Ahhh...

It's a new week, I finally finished and posted my insane time travel fic, and I hold in my hands a fresh and delicious bagel. It's good to be alive! So now I will get back to work on the rest of those trick-or-treat dares.

From [livejournal.com profile] chesauroshin: I want you to do one of your crazy reviews on a Gokudera-centric chapter. I love crack, but you also get points for making me wibble.

Fucking yes! I'd do this even without the incentive of a shiny new treat.

KHR 61, a.k.a. 'Vongola Nono Trolls Gokudera for the Lulz' )

I can't recall the exact point when I became hooked on this manga.

But I can guarantee that if for some reason I still wasn't feeling it before chapter 10, then by the time I reached the end of this chapter, I was a fan for life.

In which the word 'crack' is redefined. )

Also, [livejournal.com profile] dismahboomstick, I hope you had a happy birthday several days ago orz!

~Retrospective KHR Theatre, Sexy Edition~

God, it's been like... two months since I last did one of these. And since last week's Jump was apparently a double issue (meaning that in all likelihood we will not get a new chapter this week) (insert weeping here), I'm going to need something to pass the time, damn it.

SO, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, LET'S REVISIT CHAPTER 9.

In which someone at Shueisha finally wised up to the fact that they could have a hit on their hands if they could only get this mangaka to include some sort of... fanservice. )

It's been too long since I did an old chapter recap.

If you can't infer from the above sentence that I am in fact about to do another old chapter recap, then you need to work on your inferring skills.

KHR Chapter 8, which begins with lulz and ends in tears. )

So, now that it's confirmed that Jump is off for the week, we can commence withdrawal.

*joneses*

Or I could try something slightly more productive, like another edition of Recapping Chapters That Came Out Six Years Ago.

Perhaps not the catchiest title, but surely the most accurate. )

And now I'll do Yamamoto.

But not, you know, literally. IF ONLY.

In which Tsuna tries his hand at advice-giving for the first time. It goes over pretty well. )

And on an unrelated note, Happy Birthday, [livejournal.com profile] azartti! I really hope you have a good one; you deserve it, especially given everything that's happened recently. *hugs* And though it's early (over here, anyway), Happy Birthday to [livejournal.com profile] chibikaya as well. ♥

I was going to just skip straight to Yamamoto's intro chapter.

But then I got to reading the chapter in between, and too many amazing things were happening for me to not make wry observations about them.

So I'm just gonna try to get it all out of my system as quickly as possible. )

Retrospective KHR Theatre: Act Two

When last we left our hero Sawada Tsunayoshi, he had succeeded in becoming middle school famous (like Internet famous, but lamer) by stripping down to his underwear and making Mochida more aerodynamic.

I have skipped chapter 2 because it is boring, so all you need to know is that since then, Tsuna has helped win a volleyball tournament, been abused an additional six times (so the count is now 15), and been stalked by a mysterious figure in Amano's first tentative use of foreshadowing.

And now, chapter 3.

In which we are introduced to my favorite character, and immediately conditioned to never take him seriously. )

ITP: FLASHBACK.

First of all, welcome [livejournal.com profile] starlinglove, [livejournal.com profile] mibelle26, [livejournal.com profile] juniormint, [livejournal.com profile] amcw177, [livejournal.com profile] saying_sooth, [livejournal.com profile] snapdraw_gone, and [livejournal.com profile] makemegray! It's a pleasure to meet you all, and I look forward to much capslocking, fangirling, and general getting-to-know-you-ness in the future. ♥

Second, a belated Happy Birthday to [livejournal.com profile] erisabesu and [livejournal.com profile] doomcake! YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME, I hope you know, and I hope good times were had.

And third, I was looking back at some of the early KHR chapters the other day (because the new arc was filling me with nostalgia), and it occurred to me that by getting in on the reviewing game late, I hadn't really given these chapters their due. So I've decided that before I get to any more of the new chapters, I'm going to go back and review all of the old ones first. IT WILL BE FUN, WE CAN REVISIT THE DAILY LIFE ARC AND MAKE FUN OF AMANO'S WACKY OLD DRAWING STYLE AND STUFF.

Anyway, we've got like a hundred and fifty-odd chapters to go, so we'd better get started. )
