Manga Review and World Cup Musings

Jun 17, 2010 23:15

How was the World Cup for everyone? I'm pretty happy with my favourite teams so far. Germany was great against Australia and Brazil was OK, but I thought Spain, Portugal and England were a bit of a letdown in their games with less attacking. But Argentina just beat South Korea 4-1, which has me half happy and sad because although Argentina was the ( Read more... )

Hahas, you're definitely not the only one who saw the 8059 hints. Loads of peeps (me included) had fangasms ;D

I only checked my friends' page after I posted. Lots of people are happy about it. Even the non-shipper's on forums have commented about it xD

Does this mean you've caught up to the manga already?

That's OK. The 8059 was worth it, even the title page has some hints :D. But Yamamoto was in quite bad shape. So much blood T_T

I'm with you about England , sloppy imo. I'm also happy with Germany's performance but I gotta admit I was a bit sad when they beat the Land Down Under.

Knowing Hibari, he probably unmasked the Shimon even before the attack on Yamamoto.

You were supporting Australia? I did want them to at least get a goal. Let's hope England plays better in the next game. Can't have a team of superstars and play so randomly.

That's a thought xD. We haven't seen Hibari lately. Pity he didn't find Yamomoto and go something like "bleeding all over the floor is against school rules". Crack of course, but quite in character for him.

Not really.. but to see them get played out by bench warmers is a little sad.

Haha that would be funny xD But Yama's in a very serious condition, even Hibari would be concerned.

Which team(s) do you support? :wha

It would. But based on your earlier comment, it is possible that he'll suddenly appear at the ceremony and declare Shimon as the enemy while Reborn says 'good work, Hibari'.

Amano didn't completely disappoint me this time. I'M SO HAPPY. /manly tearz

I hope Gokudera crush 30-years-looking baseball guy and his hair to a bloody pulp. Just like that bastard did to Yamamoto. Bastard.

KISHI ALWAYS DO THAT, THAT BETCH. I FEEL LIKE BETCHSLAPPIN' HIM, I DO. D>

Your icon~ ♥

I hope he does too. The succession ceremony being next week should be more exciting.

Kishi's such a troll sometimes D:

Amano seems to be doing fans some ahem fanservice quite frequently in this new arc xD definitely an 8059 moment there, but if you look at it really really closely, it looks like 80+27+88x59 XDDD I'm still not happy Hibari is not getting enough panels =.= And yeah, Shimon's quite good at acting there 0.o Not good for Vongola there.

As for World Cup... I don't know why but I lost interest in most of the matches *facepalm* they're not as exciting as before like the ones in Japan and Korea long time ago. Pretty much of why I like Club games more =B and the fact that Spain lost is not helping either >BBB haha *ignore meh rant*

two week marathon and you already reached chapter 260 of one piece?! Give me your net connection!!!!!!!!! >DD mines getting slower and slower *sobs sobs* what are you using anyway? i only know that celcom broadband is such a pain in the *meep* -.-

Maths equations in KHR xD. Maybe Hibari is investigating the Shimon behind the scenes.

Oh yeah, the 2002 World Cup was fun. Obviously you're a Spain fan? Lots of cutr guys in there :3

Which clubs do you support?

I'm using streamyx. It's not very fast lah, but there were 2 days last week that the speed was good then it turned slow again. I think it's because of my holidays so I have more time to just sit down and read manga :D

madknoxx June 18 2010, 17:31:49 UTC
or maybe he's just doesn't care like he always do xD

haha, yup. and talented too :3

i've been supporting arsenal since form 3 xD even though they suck so much in the past 3 or more seasons since they won the fa cup =.=

hmm, i thought streamyx was better than broadband cause they rarely sekat sekat at some point. well overall malaysia's net connection is just poor xD i hope they'll improve it one day :D

True enough. But I can't stop laughing at your dancing Hibari icon.

I quite like Arsenal, but still more of a MU and Chelsea fan xD

But streamyx is still quite slow most of the time. I wonder how good the new high speed broadband is. And the private companies like P1 are more expensive.

So far, Germany has impressed me the most. Although I haven't seen Argentina play yet and they seem to be doing well. England's been okay, aside from sloppy goaltending. I was pretty underwhelmed by their performance. I couldn't watch the Spain game (curse you work! *shakes fist*), but I heard it was a fun game. Still shocked that the Swiss won. I have a bunch of games I wanna catch up on, though ( ... )

Germany definitely gets things done, style or no. I'm hoping England and Spain do a better job in the next game. Argentina were very good against South Korea, Messi especially.

Maybe he'll be confronted by both. I agree it's about time he reflects on his actions at the dome considering that they have affected him so much. I see it as friendship which has been pulled apart by time and secrets, which is why I feel kinda bad for Tatsuki and her relationship with Ichigo, her childhood friend and Inoue, her best friend.
