encourage the industry that gives us what we love

We have a new series by Akira Okubo as the artist and Masashi Kishimoto, author of Naruto and Boruto as the writer, Samurai 8: The Story of Hachimaru. It’s set in an sci fi world and our lead, initially sick and weak, gains the power of a samurai, which means a body that cannot be easily destroyed and strength to face his enemies and protect his father. The background is interesting in how it utilizes more Hindu mythology and references as Naruto did over time and also has samurai ideals as the focus in contrast to ninja (even if they’re pretty similar)



 Dr. Stone 104

Senkuu and Gen play CSI and investigate the scene to figure out where the person that left the shells is, so they can find an ally to challenge the people that turned the others to stone, Soyuz having remembered that he was leaving the island as a baby from his people being petrified as well. They trace it back inland, discovering a woman being proposed to by 3 men






We Never Learn 110

 Yuiga encourages Asumi to think positively in spite of the clinic shutting down, her mother giving him words that inspired him to suggest a new perspective: that she can make whatever place she works at as a doctor the new Kominami Clinic. But her father, seemingly inspired by her and Yuiga’s interactions, decides to just open it up on weekends.







Fire Force 171-172

Tamaki unlocks more potential as she faces Hikage and Hinata, even Shinmon acknowledging that she’s become more powerful now after evading the twins for a minute
  

Meanwhile, Arthur and Shinra’s training starts in earnest after being drained of energy by all the bizarre “hazing”. Shinmon says they need to understand the pressure of death along with the breath of life to truly unlock Superfire power. But the training seems to be at a standstill, Shinmon starting the true stage when they’re on the verge of tephrosis (previously called Ash Disease)








My Hero Academia 227

Curious’ death only motivates the MLA, but Shigaraki sees another flashback that he doesn’t recall the context for, killing even more members as Spinner watches on. Dabi is attacked by an Ice Quirk user whose face is hidden.










 One Piece 942


Yasuie says that the hidden mark for the Kouzuki revolution was all a prank by him, taunting Oden and calling him a coward, the shogun killing him as Toko arrives. The people of Ebisu town laugh, mourning in their own unique way as Komurasaki stops Zoro from intervening.




One Piece is on break next week




Black Clover 204

We flashback to Nero first meeting the Wizard King, Lumiere, as a human called Sekre. They worked together to make the magic tools and were hopeful for a future with elves and humans allied. But the demon stopped him and initiated the plan. Licht, about to transform fully, asks his friend to kill him before he turns.




Seven Deadly Sins 309

Elizabeth and Meliodas explain briefly about how they are either content with (because otherwise the world would be in danger) or were unwilling in Meliodas’ case, to talk more about him having to leave. The group goes to Edinburgh, where Meliodas releases Gelda, telling her about Zeldris’ love for her, the vampiress leaving to find him. Bartra asks Meliodas to marry Elizabeth and take his place, but Elizabeth rejects the offer, saying she’s going to the Demon Realm with Meliodas.
