It’s been announced last month Air Gear manga creator Oh! great (Ōgure Ito) is launching a new series. Yesterday, the first two chapters were released in the January 2013 issue of Shueisha’s Ultra Jump magazine.
Entitled Biorg Trinity, the new manga is based on the original work by novel author Ōtarō Maijō. It tells a pop love story about high school students. It’s set in the near future.
Biorg Trinity is featured on the cover of the magazine:
I’m a high school student. I lead a simple and peaceful life. One day, a biological explosion occurred suddenly, and there appeared a heart-shaped hole on the palms of my hands…!?
According to the 2013 combined 4th/5th issue of Shogakukan’s Weekly Shounen Sunday magazine, a new Hayate the Combat Butler TV anime series has been green-lit for production. The new anime will air next spring on Tokyo TV. And it seems to inherit the character design and story line of the Hayate the Combat Butler: Can’t Take My Eyes Off You anime.
Hayate the Combat Butler is a manga series written and illustrated by Kenjiro Hata. The series follows a 16 years old boy named Hayate Ayasaki who serves as a butler, bodyguard, confidante, and more to a girl named Nagi Sanzenin to pay off a huge debt due to his irresponsible parents.
The original Hayate the Combat Butler manga already inspired two TV anime series. The first one aired between 2007 and 2008 with the second one following shortly in 2009. 2012’s Hayate the Combat Butler: Can’t take My Eyes Off You was not directly based on existing material from the original manga. It tells a new story that is original to the anime. However, the story concept was created exclusively by the original author Kenjiro Hata.

Naruto 614 – To You
Though Choji tries to console his best friend, Shikamaru reminds him and Ino that they were in the middle of war and that there was no time for unnecessary conversation, and that they had to carry out his father’s strategy. Confused, Naruto begins to question the situation, but before they can explain that Inoichi and Shikaku had been killed, the Ten-Tails attacks once more. Leaping into action, Neji and Hiashi are able to deflect the beast’s attack, and as everyone begins to praise the Hyūga clan, Hiashi tells Naruto that he had to focus and that in war people might die, but if they lost the war, everyone would die.
As he assures them that Inoichi and Shikaku were proud as shinobi to have died before their children, Neji echoes his uncle’s sentiments, referring to his own father’s sacrifice. With this Neji, Hiashi, and Hinata declare that they would protect him until the very end. Meanwhile atop the Ten-Tails, Madara and Obito discuss how to proceed with their plans and the fact that in order to become the beast’s jinchūriki, Madara required a living body which could only be given by Obito sacrificing his own, which left the legendary Uchiha, at the mercy of his descendant. With Obito deciding to teach the Allied Shinobi Forces despair, the beast begins to attack again, sending wooden projectiles flying towards the shinobi. As the attacks are being deflected from Naruto by the Hyūga, Kitsuchi builds his chakra in preparation to use his signature technique. With the beast’s hand itself bearing down on the group, Hiashi uses the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Wall Palm to deflect it. The beast then uses a pin-point attack which Hiashi realises they could not deflect in time.
As Hinata throws out her arms to protect Naruto, Neji actually intercepts the attack, and while Naruto calls for the medics, Neji notes that it was already too late. As Hiashi looks on in horror and Hinata cries openly, Naruto questions why a genius from the Hyūga clan would throw away his life for him, and Neji, who notes that he finally understood his father’s feelings, states that it was for that exact reason that he did it: because Naruto called him a genius. With this, the juinjutsu on Neji’s forehead disappears as it seals away his Byakugan. Obito then taunts Naruto, questioning if it had not been him who stated that he would not let his friends die.

Bleach 521 – A Piggy Party
As they fall towards Kirio Hikifune’s palace, Renji and Ichigo squabble over which of them will break the other’s fall. They discover that Kon had hidden himself in Ichigo’s robes and use him to cushion their landing.
After Kirio greets them, she prepares a banquet for them to feast upon. While Ichigo initially thinks that there will be a catch to being fed, Kirio notes that being around Kisuke Urahara has made him overly suspicious. While she goes to make dessert, Renji, Ichigo and Kon dine. Ichigo wonders if it is alright for them to be treated to hot springs and feasts while those in Seireitei prepare for battle, but Renji reassures him that they need to be fully recovered before they can train hard.
Kirio returns with the dessert, having become much slimmer, leaving the trio bewildered. She explains that when she cooks, she uses up her reiatsu and thus she tries to put on as much weight as possible to counter the weight loss that results from cooking.
Kirio tells them that the Royal Guard members have all contributed something significant to the history of Soul Society as recognized by the Soul King. Kirio is responsible for the creation of Artificial Souls and she used the same principals to strengthen their reiatsu via their food. She then warns them that in the next palace they will meet Oetsu Nimaiya, the man who made the Zanpakuto.

Mirajane asks Loke how he arrived, to which he explains that he simply jumped down. Noting the case of how Arcadios survived being in the lava, Loke suggests that it was his jade amulet which protected him as it can act as a talisman, causing Wendy to remember the Jade Dragon. Yukino also notes that the princess is named Hisui which means jade as well, with Lucy and Carla adding that they need to meet her and decide for themselves if Eclipse is right or not. As Natsu gets angry over the princess being the one who threw them in Abyss Palace, the door in front opens and Natsu rolls on the floor towards it, coming close to a person wearing a hood. Looking up, Natsu asks who they are.
Inside the palace, Princess Hisui is informed that the Garou Knights were defeated by Fairy Tail, much to her hidden relief. Suddenly, Datong shows up, telling her not to carry such an expression. Startled, Hisui asks why he isn't at the Domus Flau, to which he says he returned because he felt there was trouble. As she questions why Arcadios was sent to Abyss Palace without a trial, Datong states he knows she used Fairy Tail to rescue him. Datong reveals he now knows Hisui was behind the Eclipse project and Arcadios took the fall for her. Telling her she should not proceed with her plan as it's too dangerous to change the world, Hisui counters him, stating that the world should be changed. Revealing that Eclipse has a phase 2; the real project, she proceeds to explain, stating without it, the country will be destroyed as soon as the next day comes in.
Back at the Domus Flau, Fairy Tail takes the lead after Gray's victory over Rufus, with Sabertooth and Lamia Scale close behind. As the team proceeds, Juvia is found by Chelia, just as Mavis predicted.

Elsewhere, Erza heads to another area, expecting to fight Minerva but much to her surprise, encounters Kagura instead, causing her to wonder how Mavis got it wrong as the two clash and begins to cry.

Suddenly, a wormhole opens between the two and hands reach out, covering their faces. Minerva materializes through the wormhole and attacks the two, wanting to join the battle, much to the surprise of everyone. While Mavis wonders how her prediction came wrong, the foremost female Mages in the tournament prepare for a three way battle.

One Piece 690 – SAD
Luffy continues his fight with Caesar Clown after punching him and leaving a deep imprint on his face. Caesar then tries again to flaunt his protection under Doflamingo in order to intimidate Luffy, but Luffy delivers another punch to Caesar’s face after dodging a surprise attack from Caesar Clown.
With five minutes left until Shinokuni fills up building B, the rest of the Straw Hats, as well as their allies, are hurrying toward building R, where the escape route off the island is located. Only Kinemon and Brook are going the opposite direction towards the gas because Kinemon heard from one of the children that his son got turned into a dragon and immediately thought that dragon he slew was his son. Usopp was the first to arrive in Building R but ends up in the secret room above the floor where the gas trap was prepared.
In the SAD room, Vergo has defeated Smoker because of his overuse of his smoke form. However, Smoker was really just distracting Vergo in order to allow Law to regain his heart. With Law’s heart back where it belongs, Law is ready to end the fight. Law then calls out to “Joker”, telling him that with Vergo defeated and Ceasar captured, all the SAD at his disposal will be gone and he will lose his position in the underground. Doflamingo then laughs, replying that Law’s fear of Vergo is still there, and that his Haki protects his whole body so that not even Law’s power can hope to cut him. Law then proves Doflamingo wrong by cutting a Haki-armored Vergo in half, along with the SAD chamber and the mountain it was built in. Law then states that the marines never challenged any of the big name pirates because they were preparing a new battle force. Law continues by saying that, like Doflamingo had said, a new unstoppable wave always marks the beginning of a new era, and that Law plans to destroy the cycle.

One Piece 689: An Island That Doesn't Seem to be There
Brownbeard arrives in front of Caesar Clown and demands him to tell him what happened to his men outside on the island before Shinokuni was released. Caesar merely shrugged and said he didn't receive their distress call, when in truth he did recieve it but left them to die outside. Angered by the callous disregard of the lives of his men, Brownbeard tried to reveal Caesar's true nature to the rest of the men protecting their 'generous' master, but Caesar secretly injected a muscle relaxant in Brownbeard making him spurt out gibberish and unable to stand. Now in control of the situation, Caesar whispered to Brownbeard that the poison gas incident was his doing. Brownbeard then furiously tried to attack Caesar, only to be shot down by the subordinates he swore to save. Feeling victorious, Caesar prepares to finish off Brownbeard when a giant Haki infused fist knocks him away. Luffy has arrived to finish the fight with Caesar. Caesar tells all his subordinates to head back up stairs and start the preperartions. Once all the subordinates are gone, Caesar warns Luffy that if he fights him, one of the Yonko as well as Doflamingo will hunt him down because the SAD that Caesar produces is used to turn his client's subordinates into Zoan fruit users and says Luffy will never defeat all of them.

Bleach 516 - The Squad Zero: http://www.mangahere.com/manga/bleach/v53/c516
Summary:
Ichigo is in Kurotsuchi's lab to see if his zanpukto can be fixed. Kurotsuchi explains that broken shikai can be regenerated by the owner pouring reiatsu into it, but as far as he knows damage to a bankai is permanent (except for Komamura's). Ikakku's bankai got fixed but it was weaker than before, and parts of Renji's blade still have damage from the battle against Byakuya. Out of the blue, Kon runs out in a muscular body and does random stuff before Kurotsuchi turns him off with a remote. Kurotsuchi then gets news and tells Ichigo to come with him to witness the arrival of the Zero Division.
Ichigo and the Gotei 13 captains gather outside of the Seireitei walls. A giant column suddenly drops out of the sky and hits the ground, and from the column steps out the five captains who make up the Zero Division. Even though the Zero Division has no soldiers, their might is supposedly more than all of Gotei 13 combined.

Bleach 515 - Relics: http://www.mangahere.com/manga/bleach/v53/c515
The 4th Division is struggling to find all the injured and take them to be treated. Isane Kotetsu notes that during the battle, no one was taken in, and wonders if they should have went into battle themselves. Captain Unohana chides her gently for letting her feelings get ahead of her, but asks her not to cry and reminds her that Yamamoto's final order was for them to remain in the building.
Ichigo, meanwhile, is told that a message from Urahara came in from Hueco Mundo stating that he, Chad and Orihime were safe at the time it was sent. The person who told him this promises to tell Ichigo if they can establish vocal contact, which Ichigo thanks him for. Meanwhile, Ikkaku is screaming to be released, clearly concerned about his captain and if he has died. Hanataro offers to heal Ichigo, but he states that he already got treatment, to which Hanataro argues that it is quite obvious he still needs to be healed. Then Shinji walks up to the Substitute and states he finished treating Renji and Rukia.
Shinji and Ichigo are told that the two Lieutenants are currently at stable conditions in the Intense Care Unit. Then Rukia wakes up and after pointing out that "stable" does not necessarily mean "alright," she thanks Ichigo for coming to protect Soul Society, to which Ichigo replies that he couldn't do anything. Shinji objects, stating Ichigo chased away the enemy leader and he should be more proud of himself. At this point, a messenger arrives to tell Ichigo that Captain Kurotsuchi wants to see him about his Zanpakutō. As Ichigo heads out, Shinji sighs that Ichigo's always thinking about others and never bothered to fully heal. Rukia suddenly asks why Ichigo seemed so sorrow, and the Captain replies Ichigo wasn't able to save anyone, instead having Tensa Zangetsu broken in half, so obviously he feels tired. Even so, Rukia disagrees, believing Ichigo is hiding a much more serious matter.
Inside the 1st division barracks, the remaining Captains (barring Unohana, Byakuya, Kenpachi, Kyoraku, and Kurotsuchi) are gathered before the remains of Ryūjin Jakka. Ukitake states that the body must have been destroyed by the enemy, to which all the Captains wear sorrowful or frustrated looks. A messenger arrives and reports that Byakuya and Kenpachi have survived, but they may never be able to return to being Captains again and possibly even wake up. Suì-Fēng suddenly loses control of her emotions and screams at him, asking what they have to hear next after the Captain-Commander died. The other Captains watch dejectedly as she screams at Kensei for being so calm because he hated Yamamoto. Kensei begins to get angered as well by this, but Komamura loses his cool as well and roars at her, asking if she thinks she is the only one who wants to scream. While Suì-Fēng is dumbfounded by his words, Kyoraku enters and asks for the fighting to end, noting that if Yamamoto was still here, they all "would've gotten a knuckle" from him. He continues that Yamamoto would call it shameful if he found them crying in front of relics, and when Suì-Fēng tries to interrupt, Kyoraku reminds them that the Gotei 13 were not created for the purpose of mourning the dead or a destroyed Soul Society. Instead, they were formed to protect it. All the captains are moved as he asks that they look forward as they are the Gotei 13.
Introduction of extinct animals in Cage of Eden manga
Pristichampus
Debut: Chapter 65
Pristichampus was an ancient crocodile that adapted to hunting on land. Its long legs made it agile on the ground, making it a ferocious predator that would chase down land mammals who would then become its prey. They can grew to approximately three metres in length.
Pristichampsus had heavily armoured skin, and long limbs suggesting a cursorial habitus. It also had hoof-like toes, suggesting that it lived more on land than in the water, and that it therefore probably hunted terrestrial mammals. Pristichampsus's teeth were ziphodont - laterally compressed, sharp, and with serrated edges. Due to their similarity to those of certain theropod dinosaurs they were initially mistaken for theropod teeth, leading paleontologists to believe that some non-avian dinosaurs survived the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction event.

Clairvoyance is a form of ability that is used to expand your senses in many ways. And so to gain information about an object, person, location orical event through means other than the known human senses, a form of extra-sensory perception. This ability have been only used by Seira.
By having full concentration the user has the ability to expand its senses and also to the transfer of information that is both contemporary to, and hidden from, the clairvoyant.

Special ability in Noblesse manhwa - High-Speed Regeneration
High-Speed Regeneration is a supplementary ability possessed by M-21. Yet, it is still unknown if other races have this kind of ability.
High-Speed Regeneration allows a person to recover from any damage that they sustain by causing them to heal at an increased rate, closing the wounds on their body and causing any limbs that they have lost to grow back.
While High-Speed Regeneration is indeed a powerful ability, it is not without its flaws. Despite the extent to which it can heal the body, internal organs such as the brain cannot be regenerated; if such irreparable damage is sustained, the rest of the body can continue to regenerate, though to no avail. In addition, if the body is damaged before it has the chance to heal, or if enough damage is inflicted on it at once, then it can be destroyed. It is shown that, after getting attack by the Nobles, who has usual imbued power, M-21 regeneration has slowed to a distant level.

<Extinct Animals in Cage of Eden>
Bos Primigenius
Debut: Chapter 47
Bos Primigenius was an ancestor of the present day cows or cattle. It lived in small herds on grassy plains or in the forests. It had a deep connection to humans, and you can also see them drawn on the walls of the lascaux caves in France.
Bos primigenius was a type of large wild cattle which inhabited Europe, Asia and North Africa, but is now extinct; it survived in Europe until 1627. Aurochs bulls are believed to have reached a height of 1.8 meters at the withers, and the cows to have been about 1.5 meters, displaying considerable sexual dimorphism.
The aurochs was regarded as a challenging hunting quarry animal, contributing to its extinction. The last recorded aurochs, a female, died in 1627 in the Jaktorów Forest, Poland, and her skull is now the property of the Livrustkammaren museum in Stockholm, Sweden.
Domestication of bovines occurred in several parts of the world but at roughly the same time, about 8,000 years ago, possibly all derived from the aurochs. In 1920, the Heck brothers, who were German biologists, attempted to recreate aurochs. The resulting cattle are known as Heck cattle or Reconstructed Aurochs, and number in the thousands in Europe today. However, they are genetically and physiologically distinct from aurochs. The Heck brothers' aurochs also have a pale yellow dorsal stripe, instead of white.
