>>282391999Remember when he thought 4 tactical fiends would be enough?

>>282392224Bros.... I think Horie didn't really knew Kakugo to have fallen for this
>>282392261Incredible page

>>282392373Stop it, Kakugo, you're making three thousand tormented souls blush!
>>282392358>Bottom right panelFREAKY
>>282392373Glad to see Kakugo has a sense of humor too
>>282392299Baddie Horie looks real good
>>282392396Thanks anon
>>282392299>Demon wings>Phantom of the Paradise mask>Takes the MC's girlDid that movie get a rerelease when this and Berserk's Golden Age arc were running or what?
>>282391999According to the google AI this volume was released in February 1995. The Aum Shinrikyo Sarin gas terrorist attack was in March 1995.
>>282392804Ruh-roh
>>282392261cute panty
>>282392804Cool coincidence. I really like how the toxic gas attack is depicted here too.
>>2823922612EZ
>>282392804It was a warning
>>282391825I really like this guy's design. Screams french to me
>>282392027Where does his supply of babes come from?
>>282392261>Mangaka writes h doujin parody page into his own mangaBased beyond belief
>>282397299there are a couple of fatties and other odd ones so I suspect they're just kidnapped rather than cloned or something
Dis shit gettin gud
>>282392522I've also been wondering about what it was about Phantom of the Paradise that it apparently spoke to both of these artists so much.
>>282392396What the fuck are those proportions?
I looked at the earlier version of this. It seemed funnier
>>282397418Supposedly there's a food shortage, but everyone except the condom trio looks good.
>>282392396Thank you for posting.
>>282392068It's weird how everyone acts like Horie is fat
>>282400726japanese standards
>>282397418I don't think a couple fatties automatically rules out clones. If I had infinite clones, I would fatten up a few just to spice things up with some variety.
>>282392068Today's menu : roasted penguin
>>282391612>>282391627Zero is cool. This amalgamation of thousands of warcrime vivisections represented by infinite screaming skulls wants to sidetrack to help Kakugo get laid before his deathmatch. What a bro.
>>282391935>>282391954>>282391980>>282391999Remember when anon thinks swarming Kakugo with low-level mooks was a reasonable tactic?
>>282392258She wouldn't have fallen for it if Kakugo had gone to hug her first.
>>282402710If they tried this closer to the school and residential areas it would have worked.
>>282403335He will just draw them away to an isolated area regardless in that case to minimize human casualties. But when it's a duel he will never resort to that tactic.
>>282400726She is THOUGH
>>282403287Please show your love to the girl you love anons
>>282392207How old are they supposed to be? I honestly like more innocent love that slowly progresses towards lust.
>>282392276She's so cute.
I remember Horie’s abduction being the midpoint of the series but we’re only at chapter 32 and it’s happened.Man this shit moves faster than I remember. This whole manga is just all-gas-no-breaks
>>282392373>Zero actually being wistful about peaceful timesWell I'll be dipped
>>2824062432nd year junior high. Kakugo was born on Christmas 1999, so he has that over Kenshiro as another humanity's saviour of the new century.
>>282406490>2nd year junior high*senior highThe story takes place in 2015
>>282402710It was mostly in jest, but i'm glad the manga showed what would happen if they tried to overwhelm him with numbersit would bother me otherwise, lol
>>282392456Yes, refreshing.
>>282406297It kinda was. When we had like only 80 chapters translated
>>282406297Wait until you see where Yamaguchi thinks the halfway point of the story is.
>>282406278Evil Horie is more of a sexy than cute imho
Chapter 33: First Love
Chapter 34: Tsumiko Horie
>>282414399Awww. He just wants to have memories...
>>282414900Ponta has a knack for drawing.
>>282414535>Horie Complete
>>282414650>>282414677Holy best bro. Zero is a real one
>>282414900>>>>>he looks somewhat suspicious
>>282414998This is a normal kid btw not a tactical fiend
>>282415377AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAThanks anon. Its sad seeing zero in pain :(
>>282415049>horie got stripped
>>282414943>3rd pannelAboslute kek
>>282414506disturbing
>>282415200Too bad she isn't a penguin, I would have lost it.Hope they find a way to save her, life without this cutie would be meaningless.
>>282415200nooo :(
>>282416375>Too bad she isn't a penguin>CaterpillarThere is still one more chance!
>>282414971Don't they usually introduce these guys with a fancy font title in bold letters "TACTICAL FIEND MEATBALL"?>>282416040What the fuck? Why does he look exactly like one then?
My favorite manga of all time. So infinitely charming, I don't have the time nor words but this series is mad special to me and I adore this arc especially, the entire raid on garan castle with armorless kakugo is pure kino. It really is full throttle until the end. I've always akined Apocalypse Zero to the game God Hand, they have a similar spirit.
Its really interesting how genuinely silly the manga is compared to the reputation the OVA gave the series in the west.
>>282416304I dont think she just got stripped.
>>282416750What would a fiend do at elementary school?
>>282415377
>>282418240Why is there an elementary school student whose face looks exactly like a tactical fiend's and whose foot is almost the same size as another student?
>>282418539He just got unfortunate bone structure, okay?! No need to be so rude!
>>282418539Mutations are no joke in this world
>>282415377zero make some great faces for a bunch of skulls
>>282418456AAAAAAAUUGGGHHHMY BREASTPLATE! MY BREASTPLATE IS RED HOT! HORIE YOU PENGUIN! YOU WEREN'T GOING FOR MY EYES! YOU WERE CHARGING UP YOUR LASER TO GIVE ME THE OL' SPICY BREASTPLATE!HOW COULD YOU GIVE YOUR PLATONIC LOVER THE SPICY BREASTPLATE HORIE!I should have made an edit of the full drawing but I am going to sleep now
>>282419865Kek, nice one
>>282414378Ngl I was half expecting something fucked up under that mask
>>282414506Uncle Go would be proud
>>282415377Thank you for posting.
>>282415219I was kind of expecting a backstory for the stitch slaves
Im really confused about something here, hopefully someone can fill me in. Chidikuro is supposedly based on the Berserk character Femto, Femto was basically a blip early in that manga and this series was being made during berserks golden age and the eclipse wouldnt happen untill right before this series finished its run.Despite the similar look i dont actually see how Femto had that much of an impression to inspire this character at that time.Am i missing something here?
>>282424963Chidikuro and Femto are based off of the same character. Also Chidikuro has a bit of Prince in his design too
Did the remake ever finish or get translated?
>>282424963Femto appears in like chapter 5 of Berserk anon...
>>282426861The translations picked up again finally. They're most of the way done.
>>282428126Yes, and basically not again untill the eclipse which was in like 1996, late 96.
>>282428943That means nothing anon. It was a huge, bombastic appearance as the main villain and Guts's entire motive for his journey, you don't get any more impactful than that. It wasn't a single pannel silhouette cameo.
>>282424963>supposedly based on femtoDid yamaguchi said this in an interview or something? I really don't think having a french looking, sniveling snake character with a falcon helmet is such an out there character concept to say "it must be traced from berserk"
>>282415324>>282415345>The armor's weak point is located in the front, the side that faces the enemy.
>>282432065It isn't a conventional weak spot. Plus, having the weak spot (if there is no way around it) on the front in a place where you can see and defend it is better than in a place where you can't, as fortified armor shells weren't designed for duel but for special forces in wartime.
>>282432210It's better to have it in the back where the enemy attacks won't reach you. Having it in the front is just asking for another spot to protect and for a stray bullet to get you.
>>282432256>It's better to have it in the back where the enemy attacks won't reach youIt is on the chest, that's a place you have to protect to begin with. Places it on the back, and you have no defense against artillery shrapnel or getting surrounded. Again, not designed for 1 on 1 duels.
>>282432313But the armor itself protects him. It's not unbreakable but it can withstand damage. Having a chink where most attacks are coming from will transform them from "they might kill me" to "they will kill me".
>>282432370We are talking about if it must to have a weakspot, ie a part that can't be as well protected for a functional reason, then it is better to have it on the front in this context. Of fucking course no one wants to have any weak spot, everyone wants the joints to be as strong as the breastplate. That isn't the point. And the weakspot isn't a conventional physical weak spot, as it will be explained next, but that is also besides the point of the placement on the armor.
>>282432450And I'm talking about the placement as well, where you shouldn't have it in the front. Even in a war context you are more likely to be hit in the front by bullets than it is in the back. So it's better to have it there.>And the weakspot isn't a conventional physical weak spot, as it will be explained nextIf there is a story reason for it then I'll wait and see it.
>>282416040I wouldn't exactly call him normal.
>>282425060All these years when I've heard someone reference phantom of the paradise in relation to Femto I'd assumed it was an engrish title of a Japanese tokusatsu thing, but I finally looked it up and it's an American musical.
>>282414865Evil horie is so sexy...
>>282434031You get what I meant
>>282391612Ewwww no thats how you get cooties!
