Hiroto A BEST.Hopefully nothing bad happens to him
Chihiro owes Iori sex.
Asking too much from him and from hokazono.Design and sorcery are definitely top notch
>>287566604This going to be a long ass arc.
Definitely one of the most interesting chapters in the series.
Wielders... Assemble!!!
Sojo survival rate? Never been higher than before.
Anyone gonna redump the chapter?
>>287566669>mecha sojo SOON
>>287566656>wielders>image only features one wielder and two random jobber faggots
>>287566651I love it when we get lore dump chapters.
>>287566604What do we think about Chihiro's inherent sorcery?
>>287566669>>287566681BELIEVEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Who was in the right in this version if the Genpei War?
>>287566656God they're so cool and strong....oh and uh Hiruhiko is also there I guess.
>>287566704I thought he was stroking the tip
*ahem*Chihiro is half Mikaboshi (his mom got BUG'd), that's why Akemura is seething so much, it's also why there was that whole genetic test plotline that so far went nowhere
>>287566704It's really cool and I do want to see it come back in the present, but I just don't see how Chihiro or Akemura could ever use it and Enten/Magatsumi at the same time.
>>287566717Doesn’t matter, forcing the mikaboshi was cruel and caused seitei and all the shit that resulted from it
>>287566717The Soga clan have never been wrong about anything ever, they're Japans golden clan.
>>287566754>*Forcing the mikaboshi into the seaSorry I posted too quickly, ukizane just gets me so mad…
>>287566757
>>287566717Mikaboshi ofc
what s second thread...
>>287566754>cruel*NecessaryAlso the Seitei War could have been avoided if the Mikaboshi just chilled the fuck out and didn't vindicate Ukima. If they needed Datenseki to not starve or appease their 'God' they should have tried diplomatic means of acquiring it first like trade.
Tokyo was promised to us 1000 years ago
>>287566779
>>287566604He's gonna get clapped, too powerful and cool.Hiroto will get offed, putting Japan at a disadvantage without their strongest sorcerer, Kunishige will even the playing-field with the EBs.
Karate chop Mikaboshi in half
>>287566669Sojo is never coming back.
>>287566754Don't attack diplomats and then blame them for being the reason a war starts, Mikaboshi
Ok, hear me out. When you contract with a blade, cause of the new acquired sorcery, Typically a normal person body CANT have 2 types of sorcery so if you have an original one its gets sealed under the EB Ones. Right ?Now. What IF either A) Magatsumi's Leech is not a sorcery, just life drain. (We know all Akemura Tech are just plain applications of releasing all that infinite Mana Pool)B) Akemura has the same rare constitution that Hakuri (AKA, body can house 2 types of Sorcery)What im going to isWill you call it an asspull if further down the line Akumura shows that he can use Soga Clan's Kurotsushi WHILE CONTRACTED with Magatsumi?
>>287566805>Mikaboshifags actually think this
>>287566740>Magatsumi breaks>Akemura starts using Kurotsuchi
... I was dumping in thai wasn't I? Great.
Always bet on BIG Mashiro.
I'm not a footfag, but....
>>287566797How would anyone chill out after having his entire clan literally thrown into the ocean and left to die? Alongside all their retainers and supporters? Who wouldn’t want revenge? At least akemura committed genocide properly
>>287566863And I can't even delete them, amazing.
We need a slur for the Mikaboshi. Islander feels like one but it just isn't there yet
>>287566862Magatsumi breaking is very end of the manga stuff. Unless Akemura isn't actually the final boss but I don't see who else it could be since he's by far the strongest character in the setting.
>>287566894
>>287566891It was a 1000 years ago, they gotta learn to let shit go. Their revanchist mindset got them all wiped out in the end.
>>287566920
>>287566863Thought brazilian were the best for single pages, Thai for spreads. Whatever the case, they are both better than En
FootCHAD
>>287566740>Kunishige never put the sorcery stipulation on (the) Entenor>Chihiro reforges (the) Enten without the stipulation ez azzpull
>>287566902Mikkers? Mikikes?
>>287566942
>>287566842Pointless, Magatsumi is already broken enough
>>287566952Footfag manga I guess, must be that Tarantino influence.
>>287566974
>>287566907Yura obviously.
>>287566842It would be an asspull, but I'd be okay with it since I want to see Kurotsushi being used in the present. It's cool.
>>287566996
>>287566982Gravity Tech is never Pointless
>>287566604Really impressed by how hokazono was able to make him seem strong even with all of us knowing he is gonna get maimed next chapter
>>287567000Yura's the main villian/final villain. But not the final boss, I don't see how he could ever get on Akemura's level unless he starts getting some major powerups after getting his body back.
>>287566881>>287566952>>287566984Wrong feet
>>287567020
Did Akemura unlock Kurotsuchi prior to wielding his EB?
>>287566955>the EntenThe anime better not do this shit.
>>287567047
>>287567020>>287567047I love those rare instances that after a Sneak attack. There is no Panic or "WOW" just straight to business
>>287567057Most likely, It'll allow him to fight in the war before getting Magatsumi which we know doesn't happen until pretty late into the game.
>>287567072
You will never be that dude
>>287567034Because he is really strong, Kurotsushi is one of the more powerful sorceries we've seen so far. It's just that Ariu is stronger.
what a shit thread
>>287567093
>>287566877>Inb4 he dies in the final battle of the war
>>287567119
The more hot and strong Hiroto is, the greater the shock when he is beheadedHokazono intend that
>>287567143
>Chihiro just can't into sword forging >Gets mentored by Subaru
>>287567143>Mikaboshi are nearly immortalWhen you think about it, it's a miracle the 5 standard Enchanted Blades were able to halt their advance.
>>287567164
>>287566717>genpei warQRD?
>>287567167I really hope Takeru doesn't offscreen Chihiro reforging Enten and Kuregumo.
>>287567189
THECLOUD GOUGER
>>287567217Fuck you Camilla.
>>287567210
>>287567237I'm happy as long as the black marks on the hole's walls aren't from hiroto exploding.
>>287567143How long can someone survive with a wound like that? I'm assuming blood loss is the critical issue here.
>>287567217its so stupid and feels so out of place with the rest of the swords that still have their japanese names
>>287567253Rape soon.
>>287567265They have magic body reinforcement, he'll be fine.
>>287567192The legendary civil war of medieval JapanFought between the Minamoto and Taira clansThe descendants of the victorious Minamoto clan remain the ruling class in modern Japan
>>28756664650 chapters overall at least.
>>287567045
>>287566604Shit that was a fast thread.
>>287567327Maybe until the anime? If it's spring 2027 it'd be just a year.
>>287567299Yeah well, a huge part of that magic reinforced body is gone.
>>287567381>Maybe until the anime?Possibly, but if that is the case I hope the anime doesn't come out until late 27 so the flashback lasts longer.
Azami cover soon.
>>287567265He should be able to hold on until Shiba can get him to a doctor, hopefully Ariu doesn't brutalize him any further.
>>287567533I wonder what sumika even does, shiba should teleport them ASAP
>>287567582And oh yeah, shiba STILL isn't injured so... fun stuff.
>>287567582It may have just popped Hiroto into a pile of gore, so whatever it does is extremely dangerous and they needed to leave the second it was clear war was inevitable.
>>287567582You know how in the previous page it's talking about how the Mikaboshi king used datenseki powers to make a habitable home underwater?Sumika means dwelling/home so it must be some related terraforming power.
Reminder
>>287567626Let's hope hokazono isn't dumb enough, I mean it when I say the flashback needs more popular characters around until the bearers appear.
>Island was encased in pine trees>Island above the surface was surrounded by pine trees>The meeting was held underneath a pine treeHmmmmmmmmmm
>>287567649He wonHe fucking won
>>287567652The bearers are probably gonna start appearing like, right after as the new volume starts
>>287567652I think Shiba, Kunishige, Akemura, Mashiro, Subaru, and Chiaki are all well liked enough to hold down the fort until characters like Samura and Uruha start popping up.
>>287567689 (Me)Also Azami should pop up soon as well.
>>287567533Right, that's my point. Mashiro has...3 min (?). Nah nvm, just remembered that moment when evacuating everyone before the centipede hits, Shiba is really fast.
>>287567649it should also be noted there are other characters named Hiyuki, while there's only one (1) Tafukufirst Hiyuki post is from 2015, first Tafuku post is from 2024he won so hard it's unreal
>>287567649The anime will fix this, Hiyuki will win.
>>287567754Majority of those are our Hiyuki (I think).
>>287566656haruhikos left index finger is broken
>>287567253the magatsumi must be such an afront to the mikaboshi, the very existence of enchanted blades must be a transgression to begin with, but the magatsumi goes the extra mile by mimicking their techniques and to top it all off its wielded by a Soga. it's such an insane fuck you to them, makes you wonder if Kushinige was also a shokokuphobe
>t*e Magatsumi
>>287566604is the story still about mc's revenge or has it shifted?
The SHITnuchi—The POO Striker—The MAGAtsumi
>>287567860Shifted into something bigger but it's obviously gonna come back later.
>>287567860Shifted, but he's still going to get revenge.
>>287567061>Stopped calling the island sh*****>2 chapters in a row with transliterated sorceryI think the anime team slapped some sense into her
>>287567814>if Kushinige was also a shokokuphobeWho isn't?
>>287567914We can only hope, KGB doesn't deserve the dogshit English tl it's been getting. Wish we had a hq fan translation.
>>287567860He has a bigger issue now.
>>287567765the reason's she's dressed like this? yep, it's Tafuku
Ariu? The strongest.
7 days until Jump PressWhat's your biggest want for the Kagurabachi animeHonestly I hope it's weekly, I don't wanna wait 6 years to get to the flashback arc
>>287567969>strong>hot>royaltyhe's perf->eats bugs>basement dwelling neet at the end of the day
>Subaru's blade>Lolibaba's blade>Tobimune>Kuregumo>Kumeyuri>MagatsumiI'm gonna guess this was the order they were forged in.
>>287568016He just needs to meet a nice Japanese girl who can fix him.
>>287568016Bug juice is yummy anon
>>287567969>strongest
>>287567914>Stopped calling the island sh*****Because it wasn't called shokoku in this chapter at all. That's what Japs call it and the history lesson was from the prince just calling it literally "island". Don't get your hopes up.>I think the anime teamLol
>>287568016>>basement dwelling neet at the end of the dayLITERALLY me
>>287568013No streaming release bullshit where all the episodes are dropped at once, and for a very good OST I can listen to while I read the manga so even if everything else sucks I still have that. Kind of like with Tokyo Ghoul.
>>287568027im gonna stick to my headcanon that the magatsumi was forged first but deployed last because of how unstable, raw and unrefined its powers are
>>287568067I remember drinking this shit as a kid, am I an honorary Mikaboshi?
>>287568070Magatsumi>>>>>>sumika
>>287568070>strongestest
>>287568107Cool and would make sense that they'd mess up on their first successful Enchanted Blade and accidentally make it to powerful. But it being the last blade also makes sense since at that point they were just trying to make something strong enough to end the deadlock and kick the Mikaboshi out of Japan.
>>287568013>Honestly I hope it's weekly,Might be a bit of a hot take but with how cypics and shochiku talk about their ideals for the series I think that's the only way it'd get that big with no pandemicNot like it'd be hard to just add a month or two of "hey uh we need money let's do this mission for this corpo where we fight X filler Yakuza boss" every once in a while
>>287568164>"hey uh we need money let's do this mission for this corpo where we fight X filler Yakuza boss"That's something I've wanted to see in the actual manga so it'd be cool if they added that in the anime as filler.
>>287566996>last panelThis would have been a double spread in any other manga but in Kagurabachi it’s just a normal panel
>>287568203The power resides in being understated.
>>287568164>cypics and shochiku talk about their ideals for the series I think that's the only way it'd get that big with no pandemicHow big are they talking? Because I think it's possible the series could become popular enough that it turns Cypic into a big named studio that people want to see animate their favorite animeless manga, but they should still keep their expectations in line with reality.
>>287568183>>287568164Idk if it's just me but he definitely writes the story in a way that opens the door for filler anime stuff with a lot of multi day gaps alongside offhanded comments like the job stuff
>>287568268Shochiku wants the series to make them as big as Toei on the worldwide scale, or be a big stepping stone for it at least, lol
>>287568107Why would Japan store the blade and purposely lose the war for more than a year?
>>287568280I'd say that's the case for early Kagurabachi, like Vs. Sojo and early Rakuzaichi. However after a certain point so much shit is going down in such a small amount of time it would be really hard to naturally put any filler in.
Scat
>>287568327Because>try to use magatsumi>go insane or explodewould explain it.
So is Chihiro going to forge his grandpapi powers of crushing bugs into Eneleven or is this just another heritage thing he’s never gonna need to know about
>>287568168Takeru knew what he was doing here.
>>287568341I mean yeah it kinda stops after the 4 day pause right before the Kyoto bit, but the events after that are also literally like 2 days in universe
>>287566996Hmm....
>>287568372
>every diplomat is dead>they are insisting they murder them all>SOMEHOW japan and the sogas are to blame
>>287568349>Mashiro tries to wield Magatsumi>Immediately implodesI guess Akemura is just different.
>>287568341You could still pretty easily do some stuff with Samura reminiscing about his time training with Uruha and Itsuo, easy 4 episodes at least
soon
>>287568450Japan and the Sogas should have just handed over all of their Datenseki and land that could potentially have Datenseki appear far into the future, because those are reasonable demands.
>>287568455>4 episodes of WPS spam garbagehorrifying
>>287568467I NEED Lolibaba.
>>287566717The funny thing is that the Genpei War happened because the leader of the Taira was convinced to show mercy to the Minamoto survivors, who later murdered every Taira male when they came back and won
>gaping woundPlease die already and stop talking you annoying shit
>>287568495Next volume, anon, next chapter is the JOBBENING FOR REAL (we are two chapters late) and the war declaration should follow
>>287568469Stfu Mikaboshi scum, you'd go for the entire world if no one puts a stop to your stupid demands
>>287568309Kek, they're nuts. At least season 1 will look like pure sex. Hopefully they don't start mistreating the series post season 1 just because it didn't become the biggest thing of all time.
>>287568560What if...
>>287568490IWPS is the greatest style though.

>>287568799>Yukisada cover appearance before Shiba
Just have the anime be two cours and release at the right time and it should become big as long as the animation is a normalfag magnet
>>287568892All this plus a dash of luck/deal with the devil for good luck.
>>287568892Kagurabachi is already normalfag magnet as it avoids EVERYTHING normalfags may hate
>>287568919>deal with the devilinterdimensional sumo entity actually
>>287568892>should become bigNothing has been able to do it since the pandemic, I think it genuinely would have to be weekly to have a real chance at being what they want it to be
>>287568962I hope Takeru recycles Tafuku's design for his next manga as well and the noodle arm girl. She was very cute fodder.
>>287569004I think the long arm girl might be alive, there was no blood when Kiri stabbed her and she was weakened by Bingo's down syndrome dragons
>>287568358He'll do some bullshit that lets him use it and Enten at the same time.
>>287569048KUROtsuchi
>>287569046I like your optimism even if I may not have it myself.
>>287569103I know what bottom right is a reference to and I hate it.
>>287568963>Nothing has been able to do it since the pandemicI wonder why that is, I understand why it was easier for things to become big during the pandemic. But why is it such a struggle now when it wasn't this hard before the pandemic?
I don't want it to get more popular
>>287568963I mean, frieren's anime made it normalfag's anime of choice, super hard.Like, it may not sell a million (easily clears it with digital) but i's STUPIDLY big.
Chihiro will obviously get his sorcery at some point, but when?Against Pinkshit?Yura?Akemura?
>>287569148I just want it to get popular enough that it gets a full good quality anime adaptation, a game that isn't total shit, and a lot of porn. That's all I ask for.
>>287569219>and a lot of porn. That's all I ask for.it already does, you just don't like its... genre.
>>287569207>Against Pinkshit?Pinkshit has to get a new rival because Chihiro-chan will never notice him, but who the fallback rival will be is the question.
>>287569252Uruha.>user of his sword>murdered his harem
>>287569246Yes, and that better change with the anime.
>>287569274And Uruha should die to him.
Carp dragon sword soon
>>287569162Yeah for like a few months and then it fell off after multiple year wait and a really short season (excluding porn, I guess)
>>287569292Kino
>>287568963>I think it genuinely would have to be weeklyI don't watch much currently releasing anime, but almost everything still comes out weekly, right? Besides Stone Ocean, I can't think of the last time an anime that could've become really big not doing so because it was released in batches.
>>287569318Bercause the author writer duo are lazy as shit, they barely managed to put out a single volume for the anime.And the anime would have been huge had it gotten to el dorado.
>>287569318That's how almost everything is now due to fried attention spans.
Live action NOW
>>287569282Me on the right
>>287569336Weekly anime means basically non stop, like one pieceSeasonal would be the 1 12-24 episode release drop and then waiting for like 2 years for another oneStone ocean was a batch release which is segments of an anime dropped all at once
>>287569314The fishies must come back or I'm dropping this manga.
Chihiro will climb the "wall"
>>287569345Which is why I think it'd have to be weekly, or very close to weekly like the new One Piece schedule
>>287569351>Slicing your own hand off to perfect the cosplayM-Masaka...
Imagine 24 episodes in 2027 and 24 in 2028, with seitei war in 29, all high quality.
>>287569367well that's certainly not happening.
>>287569387He's not "ready" for that "yet"
>>287566604Hiroto is so cool
So why is the kagurabachi guy degraded into some gag character?
>>287569412>adaption>all high qualityYeah. Sure.
>>287569412No way, at least not the high quality part. Season 2 will probably be 29 and Seitei War 31.
until i see anime there is no anime

>>287569434Who?
>>287569492The main character
>>287569520He wasn't, if you mean why he's not in the story right now it's because we're at the start of a flashback arc that takes place before he was even born.

> People thinking Akemura isn't going to unlock Kurotsuchi during the flashbackDo you guys really think Hokazono is going to have Akemura do no fighting till the latter part of the war when Magatsumi begins to be used? Just like how Chiaki unlocked the clan sorcery, Akemura will also.
Hello, reddit.
>>287570078>Just like how ChiakiThat was just luck. Akemura is "peerless", of course he will.
>>287570078Obviously he'll unlock it so he can partake in the war before he gets Magatsumi, but I wonder if we'll see any other members of the Soga clan fight in the war. Would give Akemrua even more reason to wipe out the Mikaboshi if they obliterated almost all of his clan during the war.
>>287570078>Kurotsuchi AkemuraI want akemura to crush me into the floor and question me
Chiaki's life has more value than every single Mikaboshi's life combined.

>>287571810I'm guessing he's like Hiyuki where both characters will be important just not until a while after their introductions, Ikuto came back so Kazane and Hiyuki (especially Hiyuki) certainly will as well.
>>287571801I mean he even did it at his own expense but as >>287571825 shows the mental conditioning was too strong
>>287571825It's in my opinion the most kino scene in the series so far. I hope we get more like that during the flashback
>>287567164>Reaching out to touch Ariu as he walks past themSeems like the Mikaboshi loved him, wonder if he got overthrown with the other royals or if he dies during the war and his loss plus the Mikaboshi getting btfo is what caused the royal family to be overthrown?
>>287571962I don't know if I would consider it the most kino scene so far, but it's definitely up there.
>>287571810He will be a semi-important side character eventually
>>287572058kino=dramatic impact
>>287572070It would be funny if Char/Iori never heal his severed arm and he just has to have a roboarm for the rest of the manga.
>>287572156They won't heal anything because he's dead inside the Janitor's closet.
>>287572206>It's a blend of YAAAY juice and bug juice
>>287572239>YAAAY juice
I would join a rock worshiping cult if they gave me bug powers.
>>287572263I'm not sure if I want Yura to get his body back right away or for it to be made a process that some drama can be milked from and allow Akemura to explore Yura's memories a little.
>>287572353More build up is always good, I fear that Takeru will rush once we get out of the flashback though, I don't think he's going to bother much with an interim mini arc before Chihiro reforges Enten and we go back to almost pure people fight.
>>287572425I got that same fear as well, I really don't want him to just rush past Chihiro reforging Enten but it's possible. While people will want to see Chihiro fighting again after him being gone for so long, it shouldn't come in the way of good character moments. This arc taking a bit before the action started up gives me a little hope he'll show some restraint.
>>287566717Clearly, Soga were wrong since they didn't finish the Mikaboshi off.
>>287572495One can really tell when the zoomer writing kicks in
>>287572504To be fair, they tried to. It's hard to account for a rock God pulling some shit out of his ass allowing an entire island of people to survive underwater.
>>287572504Soga's goal wasn't to save the world, but to seize power for himselfOnce he had driven Mikaboshi away, didn't care whether they lived or died
>>287572664The Sogas are a benevolent clan who do what they must to protect Japan, sinking the Mikaboshi to the bottom of the sea was necessary.
Second threads still suck
>>287572745You're not going to like post anime threads...
>>287572745>Stabbed his own nephew in the heart>Afterwards his only regret was not decapitating himAkemura is one stone cold bastard, might be a good thing Chiaki isn't around to see what he's become, all though her not being around probably played a big part in that.
Power scaling is whack.There's no reason Akemura couldn't murk the Chihiro's ragtag freedom fighter group remotely from anywhere in the country.
>>287572871Doesn't know where they're at or is just underestimating the hell out of them not knowing Chihiro is capable of reforging Enten.
>>287567665i mean it seems fucking obvious he is an islander or maybe a non islander mikaboshi that still survived.
>>287572944He's not underestimating him, he was very clear that he made a mistake in not making absolute sure he killed Chihiro. But yeah he's not all-knowing, he can't just randomly figure out their location and instantly pop up over there.
>>287572871Not even owl could pin point Chihiro like that.
>>287572988Would be cool if Chihiro and friends have to go underground and sneak around so Akemrua doesn't find out where they are and wipe them out. Since he controls the government now he can make them public enemy #1 and have every government official/citizen keep an eye out for them.
Y’know, Kagurabachi is much more of a tragedy than an edgekino story. Don’t think anyone would have predicted that back in the Sojo arc
>>287573327There's still a good bit of edegekino, but it has leaned more into being a tragedy overtime and that's definitely going to be felt towards the end of this arc when things start going horribly wrong for the good guys. I hope Chiaki's death ends up feeling a turning point where after she's killed everything just starts going wrong.

>>287568124Yes and you will be crushed like one.
>>287575826yep, and it'll be overthreads will be unbearable for a few weeks and then we'll have a grace period before the anime airs

>>287575862It's like 21 hours after the chapter
Nothing is going to happen after the anime announcement
>>287575913Oh right, well, ignore that part I guessStill gonna feel weird, hopefully they do a cool trailer
>>287575931Yeah...
I hope we get to hear a bit of the first opening.
Hakuri?>shit
The Mikaboshi deserved to get Soga'd. There isn't a single redeeming quality to any of them from what we have seen so far. Tokyo doesn't belong to them just because they were kicked out centuries ago

>>287576167>No AzamiNYOOO>Chihiro solo coverWill go nice with the anime obi tho
>>287576167weird choice
>>287576167Yeah this is 100% an anime reveal volume cover
>>287576167AKA BEHIND HIDING
>>287576200No other reason to make it a solo cover desu
>>287576167I hope vol12 has Akemura.
>>287576167If we somehow don't get an anime announcement then why the hell is it Chihiro instead of Azami?
>>287576264Just fucking wait for the Seitei war volumes to have Chihiro in them
>>287576298Baby Chihiro will definitely be on one of them
We'll need to teach them newfaggots PROPERLY
hope that at least the OST is kinohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6YdDiaTri0
>>287576167Azami and Yura got robbed
>>287576167Where does it stack up?
>Mashiro's only relevance is to be not-Azami until Azami ENTERs
>>287576167Aka looks so realistic compared to the other fish it's kinda funny
>>287576628unironically a forced cover
>>2875766281 is iconic.2 is cool.3 is boring.4 at least isn't BLACKED.5 has /ourguy/.6 has Pinkshit and Faguha.7 is Samurabachi.8 is once again Pinkshit and IWPShit.9 is the worst.10 is a little too cluttered, but otherwise refreshing.
>>287576360Xigbar sama....
Fuckkk a bit sad to get another Chihiro solo cover with almost the same framing as Volume 3 and 9 but I guess it works better for anime than one of the main villains or Azami
Still mad about vol9
>>287576167ngl Hokazono has to improve his cover game.
>>287576167>>287576628Technically the first solo cover if you don't count 9?
>>287566881hag feet disgusting
>>287576628>>287576167yeah his covers have always been kinda weakI like 2 and 3 the most
>>287566646>>287566604DAMN THIS STORY JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER!Whens the last time we got a good flashback arc that wasnt ass?Naruto flashback arcs were ass and so were bleach flashback arcs.Only good bleach flashbac arc we never got was the small showing of the original quincy war with the original gotei 13
I fucking hate pinkshit
>>287576904Shibabachi is better than Chihirobachi
>>287576852And 1
>>287566669Let him rest in peace!He gave us a hell of a good first arc!
>>287576915Chihiro...
I actually like his covers, they’re better than if we just got random solo character vaguely related to the events, there’s less pattern, and it’s more interesting to speculate. But he leans into close-ups a bit too much, especially with the last 3. New Chihiro one will blend with 9th. IMO the best covers are 2, 6 and 10. Initially disliked the 7th, but it’s quite all right now.
>>287566704>>287566604So is this guy a relative of Chihiro and Akemura Soga?!I wonder if its on Chihiros dads side or his mothers side of the family?
>>287566669>Sojo force ghost embedded into the blade as away of foreshadowing Samura's return at the end of the series.Alas I truly see
>>287576966you can't be fucking serious

>>287576966Are you autistic or what’s with reaction images and acting like retard, obviously Soga is mother’s side, everyone knows this. Or trolling before bump limit at 7AM
>>287577000Good morning sir.
>>287574827Being a badass and still one of the best characters still ranking up their even with akemaru in terms of peak Aura
>>287574827fun
>>287576989This one, Chapter 95 (should've been Volume 9 cover), Chapter 77. 53 (lead page one) is the most ugly
>>287576966Essentially cousin first removed or otherwise. Now fuck off dummy.
>>287577018Good morning friend
>>287576628I only like the first 4. Covers are probably the weakest part of this series.

Remember when Samura got beat by a teenage boy?
>>287577640no
Kuguri will NEVER be a kino
>decide to pick up this series on a whim>buy the first 2 volumes cause nothing beats a good book in hand (also to avoid binging)This series is really good so far. I hope Sword Batman kills more bad guys.
Remember this asspull?
the more we know about the war the more I think either A) Akemura is pity as fuck or B) There are some mind corruption shenanigans involved.
>>287577691It's all our sword batman does, also get mindbroken every arc.
>>287577691>Sword BatmanHe's a glowy now
>>287578454He's going to be fighting the glowies now, anon.Akemura is king glowie.
>>287577640He never did.He got TALK NO JUTSU'd into sacrificing himself without achieving his goals.
>>287570078I think there's a decent chance this flashback ends before the Malediction even happens. I definitely doubt we'll see the fight against him. If it shows the entire war it's gonna be the same length as fucking Golden Age.

>>287578766You know it's bad when (thanks to the translation feature) you have needs complaining about western takes on Kunishige.
I found a plot hole, If they had completely stripped Syoukoku of the Datenseki after winning the war, there would have been no need for genocide.Without the Datenseki, the Mikaboshi are harmless savage.Akemura is war schizo.
>>287578876how is that a plot hole?
>>287578876Maybe he did try.Or the kodoku is doing it.
>>287578876>>287578876>If they had completely stripped Syoukoku of the Datenseki after winning the warThe Mikaboshi lost the Datenseki bc Japan barely has any Datenseki left and their giant Datenseki god-stone in their secret underwater island is presumably hundreds of tons of that material, yet it's a rare substance in the current day of the story - meaning that something happened to cause all that Datenseki to just disappear.
>>287578622Chihiro shouldn't have done anything, the manga would be over
>>287579009>meaning that something happened to cause all that Datenseki to just disappear.They can't enter Mikaboshi island, the kodoku prevents it.
He looks hot in this angle
>>287579036looks like a girl
>>287579041>no eyelashesNot an anime girl
>>287579036Erotic and mad.Perfect.
>>287578728>a manga inside another mangaIt's always a great concept.
>>287579208I'm glad he's taking his time, honestly.
>>287579237Jump honestly owes him being able to develop this flashback properly with good pacing even if sales take a hit.He can afford this.
>>287566920>>287566894Seriously? THIS is Shokoku? Just a bunch of people living in a big cave? They lived underground, eating bugs, for 1000 years? Just in a fucking cave, surrounding a big Datenseki? This is massive retardation and quite frankly doesn't make sense to me, they HAVE to have some kind of civilization, even if it was just to make their clothing.
So why do you think Kunishige stopped at 6 blades?A) Ran out of MaterialsB) Magatsumi literally ended the War.
>>287579266They live underwater, it's not just a shitty cavern.
>>287579270Because the underground people had six princes and he likes the symmetry>>287579266I assume it was more than one cave and that was just the special cave for important meetings.
>>287579270Seems like with the life contracts in place to hold magatsumi in place they could finally deploy it, no point in continuing afterwards.
>>287579248Well, he's spending all the first volume in just the setup and they get notice on how the chapter is doing in 3-4 weeks, so it shouldn't be too bad.
>>287579285The scale of what's shown in this page >>287566942 implies to me that they just live in that chamber, especially with all the "we cannot let them seize the throne/stone" babble and how they reverently reached out to Ariu. Right now based on what we've seen it is pretty safe to assume that the people of Shokoku just lived in a big cave eating bugs for 1000 years. Praying we get some more insight into their culture next chapter that might give more of a glimpse at their actual civilization, if they even have one.
>>287579331Anon, you literally see the island in an earlier chapter, protected by a barrier, and the flashback on the kodoku show them having buildings.
>>287579331Forgot to add but this chapter also gives me the impression that the Mikaboshi are somehow immortal and we're dealing with a similar situation to what's going on in Yomi no Tsugai (QRD for those you don't read, the main villain group in that series are a bunch of immortals trapped in an underwater village)
>>287579343I think they are less immortal and more undying.People live and die, you have babies and old people, there's a proper life cycle.
>>287579339>Anon, you literally see the island in an earlier chapter, protected by a barrierYeah but that was after is resurfaced, they were underwater for the better part of 1000 years.>and the flashback on the kodoku show them having buildings.I forgot about this, hopefully this is still a proper glimpse at Shokoku at won't just end up being some kind of Mangaka forgot moment.
>>287579398I mean, THE fight takes place on the island, akemura is literally waiting the rest there.
