What are you reading/watching? AKA Anime/Manga General

I pretty much dropped it after that camping trip with the teacher. The justification for Hina's actions seemed flimsy at best and it's something I simply couldn't get over. After reading the plot synopsis on wikipedia it simply wasn't for me as much as I liked both Rui and Natsuo.

Rui and Natsuo’s developing relationship is one of the highlights of Domestic Kanojo. I feel for Hina because I’ve honestly been in a similar situation for pushing away someone because I thought it was for the best but regretted it later. The irony is just too delicious I guess. This was a story that could have easily been about Hina and Natsuo romance but it’s not. I don’t see them getting back together so I wonder how it well resolve that sad past

D.Gray Man Hallow Episode 2: The full opening gave me a good shock. General Cross is probably hiding somewhere with Grave of Maria cloaking him, he's not dead.
I don't know what to think of him now, he basically lied to Allen for years. The recording that he leaves with Allen tells him to walk his own path, knowing full well of what's inside of him. I was even thinking of making him my avatar.

The other Exorcists are given orders to kill Allen if the Fourteenth awakens and is deemed a threat. After that, they have to deal with a phantom thief that's been stealing from the Louvre. The thief is a kid that can switch bodies with people, and now they're all trapped in a different space with a Level 4 and several other Akuma. Allen's eye should have detected them, but it didn't.

D.Gray Man Episode 3: So Timothy's Innocence, Tsukikami, let's him possess Akuma, giving him access to their powers. But his body is left vulnerable due to him not being in it, and he can only possess Akuma up to Level 2 right now. With enough training, he might even be able to possess Level 4 Akuma, his Innocence is awesome.
But that's not the biggest thing that happened.

Spoiler:

Allen was backed against a wall by the Level 4 in front of him. Crown Clown wasn't in his hand, so he called for it and it pierced him and the Level 4 at the same time.

Crown Clown is a weapon that is meant to exorcist the enemies of God, Akuma and the Noah, so it shouldn't hurt humans. But a few seconds after it pierced him, blood was coming from Allen's mouth and he was screaming in pain. The Akuma was about to attack right before Allen all of sudden placed his hand on the Akuma and said, "Good morning." Kanda and Allen destroyed the Akuma, but Crown Clown shouldn't have hurt him. It's his Innocence that's been his arm since birth. It's a part of him. You know I thought to myself before this, "Why doesn't he just use his sword on himself to destroy the Fourteenth?"

I don't know what happened, but I guess I got a glimpse into why that would be a bad idea. The question is, will Kanda talk about what he saw with anyone else?

And I found out that the ending, Lotus Pain, is sung by Ayano Mashiro. I thought that was pretty cool, it's a good song.

Poor Ciel.

I'm sure his weirdo employees will stay by him so he's not entirely betrayed I guess

[Strange_One]

May have have binged a certain vapid romcom that finished


What was with that bait and switch (╯°□° )╯彡┻━┻

[Rafflesiac]

Is he gonna get to keep this waifu though, that's the real question.

[Sandstorm77]

More like poor us with these constant cliffhanger.

[eddyak]

Is he gonna get to keep this waifu though, that's the real question.

It's that author. Of course there isn't gonna be a single stable relationship.

D.Gray Man Hallow Episode 4: What is happening to Allen, he really does need someone to save him. The Order has been making Akuma-Human hybrids from the piece of the Akuma Egg that Link recovered. They're effective, but they can't do anything against the members of the Noah Clan. Speaking of them, they all gathered together and are now attacking the Exorcists. I didn't think that Tyki and Allen would meet again so soon, maybe this time Allen will finish the job instead of making things worse. And who is Alma Karma and what is his connection to Kanda? I also would like to voice my dislike of the Akuma designs compared to old ones. I could barely tell apart the Level 3 and Level 2 Akuma from the past episodes. Oh, and Allen's hair doesn't spike up anymore, it's the small things.

[Rafflesiac]

>Alma Karma

I see you're reaching the dark times now.

[LJ3]

[Five_X]

This is where Pai swoops in and says "yeah you're 100 chapters behind and everybody died"

Be careful what you wish for...

D.Gray Man Hallow Episode 5:

Spoiler:

Jasdero and Devitt are alive.


Krory's Innocence in his blood went out of his body in one of the best scenes of the series to beat Jasdevi. I thought they were dead after they fell through the door in the Ark. But two Noah using guns, one with black hair and one with blonde, it has to be them. Looking back, the Noah said only Skinn was dead. I guess when Lavi, Kanda, and Krory were brought back after Allen used the Ark, they managed to survive the deletion too. Which sucks. So this Alma Karma guy, (they're using C with his last name but when I look it up, it's with a K), was a second generation synthetic Exorcist with Kanda. Apparently something happened 9 years ago which made Alma kill the research team and Kanda fought with Alma sometime later, thinking that he killed him. But in reality,he survived and was fused with an Akuma nucleus to have his cells be used to make the third generation Exorcists. I was surprised as everyone was when Kanda said he didn't know who was in front of him.


So there's a Noah with mental powers that was able to easily knock out Kanda and another who control bodies. The Millennium Earl must have went on a huge diet since the last time I saw him, I suppose he did have 6-7 years to do it. But the most surprising moment that came from the Noah wasn't any of the new ones. It was from the Fourteenth when he possessed Allen for a moment. The Noah Clan knew that the Fourteenth is in Allen ever since the incident in Paris and they don't want him to go back to the Order. For a brief moment, the Fourteenth took over Allen and said he wanted to kill the Millennium Earl to take his place. Right in front of Rouvelier and some members of the science division. There goes any hope of the Fourteenth being benevolent, I'm convinced it's evil.

>Alma Karma

I see you're reaching the dark times now.

D.Gray Man Hallow Episode 6: So the second Exorcist plan was to use the brains of fallen Exorcists and put them in new, healthy bodies in the hopes that they would be able to synchronize with their Innocence again, to keep up the Order's fighting strength. But if the test subjects start to regain their old memories, they'll be put back to sleep, which was happening to Kanda before Alma tried to save him. Alma was just trying to help the only friend he had. Why did things have to turn out like that?

After the tests they went tore them apart, parts of the bodies would just fall off. Even with their regenerative powers, they needed bandages to keep themselves together until they fully healed. And even though they can regenerate, it's still horrible to put kids through that.

Kanda said that he "killed" Alma 193 days after he woke up for the first time. By my estimation, that would mean they knew each other for about six months before the incident happened. Just 6 months.
