xparrot: Chopper reading (Brainbreaking)
[personal profile] xparrot
One Piece 432 (I badly need to update my icon. Am so broken all over again. On both counts.):

Regarding last week's important question: the answer is yes. Oh Yes. Both of them, even. Bwah. Oh, Odacchi.

ルフィさん、ゾロさん、お久しぶりです。僕がわかりますか?
too, too cute!

Regarding certain other revelations in this chapter - hoooo boy.

The scans are awfully fuzzy and I might be coming down with a cold so translation is difficult, but Robin seems to explain (to Luffy, because Luffy is, naturally, the only person there who doesn't know. Bwah.) that Dragon is the leader of the revolution against the world government (?!), the only power capable of taking on the government singlehandedly. He's inspiring insurrection in many kingdoms around the world, hated as a political fixer and is number one on the world's Most Wanted list. (Bounty of how much one wonders??)

However, he's a man of mystery; the whole world is searching for him but no one knows anything of his background.

"Monkey D. Dragon" is also, if you missed the spoilers, Vice-Admiral Monkey D. Garp's son, and Luffy's father.

Well, that explains why he saved Luffy in Logue Town...

ETA: HQ chapter is easier to read. And. Yeah. Wow. The screamingly funny parts are almost as funny as the incredibly cool revelations are cool. Especially the final punchline. Idiocy runs deep in their family (but what the heck is the deal with Ace? He's a Portgas not a Monkey...is he Luffy's blood brother or not, then?)



Meanwhile, Eyeshield 21, 207:

Too tired to try to figure out blurry furigana. But whee, color pic! And aww, the trios, both sets. (Hiruma & Musashi & Kurita are much love. They're such total opposites in all three directions.) (and I am so getting that artbook. Am weak. Besides it's coming out right in time for my birthday~ must be a sign!)

The maid outfits. No words.

Also, is it bad that since the Shinryuuji game I've had this little thing for Monta? I mean, he's an idiot. But his number one catcher thing is sorta kinda unavoidably cool. And he and Hiruma have these occasional moments of trust that get me, on a purely platonic teammate level - here, when Hiruma asks him if he can match Sakuraba's height, and Monta answers honestly, no, even at his max jump...and then he catches Unsui's pass, and...yeah. Cool. Shoot me now. (Meanwhile, Sakuraba is, erm, hot. This length hair suits him best. And, "I'm not Oujou's Ace. Shin is. For now.") And they're setting up the receiver rivalry and oooooh I want this match.

...I'm looking forward to a football game. Damn Eyeshield. >_>

Ahhh, dammit! I saw the raws for Eyeshield up and I almost downloaded them but resisted because I didn't want to look at the chapter until I had even the half-assed translation that we seem to be getting of late. And now you're making me want to download it anyway and *flaaaaaaail*

*mrrrgle* *is weak* there's some sort of karmic retribution here, isn't there?

(oh, and there's high quality scans up now... oh... so pretty. I need to see if I can stitch those two pages together.... why do I get the feeling I'm going to try instead of going to bed like I should be doing right now?)

Sakuraba is a very pretty maid, hehe nice legs. XD There were probably some panty shots there. I can't wait for the next game too! ^_^

Yes, the watching girls seem to agree about Sakuraba!
we're together in anticipation! ...I don't know if I should feel guilty or triumphant for dragging you down with me XD

I think it would've happened eventually, although putting up that torrent to 160 of the chapters sped things up. A lot. XD

Okay, if you get that artbook, you *have* to scan the best pics and share the love!

hai~ (...you realize my definition of 'best pics' will be Hiruma, Hiruma, and Hiruma, as well as Hiruma and Musashi and Hiruma and all the 'Bats and maybe a few of the rivals. And Hiruma.)
