[Odin'sLaw]

Fairy tail #4 i can go to sleep happy tonight

[Insanecyclone]

This the last week off right?

[Tymon]

I guess they're adding stuff to the plot in the anime. Maybe the manga was too vague for people? About how Tsukishima got everyone on his side, that is.

[Nullibicity]

wow, Shingeki no Kyojin got 11th place. I posted about that in the manga thread, I didn't think it was that popular. :3 It has a few mysteries that I would like solved but it's a monthly series like all the other good ones.

[Xno Kappa]

Wow, how the hell did Fairy Tail get #4!? That manga is horrible lol.

[Apelila]

Wow, how the hell did Fairy Tail get #4!? That manga is horrible lol.

It's easy to follow and there are titties/cute animals everywhere. The fact that its not up-its-own-ass selfimportant is a huge bonus

[Lucavi]

Ample tits as well. Not enough to satisfy gulk, but enough to satisfy shonen lovers and small boys.

[DrClout]

It's something to read while waiting for Gamaran to come out. They usually post around the same time.

[Tsuneo]

For those that are interested, there is a tiny bit of information about the next bleach arc in this interview.

[meeeeeep]

Recently translated interview.

Spoiler: show

The places that have seen innumerable battles –

Naruki City
The place where Ichigo’s friend Keigo lives. The battlefield for the Lost Agent arc. The base for Xcution.
Seireitei
In the center of Soul Society, where the shinigami live. Soul Society itself already has 1 million years of history.
Rukongai
Located outside of Seireitei, separated into 320 districts.
Karakura Town
A town located near central Tokyo. Also a center of spiritual activity.
Hueco Mundo
A place that is largely desert. Barragan’s “city” is also located here.

Tite comment
The new arc is located neither in Karakura Town nor Soul Society. Although it is a new location, but it’s also “underneath somewhere” and “unexpectedly close.”

The location of the new arc is here!!!
“The concept is a place like a ‘palace made of ice.’”
Partial sketch
Two pillars immediately catch the eye in this rough sketch of the new arc’s battlefield. Behind them, there is a “palace of ice.” Perhaps the new enemies are hiding in there.
Partial sketch
Like tall cliffs and precipices. Everything is covered with ice, and what is that at the very end resembling a large waterfall…. The palace is on top of all this?

Tite comment
In the new arc, I want to draw a place like a “palace of ice.” It will be colored white, with blues and silvers as well.

Kubo-sensei confesses! The Arrancar are also in his plans!!
Tite Interview
Q: In the new arc, the shinigami will of course be represented, but will other characters from the past also appear?
Kubo: Yes, if the arrancar appear, I think they will stand with the shinigami.
Q: Will there be characters that appear in the role of a friend?
Kubo: Ulquiorra has already turned into ash. Grimmjow might become a friend. Also, what about Harribel, who is still alive? But, I wonder how I’d bring them out of Hueco Mundo. I think Harribel would not leave Hueco Mundo.
Q: Was the idea of arrancars becoming friends in your plans before this break? Or was it just a feeling that they might return?
Kubo: “They might appear.” Or it could be that “they might not appear.” (laughs) Even if they did appear, it wouldn’t be individually, but as a group.
Q: What about Nel?
Kubo: I think I will let Nel appear.
Q: I’d really like to see her interactions with Kon.
Kubo: Kon did not appear in the Lost Agent arc. But to tell the truth, he has rarely appeared since the end of the Soul Society arc, roughly five years ago. (laugh) People who only recently started reading might not know that he exists. (laugh)
Q: It can’t be that you’ve forgotten him?
Kubo: (laugh)

Will the espada return in the new arc? The editor makes a courageous prediction!!
0. Yammy –
1. Stark (extremely unlikely)
2. Barragan –
3. Harribel (unlikely)
4. Ulquiorra –
5. Nnoitra (extremely unlikely)
6. Grimmjow (very likely)
7. Zommari (extremely unlikely)
8. Szayel –
9. Aaroniero –
Previous No 3. Nel (very likely)

[Tsuneo]

I thought Kubo said Grimmjow was dead. Would be weird if he came back because Ichigo is so much stronger than him at the moment.

[arus2001]

So, how close is the North Pole to Japan? Santa and his nine reindeer must be the new villains.

[Odin'sLaw]

Santa lives on the moon due to Japanese traditions, at last learn about their traditions before you make a really crap joke/dig~

Edit: grammatical error

[Abandon]

*their, don't be a prick

[Uzor]

"underneath" and "close"... Sounds more like Hell to me - but that might be strange...

Classic Kubo.

[Sho]

Fuck yeah, Starrk isn't dead. Bitches don't know.

New place sounds like Hell for sure.

[Apelila]

Didn't he say Ichigo was going to hell a while back? Like, it would be the next major arc after Fullbringers?

Edit: Thread searched, there was a movie where he went to hell. Looks like he's about go to to hell and back.

Again.</yeeeeeeeeeah>

[Sho]

Do believe that was just a short story that Kubo dedicated to the 4th OVA (which was based on Hell).

It kinda makes sense if he makes this new Arc a "Hell Arc". It would tie together that short story, and allow for Arrancars to return all in one swoop.
