Today's V-Jump reveals feature new White/White Aura support for Ren from ARC-V manga.
The card slots take place in the usual slots reserved for animé characters, which means future sets will also feature manga Deck support (besides the ones we had for DM). This specific support is for the upcoming release of Ghotis to the OCG, but also because White monsters were based off an OCG-only Normal Monster, White Dolphin.
The new support makes "White Aura" into an official archetype.
***
There are 7 slots between White Aura Synchro, and Majespecter Xyz. There are two 2 cards between White Main Deck monsters, and Yubel Main Deck support, and 2 Spell cards between White Spell, and Yubel's spells. So the next animé/manga theme will likely have 4 cards at least.
Edit:
The translations are here.

Performapal Classikuriboh
Kuriboh has graduated music school and become a conductor! And what a handsome little conductor he is. Just look at that fancy, embroidered jacket! The fluffy collar really sells the look for me, and then of course there's his cute little bowtie and buttons!! Idk how those buttons are staying on, but they help complete the look (plus, look how shiny they are!). I also really like how the starry, green background compliments the green of Kuriboh's hands and eyes. A very fun and bright choice of background.
Rating: 10/10, One Classy Kuriboh

It amazes me how much Zoro fans are willing to defend Zoro’s “6-month long” fight with Lucci. Whereas when it comes to Usopp’s “10 years of uselessness” they’re just quick to not consider that not much time has actually passed in the OP world. So, I guess Zoro’s given more grace since he’s the second main character of One Piece. And the “not much time has passed in the OP world” reasoning is only justifiable when it comes to him.
Got it.

The copies of the Arc-V manga I got from my local library had the last page missing. I like the idea that someone had such visceral rage about that one terrible panel that they physically ripped it out of the book. It’s honestly a better story without the last page, so, hurray for me I guess.

i’ve stopped expecting interesting animation from bones. the star and stripe fight is cool but like every other fight/moment in mha, it’s only cool bc the source material itself is cool; bones does nothing to elevate the manga
they rarely try to experiment with colour and style. i saw so many colourings of the moment star and stripe made a giant version of herself out of the air; people made her look like a cosmos, like it reflected and bent the sky around her, doing so many inventive things and for the anime to just make her an outline against that godforsaken sky? i’m disappointed
but people will take me saying i’m disappointed and spin it to me saying the fight was bad. it wasn’t, just like most fights and moments in the anime aren’t bad but that’s all bc horikoshi knows how to draw. they never do anything beyond that; they never try and adapt it. whether it’s bc of time, direction, budget, or what have you, they will never do something truly inventive with their colouring
i’ve said this before and i’ll say it again, it’s not just that the sky is blue; it’s what the blue sky represents and that is an unwillingness to broaden their colour palette or atmosphere to support the changes in the tone of the story. the story isn’t just “will midoriya get into his dream high school and achieve his dream job?” it’s child abuse and societal systems and their dysfunctions, it’s racism and morality and is it right to try and save someone who’s determined to destroy the world just bc they are also a victim?
look at the finale of atla, a show that mirrors the narrative tone of mha; it starts out bright and colourful and vibrant to match the happy and small stakes nature of the story and as the tone of the story changes, the environment changes to reflect that. the siege of the north pole? everything goes blood red when the moon spirit is threatened, then goes completely desaturated when it is killed with only fire bending having any colour. the day of black sun? uses a solar eclipse to change the lighting. the entire sozin’s comet fight? has red skies and lighting to show the threat
bones abject refusal to change anything about the art itself is a detriment to horikoshi’s complex narrative
