The Shrine

So talking about a pointless finale where Panther and Team USA won anyway. I'm guessing the Team USA arc was started and then the author was told he'd have 2 months to finish this because nobody wants to read Eyeshield 21 anymore since only 2 out of the 5 Pentagram even did anything (Panther and Mr. Don). It's kind of funny how during the game Shin was like "Sena will now have to learn what it's like to face against someone who is faster than he is (Panther)" and I guess the lesson is you lose against someone who is faster than you. Of course it's pretty bogus why Panther would get stopped by anybody given he's practically invinicible in the world of Eyeshield 21.

Bleach - Nothing worth mentioning.
Naruto - Nothing worth mentioning.

One Piece - I don't like how the author just makes up random immunities when he feels like it. If wax counters poison then why not rubber? Then again people pointed out rubber can't stop 200 million volts of electricity either.

New Prince of Tennis - Always setting new highs (or perhaps lows) for the limit of stupidity, this month features a guy losing 0-7 in a tiebreaker (they started at the tieberaker) and then sweating like he's just played 2 full NBA games. Yes I know this is a guy known for having 'not much stamina' but it's just 7 points! I bet you can lose to any Tennis pro 0-7 without sweating much since it'll be over very quickly! Nioh faked an injury but then lost anyway. Such a shameful end for the guy responsible for the best fake rumors in Prince of Tennis.

Next month we have Yukimura versus Sanada, which should be interesting seeing if the man closest to God have power besides killing people by thought.

Azumanga Daioh - Some new short story arcs pop up in celebration of its 10th year anniversary. Like the original, this seems to be something that can go on forever if he wanted to. The author of Azumanga Daioh is very consistent at cranking stuff that is always very good, though this batch is slightly on the uncreative side, though that's probably partly because Osaka didn't seem to have much of an involvement, and she's obviously the series's source of humor.

Wax doesn't exactly counter poison per say, it's just that with wax in the way he doesn't have to directly touch the poison. From my understanding of the Warden's technique it's pretty potent/deadly stuff to anyone who it touches directly, it's a simple work around. Crocodile could probably do something similar with sand. And we don't know if the poison will also melt the wax.

As for the Lightning/Rubber thing, I'd be more upset about it if it wasn't so obvious from the very beginning they were going to end up there with Luffy/Enel, as soon as you found out he was a Logia user that uses Lighting attacks it became obvious that Luffy would have the upper-hand in that fight, even if isn't entirely realistic.

Well the whole thing about One Piece is that there is no consistency. I mean like you said he can easily say 'OMG sand protects you from poison' just as easily as he can say 'OMG poison melts sand'. I can see being rubber allows you to hit someone who is basically living lightning but I don't think it should've granted him complete immunity to electricity attacked. Enel was able to create heat with lightning too, so that could melt the rubber too.

It's somewhat similar to Bleach in that there are too many 'invinicible' abilities in One Piece so the way you counter them is pretty bogus. It makes you wonder why don't the Straw Hats just invest in the anti devil fruit stuff. I believe Smoker's sword is tipped with that stuff, so Zoro can just do the same, and Sanji can put some on some his boots.

I'm not really convinced that the author actually has the ability to handle what basically amounts to random invincibility. While having a good battle system isn't the key draw to OP, it's pretty hard to have something that involve fighting 24/7 and have to come up with bogus explanation each time why this invinicible doesn't beat that invinicible.

Unless they really jump the shark with it at some point I don't see it as being that big of a deal.

I mean are there THAT many examples in one Piece of x ability being useless against y ability?

It's bound to happen among certain types.

Besides, just because somebody has a "type advantage" doesn't mean they will win. I mean, geez, LOOK at the Enel/Luffy fight--Luffy had the absolute advantage of being immune to almost all of Enel's most powerful attacks, and that was STILL a hard-won fight--a fight where, after initial success, Luffy was temporarilly defeated by having a fucking BELL melted onto his ARM.

Really, considering how awesomely powerful the Logia fruits are in One Piece, it might be more fair to say that the "type advantages" are less advantages and more similar to just effective weapons. Without special measures/precautions/techniques, all Logia users are essentially invincible, which is why they are so deadly.

Har done, no immunity after all.

Logia devil fruits are the equivalent of winning the lottery. If you get one you're pretty much set for life.
