D.Gray-man Chapter 188 Discussion

Oh, no my poor Kanda T_______T

I can't stand see him like that. Come on Kanda get up and fight. x(

Interesting chapter. Finally some light on Yuu's past that's been dragged from almost the beginning of the series.



Is it me? Or are their personalities a bit different than before? Especially these three

Millennium Earl

Allen and

Kanda.

So Alma is THAT PERSON... no doubt about it.

I seriously don't think he is "that person". One, because of Master Zhu's statement and two, because of Kanda's shocked expression upon seeing Alma. If they fought against one another when they were kids, and Kanda won, wouldn't it mean that Alma "died" in the battle? If he had 'survived', Kanda would've known and wouldn't take 9 years to search for him when he was under his nose. And the shocked expression in this chapter clearly shows that Kanda wasn't aware of Alma's "survival" which means Alma isn't "that person".



I'm thinking Kanda (maybe) wanted to die to see Alma in the afterlife... if he believes in that kinda stuff

assuming that he thought Alma was really dead

would kinda make sense how he doesnt really care if he gets his ass completely kicked and uses his "regeneration" ability so he could actually die

that would make it even more shonen-ai like XD

and would make Kanda suicidal...

Am I the only one who prefers less human version of Earl? ^^

Nope. I want him to stay in his ugly pedoface form D:

'Cause I'm really curious. :)



Rumiko Takahashi says hi.



The gender of the author has little to do with the genre of the manga. And while there are a number of female fans of DGM and shounen manga in general, the fact that it was published by Shounen Jump for the past several years is fact enough that the main target audience is male. I doubt a main character being gay would go over well.



Oh,sh--! I hope that didn't come across as mocking! That "just curious" bit was meant to mean "cause I'm too lazy to check every shounen series that has a female manga-ka" ;_; (and how could I forget about FMA?! *oh noes*)

FMA (not only the best shounen series ever, but also the best MANGA ever), KHR, Pandora Hearts (now matter what your opinion is on Gil/Oz, it's still shounen xD), Nabari no Ou (if I'm not mistaken...), Inuyasha, DGM of course, Ichigo 100%, Zombie-Loan (also DearS), TRC, Terra e..., Samurai Deeper Kyo... too lazy to find more.



Can I dare to say that, for me, the slash-y and you-can-clearly-see-that-is-has-a-female-author ones like Nabari or Pandora(which I haven't seen yet XD) don't actually come in that kind of category? XD I mean, they do, but, not in that way.... I hope you get what I'm trying to say ....

everything is confusing me, forgot everything that happened :|



Yeah, me too xD

But I like what's going on. The only question I have is

IS LAVI EVEN IN THIS MANGA?

Cause if he doesn't appear in the next chapter, I'm gonna enter rage mode. I miss my Rabbit.



Poor Kanda D:

Kanda was such a woobie in the chapter. Poor guy. T___T

LaviLee is the way to go (if at all).

Lenalee is only for Kanda, she need somebody calm.

but it's only my opinion ; )

Heh, wouldn't be bad either, you're right.

But I think we both agree that Lavi needs more scenes in this 'new' DGM D:
