Chihayafuru – 129

May 10, 2014Guardian EnzoUncategorizedChihayafuru, Manga, reviews
Comments (4)

This series has certainly taken a surprising and intriguing turn. Without a doubt, one of the most appealing aspects of Chihayafuru is that it can entertain, enlighten and emotionally engage in so many ways.  One might say that is both a great strength and a great weakness, and further that […] Read more

“I Feel a Little Sorry For Them” I’ve mentioned this before, but reading a baseball manga monthly is tough.  Especially an Adachi manga.  I’d be lying if I said I didn’t find myself getting a bit impatient with the rate of development.  As a result a chapter like this one, […] Read more

This Time it’s Real – Hunter X Hunter Returns (Updated 4/23/14)

HE IS BACK Update: the official return date is the 6/2 issue of WSJ.  The tagline: “What is being aimed for is darkness. What is being hunted is hope. What blocks the way is endless despair.” Hunter X Hunter is returning to Weekly Shounen Jump, starting in June.  This time […] Read more

Chihayafuru – 126-128

In the immortal words of Azuma Yuhei, this is getting complicated. Life with Chihayafuru was certainly easier when Suou was someone we knew little about and were given no real reason to like, and we could unabashedly root for Harada-sensei with a clean conscience.  But as any fan of Hunter […] Read more

“Now That’s Huge” I confess I hadn’t realized that the translated version of this chapter has been out there for a while, so my apologies for that.  It happens to be a pretty eventful one, too, with the best and most important on-field action of the series so far – […] Read more

Otoyomegatari – 36

“In Her Garden” Mori-sensei + cat = win. I must say that narratively speaking I found this new chapter to be a bit of a snoozer, though I suppose it’s only natural since I have no connection with this new bride.  But the art was so beautiful you can’t help […] Read more

Chihayafuru – 124/125

Let the games begin. It’s a double release of Chihayafuru this week – in translated form anyway.  And the form the story itself takes should be very familiar to viewers of the anime’s second season, because these chapters take place almost entirely in tournament mode.  As always with the Queen/Meijin […] Read more

“That’s My Brother” So the last chapter was titled “My Brother” and this one “That’s My Brother”.  Is Adachi getting lazy in his middle age?  If the title of 20 is “Are We Really Going to Masadora?” we’ll have a pretty good idea. The translations of Mix are coming fast […] Read more

“My Brother” Baseball must have drama, Radishes gotta be from Nerima, And Saury’s gotta be from Meguro. Thank you kindly for your attention. It seems to me as if Adachi-sensei’s fourth-wall breaking – always a staple – is on the upswing of late.  That passage was how he justified Touma […] Read more

“Report” Every time NoitaminA announces a new series that isn’t Otoyomegatari, I grieve a little – especially when it’s a manga adaptation.  I’m prepared for the obvious possibility that this series will never be adapted – there are major difficulties any producer would have to face, plus the near-certainty that […] Read more
