The age of the samurai is overChapters 14-19 >>275119647
>>275183470THAT FUCKING CAT
>>275183470It's almost time.
>>275183641I can't believe Fuuta is this obsessed over porn, this must be the work of Fortuna.
Nono, no!
>>275183597>Their souls settled the score but Koko is still salty about FortunaThis is really funny in retrospective
>>275183860NONOBROS SHE STILL HAS A CHANCE
>>275183860That's the way Nono, go for the grand prize!
The seldom seen loli Kouko
>>275184027U-UUUUUUOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH
Fortuna made cocoa? That doesn't sound so bad
>>275184175wtf Kouko you can't spoil the One Piece like that
No that's ki, Fuuta, you filthy casual
>>275184113no you're not you crazy bitch
>>275184046Fuuta... She's trying to tell you the story of her childhood.
Umi feels so different from her previous lives.
>>275184202Fuuta has a terminal evil women fetish
>>275183718I had totally forgotten about this.
I'd be a big crybaby about all this too
>>275184343At least he's not trying to trap Kouko in a car.>>275184384Houtarou succeeded?
>>275183860Just go with it Fuuta.
>>275184483Cute.
>>275184384>>275184408>>275184432This part always gets me too. I always tend to view Flors-Houtarou as one arc arc due to how much Flors builds towards Houtarou, and Houtarou's life ends in such a grand way that redeems Flors' biggest failures in life in such a meaningful and emotional way. The fact that all of them actually got to meet again at the spot where they were supposed to meet, even if it was many lives later, is such a touching moment.
>>275184568SEXEX
I'll do one more, so I'm not dumping an entire volume tomorrow
>>275184483I just noticed, Fuuta's dad was Flors' paternal figure and Fuuta's mom was Houtarou's nurse and sort of maternal figure when he was a little kid. It's pretty interesting.
>>275184581>fuck you you need to re-read the manga from the start if you want to go back to the previous arcWhat a fickle man.
>>275184568RUNE BOOBA
>>275184689>Daiki 3No wonder he's always the (drunk) wiseman in every reincarnation.
>>275184689Based retard
>>275183513That's gotta mean something
>>275184744>Next one's my favoriteSame here, Fortuna
>>275184744Fortuna has good taste in lives
>>275183581>>275183597I imagine him talking with a super proper by modern standards, but slightly old timey accent here
>>275184744Fortuna is the 3rd reincarnation right? So it means that he can see Future lifes?
>>275184780E N T E RNTERThe man who quite literally did nothing wrongAlso the man with the highest kill count in the manga
>>275183597>Houtaro, Vann, and Fone never scoredI guess Vann might've at some point
>>275184851Do you honestly think Fone and Rei never boned?
>>275184797Me too
>>275184851>FonePretty sure premarital sex wasn't heavily frowned upon in societies like Fone's, especially when it's between betrothed pairs.
>>275183655>tell your friend about a stash of porn mags>he immediately ditches schools to run to its location
>>275184990The baldie from the Sphinx setting is back!
>>275184990ENTERThe undisputed best incarnation of Koko
>>275185046It's interesting how their previous life influenced even the injuries they experienced in this one>>275152494>>275152604
>>275183822That's got to feel trippy. Probably not going to help his personality disorder but it looks like it didn't have as big of an effect as Flors anyway
>>275185096She looks like Maki
>>275183835Fucking kek I wonder what Kouko thinks, like if his last life experience was a mega horny pervert and its getting to him or if that's just him
>>275185148So i guess this is a future life of Fuuta?
>>275185167Koko could've fixed Fortuna if only she had lots of hatesex with him.Imagine.
Calling it there todayYou guys need to either get yapping and use up the thread or I'll probably be splitting Lafalle's story in half>>275184836Fortuna is the first, he's just... built a bit differently
>>275184568very puffy
>>275185148>kept alive forever as a brainI'm sure nothing could go wrong.
>>275184343I get him
>>275185214Thanks OPSince it is show that we can see future lifes i theorize that what is actualy is happening is that Fortuna is the one looking at Fuuta's life
>>275183860Nono, yes!
>>275183860LmaoShe's been getting less and less subtle but that was really forward for her
>>275185148>>275185214Gotta love Lafalle's life, this entire setting and everything that happens in it is really interesting
>>275185148This type of technology intrigues me. Of course, it's still very underdeveloped in terms of theory and practicality in real life, but it is intriguing to consider the implications if it ever came into fruition in our lifetime.
>>275185113Aizenbros our chair...
>>275185352The best ways to test it, taking fully functional living humans and stripping away everything but the brain and directly related nervous system to experiment with, would generally be considered morally wrong, so if it were to be something developed for real it would take quite a while.
>>275184432You think that Jinkurou and Rihana found their bodies?
>>275184721Isn't Rune Rei?
>>275185148>>275185214I love this narration, the "quiet extinction" is a very vivid image.
>>275185441I'm pretty sure that only the monk and Akari found their bodies, mourned them then buried them. Jinkurou and Rihana never saw Houtarou and Oobayashi again.
>>275185466No.
>>275185148That sounds like hell to me. Let me die.
>>275185214How many chapters will there be tomorrow? I might need to plan around it.
>>275184689kek, he can't believe he's that stupid
>>275183470Lafalle is so fucking cool man.
>>275183617Hmmmmmmm.
>>275185599Lafalle's life is pretty long , it almost takes the entire volume IIRC
>>275184175Damn East is wise. I wonder if he got any of this from Fortuna
>>275185337Same. When I first read this manga I would read a chapter or two per day but I read Lafalle's arc in one sitting.
>>275185599I think we'll do three tomorrow, four the next day
>>275185870Ok that should be fine. Thanks.
>>275185466You'll see.
>>275183718>>275183730I love seeing some Fuuta emotions>>275183805Obayashi is the true hidden MVP here
>>275183597is his mark fading?
>>275184368Second cousin is absolutely fair game
>>275184689>This is what gets Fortuna Lmao
>>275184626You just noticed what has been explicitly pointed out before in the manga?
>>275184027Rare moment of Kouko taking responsibility, good job!
>>275186046I just find it interesting that Fuuta's parents have been paternal figures to at least one of his lives in one way or another. Fuuta really lucked out with his current life, he's surrounded by all of the people he had great relationships with in the past.
>>275184426Nono would be the one trapped in the car
>>275185966It is.
>>275184175>>275185791I'm kinda surprised East isn't more involved in trying to reason between the two... But knowing the context it kind of makes sense he's being cautious and not taking sides
>>275185276>>275185578You're gonna love this arc.
>>275185978Aren't even first cousin marriages not too infrequent?
>>275184275Love the random mundane talk
>>275184341Nono's gonna freak
>>275184341So cute
>>275186253Depends on the country, i got banned the last time i talked too hard about who really likes cousin fucking. Let's not talk about it.
>>275185432I do admit that the "brain in a jar" concept is just a bridge too far (perhaps even fantasy). The idea that I could live but be incapable of tangible experiences, mundane or otherwise, is something that is revolting to my sensibilities.I was initially going to study biomedical engineering to get work in designing exosuits and mechanical supports, but it was learning about cellular pathways and how they're so fickle to reacting to environmental changes that made me start the leap into studying regenerative sciences. The idea that age or misfortune serves to erode your cells' consistency and leads to the type of long-term suffering from illness is something I'd prefer not experiencing. I couldn't live peacefully not knowing if it was possible to make such a fantasy feasible if I had the means to.>>275186141At least the Spirit Circle has only room for one.
>>275184473He's becoming handsome, watch out Koko!
>>275184341Yeah, i get confused on who she used to be, gotta remember that it's the short midget
>>275184551Puppy
>>275184689WIS vs INT
>>275184551I think it's more likely he's just as influenced as he was with Flors but it's harder to tell since they're still in the same culture. The memory problem just isn't as bad because he had a way shorter lifeI bet he comes out of the next experience even worse than Flors from not waiting
>>275184744Fortuna is 100% right
>>275186496I don't remember who else after this and before fortuna
>>275186527It's the genderswap version, a very ordinary life, almost offscreened
>>275186545Oh shit, zero memory at all
>>275184839It's insane how both of these statements are true at the same time>>275184794It's starting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4irXQhgMqgFor some reason I read that arc with that song and it really stuck to me.
>>275184642He should've known he's stubborn and strong willed
>>275186545>very ordinary lifeOther than all the big stuff
>>275186288>improves your umi
>>275184689Actually laughing out loud holy fuck Fortuna's fucking face
>>2751849906'1 assholes bragging
>>275186602Removing the glasses is far from an improvement.
>>275184990Lapis is always best girl
>>275186602Die.
>>275186351>>275185578There's a line I'm really looking forward to see about this subject later. Don't know if we're getting it next thread or the one after, but I'm pretty hyped up.
>>275184924I just assume she would've got pregnant if they were
>>275185870>>275185214Thanks OP, good to see we're doing it in two days, it deserves the time to breathe.
>>275184990This fuuta seems slightly autistic
>>275186602Oh. I remember you from the previous storytime.
>>275186736If you're talking about Lafalle connecting the dots, I'm also looking forward to it. It's such a great cliffhanger right at the half of Lafalle's life.
>>275185113What do first time readers think of this?
>>275186602is this Dumpy anon?
>>275186818What was the original line? How did the TLs even get epic fail?
>>275186843That bad things are going to happen.
>>275186351microbiology really intrigues me but i honestly have no idea where to even starthow does a fertilized egg make the split cells change into different limbs? i thought they all had the same DNA, so does the result not end up being just a symmetric glob?i also find it mind boggling how a bunch of random molecules just so happened to make a self-replicating organism. how many components do you need to make the simplest possible cell? DNA; lipid layer, energy source?
>>275186841I'm talking about the final confrontation where Lapis says "their cells are still trying to live, you can't kill them" and Lafalle answers "Cells have no will. They're only responding to stimuli". Pretty strong rebuttal.
>>275185105I wonder what the meaning is. They made up in the end but those wounds were made in an extremely important fight to both of them at the time
>>275186602
>>275186905That's also a pretty great scene. Hell, Lafalle's life is full of great dialogue. You can tell Mizukami had a lot of fun in coming up with the scenarios and thought experiments within it.
>>275186849Going by my old saved folder, I think this was the translation used in the original storytime. I think it just means the Sphinx is calling himself a shit piece of work.
>>275183930I guess he would want to see how his sister is doing, but what did she want to go do?
>>275186956I already said that in a previous thread but Mizukami really shoved an entire manga worth of storytelling in that one life, it's kind of insane. The political subplots are waaaay more developed than they had to be, and I love it so much more for it
>>275187005>It's enough, I'm satisfied. I'm leavingProbably going to her next life, or the same place as >>275183805
>>275185201It's technically in the future of the time line even though it's a past lifeFuuta pointed out Vann came before Flors even though Flors seemed to live further in the past
>>275185432That spoiler gave me feelings of wanting to commit terrorism holy shit fuck that
>>275185201The sequence of lives doesn’t follow the chronological order of their setting. You could die in our present, reincarnate in a sci fi future, and your next life after that one could be medieval.
>>275186351All I know is that dumping my brain into a cool robot body is the long term healthcare plan I've decided on
>>275186254I love that they were doing that, joking around that their friends might be descendants, and then it turned out to be a huge detail
>>275187111Funny, so did a lot of people in that time.
>>275187111Exactly. Like I said, generally would be considered morally wrong. Even if you were to use death row inmates or something there is just a spark in the human soul that violently rejects the idea of doing it. Though that feeling doesn't mean such things aren't going to happen in the future. There have been experiments that are just as morally wrong that have already happened in our world today after all.
>>275187111Funny you say that...
>>275186844Speaking of, what is Dumpy... dumping these days?
>>275187200>>275187227To be fair, the terrorists weren't only about the tower but also about the entire technological paradigm kind of ruining mankind as a whole. I say "kind of" because it's not really black and white and people still seemed to have some drive and good in them, but the time period was still quite fucked up. I'd say it's worse than Fuuta's time period, for sure
>>275186843>brains in jars>not actually dead>there's more of them than living peopleThis HAS to be relevant in a manga that's about reincarnated lives
>>275187050I don't think she'd care about that guy or any of the mooks she was with enough to go visit them as a ghost
>>275187364By same place, I meant the "light" Rune was talking about, if it's the process that gets you reincarnated. If not then no, because she obviously did reincarnate.
>>275187219Even if the work was being done on the most possible deserving I'd still want to stop it just for the sake of destroying any progress or knowledge of how to do it
>>275186602GAAAAY
>>275187291Right? Seems like that would be the end of the road for all the people that got pickled. Although I have a feeling something is going to go terribly wrong (or maybe right) and those souls are going to be freed.
>>275187466Yes, and even if you're an atheist you should still have some sanctity left in your reasoning to make you refuse doing that kind of shit
>>275187479We've seen that "past" lives on a souls time line can take place in a worlds future, but could a soul reincarnate to a time when it was there as a different life?
>>275187720I'd wondered that too. With time being irrelevant to the order it seems like it would be theoretically possible. And Fuuta has already been talking to himself so the potential for that to happen shouldn't be a problem.
>>275187720You mean like two incarnations existing at the same time?
>>275187892Exactly. I wonder if Fuuta will end up cleaning his own brain jar
>>275186885>how does a fertilized egg make the split cells change into different limbs? You're going to have to forgive me for the wait since I only narrowly passed anatomy classes (among my health sciences courses, this is the one I barely handled). The fertilized egg already developed enough cells and merge with the uterus; limbs are the product of mesoderm which were meant to protect the newly developing organs (mostly cardiovascular since that's what's bringing the nutrients and taking out waste) which were created to compensate for the growing number of cells for the fetus. I'm not sure on the exact methods in which the cells know to do this, but it's believed to be hormonal changes communicated by the placenta to the mother and vice versa. As for DNA... that's an abiogenesis thing. I couldn't even start with that desu since that's not my field of research. Cellular differentiation needed for the above explanation doesn't change the DNA irrc, but their metabolism (and subsequently function) can. >>275187188I once tried imagining how my life would be if I were to a robot as part of that phase when I started to change my life towards pursuing regenerative science. I think I developed night terrors fearing only being able to experience the void despite being conscious for a few weeks.
>>275183730I want Rune to pamper me
>>275188631This is why I still love 4chan, you always have people from interesting walks of life or expertise going here. Autism binds us all
>>275184343That's not something a little bit of "fixing" can't solve
>>275184763ENTER basically just Rick
>>275184341Umi is enlightened, she's just waiting on the others
>>275188631Okay I need to correct myself on DNA. The DNA of the parent cell is a product of shuffling the DNA carried by the gametes (sperm + egg) which is the zygote, which replicates to start the developmental process. >>275188823My favourite part is whining on hist-fic manga storytimes over small inaccuracies and pulling a book out of my ass to explain how a Japanese shonen writer got something wrong and displeased me.
>>275188917I wanted to be mad but you're kind of right
>>275189000I've always been leary about starting historical manga because I'm such a historyletLike, I watched and enjoyed Elusive Samurai because it gave me all, or most of, the context I neededBut I fear not all hist-fic is as lenient
>>275186602Nono next life is turtle girl and Umi next life is going to be Samidare.
>>275189091It's honestly better if you are a historylet. Sure you won't get the minutiae of what you're reading, but you can better appreciate the intended characterization and story rather than worry about small details. Being initiated is marginally better than being a powerscaler when put like that. If the mangaka also includes post-volume/chapter notes, they're usually diligent enough to tell you what's meant to be a creative liberty. One of my favourites has to be Gunka no Balthzar which is certainly not historical (its set in a fictional world), but it's so intricate and the story intriguing enough to keep me enticed. I dropped it after Volume 11 since I hated the new plotline at that point.
>>275189195I could see tetsu being lizard knight
>>275189256You mean Crow Knight, right?
>>275185036He was a bandit in Houtaro's life.He's been looking for his hair
>>275189223I forgot picrel as part of my spiel about Gunka no Baltzar.
>>275189272Oh I forgot about him, that's way more of a match
>>275185036>>275189279>bald in every reincarnationWhat did he do to deserve this
>>275183541CITY
>>275189774Anime soon!
>>275189774How is CITY compared ti Nichijou? Same but different?
>>275183886>HeyBeautiful...
>>275183916Wahhhh.... Water God really know when to strike critical hit.
>>275183930>that conversationIt's THAT, right?The TRUTH of Spirits/Souls.
>>275183953>casual clothesDammit. She's really cute.
>>275184027Keep at it!>>275184039NO! Fortuna, you fuck...
>>275184191This is one messed up date.
>>275184202It's totally a date, girl.>>275184222East, what are you doingShe's your daughter...
>>275184305>promise to meet up hereTotally not a date.
>>275184312Yes, comfort him. DO IT!>>275184341Heh, it's all flowing so naturally. One would think the world itself want them to be together.
>>275190079That was for his sister and friend this time though
>>275184368The way they blush is so endearing.
>>275184447Rune is as carefree as ever...
>>275184483His mark is fading.
>>275189874Nichijou but with more characters and more plot (though I use the term plot loosely).
>>275190224I had to double take when I was reading this live during today's chapter dump and wasn't sure if it was always like that. Glad to know that I wasn't just seeing things.I was going to say something like "his relationship with Kouko is finally healing, I'm glad to see that happen."
>>275186602Were you in the Yugami storytime? That anon was evil
>>275184568big nips
I believe this arc has Mizukami's best art
>>275183513If I see that fucking cat one more time...
>>275190318Initially I thought it was just that it got lighter with each incarnation and that's why Fuuta's was faded. But it's gotten a lot lighter since the first chapter.
>>275184689I think he was in the middle of explaining how he could've used his past lives knowledge and experience at will, Assassin's Creed animus style
>>275186684I thought the same thing.
>>275184039The bandage on the middle panel makes it look like he's opening his mouth.
>>275185214Thank you for posting.
>>275184661>>275184689The fact that Fuuta keeps throwing Fortuna off balance is a nice touch, don't think I noticed this on previous rereads.
>>275193009Fortuna looks like a nice guy here!
>>275185148>>275186351I think the interesting part is that the brains here haven't been given any external senses or robotic bodies or anything, they're just dreaming in a jar. The tech on display seems pretty advanced so you'd think they'd be able to do it. I wonder if it's just a case of the tech not working out as well as expected or more of a case of tradition where that's how it was done back during the first cases and now everyone just gets jarred. Or maybe since the manga is about reincarnation the souls have already departed and the past people of this time already tried giving them robot bodies but they were as good as comatose.
>>275193821Maybe they can't stress them out that much. Like, being put in a body and being conscious and able to move that body would still result in exhausting the brain at a faster rate, while keeping it in the jar in a simpler state while you just feed it with some specific electrical signals allows you to let it dream without "using" it as much.
>>275193009How would you feel if you saw your past lives and realized you were the dumbest one among them?
>>275191020I miss Lapis. Houseki was so fucking good. Actual top 3 manga for me. Spirit Circle is up there too, I adore it.
Fortuna did nothing wrongAlso, reprint fucking when?
>>275183718Oh shit, it was the retainer guy.
>>275183860AAAAAHHHHHHHHH, WIFE HER NOW! TALL NONO WIFE SEX SEX SEX SEX SEX!
>>275184027That's right bitch. Your reincarnation was in the wrong.
>>275184161I'd be pissed too, hated by your crush without knowing the reason.
>>275184259>what is this, an anime?I have mixed feelings about that after Sengoku Youko and Hoshi no Samidare, scar girl.
>>275184305I want their friends to see this, it'd be spicy gossip material.
>>275184341Heh, I knew it.
>>275184368>we're relatedTHAT MAKES IT HOTTER!
>>275184384>>275184408Awww... he's so relieved those two got their happy ending. Why am I tearing up, bros...?
>>275184568PUFFY AND PERKY
>>275184616THANK YOU WATER GOD
I get to share this threads with anons who have never read it before. In this way I am blessed
>>275184689KEK, YOU TELL HIM!
>>275184763WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO MAKE ME HORNY IN THE MIDDLE OF SOME SERIOUS STUFF, WATER GOD?!
>>275184887>a fucking janny
>>275185113What have Soul Society turn into?
>>275185148Kind of fucked up. Fortuna said something about souls learning from each other, whatever that is. Does that mean the souls are trapped here for a long time without learning anything since they're just dreaming? I can see this fucking over the cycle of reincarnation or some shit. Makes me think of the Voidniggers tampering with fate.
>>275185214Thanks Magister. I'll try my best to post as much as I can.
>>275185870Oh, you're going to split it anyway? Not gonna finish the bread then.
>>275186634kek
>>275186843What I said here >>275195914
So does okeya get the cliff notes and see what we see or is it the full ride? It must be awkward to see your classmate and see your past life getting laid with them
>>275187892>>275188319Hmm... maybe if there's no rule for all souls to be unique in a period of time.
>>275189874Nichijou but more intricate and with more artistry.
>>275196123He must sees what we see, Fuuta is to transparent to not react if he had seen Flor's sex scene.
>>275196306Flors' sex scenes must have happened like 30 years before his death
>>275194330I'd be delighted if I'm the dumbest version of myself.
>>275196306Even if he did see them, they were probably too depressing to be hot.
There's a chance I'm going to be late today
>>275184568rune has fat nipples!
>>275187230He's dumping The Wolf Never Sleeps >>275184649
>>275197353No biggie, thanks for the heads up
>>275196123He's living it all in a dream, so it's probably more or less what we see. The broad strokes of important periods of his lives.
>>275197880Spoilers, anon... Delete this
>>275197900It's not a spoiler, but fine.
>>275197978Can't be too cautious. Fake spoilers can also throw people off. But yeah that's a pretty funny life, I'm looking forward to see how much sense it makes on a reread.
>>275197880>and should have won anyway.Stop posting KEKtuna
>>275198062
>>275198443hehe
>>275188631as for embryology, it is one of the richest fields in biology, there is a lot we don't know. But the answer to lots of the "how" are triggered gene expression and gradients. I think of DNA/RNA/ribosomes as God's compression algorithm that runs using the laws of aqueous chemistry. The more I learn about it, the more I wish I had gone into biology instead of physics and comp sci.
>>275189223>>275189272same with Magus of the Library. Every volume has a few pages of footnotes at the end. Many fantasy writers get off on the world-building and filling in details like that. (And then there is the recently-storytimed Courier/Hero/Dragon and that author's medieval autism.)
>>275192964Cute girl. I will go die in a ditch
>>275197781Although he has also mentioned how long it feels like. We know he's not seeing everything like how he only started with Houtarou when he woke up captured. But I think he still might be experiencing more than we see.
>>275194481I miss how good the threads were. The hiatus really killed them. Though the quality was already declining from all the genocidefags.
>>275183953>He said he hated the character "Next" in his name.Damn you Mizukami, such a good job laying the groundwork down. Just so Fortuna gets to remember that at the end.
>>275193009I love how genuinely disturbed Fortuna is by thisThis scene is also a good look at his personality before we actually meet him too. He's obviously some kind of elitist academic here, we know he committed some kind of horrible crime, and we've seen how curious, stubborn, and strong Fuuta's incarnations always are. I can see Fortuna being the type of guy to start putting brains in jars to try to make people immortal
>>275202310Interesting observations
>>275202310You're not too far off. Or rather, pretty damn close.
>>275202368Or is he? I could argue the opposite. That's the funniest thing. Because Lafalle did the exact opposite thing
>>275186602Omae... I remember this rat.
>>275202310You could even say he's already done that by tying Rune and East's spirits in the spirit circles and not letting them pass on.
>>275202429I mean the way he stuck East in a spirit body to prolong his life because of his turbo AIDS
>>275203406Yes, but that shows Fortuna kinda did the opposite of what Lafalle did
>>275183835Umi is still the best
>>275184061Only medieval healthcare and medicine are at fault the whole of Fuuta's town isn't populated solely by their descendants
>>275184343Fuuta's literally me.
>>275186602Wow, anon doing crimes worse than Fortuna
Just came in to say that FLORS is a lie! Duralumin made him up! There is no FLORS!I was learning to read classical greek last night and I remembered that bit where Fuuta signed his name wrong so I decided to check it out. It says Φουροου which in greek(modern greek, not classical since this used lowercase letters which only started 9th century AD and not the era seemingly portrayed. Mizukami probably just used google translate to spell it out.) is pronounced Foo-rooo and in the raws it's フロウ which is pronounced FOO-ROW. If you wanted to romanize into something with a nice ring it'd be Flow but accurately it'd be rendered as Foolow. It bothered me that "Flors" was the only one in Fuuta's reincarnation line that didn't seem to have an apparent theme to it but now it's clear that it was simply not transmitted prorperly.So because that motherfucker changed the name for no good goddamned reason none of us have been calling him by his actual name. It's bad enough that he was already doing that arbitrary dubshit nonsense way back then but then you remember this page and the extra bit of tragedy in that not one of us in all this time has actually said his name right. Fuck you Duralumin!
>>275204359I don't know man, Father Sphinx kinda suits him.
>>275204359I am utterly floored.
>>275204359I'm not an expert on Greek names, but unlike Flors the original sounds like gibberish. A rare case of inevitable adaptation.
>>275204777>I'm not an expert on Greek names, but unlike Flors the original sounds like gibberish. A rare case of inevitable adaptation.Then going with the romanized Flow would have been the choice to make. You're forgetting that the chapters were put out as they came monthly so all Duralumin would have had to go on with would have been the japanese フロウ. You can't even get the -RS ending from reading that aloud in japanese, greek, coptic or latin so it's a weirdly arbitrary addition to make.
oh yeah, it's time for best incarnation
>>275204359Somehow I bet even us getting his name wrong is infinitely more pleasing to him than calling him Father Sphinx
So was there any historical precedent for Greeks contracted to create or overseer monuments in Egypt/African nations?
>>275187021I thought this thumbnail was a big titty shortstack edit at first glance. Do flat boobs follow you throughout all your reincarnations?
I can't get over how Houtarou was unbelievably justified posts like to repeat "Fortuna/Lafalle did nothing wrong" but it's inarguably the case for Houtarou
>>275206182Because Houtarou's correctness is self evident no matter who you are, with Lafalle you actually have to think a little.
>>275206049There were Greeks in Egypt even before they conquered the place and they had pretty extensive contact. The Egyptians had perfectly good architects of their own so it's unlikely they would have hired a Greek one. But then Alvol was having it built under his ruler's nose so maybe that's why he sought oitside help.
>two of Fuuta's incarnations had insane and evil younger brothers>his mom is pregnant
>>275207283Such is the way of younger brothers.
>>275204068That could be true anyway. It's just those two are also reincarnations of them
>>275204273Maybe that is his crime. He stole the glasses of every life of Kouko
>>275206094That one side characters baldness does
>>275207369My younger brother is just a less lazy me
>>275207283Don't worry about it.
But seriously, fuck the faggot-ass sphinx.
>>275194330I'm pretty smart (at least academically) so it'd certainly be a suprise. Unless all my other reincarnations are also even more lacking in common sense than I already am to make up for it.
Gonna start a new thread or use this one?
>>275204359You mean greek Fuuta?
>>275194330Apologize and hope the next one goes better
>>275208104Okay Mister Sphinx, don't you have a library or something to be building?
That thing I said about maybe being late?That was a lie
>>275211601>go eat a saladStop insulting his diet!
Just some innocent questionsNothing to mind
>>275211693>1st panelWhat did these robots mean by that?Also, the terrorists mentioned ITT are finally here. I'm still ambivalent on their society. It's clearly unhealthy but it's trying hard to recover from crisis even if it means some drastic measures like the brain jars. The brain jars are definitely going to be the center of a plot twist that makes them evil though.
>>275211720>>275211737too spooky.
My theory is that OP is that fucking cat.
>>275211809Terrible.
>>275211601Based fry enjoyer>>275211680Based life enjoyer
>>275211853>space elevatorI'm starting to hear cries of "hack" for some reason.
>>275211919Well that explains how he lost the arm and leg this time.
>>275212025We haven't seen Houtarou following around Fuuta like the others. I wonder if it's because he had to be banished like Obayashi because he wouldn't leave?
>>275212079NOPE
>>275211919And thus they repaid their debt from Houtarou. God I love this manga. Riffle is such a sweetheart...
>>275212180>he didn't get disappearedNext boss it is then.
>>275212223What a twist
>>275212013Foolow is absolutely SEETHING right now
>>275212025Poor priest>>275212147I guess that was the right answer to the manager's questions
Just scrubbing windows all day to put yourself in a preincarnation trance
*That*?
>>275211767It's nice how Lafalle and Lapis are close enough that they can goof around like this. After so many lives of them being at each other's throats, it's refreshing to see them actually getting along.
>>275212391Houtaro healing worked>>275212429I like how frank they are
>>275212013[Muffled Flors SEETHING in the distance]
>>275212453>>275212464>>275212488It's raining today....
>>275212025>Priestbro blames himself for Houtarou and Iwana's deaths because he was drunk at the timeAlways makes me feel a bit bad, the priest was a good man.
>>275212079RE-ENTERMYSTERY NIGGA
A little dash of Rune since we won't be getting more of her today
>>275204359>FoolowNo wonder people called him Sphinx.
>>275212574Reminder that Lafalle OBJECTIVELY did nothing wrong here and has Spacifica on his side
And then Talio has a heart attack right on the spot
>>275212350Uuuooohhh... loli Iwana...
>>275212223So sad that this is probably Talio fulfilling the regrets of the priests life
>>275212415>"Do you like your job?">"Uh, I dunno... kind of?"He's literally me...
>>275212761war is heck
>>275211589Wait, Douren?!
>>275212453>>275212464>>275212488This always fucking gets me even when I know it's coming.Yet another "if a Spirit Circle anime doesn't adapt this scene properly it's SHIT" scene.
>>275212574MYSTERY NIGGA
I did a quick edit because he said 23th
>>275211680Shut up, fried food tastes good! And who designed these electrode-looking robots to glare like that?
>>275212834https://youtu.be/pjdSEhRi0JILove me some conspiracies
>>275211720Suddenly, three years passed.
>>275212834>horrible authoritarian measure to prevent conflictThis smells like Koko.
Mankind; suffering from success
>>275211775>What did these robots mean by that?Humanity is dying, the robots are trying their best to better the situation. Must be those Abebots lines of models.
Antispiral-ass
>>275212948I'm going to keep it real with you Magister and fellow anons, this is what I plan to pursue once I'm done my studies. It's just too exciting.
>>275213050Rad
>>275213050Godspeed lad
>>275213032Unfathomably based, mankind's destiny is up to man to decide.And Lafalle decided for them.
>>275213050Godspeed anon, don't get too disillusioned by real life and watch out for glowies if you're making too much progress.
>>275211919Nyooo!
>>275213032Always admired his resolve, but I wonder if the translation is right in this page? He's obviously telling the ghost that humanity will chose its own fate, but is he also saying the non-living must be enabled even though he knows they're hypocritical?
>>275212529T-thanks Vann...
>>275213081That's not to say that Spirit Circle pushed me into the deep end, I was already in free fall years ago. It started with reading about neurodegenerative diseases for a mock project and ended with me reading papers about senescence after a while. I've gotten the next five years planned, I just need to make it sure it flourishes.
>>275213122Ted sheds a tear from the clouds.
That stinksWhich backstory would you rather have? This or terrorist explosion?
>>275211919Rihama immediately went to shield him with her bad
>>275213147Pretty cool stuff man. Always good to have something to dedicate your all for.Or as manager says >>275213000
>>275212223N-NANI?!?!
>>275212013His Flow is spilling.
>>275213101I guess they can't hook up the brains inside robots or something
>>275213171Definitely this one. It's touching to know that a loved one gave one last blessing to me before they left the living world. The explosion leaves too much loose ends untied and is perhaps more traumatic.
>>275212025Oh, I thought he's Douren before..
>>275213171What is it with scientist dads mutilating their daughters?
>>275213171I'll take Lafalle's story 10 times out of 10. Honestly it's a miracle Lapis isn't completely messed up with this
>>275213188They finally became good friends. It brings a tear to my eye.It only makes the ending of this life that much more tragic.
>>275212079Mystery nigga!
Seems like a good spot to end it todaySee you lot tomorrow
>>275213241But it seems the dad actually tore off her limbs himself
>>275213188Rune is much better looking.
>>275213287YEAH. I JUST REALIZED.
>>275213171Definitely terrorist explosion. Family dying to protect you would be traumatic. But your own father dismembering you would be horror shit.
>>275212180So he's going to be the next manager.
>>275213280Love the pacing man, so many things.
>>275212803And some faggot retard would say>bad source = bad adaptation
>>275213307Now that I've harshly corrected my mistake, I'd have to reverse course and say that the explosion is more preferable. >>275213312Has got it right for me.
>>275212223It's embedded in their souls.
>>275213233Priestbro ;_;>>275213280RIP Talio. This is a good stopping point since there's next to no breaks in the Lafalle train from this point onwards.
>>275213335D-don't remind me. At least I'm glad we don't have "him" in these "threads".
>>275212350I always knew janny work will turn you schizophrenic.
>>275213280Thanks Magister. I'm enjoying this manga very much. I planned to read it over a year ago but I never got around to it. You've storytimed a few things that I got to finish thanks to you: Fire Force, Soul Eater, now this. Spirit Circle will certainly be my most favourite among the three at this rate. >>275213427At least they're being compensated.
>>275212379
>>275212395They should consider putting people's brain jar on the top most floor.
>>275213280Well at least Akari got to see them go.
>>275213280kudos to the pace of the dumps, feels really natural
>>275212488If nothing matters, why does it hurt anon...?
>>275213280Was it an accident or an """accident"""?
>>275212503At least you guys aren't doing it for free.
>>275212574>BORN TO DIE>WORLD IS A FUCK>Kill Em All 3589>You are cleaning man>410,757,864,530 DEAD BRAINSWhat did Spacifica mean by this?
>>275212574Whatever you say, Mr. mystery nigga.
>>275213280To our newfriends, what do you think about Lafalle's life so far? What do you think about the setting, and what are your predictions or expectations as to what will happen next?
>>275212574Hey he's got a point
>>275212653She sure likes her secrets.
>>275212675>a mysteryFucking... I spat my milk thinking he's gonna say mystery nigga.
>>275213635I'm pretty sure I'd have joined the terrorists if I lived in this world. I for sure wouldn't want to be a brain janny and I'd hope not to be brained myself. Although it is nice how well Lafalle and Lapis are getting along for a change. I predict that Lafalle is going to go crazy and kill all the brains and Lapis will hate him for it, reigniting their feud for future incarnations.
>>275213718
>>275213799fukken saved
>>275212963>the superhumans didn't want childrenThat's already happening without superhumans.
>>275211853Was this some kind of death sense?
>>275213775I assume you can just ask to not be brained. Default policy is probably to brain if the person hasn't said anything because of accidents.
>>275213032Kinda based, even if retarded.
>>275213050Beware the mystery niggas.
>>275213861Cute Koko
It's the glasses. Umi stole Lapis' glasses and made her a bitch in the current life.
>>275213140> is he also saying the non-living must be enabled even though he knows they're hypocritical?I think that's a fair interpretation. I think it's the "our suffering is our own" part that confirms that they're aware of the implications of the non-living's existence but are willing to accept it for their own sake.
>>275213171What the fuck, most of the girl's reincarnations are all kinds of messed up shit. No wonder she's seething so much.
>>275213280The governments did this! Thanks Maggy.
>>275212761>>275212834>population collapse in 23rd century after peak of 12 billionMost estimates I've seen for the population that the Earth will top out at based on declining birth rates even in the developing world put it around there. I'm guessing Mizukami had seen those too.
>>275213635I like Lafelle so far, showing snippets of the other reincarnations here and there is neat. I can feel the inevitable doom approaching and it's scaring me, with all this setups and Fortuna saying this reincarnation is an interesting one.
>>275213799Kek.
>>275214218>showing snippets of the other reincarnations here and there is neat.The various reincarnations get more interplay than I remembered
>>275214027>mostIsn't it all of them? The least bad was the medicine woman who, as far we know, was "only" murdered knowing that she was unable to help that village. The rest have all either died horribly at a young age or had a traumatic upbringing.
>>275213868I think it's just to show that he's become alienated from his parents. Note that only the uncle and girl are detailed in >>275213122 when he talks about it, I presume he had been living at his place for a while now for some reason. It's interesting he was also estranged in the greek and japanese lives.
>>275214267The ninja princess had it alright...
>>275214354Clan and country got slaughtered and raised to be a killer for the ones who did it?
>>275212310That looks like an estus flask
>>275214377She lived to adulthood and did stuff she liked
>>275214267Hmm, you're right. I'm not sure why I used most there. Must be because the ninja girl settled their differences and the scar girl going on a date with Fuuta.
>>275214406>and did stuff she likedDid she, though? She didn't like the fighting. She was just doing it out of Koko compulsion.
>>275214537It's a gray area I'd say, she said she did it to stop the fighting but that it was just making excuses. She might have found herself talented for this and kept doing it for the sake of it and with the ideals as a rationale, while still feeling conflicted about it deep down. Or at least that's how I'd view it
>>275214507So far Kouko's life seems fine. I'd say she probably had something bad happen too based on all her other incarnations being cursed. But her dad being as cool as he is makes me doubt that.
>>275214537She finally settled the score with Houtarou so it's got to count for something I guess
>>275214636I would say it was her least bad life for that reason. Roca's and the medicine lady's were arguably better. But I think the horrible stuff happening first and then finding peace would be preferable to ending on such a bad note even if it was preceded by a more pleasant life.
>>275214590I'm thinking the scar, if it's not from her previous reincarnation.
>>275214813Medicine probably had a better life than Flors
>>275214915That's not a high bar lol
>>275215043Let's seeStona and Fone had it equally badVann and medicine might have been similar, but since Vann had friends and a legacy I'll say it might be for VannFlors at least didn't get killed alongside everyoneHoutaro and ninja are both decentLafalle had it better than Lapis
