makeste: (Fearlessness in the face of death)

It's 2 a.m...

So... tired...

And yet, cannot resist KHR's siren song. Sob.


1. As [livejournal.com profile] rikasaurus pointed out last week, Lambo's attack is literally extreme with dinosaurs exploding. I reiterate: Best. Manga. Ever.

Also, Tazaru's face cracks me the hell up. He's just like... >8O. MAYBE IT'S THE SLEEPY TALKING, but I cannot stop giggling at him. >8O!!!!!


2. And then... he falls asleep.

Oh, Lambo. There are no words. And hey, look, the explodey circle thing is back. AND TAZARU IS STILL CHANNELING BASIL HERE, THAT KID IS CONTAGIOUS OR SOMETHING.


3. AHHHH AHHHHHH WHAT THE FUCK!!?!

SWEET MOTHER OF JESUS I'm gonna have nightmares tonight. HOLY SHIIIIT it's like a velociraptor hydra thing and oh my God I can't even look at it. I am not even kidding, I had to scroll to the top of the MH page while I was typing this because that bottom panel augggh whyyyy.


4. Ffffffff, WHAT THE HELL, KIKYO. "My freaky box transformation is a billion dinosaurs, la la la!" I am so thrown here; I was really expecting his transformation to be a) ugly (see: Daisy, Torikabuto), or b) hilarious (see: Bluebell). Or maybe even sort-of-kind-of cool, like Zakuro's. Not... legitimately terrifying. WHERE ARE THE UNICORNS??

But Ryohei is being awesome now, so I'll shut up. (Although, I just have to say one last time--Tazaru's face has NOT CHANGED THE ENTIRE CHAPTER. Seriously. I think it must have gotten stuck.)


5. ...I was all set to be pissed off at the fact that YET AGAIN, Ryohei's weapon is apparently--you might want to sit down for this--BOXING GLOVES!! OMG SO UNEXPECTED. But then, for no reason at all, his shirt went and EXPLODED. And I just forgave everything.

And Garyuu has a jetpack. I'm not tripping, right, that is a jetpack? That kangaroo is flying around with a jetpack, this is a real true fact?

...And Sunny Primo was a champion boxer... priest. Who literally punched someone to death. And then became a priest. And then joined the mafia.

How is it possible for so much awesome to be contained within a single manga, let alone a single chapter?


6. Heh, I called it (well, I think we all did, really)--Ryohei with darker hair and no bandage on his nose. (Actually, possibly this is just the lack of sleep talking again, but is anyone else getting this weird "Gokudera with Yamamoto's hair" vibe? XDDD)

And I don't even care that all the first gen guardians look just like their tenth gen counterparts, honestly. I know some people in the comm have been upset about it (though I haven't checked the reactions this week yet), but I mean, come on. It's a friggin' Shounen Jump series for god's sake. Is it really that unexpected? If people want different-looking guardians so badly, there are still eight other generations to choose from. :P

Besides, the important thing that shouldn't be overlooked is now that we've finally seen all seven, we can totally have a color spread of Primo and his bitches. EH? EH? I FOR ONE AM LOOKING FORWARD TO IT.

...lol, and I was so busy ranting about Sunny the First that I almost forgot the most important thing of all--RYOHEI PUNCHED KIKYO IN THE FACE. I WANT TO ZOOM IN ON THAT FRAME, PRINT IT OUT, AND HANG IT UP ON MY WALL. |D


7. --Never mind. I WANT THIS ONE INSTEAD.

I've never seen anything so beautiful. *_* Again and again! And again and again and again!


8. Colonnello... ;_; BAWWW RYOHEI WAS THINKING OF YOU WHEN HE THREW HIS SUPER SPARKLY PUNCH.

AND BAWWWW, KYOKO HE WAS THINKING OF YOU WHEN HE PUNCHED ALL OF THOSE INCREDIBLY TRAUMATIZING RAPTOR HEADS. Man, Gokudera kicking ass because he wants to protect Tsuna, Lambo kicking ass because he wants to see Maman, Ryohei kicking ass because he wants to protect Kyoko... Amano's really been pushing the whole shounen "FIGHT TO PROTECT YOUR PRECIOUS PEOPLE" thing lately.


9. Basil, do not even try to pretend you can actually do anything in this situation. Seriously. It's sweet and all, but that dolphin would be so maimed so fast...


10. Heeeeeeeeey, look who it is! Someone spotted a bunch of velociraptor heads mingling and crowding and decided that wasn't kosher, huh? |D GOOD TO SEE Y--

AHH WAIT WHAT?!! DISMAY! DISMAYYYYYY.

Okay, that has to just be a misleading panel, right? Something else is going on that just isn't clear yet, that's all. WE CAN'T SEE WHAT ACTUALLY CAUSED THE ARMBAND TO GO SOARING OFF IN A SHOWER OF BLOOD; I'M ONTO YOUR GAMES, AMANO. But it's really not her usual style to end on this kind of cliffhanger at all. I'm not used to this. :/ IS THIS THE PART WHERE WE HAVE TO WAIT A WEEK TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS NOW, cuz... not cool. :(


Sob I'm gonna go pass out now.

I agree; he's always attractive, but he was looking particularly good in this chapter. And I say this as someone who doesn't often fangirl him, even.
