Lol, this stuff about Saitama is getting out of hand xP
Whenever people start going this route of who beats who its just stupid, each series has their kind of stuff, so it's really unfair.

Nah I agree in general, there are plenty of stupid debates like Naruto vs. Bleach or One Piece vs. Hunter x Hunter that I can't take seriously. It's about as dumb as those gaming death battles.

I find this more amusing though, just because One Punch Man fans get to troll based on how the series is written. Goku literally can't win because Saitama's character is basically a parody of him. It makes some of the reactions just seem hilarious. XD

I'm mostly keeping up with my old stuff right now, though I just got Nanatsu no Taizai finally "completed" yesterday.
I keep with with One Piece, Bleach, Fairy Tail, One Punch-Man, Tokyo Ghoul:re, Akame ga Kill, Hajime no Ippo, Attack on Titan, Nanatsu no Taizai, and when the autors actually feel like releasing stuff, Berserk, Vagabond, Hunter x Hunter and D.Gray-man.
As I just reached the current releases with another one I may be getting to start another one soon (though I still need to catch up with Freezing that I stopped some good time ago), and it'll most likely be old stuff like Samurai X or Fist of the North Star, or even Gintama.

What about you? Keeping up with the old stuff like me or going for the new releases?

That's a nice list! We have a few shared manga at least. I used to read a lot more, but currently I follow:

One Piece
Bleach
Fairy Tail
Seven Deadly Sins
One Punch Man
Attack on Titan
Magi
Adventures of Sinbad
Blue Exorcist
Nisekoi
Yamada-Kun and the Seven Witches
Hunter x Hunter (*cries)

Probably something I'm forgetting, but those are the one to come to mind. Some legacy, some just because I liked the anime a lot and didn't want to stop. I used to fill more time with finished manga, but don't have as much time for that nowadays. I'll probably start the Shokugeki no Soma manga at some point, and I've been considering trying out Assassination Classroom...though it has an anime out so I might watch that first.

Since One Piece was brought up...how long do you think until Luffy becomes a Yonko?

I read manga, just not as much of the usual big name stuff.  I'm more into manga like Chihayafuru, Saki, Boku Girl, Boku dake ga Inai Machi, D-Frag, Hi Score Girl, Oresama Teacher, Yamada-kun to 7-nin no Majo,Keyman - The Hand of Judgement, Yozakura Quartet, and a bunch of small slice of life titles.  I'll catch up, stop for awhile, then catch up again.

My latest favorite is a Keijo, which is so much fun and surprisingly well written, despite being about a sport where girls knock each other into the water using their bums.  



Yay manga talk
First i dont read mangas where i watched the anime and continue the story in the manga. The only one i done that with is Fairy Tail. But i stopped after the grand magic games.

I mostly (like 95%) read Shoujo and Yaoi :-o Manga!!!! And sometimes those disturbing or supernatural ones like Death Tube and Ajin.

And i recently started reading doujinshi manga. But all of them relates to fanservice....... You know what i mean.

I was about to start Magi some time ago, really need to do it.

About One Piece, something like 2 years for that to happen, it's in the last stage before it happens IMO, but the turn of events will make it still take a good while to happen.

Magi recently started its final arc, though I imagine it still has a few years of life left in it. It's definitely an interesting read IMO. It starts off like a traditional shounen in an Arabian Nights setting...but gets rather dark as it goes on. Some of the later arcs had some violent content that made me cringe...not sure if that's a plus for you. It's definitely unique, and I'd recommend it if you need something to read in the genre. I've personally been more interested in the spin off manga about Sinbad lately, which revolves around one of the characters in the main story, but they complement each other quite well.

I agree about OP. The creation of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet caught me off guard. I suppose it makes sense, since the whole tournament was building up to it, but I got excited seeing that. We still have Kaido's other two Calamaties to contend with...though I also wonder if Oda will shift the focus to Sanji and Big Mom now. Luffy challenged her already, so it might be she'll be the first to be beaten by Luffy.

I barely read any manga. The last one I really spent anytime with was Gantz, which I shotgunned after being unsatisfied with the manufactured anime conclusion. Nothing against it. I'd just rather see it animated over static images.

I read manga a lot when I was younger. There was a time when I'd rent tons of it from my local library, but it's been a decade of thorough internet discovery since I last did that.

Also, I've been meaning to start more light novels since I've been watching more and more anime based off them these past six or so months that ended after a paltry twelve episodes, or concluded long before the light novels ended. Light novels are a lot harder to find translated well and in bulk than manga though.

Usopp already predicted he would have 8000 followers, I was totally expecting it to happen to be honest, but it's still around 6000, so there will be more, probably after he beats Buggy, and yes, that's totally happening, Usopp will become a legend after he beats the invincible shichibukai Buggy, and his followers from Impel Down will start being under Usopp and the strawhats as well, mark my words.

And do you think Luffy will get to beat all the Yonko? He declared war on Big Mom and Kaido wants him because of he took Doflamingo out and broke his schemes, he have to get to Shanks and he wants to beat Black Beard as well, but I want to see other people beating the Yonko, not only Luffy, and I want it to be his crew members, specifically Zoro, Sanji and Usopp.
Sanji already messed with Big Mom by himself, Usopp luck could also make he be the one to take Kaido down in some way, and I could see Zoro going after Shanks to prove himself even more after beating Mihawk and show who is the boss, then Luffy would get to Shanks to fullfill his promise but Shanks would get killed by Black Beard, and Luffy will be going to take Black Beard. So each one of the "monster trio" could get to take a Yonko down, right like they are definitely going to take an Admiral down each as well, being Luffy taking Akainu down, Zoro taking Fujitora down and Sanji tanking Kizaru down, and would be nice if some mess makes Usopp also take Ryokugyu down, or supposedly so, still waiting to see how his powers are like.
But it may be more like other stuff will happen so other groups also ascend within the mugiwaras, like Kid group who is currently face to face with Kaido, so the new generation would take control of the pirates age and not only the mugiwaras, it would make more sense story wise, but it would be cooler the way I hope it goes as I said there, I'm a huge fan of Usopp, as you can see, lol.

Ah yeah! Usopp's great. Probably my favorite Strawhat after Sanji and Franky. And I can totally see him battling Buggy.

I've assumed that the Yonko would all be final arc antoganists, and that the other Strawhats would fight the admins. In Kaido's case, Zoro could fight Drought...Sanji could fight Starvation, and Chopper can battle with Pestilence or something. Though it would be pretty cool if the rest of the cast were able to fight Yonko. I think Luffy's challenge to Big Mom cements them as enemies, and he has to fight Blackbeard for sure. I like to think that Shanks and Luffy will finally meet on Raftel and fight there...as cliche as it sounds. I could definitely see Law beating Kaido though.

I remember seeing a discussion a while back about the Gorosei, and how someone thought Luffy, Sanji, Zoro, Smoker, and Jinbe would fight them all. I do think you're right about Fujitora vs. Zoro...though I'm not sure about the rest. Luffy vs. Sakazuki seems like a given, but part of me also wants an Akainu/Aokiji rematch.

Alright, just finished Majokko Shimai no Yoyo to Nene. That thing is fucking amazing. I'm talking fucking Little Witch Academia amazing! Seriously, just watch it. It's very imaginative, greatly animated and moving. We really need more animes like this.
Kiki can suck it because Yoyo is inda house!

Watch it if you're a fan of witches in animes. Also watch it because I said so!

You're totally right! It's absolutely awesome and everyone should watch it!
