Eldo: there is a reason why I stay out of anime/manga channels on IRC. The average age is 14 with a similiar IQ.

Now stop asking me about release dates, god, people has been pestering me back and forth on IRC. I'm nearly going to put everyone on /ignore.

Why even bother with IRC

Annoying people in manga channels 99% of the time.

Anyway thanks for the update.

Was an op for #oldlinux, #newlinux, and #oldmemphis for the longest time on Undernet circa 1995-1999

I stayed away from efnet. Went on Dalnet a few times for Gor related chat.

I now spend most of my time on the #mindwerks channel on blitzed.org and on #gentoo-mips & #gentoo-dev on freenode.org as an op from 2002 and onward.

from 1999-2002 I stayed away from IRC entirely.

Haha we had some pretty major anime channel conflicts back then, people flooding or spying or whatever... doing all kinds of crazy dumb stuff. It was like the anime fan UN!

I like the chapter, but didn't you guys find the first three pages... a bit odd? Like they were drawn not by Miura? Looks like the whole prophecy thing was prepended by someone else. I must say was I relieved when the things returned to normal on page 4.

And, yeah, this is my first post here. Thanks for all your work guys!

to not answer your question, does anyone else think that zodd's remaining horn has gotten a lot bigger...

Post by **rince** » Fri Sep 08, 2006 8:31 pm

Yeah, I've noticed this too. On several pages both in chapter 277 and 278 it can be clearly seen that it's much bigger than the cutted one.

Think it's actually growing, or just a coincidence of how the author happened to draw it?

Post by **Dagda Mor** » Fri Sep 08, 2006 11:05 pm

No, I think it's pretty blatantly larger.

great. now we'll have unicorn Zod

Second question then becomes, if the horn growth is deliberate on the authors part, what do you think it means? Just that he hasn't trimmed his horn in a while, or that his power is growing, or what? Theories, anyone?

It struck me as being symbolic of how he's become greater thanks to his pledging allegiance to Griffith. He may have given something up, but he's become stronger for it.

I don't know what it means, but I definitley noticed that the remaining horn is noticeable larger than the stump of the one beside it during these most recent chapters.

It may be, in fact, just a method by which Miura is adjusting Zodd's design so that the remaining horn is more centered, and avoids throwing off the symmetry and balance of Zodd's head.

That's pretty clever... I don't know if it's what Miura's going for, but it's not a bad hypothesis.
