Chapter 187 Polls

[symbolism-egg.livejournal.com]

I created a couple polls concerning this latest chapter. There are spoilers, in case you haven't read it already.

This first poll was created all in good fun, and not out of malice.


[Poll #1446229]

And, because I'm genuinely curious:

[Poll #1446230]

Fist Poll - I'd say most of the above. Now, let us try to combine it properly into a title, shall we? Here goes..

Party Of Sheryl's Harem In Blindeningly Horrible Shirts Even Bishified Jasdevi Wear and Party Of Exorcists Who Screwed Istambul Failed To React To An Attack Because Of Mortification (Upon Shirts)And Hence So Much For Tokusa And Even Link Was Lost.

Alternative title: Watch Hoshino Fuck It Up =D Just because it about sums the title up. Yup <3

Do I even have to say that i voted "I hated it"? This title is not enough, I swear...

I was like: "OMG JASDEBI ♥ WAIT, WHAT ARE THEY CALLED? SO IT'S NOT JASDEBI? OH WAIT THEY HAVE NEW NAMES. WHAT. IS THAT TYKI? NO THAT'S TYKI? WHO IS THAT THEN?!"
I was so confused lmao

To be honest, most of the chapter just made me go "wait, whut, who the hell are they again? what's happening!? whaaaat?" because it sort of felt like a huge timeskip from where the last chapter left off and it was so confusing I gave up trying to understand it anymore. In that sense, most of the options for the first poll would be correct.

I'm glad that DGM has returned, but on the other hand I'm NOT glad at all that this chapter had so much gratituous "what the fuck?" so I voted 'mixed feelings'. =/

...Your title has everything! "Two Panels of Link" also applies.

I think the hatred was conveyed. XD

[mixtapehaven.livejournal.com]

I also vote your title.

[symbolism-egg.livejournal.com]

Yeah. XD

Haha, I loved the first image of Jasdevi, where they were holding hands. <3 They look so different, though, like emo J-rockers--and where are their pistols? ;A; I hope they get some dialogue, and that their freakish, angry adolescent personalities are intact....

Between the changes in old characters and the influx of new characters, there were a lot of "Who's that!?" moments. XD

First poll--"Two Panels of Lavi". Though I'm also quite fond of "Sheryl's Harem", "Screw Istanbul", "Did We Miss Something Here?", and "Who Cares, It's a Chapter."

Second poll--I'm not sure. It felt a little disappointing to me, but maybe that's just because I was waiting for it for so long, and after the announcement it was going to be 50 pages+color, I expected too much. x__-

[symbolism-egg.livejournal.com]

Yes, I felt that way too. The storyline skipped around a lot and didn't continue the Istanbul mission plot she was setting up before.

It looks as if a lot of people have mixed feelings.

[eevaleena.livejournal.com]

First one: "Did We Miss Something Here?" - When I saw the RAW, I was like, "HUH? Did I missed 1 or 2 chapter here?" But. NOOOOOOO!!!!

2nd one: "I have mixed feeling" - I'm glad that it's finally back, but feels like everything messed up.

[loliniii.livejournal.com]

First Poll:
Wait, whos that guy?

Haha. That doll reminds me of Emily from Pandora Hearts xD.

Second Poll:
I definitely had mixed feelings about just everything. =/.
I'm not to fond of Allens new eye.

[athuria.livejournal.com]

'Did we miss something here' pretty much sums up my feelings about this chapter. Our sudden loss of continuity is my biggest gripe.

And I admit, I didn't like this chapter much as all. I'm glad DGM is back and all, but this was a mess. :(

[after-gate-open.livejournal.com]

Haha thank you <3 *forgot to put commas in it but this way at least it conveys the wtfness better*

[symbolism-egg.livejournal.com]

Lavi's been a bit absent, hasn't he? There were also two panels of Link, though at least he's been active in the recent manga.

*nods* I was looking forward to 50 pages of DGM so much. I didn't expect perfection, but I certainly didn't expect this either. The spoilers seemed like fakes at first. XD

[after-gate-open.livejournal.com]

Lol it reminded someone of Emily too? XD That was my first thought when I saw it in the spoilers, orz

....Allen has a new eye? *feels like she has missed something*

[noirrac.livejournal.com]

I voted for NOAH'S REVENGE because the new popstar outfits were like... my biggest gripe. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, guys! And definitely don't break it either! Come on!

I'm confused about what happened to Jasdebi. Did they die and get reincarnated in that huge dude? Are they just trying a new look? WHAT?

[symbolism-egg.livejournal.com]

I hope there's a flashback to the intervening plot. But it seems like she's setting up for battles instead....

The manga's changed a lot recently, IMO, but in this chapter it barely felt like DGray at all. D: I'm going to keep reading, though.

[loliniii.livejournal.com]

Haha. Hmm...I love Emily...does Emily have competition now? =O. lol.

Haha, its just different looking now...and his scar is so faded =/.

See? =/.

[symbolism-egg.livejournal.com]

*nods* The plot-skipping was what stood out the most to me. Well, that, the Noah's outfits, and Tokusa's premature and grisly demise. But in terms of the storyline, the missing period is the worst of those three.

I agree. It's such a shame. :/

[symbolism-egg.livejournal.com]

The twins are still twins. *points at the two teens who are now angsty-looking* I loved the first shot of them holding hands... *_* I worry over how different they look now, though, since I want the same old twins.

They didn't die--the fanbook listed that they were alive, unlike Skinn.

[after-gate-open.livejournal.com]

Ehhh I only know her from my friend spazzing about her to me D: Dang I really have to finally get around to reading Pandora Hearts ><

I think it always looked like that, really... 8o If you mean the black whites and iris of - currently unknown - colour, then it was always like that wasn't it? When it activated at least. I do agree about the scar though, I mean, I absolutely hate the fact that it seems to be PURPLE now. I mean.. what the hell why is a scar PURPLE!? It was always red, now it makes him look even more like a zombie, combined with that slightly bulky style she uses now... like on the cover of the issue, it was posted in spoilers but is unavailable now... he looked like a zombie to me. o-o

[noirrac.livejournal.com]

oh OH!

OH SHIT!

I DIDN'T SEE THEM AT ALL WHAT THE HELL!

HAHAHA thanks for clearing that up for me, man! Jeez they sure do look GLAM.

[symbolism-egg.livejournal.com]

Turn on your Jasdevi radar? XD

No problem. Yeah, they should probably look more freakish. *loves those freaks*

[domlandbubbles.livejournal.com]

For the first poll it was: Whoah! Arrancar!
Then it was: AUGH! THE EARL'S HATLESS HEAD!
Then it was: Oh, yeah. Protagonists...
Then it was: Who are these guys again?
Then it was: THE EARL'S HUMAN FORM IS HOT.
Then it was: THE EARL IS RIPPING OFF XERXES BREAK WITH HIS LITTLE DOLLY.

[symbolism-egg.livejournal.com]

So many potential titles. XD I like "Oh, yeah. Protagonists..."

Hot? Really? *amazed*

[hey-kami-sama.livejournal.com]

When I read the chapter, I went "FINALLY Kanda!", so my vote goes for the "Kanda is in it" option. But, seriously, it should have been titled as EVERYTHING here. =__='
