The power of intimidation, a curious add-on

Another anime-only addition is Tiger Dan standing up to intimidate Ron by enumerating the things he received from the M Family concerning his childhood. That is a kinda frightening scene where Tiger Dan made Ron realise that he is also a monster like the rest of the M Family bc he benefited from their support. In this way, Ron being rattled again is more believable.

In the manga, Tiger Dan only made his speeches sitting down.

Naturally the effect is more evident in the anime with the power of Tiger Dan’s VA Takehito Koyasu (Nicholas Gogol, Dio, Toji Z’enin, etc. are some of his works).

On the other hand, this boggles me.

Remember the recent manga chapter, No. 151?

This panel kinda clashes with the panel off Chapter 43.

In Chapter 151, Toto was so sure that the Holmes side of the family hid Ron’s birth and yet on Chapter 43, the M Family knew all about it. I wonder if this is part of the lie on the side of the M Family. Or it is blunder made by AA. Hmmm…

A reminder that Olruggio's failed spells are the ones that are so perfect that they have to be nixed because spells should have flaws

OLRUGGIO IS JUST SO TALENTED AND PERFECT

I’m crying Hinata said “I’M HERE!” and Kageyama said “took you long enough” I love them so much my heart is in tatters

Kinda official art from One Piece Gakuen, Chapter 43, uploaded (and translated) by @1000sunnygo here!

And I know the picture (or preview) has been posted before, maybe by Sunny, but I just gotta get out this picture of baby Law on his tricycle (or actually, I think it's a pushbike!), learning to ride, I think.

Cora-san about to trip on that banana peel and bring everyone down with him. I don't know if the sweat drop is because Law is prescient, or he's concentrating on getting balance and motion right (something Cora does not know a lot about a lot of the time!)

The plan to end the second season will be just in time for New Year’s Eve. I am certain that they will give us the info if there’s a third season on the last episode. Like what they did after airing the 13th episode.

Synopsis for Episode 25: The Plateau Auberge Serial Murder Case [Part 2], anime vs manga (Chapters 42 & 43)

Ron was shocked to discover that his father, Elliot, was a member of the M Family, realizing that the blood of a criminal flowed in him. Even when the third murder occurred, he did not react, and Toto continued the investigation while taking the apathetic (more like catatonic, no?) Ron along. Eventually, Ron regained his composure and informed Toto that he would withdraw from detective work after this case.

We will see if Ron would eventually give up the sleuthing.

Dungeon Meshi Volume 7 Part 1

Welcome back! Today we are covering volume 7! As always, this is a post finishing look, so spoilers ahoy!

So... does Kui have a thing for legs? I can't help but feel like there are quite a few spots where legs are emphasized, and there's even that extra where Namari accidentally reveals she has a leg fetish.

I'm still questioning where they got the stuff they already had. Where did they get the bags and futons?

Kabru. Kabru, were you so desperate not to eat monsters, that you tried eating soap?

Trust me, the real reason is a lot stupider.

Normally I'd make a joke about "Oh if only you knew," but honestly? This one panel is sexier than pretty much every piece of fanart I've seen, so for once, good job not being horny internet.

*Glances over at my succession post where I briefly touch on Marcille's and Izutsumi's reproductive situation.* Oh no, I am a Laios.

Oh boy! I can't wait to smell like fish!

An important image.

Laios: God, I wish.

An important bit of exposition that got cut from the anime. This is how the Faligon can sustain itself despite the tiny mouth.

Not gonna lie, I laughed out loud when I saw this silly thing. I recognized it right away. I was making a card game a while back involving ecosystems made of real, extinct, and fictional plants and animals, and I was having a heck of a time finding mythical/fictional plants that weren't just "fruit but real good" or "fruit but real bad" or "Walking tree". The vegetable lamb is a real standout. (And of course I had mandrakes. They were in the 'real' category, and had a special interaction with fictional creatures.)

Why didn't Chilchuck kick the staff down to Marcille? Is he stupid?

Uh, I get the metaphor, but how does this accomplish anything other than getting you more lost?

I wonder if the rind also tastes like crab. Honestly, this thing sounds great. I'd eat it.

More Kui leg propagnada.

That's an oddly specific thing to be worried about. Like, things are advanced enough in this world that basic plumbing exists, right?

I love how this stupid bell does nothing but annoy Toshiro until the eleventh hour.

Did you? Kabru did, but you just ate an onigiri, and that other stuff Maizuru made.

Falin is a proper cleric. All holy and kind and healing, but willing and able to cave in some skulls.

I love how in this spot highlighting Laios's questionable party, Kabru can't say anything bad about Chilchuck.

Another Laios parallel. Kabru also manages to rope Toshiro into his business against his better judgement.

When you overthink the metaphor and it makes way too much sense.

When you overthink the metaphor and it stops making any sense.

Kitty

Seems like a heck of a loophole. Why didn't we bring this stuff with us?

Haha, get it? Dying? Cause they can't?

I think the fact that Laios has a stronger emotional reaction to a minotaur than he does a succubus says everything really.

They mention it at the brewery too, but I like how they like the orcs. I wonder how much contact they have with the orcs? The orcs don't talk about it really. Do they just leave caches for the orcs to find? Or do the orcs vist the golden country directly? The brewer mentions the hops were a request, so they must communicate somehow.

How I feel about other people's kinks.

Senshi. You can't just drop that line without context. What do you mean? Are they grafting dryad buds to more typical plants? Or are they making horrible plant chimeras? Give me the botany details dangit!

And with that, we will continue in part two!
