Nanamine reveals his squad of 50 to his editor, and forces him to take the role as the 51st member of his advisory team.

I'm really curious as to how this arc will be resolved.

Now this is getting interesting. I somehow feel bad for Kosugi though...going to be like a doll around that faux guy (he's so false that I don't even know his name xD)...anyway, I'm really happy that Bakuman is continuing well and it seems that the end still isn't near...wonder what they'll do to make PCP better.

Hereeeeeeee weeeeee goooooo! The battle is on! Just like what I had hoped for. :D

Eiji has spoken~ Nanamine has no personality, no "face" in his works, because they aren't his but a collection of 50+ people's opinions. That's his downfall.

That editor was stupid, he should have put his foot down. Let's hope he smartens up and doesn't need Hattori or someone else to fix his mess.

I'm happy for Nanamine, he leveled up to lv 51!
He's still a loser in my eyes though. I wanna see him struggle and explode.

Nanamine is... i don't want to use word in my head in public.. but I really don't like him and feel bad for his editor .. Eiji was hilarious XD as usuall, he was right, Nanamine,s work don't have one face..but still "classroom of truth" was really good.
I want to see meeting between Eiji and Nanamine even more now.
Sorry for my English ^^' If you notice any mistakes, please tell me about it ^^ Thanks for corrections ^^

Arrogant guy is arrogant.... How could he... Oh my... I can't really really believe that he showed his Team of 50 to the real Editor.... Dammit... I wouldn't like to be on Kosugi's shoes... He needs to escape from there now! Not get involved in there and tip the others so they can destroy that bastard....

But here it is... Nanamine's demise is slowly creeping into him... A pair of really important person in Jump's set up know that something's not right with him and have concluded that Nanamine's works are faceless, that they lack of a style of its own... Yoshida-shi... and Niizuma... And I loved his opinion... Eiji can't be more right about Nanamine.... He's like the second Ashirogi Muto... But definitely lacks of a face, and the art is really good but that's it... I really loved the way he reacted and makes me more eager for their meeting... I wanna see how they react to each other... Me really wanna see that...

LOL at Shujin wanting to create a Variant Proper Battle Manga... I loved his poses and phrases... Seems like a good idea for a new manga... Create a manga based on characters... being the characters the proper thing for JUMP but everything else the Variant and do a Battle manga... me thinks that they're finally little by little becoming able to write a proper battle manga... Me wanna see the outcome of that already

Besides that, this chapter felt like a "Just as keikaku" one... Felt like I was reading Death Note once again... Didn't you feel that?

to put it bluntly .... Kosugi is getting trolled hard and there's nothing he can really do. I liked Eiji's thoughts though. still I can't think some of the other editors are going to realize something is up.

the art is good .... but the story just isn't right. surely just listening to internet opinion can't make a great series. I want to see Nanamine fail but if PCP gets knocked out cause of this and they have to make something better I'm all for it. I mean we haven't seen much of what PCP has been about for quite a while now.

I'm not really happy for him. However, I agree with the loser, struggle and explode part.

-

I don't think Kosugi truly meant he'd join Nanamine. Probably just putting up a façade. Maybe.

I loved Yoshida-shi and Eji's comments. Plus, I love Eiji's bizarre expression when giving he's opinion.

I wanna see MOAR Kazuya-chan and Yuritan~ <3
Ahh~ Bakuman Daisukii~

i feel bad for kosugi. i think he's hoping nanamine's chapter 2 and 3 to get not-so-good reviews...but i wonder if he'll really follow the brat if he gets good reviews.

i want nanamine to fail, and fail badly. i want to see him lose his cool and drop his act in front of everybody from the editorial department......

go ashirogi! only you can crush him!!!!! :D

i love this manga!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting. I want to see what Shujin comes up with next....and I can't wait to see Nanamine's downfall. :P I'm glad we finally got to see Eiji's opinion of the new author.

I just hope that Kosugi doesn't get dragged in so far that he feels the need to cover for that a**. I don't doubt for a second that he'd get fired if that happened and he really doesn't deserve it any more than he deserved to be saddled with that loser.

If that 50 people are so smart, why don't they try to be the editor themself, dumbass.. I'd like to pummel them onto the ground if they were real, it just pissed me off with their arrogant attitude, did their mama teach them the damn fucking basic manners? If they don't, I would be glad to be the one teaching them..

Eiji's amazing as always. That editor Kosugi sure is pathetic. He's unlucky after all. I like how Hattori also feels that something is off. Nanamine should drop dead.

Nanamine's team is a bunch of assholes, but I honestly don't see how what he's doing is bad. I think it's really smart of him to try out a different method like this. He even said he'd go back to the traditional way if he doesn't get good results.

Seriously, how is creating good manga "evil" at all?

Nanamine is an asshole, sure, but Kosugi is worse. Well, not an asshole, but infuriating. How is he letting his writer manipulating him like that? Kosugi has been there for around 3 months and he already lets a threat such as "you'll be fired if you don't get results after 3 years" affect him. Everyone around him has said him that the first year is basically learning and doing nothing important.

I don't understand what Kosugi had to lose if he had just walked to his boss and ruin Nanamine's plan. If Nanamine had been called out for being a cheater, no other magazine would have hired him either. Kosugi is pretty new as an editor but still.

dunno who was stupider, or who got luck. nonamine just revealed his secret but kosugi didn't stand on himself, from one point - nonamine was stupid to reveal his "secret" before being serialized, but on the other hand if he had an editor like hattori or even miura he wouldn't get out of it. is shaming doesn't exist in bakuman world? you can just ruin nonamine name by revealing his method, but kosugi just fall out to his trap. so yeah, it's just might be nonamine is lucky and played his cards well, otherwise kosugi wouldn't let him continue publish in JUMP.

oh and eiji talking about he "can't see the author of the manga", i believe it's referring to those manga where you can see the author from their work, and nanamine's work doesn't have it.
