Alright, it is Thursday and I am gonna post the seventh volume of MAO. Feel free to react or comment on any panel, though I appreciate if image replies are not used during the dump. Feel free to discuss anything related to MAO after the dump. In addition, as MAO is atypically plot-heavy as a Rumiko Takahashi manga, please be mindful of others and use spoilers tags when discussing things that are revealed later in chapters that have not been dumped.

MAO is Rumiko Takahashi's current ongoing series, a dark fantasy manga with a more serious tone than most of her other major series. I highly recommend it, as there genuinely is a lot of intrigue.

Previous thread: >>283589108

I will be using the official localization of the manga volumes by VIZ (despite my issues with it). Keep in mind that the nature of the writing in MAO and this localization in particular has resulted in some mistranslated lines. Be aware that some of the larger images may have been edited to be lower quality due to image size limits.

Togashi's work is just a spiteful, poorly-drawn and written edgier inverse of shonen like Dragon Ball (mostly) and JoJo and other stuff. His work is worthless and only has its status due to being parroted as the intellectual deconstructive piece in an infantile cliche genre for kids. Now, you could ask yourself when will these people grow the fuck up but the answer is never. Togashi is a degenerate, even for a mangaka, but he doesn't offset it by being talented or innovative. He just takes what others have created and originated and puts a "dark, edgy" and lame spin on them (which isn't even a spin, it's the tropes lifted but presented in an edgy fashion) which is about the worst kind of "Creator" (being generous here).
>>
>>283759432
Consider that the rewards of Greed Island are the collective effort of hundreds of nen users. If talented individuals can do amazing reality-breaking things with nen, then a collective large-scale undertaking like GI should produce nothing less than miracles.

You're a retard if you misunderstood that. of course cleaning once a day is required for cleanliness reasons. But there are people who think acne is brought on by bad hygiene and if they keep cleaning themselves many times a day then it will go away. That is false.

I'm inclined to believe this. I never went about cleaning my face more than wiping it dry after a shower all throughout my teen years and only had occasional acne issues

So I just finished the second part of the Orihara story. Didn't expect that it would turn into a cringe crime thriller shitpost trilogy. I'll post it later or tomorrow. I'd like to exercise a bit after sitting for hours after getting so absorbed in writing part 2. I'm also really hungry and dizzy now.
