ITP: Either geology or a cape...?

[makeste]

Some spoilers for KHR 244 are cropping up at Mangahelpers, so I FEEL LIKE POSTIN'.


1.

There's another popularity poll coming.

The characters are ordered in groups. (Dream teams, but vs each other xD)

Excellent. I'M GOING TO TAKE SIDES IN EVERYTHING.

Though man, some of these match-ups are serously not fair. Kyoko vs Haru? It's almost like they're trying to stir up wank in the fandom. XD

MY FAVORITE MATCH-UPS:

Gamma vs Shamal (I suddenly have a desperate desire for these two to meet.)
Adult Reborn vs TYL!Tsuna (Battle of the godmodes?)
TYL!Yamamoto vs TYL!Squalo (THIS IS ABSOLUTELY NOT FAIR AT ALL. Except for the part where even Squalo would probably root for Yamamoto in secret. But still.)
Lambo vs Adult Lambo (And this one is just horrible. XD HE IS HIS OWN WORST ENEMY.)
Hibari vs Dino (Is anyone even going to treat this as an actual popularity battle, as opposed to a battle of who-tops-who? AMANO DO YOU KNOW YOUR FANS NOT AT ALL?)
Hibari vs Kusakabe (Kusakabe's hair wins by default.)
Mammon vs Fran (This is another one of those horrible match-ups. Can you imagine if Mammon loses? NOT ONLY DID YOU DIE, YOU WERE THEN BEATEN BY YOUR REPLACEMENT IN A POPULARITY CONTEST. Way to rub it in orz.)
TYL!Tsuna vs Adult Tsuna (...someone is going to have to explain this to me, actually.)
Tsuna vs Gokudera (Come on, if Gokudera won, he'd probably commit seppuku.)
Xanxus vs Byakuran (BATTLE OF DICKISHNESS.)

This is so going to be the best poll ever.


2.

It seems the Sky lion can transform into a Mantle form (this part is kind of confusing, not sure)

This is one of those "spoilers" that highlights the disadvantage of reading third-hand accounts of the chapter on an Internet forum. XD What the hell is a mantle form? As far as I know, a mantle is either a cape, or one of the layers of the Earth. SOMETHING APPEARS TO BE LOST IN THE TRANSLATION HERE. ???

Incidentally, the lion's name is apparently Natsu, which forces one to wonder who would win in a "cutest name" battle between him and Uri. XD


3.

It seems the box animals from the vongola boxes can turn into weapons.
The weapons are especially designed for the Vongola and the weapons belonged to the 1st generation Vongola's.

SWEET although part of me is saddened that the weapons aren't based on, say, the fourth generation of Vongola. Mainly because that part of me really wants to see Tsuna battle with a fork.


4.

Squalo says that "Wolfsbane" is a very capable trickster.

Squalo looks at Natsu
"The same kind of Sky-attribute lion as the shitty boss....but the details are kind of different....."

...Is anyone else suddenly excited about the prospect of Squalo possibly narrating this entire battle? I mean, seriously, would that not be epic? BEST COMMENTARY EVER.


5. Lastly, I would like a bigger version of this now, please. (SO. FUCKING. CUTE. LOOK AT THEM, THEY ARE SO TINY.)

Squalo shoulda brought Lussuria as his camera-man to record the whole narration!

(AHH HOW ARE YOU I missed your comments! *hug* Really sorry to hear about your surgery, too. :( I hope things get a little better soon.)

YES, oh my God, he really should have. Maybe he did secretly and is like planning on covertly filming a Making of the Sword Emperor sequel starring his protégé. ...I say that as a joke, but with this manga it's probably possible, lol. XD

Aww thank you!!! *glomps* I'm okay just dealing with the swelling is a pain in the butt ^^
Haha little Lussuria with his little signs
Man the new chapter was so awesome!
Except for um discovering the whole 'Nuts' thing lmao!
