Breaker: New Waves 71 is out and this chapter really has me hoping that our lovable protagonist finds a way to harness some goddamn ki because if he has to keep getting his rear end saved for the rest of this manga every time his naivete rears it's head I'm going to be disappointed. I'm ready for the protagonist force of will shonen power of friendship and justice gear up already, I've been ready since the fight in the gym when he managed to hold off the swordsman with willpower and I've got less interest in seeing him tortured and abused yet again and more interest in seeing some righteous rear end-kicking coming from someone besides Jini's grandfather already. Not that I wouldn't welcome more of that too, but seriously let's go already.

Scott Bakula posted:The Breaker was always slow as poo poo, there was just enough of it out to be nearing the end of part 1 when everyone started reading This is really the truth. If you go back and read through the start of New Waves things actually happen at a decent pace in terms of in-world timelines. It's just that each individual chapter is slower paced and nuanced. It'd probably feel like it advanced more evenly if it were a monthly release of 40-60 pages and not a weekly 20 page shot. I guess I could wait a month and then run through four chapters at a time if I had any self control where stories are concerned.

Do not underestimate the world of spoilers! A man's spoiler, I'll show you the difference in scale! So is she a cyborg or what? Honestly from all that we've seen so far this reveal didn't even surprise me.

Hidingo Kojimba posted:When I read this one I get a "Korean Bleach, but still at the point where Bleach was kind of interesting" vibe. Inclined to agree, and I really like it so far. The characters have motivations that are at least somewhat more nuanced than a cardboard cutout what with our protagonist not wanting to have powers at all and her body snatcher not really knowing how he can resolve his situation. I almost get an Inuyasha vibe from the two main characters thus far, but it hasn't gotten terrible yet so I'm holding hope the author continues making somewhat believable characters. The ghosts are all fantastic as well.

Lyon posted:Also let's get the ki-center permanently fixed already. This should've happened at least fifty chapters ago. Yeah it's great to see how cleverly he can manipulate his minuscule amount of ki or whatever to barely escape fights he must really be a prodigy we get it already. I hope this explosion deal knocks him out and kills a bunch of the clan including the gramps and then we timeskip to 6 months later to see SUC is doing all sorts of crazy bad poo poo. Cue two generic skulls talking about a rumor that someone has been taking out their guys and the one doing it is some untouchable beast. Next panel is Shiwoon utterly trashing them like Gramps did. Because without a timeskip I don't foresee us getting to a full time badass Shiwoon until 400 chapters in at this pace, if ever. We get little tastes of it but that's it. Maybe the author doesn't want that at all, but I find that hard to believe. Mo_Steel fucked around with this message at 21:44 on Dec 28, 2012 |

I'm expecting a lot. I'm assuming he's using the same thing as against Coolguy, except this time he's not calm. I hope we get some absolutely sloppy knock down drag out brawling going on here, him just throwing himself and anything within his reach at the guy, punching clean through the hoods of cars, busting trees, complete brutality as everyone else just stares on in abject horror or runs in terror.

Honestly I found the short interlude to Elder Kwon to be the most thoughtful part of the chapter. BS about his spirit center aside, that Elder Kwon could set his focus on the head even when just informed one of his fellow Elders, a man who he was probably at least somewhat close to, is dead? Elder Kwon is a steel hearted motherfucker, and Shioon is fortunate to have him trying to look out for him and the clan now.

Newest chapter of Breaker New Waves is out. The last page is pretty  and presumably allows the author to end this fight without Shion destroying all the cops incoming.

Lyon posted:They need to end that story arc. If these last few chapters set Shiwoon back on the ki center recovery I will be moderately annoyed. I think I would just stop reading weekly until someone told me he was 100% fixed because come on. What they should do is have a couple chapters of recovery, then have him and the clan go on the offensive trying to go after SUC. I mean his moms in the hospital, they just loving demolished the school, what else is left to him now? He's pretty much at his lowest point, so in traditional heroic arc fashion it's time to start making a serious comeback.

Gearhead posted:It's true, this is the most CHANGE we've seen in him in a long time. We're actually very close to the personality he demonstrated towards the end of the first series again, when he woke up and realized 'Wait a second. I'm actually kinda badass.' I just hope the author doesn't go super overboard about it. It's not too much to ask for a Shioon that demands respect and doesn't accept bullshit while at the same time being a selfless individual where his friends are concerned.  What's the bit about "he really believes he is the Gaju" supposed to mean? Do they just think he actually is a figurehead?

KittyEmpress posted:I hope the Elders get to the hospital before the doctor gets to Shiwoon, because otherwise I can't see a way for this arc to end without Shiwoon trouncing the doctor guy before the Elders get there. The doctor isn't there to fight him though, but to help his recovery so they could use him to control the Sunwoo I thought. If he doesn't need healing that's one thing, and Shioon might be unwilling to tolerate continued disrespect so that could lead to a fight I suppose. Lot of ways this could go from here.

I was really hoping that we would see Shioon just take a tree branch and throw it into the helicopter's cockpit, but I suppose him taking on dozens of them single handedly works for me too.

Lyon posted:The artist did a fantastic job on that page. If you go back and look at Breaker the pulled back hair style Shioon has because of his hands is almost exactly how 9 Arts Dragon used to wear his hair. He probably also played with the facial lines a bit but my memory isn't that good. I don't think Elder Kwon would hesitate for a second to poo poo all over any duel procedures or rules if he was so inclined to interrupt the two of them. He has a history of not giving a gently caress when his clan is being screwed with.

Batterypowered7 posted:Chapter 121 of The Breaker: New Waves Hahahahaha, Shioon being a pedantic fucker in the middle of a fight is a wonderful throwback to his character at the very start of the first manhwa series when he minced words with Nine Arts Dragon to try and get him to train him. Seeing him do the same thing and then try to destroy his opponents' foot is all sorts of wonderful. I'm a big fan of the line-crosssketching that occurs when someone emanates lethal intent in this series, though I think arguably my favorite single image of intimidation is this one from the Coolguy fight:

Rocks fall, everyone dies a horrible grisly loving depressing death, gently caress everything and burn it down.   At this rate is the best possible outcome that the ambulance driver ends up with Sori, and that the President gets hit by a loving bus? Someone is going to have a happy ending god drat it, I need someone to have a positive ending in this story.

New Waves 138 Wasn't expecting them to get wiped out basically in a single chapter by one person, holy poo poo. Given that this is the person at the end of the original series seemed pretty much equal to Goomoonryong after he had snapped it makes sense.

Afterschool War Activities has a new chapter. This series started off slow, but now it seems like poo poo is hitting the fan left and right. In 10 more chapters it'll be 3 people left alive if they keep loving things up in the field against these things.

RatHat posted:I think he's definitely going to hit a limit on how many skills he can learn soon, and have to start deciding whether to forget skills to learn new ones. That's my expectation as well. The combination of that and stat requirements is enough for our protagonist to have meaningful hurdles in any future battles to keep the tension up.

AVeryLargeRadish posted:Pretty much this. I know your pain gamer dude. Where the gently caress is the respec guy anyway? Why the hell is there no manual? Remember that item description last chapter? Mark my words, the devs are laughing at us right now, fuckin' devs. We haven't even gotten a glimpse at Mounts yet.  The Gamer sounded like a dumb premise at first, but I'm really enjoying it so far. The plot seems to be slow so far but I can settle for that as we learn the world mechanics and our protagonist.

Oh crap, if he can form a party can he also form a guild or clan and send tells or create a guild bank to pool item storage? This changes everything. I wonder if his raised Intelligence is going to manifest in his personality and not just as "I get better grades in school / have more mana). Will he start making connections about how stuff works more rapidly? Mo_Steel fucked around with this message at 01:07 on Jan 18, 2014 |

Honestly I kind of want to see the other Elders do some fighting once in a while though, Would've been nice if Shioon would've put up some defense as well, though I understand why he might not at all be concerned about being attacked despite the words given that he hasn't seen Nine Arts in such a long time.
