D.Gray-man Chapter 188 Discussion

lol there is more discussion about parings then the plot, even when the manga has nothing going on that is stopping/starting any one paring.

Just because for now the focus is on the male characters (not that Road or Renee or whatever her name is aren't there too, though) doesn't mean it's shounen-ai. Two lonely kids becoming friends is not shounen-ai, it's just two kids becoming friends. No evidence of homolust so far.

You summed up everything I was about to say, I don't see how there can be any romance based solely on the fact that Alma is important to Kanda.  But then that may just be me.



On another note, hopefully things will settle down a bit now that DGM has become regular.  The last couple of chapters have felt quite rushed and confusing but I think it should get easier to understand from here on.  I think I need to re-read the series, I did not recognise alot of the characters (the Noah especially) or realise that Road was the puppet thing...  Anyone remember who's coffin that is?

New adventure...this time its up close and personal.  Oh Shit!

Yes, he was indeed too nice when he punched Bak, like, two chapters ago. >_> LOL

But honestly, Kanda has never been a total asshole. He just acts this way and one of the reasons is that he believes he doesn't have much time left. He doesn't want others to get too attached to him and he doesn't want anyone's pity either. But even in earlier chapters he often acted like he didnt' care, but ended up helping others anyway.

So what did he do in the last few chapters that was so out-of-character? Any examples? For now it seems you don't really know what you're talking about.

about this punch I have nothing to say, he shouldn't do it. but!

seriously, I don't think he want to help couse he hadn't much time left. he's helping, and only it.

he was better when he was quite.

Oh, and Lavi/Allen exist only in fangirls' dreams. It doesn't even make any sense. Lavi/Lenalee or Allen/Lenalee maybe, but this isn't a shoujo manga anyway. Instead of speculating pairings, it's better to focus on the plot.

these two are the worst. to sweet, bleh.

Amen to that...

what do you mean?

Thanks got the seralization is here but... what's with the "the end draws near" in the beginning, I'm getting scared Hoshino-sensei plans to end it quickly T___T



Still, the chapter cover is so damn gorgeous *____* Much better than the art in last chapter and Allen looks older >///<



But poor Kanda >< I'm afraid Noah will use him to fight against Exorcists. And that story with Kanda and Alma seems so sad, poor kids ;___;

So shocked over the suddenly return of this manga O_O

But with every event  moving this fast and by the fact that it got changed to SQ makes it really feel like he is just in haste to finish the whole thing T_________T

The whole Kanda, Alma and Noah thing, it is just too much in one sweap. And I guess that my biggest fear is that there will be no time to tell more about Lavi T_T



So even though I'm really happy that it is publishing again, I rather wait another year for it to go back to it's former state, than just a quick ending *sob*

Ariana said:
Also note that Lavi, Komui, or Bookman aren't around much atm either and they're male characters. >_>

THAT'S FUCKING RIGHT!

where is Lavi, Lavi whose got ONLY ONE, small fight on Ark, when the rest had a great beattles?

and Bookman, this old and clever grandpa.

Komui... poor chief D:

I really miss them.

I like Hoshino's new style. At least Kanda doesn't look like a girl

he's looking MORE AND MORE like a girl.
