a good dose of coura right here
>>274867652Definitely feels like the author switched gears this chapter and is trying to cram in as much story as possible in the face of imminent cancellation.
>>274867916Don't talk like that.
>>274867926I don't want it to be true either but you can't deny the pacing suddenly went from 0 to 100 between chapters.
>>274867652Are you dumping OP? I can do it.
>>274868068Dumping the chapter anyway.
>>274867916>>274868008Not really. The last chapters were the "end of part 1" so to say, with the promise of new developments. These are the new developments.
End of chapter.
>>274868404Zoe is growing so beautifully...
>>274867916Are you saying that because of >>274869006 ? I don't think it's such a change of pace, the author already made a foreshadow when Lucas got the bicycle and i don't think it's such a stretch the higher-ups would want to talk with Lucas when he knows about them, just didn't expect them to be chilling
>>274868554>converting to a religion that demand human sacrificesWhy?
>>274868614>the eyes of an addictPlease, please don't... let my boy think his power is really just to make beautiful light for a little while longer...
>>274868630NOOOOOOOOO>>274868672>ramus spyThere should be more of them.
>>274868726>middle-managementThe pope keep becoming easier to hate.
>>274868740I've been wondering, if it really only appears to be wood branches, shouldn't there be a way to make fakes?Hell, shouldn't the towers have that ability?If only to protect their own ramus.
>>274868765It's not a date, you psycho.
>>274868886Shit, I may not like him, but if he disappears, everything will be harder for Lucas.There's also the possibility that his boss will send a replacement who won't be as understanding.
>>274868765The art seems a bit worse this chapters.Also looks like Coura's eyes were made larger to make her look cuter, I think it's a bad choice as it removes some of her psycho appeal.
>>274867916>>274868990There's new developments and there's speedrunning through developments. It's not badly managed but in a single chapter:- We get introduced to the Imperial equivalent of the Pope, set up her relationship with the Garland and Akira and we follow the Clone soldiers' story;- Sudden attack from the Krauts that gets resolved in an extremely fast narrative sequence;- Introduction of an infiltrator Ramus;- Introduction of a new unit for Lucas;- The Pope gives everyone a new mission and explains that he's not really in charge but his bosses are up and running and not simply patterns in the tower or something;- Infiltrator Ramus escapes and becomes a thing;- Lucas gets called to the real bosses village that exists just because;- I forgot, we discover that the Imperial religion is winning the kulturkampf;It's not badly managed per se, but a couple of those developments could have filled an entire chapter in the past and be given space to breathe. There's a definitive feeling that the author wants to hit all the story beats he needs to, rushing towards something, be it the conclusion or parts he wants to develop more. It's a pity, because each chapter is a joy to read through, mostly thanks to the small things and details.
>>274869006I wonder if it's going to be EDF-tier of time travel war.
>>274868142>>274868127>obvious parallels between Zoe and KayanoThey will fight in the end.
>fucking atrocious AI upscale that destroyed the scans and turned them into a blurry messWho did this? I want to punch the faggot into the teeth
>>274867916>>274869293Yeah, I'm feeling that. I'm hoping it's just because this is the first chapter I'm reading live, but god damn, this seems dense and rushed as shit.
>>274869393Kayano can't even fight, she can only drop meteors which take an extremely long time to actually landI don't think she's a physical freak with infinite regen like Akira is and I doubt even flowering would help her not get instantly decimated by Zoe
>>274869467The usual.
>>274869467also>removing sound effects AGAINJesus fucking christ, can this manga take a break from the retarded scanlators...
So between the Pope and the reveal of the Empress it definitely seems like their whole gimmick is to take on the appearances of dead people in the same way they make the copies like Mirrors kid.
>>274869531I wonder what's the train of thought that lead to that.
>>274869467Seriously look at this shit, it's fucking comically bad
>>274869554Dammit, I just noticed it.
>>274867652Bugle thread!!!
>>274869467>>274869513>>274869554I told you motherfuckers this MTL garbage was bad news. Still gonna whinge about Wizards changing some dialogue?
>>274868740>>274868765I adore Coura way too much>>274869279Her eyes are sometimes bigger if you reread her previous chapters. Depends on the expression the author is going for. She also has big eyes in the last chapter for example
>>274869293I think it’s because the last chapter was supposed to be the ending of part 1 so to speak, and this one comes after a clear timeskip where the authors are telling us the new developments and what the new arc will be about so we can see what stage the war is in now. Shame you found it to be rushed. I personally didn’t mind. I feel like timeskips like this can be useful.
>>274869554>>274869588Sad. I tried to make a thread with the raws but Book Walker’s shit is too hard to extract them from…
>>274868923Eww.>>274869293Poppy's missing too.
>>274869225Imagine finally getting to share your tastes with someone after knowing everyone dislikes you for them.
>>274869916There's programs that let you download images from sites that try to stop you from doing so. Try those.
>>274869698What the MTL have to do with this?
>>274869554Can you post the raws? I suspect this atrocity might be why I felt that the art was subpar.
>>274869531Literally every person the Pope has taken the appearance of so far was already dead by the time we saw them use that appearance. And that the Empress is not actually Akira's wife but merely using his wife's appearance. Plus we know they can use the recorded data of dead people stored in the trees to make copies of them out of branches like what's-his-name's sister or Mirrors child. Plus we know from Akira that the future people living in the past are downloading themselves into tree bodies that disguise as human. Logic follows that people like the Pope and Empress who have tower "admin privileges" that allow them to download peoples data into tree bodies, can do so for their own tree bodies.
>>274869968If you want the raw,it's not different though the guy that typeset didn't scanlate ithttps://jmanga.sh/read/%E6%88%A6%E5%A5%8F%E6%95%99%E5%AE%A4/ja/chapter-30-raw/
>>274869698The MTL guy BOUGHT the chapter this time.
>>274869968This is me taking a screenshot from my Book Walker copy...
>>274870059Looks the same to me, the artist got caught lacking.
>>274870074It was probably rushed so he overlook stuff like this
>>274870044Yeah, I know, and then upscalled them. ...right? Or am I jumping to conclusions here?
>>274869293I think it's definitely going for a "narrate all new developments that happened during the timeskip and establish the new paradigm of the conflict" type chapter. Makes sense when you read the closing words of the previous chapter.
>>274870102To me they're definitely upscaled. >>274870059does not look like this.
>>274870102Let's ask the other guy that bought it. >>274870059Did it get upscaled or does it look the same to you?
>>274870121That's a screenshot.
>>274869550They might not have a real body + 1000 years of dealing with humans being shit could definitely make you want to RP as your strongest asset's wives or mothers
>>274870140Yeah and >>274869554 looks like an upscaled screenshot if you look around Lucas' face.
>>274869698Wizard's problem is that they're slow as shit, I'm expecting their chapter 30 release in May.
>>274870160Lucas face is still retarded in both, if it's upscaled then it was bookwalker doing, only if someone got a psychical to be sure
>>274867652https://www.linternaute.com/livre/mangas/4630251-rencontre-avec-les-createurs-de-the-bugle-call-future-reference-de-la-dark-fantasy/I found this cute interview a few days ago. Some things from it from memory.>They mention the Sora no Woto inspiration again>They say they have an ending in mind even if everything isn't set in stone (great sign in my opinion)>The writer loves Zoe and Mirror the most, the artist Miura and Coura.>They were both salarymen friends who started making manga together. They made some one shots and this is their first manga.
I might spent the time moving the dialog to normal scans but idk, we'll see. There's no rush I guess.
>>274868570>Taking all the best girls
>>274870234>>The writer loves Zoe and Mirror the most, the artist Miura and Coura.So that means happy ending for Zoe right? RIGHT?>Mozuku Sora : Yes, absolutely (laughs). It's because sound doesn't pass through the vacuum that makes up space. Otherwise I would probably have set my story in a science fiction universe. But the basis of The Bugle Call is the bugle. It's the main key.Just make it into magic sound man...
>>274868106child bringing home straydog energy
>>274870349>So that means happy ending for Zoe right? RIGHT?I just need my Coura happy ending. You can see it in this chapter. She is just ecstatic that she gets to share her cute torture sessions that everyone hates her for. She can't be this cute.>Just make it into magic sound man...Pretty sure that entire part was a joke but yeah. It was a nice interview honestly. The Sora no Woto influence makes me imagine Lucas playing Amazing Grace during his concert.
Okay, moving the translation to normal scans. This will take a while but at least we'll have a salvaged chapter by the end of this thread.Page 01

I was struggling so much without anyone to talk about it with!>>274867652>>274868142To keep the discussion going… the Emperor saying the Garland will eventually be the new Emperor is a bit weird. These have supposedly been around for 1000 years so they have to have outlived the rejuvenation of the Towers by embedding new Rami in them. I wonder why she would lie like that, or what’s up with that. I guess it could be simple and be just to have a way to convince her to become part of the Tower later on. Anyways to me this is all building up to Kayano betraying the Empire

Coura on front page!
>>274871858It's very evident in your comparison for me, it affects everything that is blurry in the original. Becomes less blurry but very telling of AI. AI has like a particular style I guess? Some of us are just good at spotting AI since its everywhere nowadays.

>>274871537So it was the boot vs the brits all along. Tricked by someone rotating the map sideways.
>>274872912We knew that it was Evrop for the longest time.
The battle at the start was weird. I wonder if that was an artistic choice or if the author rushed to the point. I feel like in the good old days this would have been 2 chapters worth of content. But maybe, since we're entering this new phase of the story, we're no longer gonna pay close attention to every skirmish like that.
>>274872103
>>274872840Could be a body hopper. And he turns into this: >>274872413 after he jumps bodies.
>>274873144Yeah. But also, I feel like that maybe the Emperor in disguise or something. Him and the Pope are basically just the branches.
>>274872413hey isn't that straight from chojin x?
>>274872413thats hot
>>274873116DELET, Coura is pure
>>274873358pure sexo
>>274873305Probably inspired by stuff like this instead >>274871763
>>274871858The tones (or whatever you call them) used on the chainmail are a big giveaway since the AI can't preserve the detail. The centre facsimile's face is also really obvious. His skin looks way cleaner and again the tones in all the nooks and crannies of his face are practically wiped off and the lines of his face look like someone just took a marker and wrote over them.
>>274869487She already flowered. Her conventional ability was probably light telekinesis, that evolved into being able to pull down even asteroids. Akira probably sought her out as an infant/young child specifically because of that.
Poppy is the traitor, right?
>>274867916>>274869293This. Art is very noticeably rushed too
>>274868404>>274868418Still not healed yet.
>>274873501>>274871858
>>274873556It's not.>>274870428
>>274873595i think i might be color blind or something
>>274868854>>274868865>>274868886Really should have expected this.Not having a powerful Ramus in the room with the suspicious prisoner is begging for this exact scenario.
>>274873764Should have gotten to work with Coura instantly. Lucas' bad for not listening to his menhera.
Demi best grill.
>>274873804I thought Demi was a guy for the longest time.
>>274870234That writer is a chad.
>>274873501Should use ESRGAN if he absolutely has to upscale.
>>274873358Coura is fucked up enough to repeatedly exchange her hymen after every time she sluts around.
>>274873942That's good and all, but it's still gonna fuck up sooner or later. What I would have done is just de-noised the jpeg garbage which also "sharpens" it up a little bit, and left it as is. 1400 is a perfectly fine resolution. Fucking zoomers with their need for muh 4k.
>>2748741561400px is rather on the small side. I prefer at least 1600 or 2000. That being said, the bigger problem is the compression.
>>274874209Of course the bigger the better (natively), but 1400 is the lowest acceptable resolution where you still get most of the details, after that you start losing them. Which is why upscaling it is just silly, especially into that horrible mess.

>>274873540I suspect her heavily for the last couple of chapters.
>Pope is just a sararyman, there's a boss above himMy sides
>>274874941Yeah these last few chapters kinda hit the manga's mystery intrigue atmosphere.
>>274875105It was always going to be revealed eventually. I'm mostly interested in how Lucas is going to rebel since he clearly is.
>>274867652She looks very punchable.>>274868236Oh what the hell, mangakakalot was missing a BUNCH of pages when I read it there yesterday.
>>274875167It's not the fact that the cards got reveal, but, like mentioned, that certain elements got downgraded. The Pope is no longer this mysterious larger than life figure, but some jobber from the future.
>>274875233I understand. I’m honestly interested in seeing how his character develops and I can’t call it a downgrade until I see that. One thing this reveal can do is humanize him a bit and push him closer to Lucas; and their interactions have always been top notch. Seeing him eventually team up with Lucas to fuck the Tower people up would be amazing.
>>274874941Middle management-kun…
>>274875382I don't see that happening. For all the shit he's done he's definitely getting his potato punched in by Zoe.The way I see it, Luca will go against the future people and they will command the Pope to stop him.
>>274875556In my opinion either the Pope, Akira or the Emperor will rebel against the people from the future.
>>274875586Akira I can see, the authors are already planting the seed of remorse towards his character, though he will die trying to help Luca. The Pope is def going down. The Emperor is a wild card, we have to see what he's all about.
>>274875233>>274875382>this reveal can do is humanize him a bitYeah I thought the same thing as well. Knowing that he's not the top dog really puts a different perspective on his conversations with his counterpart from earlier in the manga. Knowing that he as well as those other leaders have been toiling away at this conflict for hundreds of years and that it's very likely to be a thankless task makes him a lot more sympathetic. It also kind of justifies him having his hands tied behind his back a bit and not being as helpful as he could to Lucas and co.I'm sure that when Lucas goes to talk to the Futurists, he'll ultimately end up hating them a lot more than he does the Pope.Also on the topic of the Futurists, I think it's a great worldbuilding detail that the people in power in the future have gone out of their way to make sure their ancestors survive to the future. There's no point in making sure you win the temporal proxy war if you aren't going to reap the benefits of it, after all.
>>274875747I'm not saying the Pope became a worse character after the reveal. I'm saying the story lost some of that intrigue and speculation now that he's just a salaryman from flour 3. I only picked up the manga because of the Pope so to me it's a bit disheartening. But I hope the story introduces some new intrigue beyond the scope of our immediate comprehension.
>>274874941can't wait for his spin-off where in real life he's a talentless loser but great at his job and his internal conflict about forcing Luca to do a job he hates despite having talent to do something else
Cute
>the manga introduces a cute and likeable romantic interest for MC with huge tits>anons are drawn towards a literal bdsm psychoThe Eto phenomenon
How the hell has the setting's conflict been going on for centuries with things only now progressing when there are a bunch of ramuses that can straight up single-handedly ignore infantry and destroy national supply chains?

>>274876273Coura is just perfect>>274876357We can lick each other's wounds and get worse but happier together>>274874016She could fuck with Zoe by passing on a broken hymen to her, but she's a very good girl so she won't.>>274876349Keep in mind that the Pope mentioned that he wants things to go along a preordained future so it wasn't on his interest to take out everyone else before. We don't exactly know what the other leaders want either.
>>274876273>with huge titsProof?
>>274871210It seems like they could have defeated the enemy army a lot more easily by just having Demi locate the enemy camp then having Demi + the telekinetic poison their foo and water supplies.

>>274876273They're both good. Both good. 30-something with the mentality of a elementary schooler and schizo psycho gf, both excellent picks for the MC. >>274876349I'll be blunt: I don't deny they probably planned it beforehand, but there's CLEARLY some hiccups in the worldbuilding there. At the beginning the merc company doesn't exactly know what Rami are and they're supposedly a secret weapon, but it's clear everyone outside the Papal States and the Papal military itself knows very well about them and entire countries are powered by Rami (Mirror or Clone, for example). I'm not shitting on the authors, but it's clear they shifted gears at some point on the relatively minor details.

>>274876571It's probably a virtual reality inside the tower, with the emulated consciousness of the rulers.
>>274868404She entered puberty?
>>274875167I assume these geezers are going to try and swap the current Pope for Lucas.
>>274876349Typically we can assume that there's a rough balance of power.Akira and the Garland are definite aberrations, though. But when you have both the Mirror and Skyfall balancing each other out than Gallia and whomever hires Skyfall can't conquer one another, for example, so they're balanced. We can assume that most extant nations are able to regularly produce at least one extremely strong Ramus at any given time. Or make an alliance with one otherwise. The Empire apparently is borderline collapsing, so they're breaking with conventional politics and blitzing the continent with their strongest Ramus/Tree Golem, and that conversely is inspiring the Pope to do the same. >>274876905Yeah, the first chapter definitely could have used a redo in hindsight. The interest should have been over what kind of Ramus Luca would be, rather than 'I wonder why he has some branches growing out his head?'
>>274877174Yes, but I would not wander to search for psychological age_regression tags around. I mean, there's a market for 30-year olds acting like little girls. >>274876927We all do.
When is she going to get shoes?
>>274869006>Suddenly time travel.It's gonna get canned is it?
>>274879147It was foreshadowed for who knows how long.
>>274877421but then again the future buildings look very rundown so maybe it's something different
>>274879043Man how is she gonna cope when the fog clears and she sees stuff like this for what it really is.
>>274879756Maybe pope will brainwash her and Lucas gets jealous when she stops cuddling with him
>>274879217>>274877421I think it's under like a dome that makes it invisible.
>>274872136Zoe is endlessly cute and precious. We must protect her at all costs.
>>274878184Isn't the Pope someone from the future who just resides in this body, making him immortal? Swapping him with Luca who is mortal dude would be a downgrade.
>>274880653They can probably give anyone an immortal tree body.
>>274880716Maybe. Isn't Akira like that?
A lot of cute Coura this chapter, I'm glad.
>>274882098We started with Zoe, moved into Demi and then onto Kora. Poppy next?Well, Zoe is the main grill anyhow.
>>274882098Yes and it was adorable how she wanted to do the "interrogation" with Lucas like a date. Imagine doing something like that with Coura. It'd be perfect. Have you ever cut yourself badly? It's so cute. I imagine doing something even more over the top with her would be even cuter.
>>274882374Poppy is clearly a traitor. Very convenient she was missing today when the prisoner escaped.
>>274882456I hope Luca has it in his heart to forgive her. She's been with us since day 1. If he gives her to Kora...
>>274874851Total Poppy death!
>>274882687
I asked around and it's definitely doing below 1k in sales. Maybe the english release will spread some awareness.
>>274883569That's actually depressing. I'll do my best to support it. Shame I'm saving money to move with my fiance and I need everything I can get but I'll do my best still.
>>274883652Drop your fiance
>>274883652Buying the japanese volumes is the best way to support it tho.
>>274883569Sales are terrible but way better than what they were at the start, plus it's now licensed in France, Italy, Taiwan, and I'm pretty sure I saw a Spanish release.
>>274883766Do licensors just pay a flat sum for the license upfront? If that's the case, those licenses could buy it some time
>>274883766Do you have the actual sales figures? I wasn't able to find any, just that it's below 1k.
>>274869006epstein island arc next
>>274883747Buying the Western versions has to be good enough
>>274884093Debatable.
>>274883882I'm beginning to think the rushed plot is a sign of the axe in this case, sadly. There's this:>>274864537
>>274884182>I'm beginning to think the rushed plot is a sign of the axe in this case, sadly. I-it's not rushed and it won't get axed! Everything will be alright! Everything will be alright...
>A second dump is going to ruin the thread!>Thread continues to be salesfags and doomers
>>274884182Hey it at least got in the top 400.But no actual sale numbers?
>>274884308>literally 5 posts about sales>after 100 posts of chapter discussionWhat the fuck do you even want?
>>274884308It's natural to be worried I think. But if the manga made it here and got licensed in English for this year then we're going to be okay.>>274884122I don't know much about this. Does it really help too little?>>274882605>If he gives her to Kora...Then he'll find out many many things about the conspiracy and have a fun date with her.
>>274884378
>>274884182So far, I wouldn't call it being rushed. We just entered the new phase, new part. Naturally, there are a lot of happenings. We'll see how it goes for the next couple of chapters.
>>274884392>But if the manga made it here and got licensed in English for this year then we're going to be okayEnglish and other countries too. It's gotta be safe for at least 1 volume.
>>274867916When I looked at the last dozen or so cancellations in jump square, if anything the magazine tends to have an even quicker average turnover time for series. That is if 5ish volumes is average for an axed series to get as the magazine spins up a replacement, square tends to get things out of there closer to 4 volumes. Since this has made it through the magazines typical 'you aren't getting more serialization' window I think getting the whole 'look you're done in 2 or 3 volumes we're getting a new series'' axe looks less likely to me.
>>274884392>I don't know much about this. Does it really help too little?Who knows where are your money actually going with english volumes, you can't check. Buying the japs volumes you at least know for sure.
>>274885893What numbers/rankings other SQ series are pulling?
>>274884308I don't even like the word doomer but those people are the types that revel in the supposed coming bad news or bad news that have already happened. No one here is trolling or eagerly awaiting the axe. People being honestly concerned about the future of something are antithetical to doom.
>>274885454When she sees my magnum dong
>>274885454>You made me bleed my own blood...!
Where is the mask?
>>274887574So with the Empress reveal I'm pretty sure the reason his whole backstory for why he became the Joker is:>Comes to the past>Fall in love with and marries woman from the past>For extra "Too pure for this heartless world" sympathy points, she's a wheelchair bound cripple who probably even coughed up blood at dramatic moments.>She gets killed, probably by some past people to explain his whole rant to Lucas that past people are just violent animals.>He's doubly pissed because his boss is using his dead wife's appearance.
>>274885893I too think that if it got to volume 10 it should be relatively safe. I don't really know of a series that was considered flop and was allowed to go past 5 volumes. I mean it wasn't selling before so if they allowed it to get to volume 10 they either see something in it or it sells enough for them. Has anyone checked the volume price? Maybe they're more expensive.
>>274888145Price of 550~600 yen depending on the volume, seems pretty average for a monthly.
>>274888078I doubt it's anything like that. He referred to himself as a soldier. Also wouldn't explain why he lets his daughter cut peoples heads off.
>>274888415Then idk man, it's a mystery. Maybe people from the future sent this manga to this time to warn us about something.
>>274888690Kino...
>>274888145It varies based on how competitive the magazine is which is why I looked specifically at jump square and what they tend to do.There are mags where I've seen axed stuff make it to 7 or 8 tanks fairly consistently but this isn't one.
I didn't even know but Bugle Call is actually on Jump+https://shonenjumpplus.com/episode/14079602755249272339First 10 chapters are free in celebration of the new volume. Hopefully it'll attract some people.
>>274867916is this actually on the chopping block or this just a shitpost? i really hope not i'm still mad about cosmic censorship
>>274889501read the last 30 posts or so where we go over it in great detail
>>274888888>those numbers
>>274873501>>274873942Problem is the popular image upscalers treat screentones as noise to be removed. Even the properly trained upscalers have a hard time deciding if you want something to be a screentone or a solid color. These ones look decent for preserving screentones, but notice how the overall image brightens.https://openmodeldb.info/models/4x-wtp-manga-p-omnihttps://openmodeldb.info/models/4x-eula-digimanga-bw-v2-nc1https://openmodeldb.info/models/2x-MangaScaleV3 Some people try to remove the screentones entirely and recreate them when upscaling which probably has more consistent results.https://openmodeldb.info/models/1x-wtp-descreentone-compacthttps://openmodeldb.info/models/2x-Manga-Ora

>>274896028Pope...
>>274896028Women are more than their face + he's got a pretty face. He's a thing to look at, that's what he is. He admirable. Grab 'im by his cheeks, lay 'im on his back.
>>274895958Lucas is Miquella and Coura is his Leda
>>274896128
>>274895958>Kayano
>>274868092I'm worried for Zoe, bros
>>274868142don't they want to feed Kayano to the tower or something?
>>274871210Poppy!
>>274896868that's the last resort, they'll try to grab Lucas or Zoe first.
>Zoe growing up too quickly>won't be able to fight properly anymoreI'm scared
>>274869554so it turns out it's not the upscaling but the artist drew it that way, what a fucking clown
>>274870044I can't speak for the quality of the MTL, but at least it's a fast release. My train thought is if the author/artist duo can release chapters monthly, there's no way the 10+ members at Wizard take a month to translate the chapter too.
>>274896868>>274897484Yeah I think we're going to see daddy get increasingly desperate and unhinged trying to shove Lucas or Zoe into the tower to save his daughter.>>274888429He didn't "let" her cut someones head off, he Forced her to cut someones head off when she didn't want to, which fits perfectly with his belief that the past is a deadly shithole filled with people who are little better than rabid animals. It makes sense that after his wife died, especially if she was murdered in the past, and ESPECIALLY if she was murdered because she was merciful/kind/forgiving to some person who then took advantage of her doing that to kill her (maybe even by generic Fist of the North Star Bandit types to really drive home the trope), that not only would that cement his hatred of the past because "They killed the only good person in it", but that he would also decide that the only way to protect his daughter would be to teach her to be just as savage and cruel as he imagines the world to be. He probably views it as "tough love" parenting.
>>274898703I doubt Akira gives a shit about his daughter in reality. He's a complete sociopath
>>274898798In my opinion he is a psychopath because he specifically feels like the world he's in isn't real. He's from another time and sees everyone like an NPC. That's the vibe I get from him.
>>274899899I'd bet anything that's just an excuse for him. People from pre-industrial times were no different to us now. Just look at the Pompeii graffiti.
>>274899951I know, I think he's severely mentally ill. But I think its caused/worsened by him being out of his own time and him being a tree being instead of a regular person.
>>274867652Time for me to sleep, hopefully you Anons can keep it alive. Would be cute to reach bump limit again, even if we cheated a bit with that Anon who dumped it again with better raws. I wonder if he sent it to the MTL person...
>>274899969how does a tree have a daughter
>>274900004She's adopted
>>274900001Nooo Coura was denied her quints
Lukas owes Cora sex
>>274869550All of the Ramuses (Rami?) are mentally ill. Only seems natural to take on the appearance of their loved ones so that you can calm their 'tism. The pope also mentioned that time-travelers only send their soul back in time. I wouldn't be surprised if their choice of body is limited to the data collected in each tower.
>>274900228I wonder how it feels to torture someone alongside Coura and fuck after while still covered in their blood
>>274900361Cora can make Lucas worse
>>274900688dubs of truth
>>274894228It's literal London tho
>>274893685Mirror is a slut.
>>274898703>would be to teach her to be just as savage and cruel as he imagines the world to beHe doesn't tho. He's all happy go lucky about murdering.
>Lukas still owes Coura a favourWhat's it gonna be
She may be a little undercooked on the inside, but Zoe is still a Christmas cake. If Lucas doesn't hurry those last few eggs are going to spoil.
>>274901601Zoe doesn't understand sex
Can Zoe reach into the past or is it Future-only?
>>274901887The Pope said the future but who really knows, he's not a trustworthy guy.
>>274873358She wants Lucas's big, towering tree trunk
>>274873691There's no color here, it would have to be regular blindness.
>>274876273You can't blame people for the TG case, Ishida made the two hottest and most alluring girls in his manga crazy psychos.
>>274902463To be fair Touka was gorgeous tooAt least he realized he wasted Eto's design, so he partially reused it for the MC's love interest in his next manga
>>274901887She can probably reach into alternate timelines.
>>274902585>Zoe and the multiverse of madness
>>274901766She's a fast learner
>>274902643I'd mash her potatoes if you know what I'm sayin
>>274876273To be completely honest with you, Zoe is pretty boring. Coura is fucking insane which adds some depth to her character.
>>274903336Zoe is a way deeper character. Kora is just a meme schizo girl.
>>274903383I'm here for the spectacle, not for Zoe's self discovery journey. Coura's unpredictability makes things exciting.
>>274903403>I'm here for the spectacleThen go read some shonenslop.
>>274903494But I already am.
>>274873501it's called cross hatching
>>274903383She’s not a meme. She is self aware unlike other menheras and it clearly hurts her to know that no one likes her because she’s insane. We even get told that Ramus powers come from their psychology and hers is all about sharing her pain. She’s ecstatic when she imagines sharing the interrogation session with Lucas. She is a lonely girl who knows she can’t share anything because everyone looks down on her and disapproves.
>>274891501So Zoe has more fans, Couranons just attract the most attention, we are just like her. And Demi has a ton of hidden fans.
>>274894201Poppy did nothing wrong. Poppy did nothing.
>>274903526You are mean and I dislike you. This is clearly a native seinen. Jokes aside this manga is perfect to illustrate how meaningless and arbitrary that distinction is.
>>274901568I’m scared she’ll die and all of this will come up when she sacrifices herself for Lucas. Her writing is too perfect for it.
>>274903966Poppy did nothing, yet

>>274904829It is a small serie afterall, expecting it to compete with the big series is unrealistic, or malicious like the doomers try to pull.
>>274904829The ranking of shoseki seems to be a daily copy of the ranking shown on the rakuten.co.jp sitehttps://books.rakuten.co.jp/ranking/weekly/001001/#!/1/0/100/>only the ranking is shown, the actual sales remain hidden
>>274905009It is actually impressive that it doesn't fall out of top 500 even after 3 days given the context. I don't think the axe is an issue.
>>274904829The volume release schedule is very random, the release months aren't always the same, even the release days aren't always the same.Not surprising this serie went under the radar for so long, it's very unlikely to come across this serie by random encounter. It appears on public listings only few days every 3 months, irregularly, and then it vanishes out of sight.Then over an already official random schedule, you also get unreliable delayed and random scanlation schedule, and an already elusive serie becomes like a five leaf clover.Any popularity this serie has or will ever get relies entirely on the fans of it, word by mouth is the only real way this serie gets new people interested into it, cause people discovering this serie by themselves are the rare five leaf clover type fans.
>>274905136>I don't think the axe is an issue.It never was, the latest threads just attracted the usual board shitposters
>>274904382I thought Zoe was just annoyed to see potatoes in her dish too, daily walking potatoes are already enough.Zoe had potato fatigue.
>>274905229I've been lurking japanese boards and forums since chapter 1, it definitely was an issue. I know table of contents order is sort of a meme but SK has been very far down and even dead last more than it has been in the top half.
>>274905279Still though, it survived to 9 volumes and shoseki isn't all that bad for a series of its size. Add to that the license to foreign countries. I think we're relatively safe.

>>274907018In my opinion her personality is like this >>274903925Lucas is the only one who connects with her in some way. In my opinion she does love him beyond her mental illness especially after how she was blushing in the normal conversation they had a few chapters ago.
>>274906843The facsimiles are so likeable
Lucas likes everyone. He's the glue that holds the Rami together.
>>274907916Zoe>>>Coura>everyone else for Lucas
>>274906843they need their own spinoff manga
>>274907018Likely started as a clitboner but ended up as genuine suki.
>>274909058I'd love to see them together
>>274909567kek
>>274909567Amazing, saved.
Coincidence?
>The Buggle Call. This is a divine manga that gets more and more interesting! I love this manga so much that reading it is the only thing that makes my life worth living. However, the popularity is not proportional to the fun, and there are only a few volumes in bookstores... Please, please give us the last chapter that the author has drawn... Please, please, please. Please, please, read at least one chapter... It's really interesting!
>>274911429Literally who?
>>274911429Cute. At some point the word of mouth will save this. I know it.
>>274911512just a random jap feeling the pain
>>274911429kekaroo, which one of you was it
>>274909567Alright, which fucking country was retarded enough to send towers into the past to fuck up the timeline first
>>274911527At least until a twitteroid finds it and talks about how Lucas is a pedo for wanting to fuck Zoe
>>274912645Legal lady.
>>274912645Lucas is also a minor. Also Zoe is mentally ill not a true loli.
>>274912645SHE'S 27 YEARS OLD YOU SICK FUCK
>>274912572
When is Luca going to start making babies with her
>>274912930when his pelvis is developed enough to handle it
>>274912966
>>274912572Paraphrasing from Japanese cause I haven't read scans"the Empire, but with a different name and different territory"That's USA baby
>>274911384Loli america
>>274913122>Akira>Kayanovery American names
>>274911384Metero dropping = nukes
The ninth tower has not been named yet
>>274913416>Nipponia
We must all buy the viz volumes if we want to save this
>>274913416>Dunmerk
See you in a month dootbros.
>>274913248>>274913385I've always assumed the Papal States tower came from Japan because the photo in the Pope's apartment looked like Tokyo to me, but props to the authors if they actually make the Empire (bad guys) Japan.
>>274913478>Cipangu
>Uno
>>274913694>take her virginity>she gets off on the pain
>>274913416Could be either Greece or Russia
>>274913716Why not both?Papal States tower, from Japan.Empire tower, from USA.
Thread doomers are Poppy heads
>>274913887kino
I always thought the Empire was notJapan considering Akira and Kayano's name are way different than other countries. I imagine that the future is also alt history.
>>274914488Miura where is from then?
>>274913694See you in a month cute Couranon. We had another bump limit thread. Relentlessly cute.
Demi, Coura, Poppy, are also not normal names.
>>274914630We literally know where he's from
>>274914468Interrogating Poppy
>>274914630Miura should be from Japan, he also lived through a nuclear bombing.
>>274914674Nobody in this manga has a normal name
>>274914674Poppy is an Anglo nameKora is a Greek nameDemi is the only outlier
>>274914674Poppy is a fairly normal name
>>274914682Miura is a japanese name.Not from north france.
>>274914729>Poppy is an Anglo nameNow that explains why Poppy is shit, deep lore
>>274914743You just assume so because it's translated that way. Could be Meoura or whatever
>>274914729Demi is also Greek.Miura is a Jap name but he's from the Empire, isn't he?
>>274914729>Poppy is an Anglo name>The Empire is in EnglandPoppy confirmed the traitor!!!
>>274914812>but he's from the Empire, isn't he?chat is this true?
>>274914812Maybe when Miura was very little he sped up across all the eurasian supercontinent, from Japan to France.
>>274915045That would require the 9th tower to be in japan, but it still wouldn't work, since between Japan and Europe there would be too much space outside the towers range.It wouldn't be possible to fast travel across Asia where there is no tower connectivity.
>>274915045>>274915099see >>274914806
>>274913416It would be very on brand of America to set up their base in England but call it Ireland instead. Obviously I doubt that was what the author was intending though.
>>274867652I love all Bugle Anons and would love to please them in any way I can for having good taste in manga
>>274915216ミウラMI U RADoesn't leave much to the interpretation. Normally it would be written in kanji but Akira and Kayano both use katakana as well.
>>274915547>Doesn't leave much to the interpretationBro you retarded? If it was Miueiaras it would still be "Miura" in japanese.
>>274915530>Airstrip One
Goodbye Anons! Last for Coura
