#chapter 407

[basedkikuenjoyer]

We interrupt our regularly scheduled Skip & Loafer catch-up week to bring you...Konatsu. Because I woke up to a huge spike of love for an old Konatsu post. And because Konatsu & Ukyo are wonderful together. For this dynamic I'd not be into seeing play out in real life. Amazing single-chapter story about Konatsu, Ranma, and Akane trying to salvage the okonomoyaki shop while Ukyo is sick. Would love to see this animated in the remake because it's a hoot. You even get a pretty solid gag of our male kunoichi dressing for a gimmick as a "cute boy" but really it looks more like Lady Oscar or a Takarazuka actress.

This was a great gag too in the final chapter. Look behind the "Ran-chan!" panel. Konatsu's hiding behind it. Honestly? I was kind looking for an excuse to mention this one. Because it is a gag I've wondered about with Kiku. She never does quite like this where it's so obvious, but she has a habit of ending up blocked by speech bubbles and has that shy streak that her Academy appearances cranked up. So seeing it on another similar character in an iconic finale when we know Eiichiro Oda is a fan of Rumiko Takahashi? Especially right there in the same time period he'd be pitching Kamatari for Rurouni Kenshin. Definitely makes me think about that aspect a little more.

Anyways, thanks for the surprise when I woke up this morning. Always have time for Konatsu positivity.

Okay guys, I don't know how I've never actually noticed that before but in chapter 407 when He Tian goes back to fight She Li after he hurt Jian Yi, Mo goes to He Tian's place (he also knows the pin to his apartment??) but when She Li calls him to come, HE PUTS ON HE TIAN'S JACKET BEFORE LEAVING TO FIGHT

And I'm pretty sure this could be the same jacket He Tian gave him many chapters ago (or at least very similar to the one)

I guess Mo really wanted to show She Li that he doesn't "belong" to him anymore and this is honestly such a power move

Is the world that cruel...??

Why is he already blood thirsty..?

What about hope?

Part 2 of "HADES AND PERSEPHONE ARE THE BEST PARENTS IN ORV!!!" 😎👏👏👏

The one riding inside Pluto was blocking the wave all alone when various Fable-grade Constellations had failed to endure it previously.

Han Su-Yeong saw the chilling, dangerous-looking scythe held by the Giant Soldier and instantly figured out who it was. The thing was, the Fable weapon Pluto didn’t originally belong to Kim Dok-Ja.

[Great Fable, ‘Underworld’, has begun its storytelling.]

Even if it was a story where only a handful wished to see, the scale of Probability changed depending on who that handful of people was. And the existence that appeared now was a grand being who could handle such Probability all by himself.

Abruptly, a corner of my heart began tingling just a little. I ended up remembering the empty spots reserved for my parents during school events, back when I was still a student.

I always wondered how my friends felt back then. What did it feel like, having someone fill up those spots, having someone who’d come to you when you called out to them?

[Constellation, ‘Queen of the Darkest Spring’, has unleashed her Status!]

And now, I thought I could finally understand what they felt back then.

i think i mentioned this before but this is a good example of it, so i’ll do it again. like robin, franky starts out calling the straw hats by nicknames and only nicknames (with the exception of when he uses a full name or title, like with robin and luffy), but then switches to just their names after he joins and gets more comfortable with them.
