>>269755264>>269755289>>269755307>>269755330>Absolutely bodies and mogs Hym.>"heh you were awesome Hym"HUNKle is off to a good start.
>>269755426>Yeah Popp is pretty as strong now.>I now have to put in some effort to kick his ass.
>>269755683I've seen that first panel as a reaction image.
>>269755546>>269755622Hyunkel...
>>269755264>>269755289>>269755307>>269755330MY HERO, GETTING THE JOB DONE IN 4 PAGES
>>269755758Hym hasn't heard the bell ring yet. He's still in this.
>>269755456>>269755490>>269755511>>269755546>>269755562>>269755591>>269755622>whoa maam you worried about Popp?>Wow you must really love Popp.>Yeah it's completely different then what you feel for me?>do you have any sorts of positive feelings towards popp?>Yeah then you must REALLY be in love with him>you must go to him now and tell him how you feel about him maam!Based HUNK being the ultimate wingman and gaslighting your bro's crush into loving him.I know this supposed to be Hyunckle helping Maam sort out her feelings, but with how dense and retarded Maam has been acting I can't help but read it as him gaslighting here into liking popp since his heart belongs to JUSTICE and the way of the WARRIOR and Lahart
>>269755622Based Hyunkel knowing Maam a shit and throwing the problem somewhere else away from him.
>>269755683>>269755719I love how everyone ends up acknowledging Pop and becomes scared shitless of him to the point some even consider him more dangerous than even Dai.
>>269756108Not quite, buster.
>>269756294MY HERO
>>269756294Great, the translator took out all the punch of this moment
>>269756325So, is customizing your spells the peak of magic in Dragon Quest? Making them become pin-point or "spread"?Like, like you have things like this and Vearn's Kaiser Phoenix that's just a Merazone but fancy shaped.
>>269756410Medroa is basically casting two spells at the same time and mixing them, so probably
The contrast between this fight and Maam vs Albinass in terms of interactions is absolutely hilarious.
>>269756294DAIMADOUSHI, POPP-SAMA
>>269755264And we start with Hyunkel mogging the shit out of some fodder. That's our HUNK for you.
>>269755307>>269755330That ended quickly.
>>269755683>>269755719>>269755945IIRC Kamen Rider Agito gave a moment like this to G3, the secondary Rider who fights gods while being a random human cop (he doesn't even transform, the force has a crude suit of armour for him that he physically puts on).
>>269756741>>269756780>>269756816FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
>>269755490Marm, Popp is AT LEAST as strong as Hyunkel, arguably moreso. He's not some fucking baby who needs the rest of the party to hard-carry him.
>>269755622Man, poor Hyunkel. He's almost as hard on himself as Popp is.
>>269755719>just an ordinary humanThose words always confirm whoever you're talking with is some kind of monster beyond men.
>>269755777Love villains who respect the heroes.
>>269755719>>269756926
>>269755937I want Popp to extend his "black rod" at me if you get what I'm saying.
>>269756062NANI
>>269756997Merle's ghost...
>>269756294I KNEEL
>>269756926When you think about it Pop's growth is absolutely monstrous. It's even bigger than Dai's considering he's just a pure human while Dai has Dragon Knight hax.And unlike Hyunkel, who for example did the thing with Myst to get himself a buff just now, Pop's growth was through nothing but pure training. There was no "potential unlock" or getting a super mode or anything like that either.Like, in one single year he went up and surpassed Matoriv who's been at it for decades and with one foot on the grave from old age too.
>>269756354>where did you gain the power to regenerate pulped organs and bones?>just nowLmao
>>269757075God, I fucking hate Maam so fucking much.
So we all ship Pop with Merle, right?
>>269756816GODDAMN!
>>269756548One was the most dirty disrespectful battle we've had in a while. And the other is a match between two people who view themselves as equals and both honor the others ideals and determination. It's always nice to have that contrast amongst the bad guys.
>>269756571Popp knows he's doomed to the tsundere life.
>>269756354>what the fuck, you were just tanking without healing before?!
>>269757196Yes, Maam a shit.
Okay, you all saw that oneHaven't had a mistake that big in a while
>>269757342She's too much of a loveslut, she's spreading that love everywhere, and doesn't have any more love for that one true love.
I get that they're just teenagers fighting a war vs a literal world ending threat, but for fuck sake I don't give a flying fuck about the romance here.
And now it's time for Maam to fake amnesia so she never has to do anything about Popp's loveWait, no, I'm thinking of someone else...
>>269757401>>269757434>>269757469You two are raising a dangerous flag.
>>269757469>Thank you for deciding to string me along, MaamGod Pop stop being so fucking retarded.
>>269757494Kek, Popp is closer to Gold than Ruby though.
>>269757494>>269757551I should really get some sleep... my reading comprehension got fucked real hard.
>>269756637Exploitable last panel.
>>269756741>>269756780>>269756816OUT FUCKING SKILLED
>>269757114Popp is quite literally the most ridiculous character in the manga and it shows.
>>269757131Dai, Leona, and Marm really did save our boy. He'd probably be like the Fake Heroes or worse otherwise.
>>269757196I ship him with both, but Merle is his first wife.
>>269757726Masopho helped too
>>269757318Little brotherzoning is always awful.
>>269757401Death flags are being raised. Again.
>>269757494>>269757529Maam is the one getting a taste of her own medicine now.
>>269757735Hadlar looks so much calmer and composed now.
>>269757869Popp, he'd get evaporated like a water droplet. The fuck do you expect him to do?
>>269758107Wholesome Dai.
>>269758174Hadlar's growth has to be the best part of this arc.
>>269758279That's a pretty neat way to decide a climatic battle.
>>269755562hyunckel trying to get bitches off his dick because his bf is coming home
>>269758435Popp is the ultimate bro.
>>269756062O MY DETACHABLE RIGHT HAND
>>269758465>>269758605>>269758691THREE AVAN STRASHES?!
>>269758373>>269758465>>269758497>>269758581>>269758605>>269758644>>269758666>>269758691https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jj6PPKcvu8whttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkGGA9vtYYMIt's also in Jump Force as a secret move (only Arrow and Break appear in Dai's moveset, but you can trigger a Cross if you connect them with the right timing)
>>269758839>It's also in Jump Force as a secret move (only Arrow and Break appear in Dai's moveset, but you can trigger a Cross if you connect them with the right timing)I'm a sucker for things like this.
>>269758883>but the enemy doesn't just stand stillBullshit, I like Dai too but Hadlar was too flabbergasted to even react.
>>269759095MY FUARKING HERO
>>269759152PAWN Warrior Hym, translator
>>269759095>>269759125BGM in this moment: "Hadlar: The Final Battle"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2DKBpzAzrQ
>>269756062You're right arm comes off?
>>269757318>I have to watch over you all the timethis was basically the same reason maam's mom got together with her dad, our boy is IN
>>269759380>Hyunckel: "...for you."
Wait didn't Dai use Gigadein before?
>>269758828Hadlar is fucking dead.
>>269758986Hadlar just refuses to go down.
>>269755236>>269755203yes grape the monk grill!!!>>269759622totally not super sayan demonlord.
Hadlar is such a fucking jobber.
>>269759152They may have been around for only a short time, but they were the best allies Hadlar has ever known.
>Had no Touki left>Nevermind lol still had enough for a StrashWhat asspull is this.
>>269759712>>269759759>>269759787>>269759885I love how they animated this in the animehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Www_z0e5v8
>>269759360PURE CINEMA
>>269759980>I just made it up lolThe absolute state of Hadlar.
>>269759763Shut up Kill-Vearn.
>>269759759>>269759787HOLY
>>269758839Inclusions like dai yugi and ryo saeba are the few truly kino things about jump force.
>>269759980Dai and Popp really are birds of a father.
>>269760085>>269760051ENTERMY HERO
>>269759939By far my favorite scene of the anime, i love that face of acceptance after his final attacks fails and knows he lost.
>>269760094*feather. Dragon Knight Popp though hmm...
>>269760115FUCK YOU KILL-VEARN
>>269760218Akchually the duel was already over so this is fair.
Done for todayCome back tomorrow to see the fight against Kill
>>269760324MY FUARKING HERO SAVES THE DAY YET AGAINHe's just as fucked as they are, isn't he?
>>269759334>HudlerHow?
>>269756765TADA NO NINGEN
>>269756912LOL at Sigma's last words. That being said, he was cool
God I have goosebumps this fight always gets my blood boiling its everything I love about shonen.
>>269757927>>269757951I love it when characters forgo weapons and abilities for good old fashioned hand to hand combat
>>269758839You know what, I'm glad Hero's Bond actually managed to reach the end of the story. That was an okay game.
>>269755810Medoroa?I fink this bloke meant frizz cracker.>>269755840Iora?I fink this bloke meant boom.>>269756141Ionazun?I fink this bloke meant kaboom.>>269756212Behoma?I fink this bloke meant fullheal.>>269756237Wiseman?I fink this bloke meant sage.>>269756540Io?I fink this bloke meant bang.>>269756912Begirama?I fink this bloke meant sizzle.>>269758311Raidein?I fink this bloke meant zapple.>>269759475Gigadein?I fink this bloke meant kazap.>>269759513Ruura?I fink this bloke meant zoom.>>269759822Gigabreak?I fink this bloke meant gigagash.
>>269760324Thanks OP.
>>269757196Of course. Merle is the best waifu from this manga.
>>269760218Fucking bastard.
>>269760270Fuck off Vearn.>>269760324THAT'S OUR HIGHEST MAGICIAN.Thanks OP.
>>269760529>spoilerThey're up against Kill-Vearn. Everyone is fucked.
>>269755622HUNKel needs no woman.
>>269758337Merle a cutie, as always.
>>269756548Writing good woman moments is definitely not one of Sanjo's greater points in this manga.
>>269760324Thanks OP.So, we're getting closer to "that moment".
>>269762625I guess that's why Merle's good. She's the only one not directly involved in the action.
>>269758986Something I like about Dai is that the fights feel gritty because the opponents will stop at fucking nothing and stop using their fancy moves when things get desperate.>>269762750It helps too that she's a direct parallel to Popp.
>>269758107Pretty cool to see an authot draw his old style without copy/pasting panels
reading the avan prequel along with this thread and it's nice that even there, hadlar still gets some nice character developments, although in reverse
>>269763696The writing consistency is great, and it's so nice to see the prequel showing us some of the events that we only saw a little of in the manga.
>>269763696I also liked how it gave a new perspective to this scene.
>>269763762
>>269763780You're talking about Kanon, right?
>>269763841>spoilerYeah
>>269763997Guess we now know why Popp couldn't make his mark shine without saying he loves Maam, huh?
>>269762146Doesn't this remind you of a similar situation?
>>269763745>writing consistencyyeah you can kinda already work it out in the main series only based on hadlar's creation (hyunckel's dad > flazzard > the chesspieces) but seeing how hadlar's development played out is great
>>269765577I noticed the French part of the manga showing what looked like a younger Hadlar too, and him being a fightfag is consistent with what we know.
>>269756294My hero is so handsome...
>>269757008>Popp's roblox shoulders
>>269757139She didn't do qnything wrong there though
>>269762115>>269762625>>269762750So what do anons here think about Leona? For me she's pretty helpful and cute.
>>269757196No, I ship Popp with the woman HE has had his eyes on the whole manga
>>269767068She has good moments in spite of her relative lack of screentime and her pardon of Hyunckel was awesome. Though that's kind of what makes Maam more shit in my opinion because Leona knows when to forgive and when things need to be done.
>>269757513>Stringing him alongWhat are you fuckin talking about?
>>269767004Kek can't unsee now
>>269760324Thank you for posting.
>>269760249>........ダイヤ・ナイン!!Um, translator?
>>269762170>THAT'S OUR HIGHEST MAGICIAN.The official translation of 大魔導士 didn't end up being "Archmage" like you'd expect, but "Grand Sorcerer".
>>269765577Getting to keep the same author but a new artist has been wonderful. I think I mentioned it last thread but its the Zipman artist who not only is talented but seems to have immense respect for the source material himself.
>>269769215Neat.
>>269773357>>269773475>>269773523Maam inherites her giga denseness from her dad
>>269760529Don't worry. He'll do fine.
