Chapter 18 - The Scroll Of Momochi {1}
>>289676794You'd think this was an adaptation of Quantum Leap with how many time jumps we're going through.
>>289677117>Billy Bat told me to run them over, officer
>>289677877ENTER
Done!
>>289676927>When she denounced me as a capitalist pig, that's when I fell in love.
>>289645462Don't tell me the huge twist will be that Kevin is the descendant of Judas or something
what the fuck am I reading
>>289677877>Japanese witness the power of anime
>>289678131Billy Bat.
>>289677877>>289677907>>289677877If I see that fucking bat one more time...
>>289678194Yo >:3
>>289677959I mean, wouldn't you?
>>289678194HERE YOU GO, ANON! WHATCHA GONNA DO?!
>>289678302>>289678431
>>289678131Not-Mickey Mouse control the world
>>289677285You know, I'd read a whole manga series about just these two. A taxi driver and his magic cartoon ornament leading him into helping other people is such an 80s anime concept.
>>289677561Momochi? This is the taxi driver's ancestor?
>>289677624>the source of all warring...there's a bat in there, isn't it?
>>289677877Oh godDAMMIT!
>>289678824Yeah, his ancestor had a castle and all he has is a taxi cab and a broken family.
>>289677183>>289677208>>289677240Love how everyone is completely left in a stupor. You just can't rage out after a scene like that.
>>289676849>Seems like you know your onions, sir.Newfag doesn't know about the filter.
>>289678953
>>289677039Just like the baka
>>289678713Yeah, could be a movie too
>>289677953Thanks OPI feel like I might repeat the same sentence every fucking dump nowI'm so fucking lost
>>289678131humanity is guided by a semiotic entity with mysterious intentions
>>289680265>c'mon draw
>>289680265At this point I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if something like this is actually happens in the manga.
>>289680265>>289680559Isnt that actually is?Or i misremember it?
whenever Billy Bat isn't on screen everybody should be asking "where's Billy Bat?"
>>289680836ok chuck
>>289676927Would have fallen as well.
>>289676955...Hits too close to home.
>>289677117I trust him.
>>289677208>>289677240Still gets me year later.
>>289681249You got told by schizo who hearing Mickey Mouse?
>>289677499I'm sure they will stick to that premise.
>>289677709Hey, it's those pills from LW&C.
>>289677907>The bat is already anticipating the dead bodies.
>>289681249They throw people out of the church in their wedding dress even in these times?
>>289677877I doubt it was intentional, but I'm really getting vibes of Aku from Samurai jack here.
bump
>>289680265Kino
>>289677117fuck yeah
>>289677240That was sweet. Almost as sweet as the unforgettable flavor of Golden Cola!™
>>289678877I'll be very disappointed otherwise
>>289677877AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I'M GOING INSAAAANE
Well that was crazy. Gonna catch up now.
>>289680559Now listen nigga. If you were a hyperadvanced - something - trying to communicate with lesser beings either lightyears away or on another plane of existence would you finna1. Drag your corporeal ass over there2. Find another way to interface with them remotely
>>289677877That fucking bat that I hate
>>289679393
>>289686029A cartoon bat though?
>>289686812obviously thats the manga trying to convey the idea to us.to the reader, the bat demons are gonna look like billy or the batboy, but in the ninja's case probably looks like an actual demon or some eldritch deity we mere mortals couldn't even be able to comprehend. same with Judas and his encounter with them, probably they looked like realistic bats or creepy black faced and pointy eared humans to him.
>>289686812If you think about it, why did something like Batman or Mickey Mouse become popular in the first place
I think Alice is more important than Billy Bat
>>289681249You're a racemixer?
>>289686215We LOVE Billy here
>>289677877
Is that a fucking bat? I'm going insane!
>>289677578fucking identical kek
>>289686812Of course. Look at the adults whose whole lives and personalities revolve around Superheros, Star Wars, Disney, and Star Trek. Create a character in that level, you can reach an individual through the masses.
>>289681249You let your 10/10 waifu slip away because your family "had some concerns?" Perhaps it's time you made a miracle happen. Listen to the Bat.
>>289686812Billy's design is really good though. I'd buy Kevin's comics if they were real.
I don't really gel with the mouse comparison, for me Billy is closer to Donald Duck.
>>289692038Because Billy Land
>>289693145Also things later make him feel a bit more like a Mickey Mouse stand in like real Chuck Culkin being sort of a stand in for Ub Iwerks while Hitler's favorite Jew is a sort of stand in for Walt Disney
>>289692038Also "[first name] [animal type]" name convention.
>>289677415So we're in Feudal Japan now. So I assume this means that this is going to explain how Billy became part of the "ancient texts" and go full circle back to 1949 Japan.
>>289677877This smug fucker holy shit
>>289688405Agreed. We should go to Alice.
>>289686885With Judas and the Ninjah I don't actually think there's any differemce here. After all, without knowing the concept of a cartoon character, seeing a living one would probably be the most eldritch shit possible.
>>289677208>>289677240I can practically hear the music playing over this.
>>289688405Who?
>>289688405>>>/vg/
>>289697041We love bats here
>>289696456Actually that's /vrpg/ material.
>>289697257>Billy will never feel this way toward you
>>289693933Last time someone listened to the bat and "went to Alice" half of world history got rewritten. Maybe sit this one out, Kevin.
>>289693933I think Alice SUCKS.
>>289676927BASED
go home and get ya fuckin shinebox
Bat bump
>>289677117>TENNOHEIKA BANZAI!!!
>>289677907That was Billy Bat, stupid
>>289686885That's interesting, and it would make sense for Billy to look different from what we the audience see to what the characters actually see. I wonder how much evidence there is to support this theory.

Chapter 20 - Scroll Of Momochi {3}
>>289703323goddamn
>>289703509Thanks, OP!I'm little lost here though
>>289703584>Not so spoilery answera lot of people, not just the ninjas have entered that cave, and they have encountered the bats there asking for the carrier, but so far, the story is centered about the ninjas.>REALLY spoilery answer that we wont see until later:a massive drawing of the bat is carved on the cave's walls, hence why the bats can manifest to people there. a ninja prior to the siblings found the cave, and copied the drawing into the forbidden scroll. the 'carrier' is the one carrying the copy so more people can draw the bats in the future and cause more misery.
>>289702717Brutal.
>>289703509Thank you OP
>>289697257BAT FLAPS
>>289702931damn it I knew this was gonna happen
>>289703447If this was Kevins Billy Bat he could fly...
>>289703056>>289703509from wikipedia:>Francis Xavier[a] (born Francisco de Jasso y Azpilicueta; 7 April 1506 – 3 December 1552), venerated as Saint Francis Xavier, was a Navarrese cleric and missionary. He co-founded the Society of Jesus and, as a representative of the Portuguese Empire, led the first Christian mission to Japan.[3][4]
>>289702947>back then, I really was a cowardYou still are, you son of a bitch.
>>289703016RIP bozo.
>>289704696Ohhh, so that's how Billy ended up in Japan.
>>289703323Even his own stomach betrayed him.
>>289708354idem
>>289703466If there's no body, he ain't dead.
>>289702648Bane?
Don't die, thread
>>289677877>you opened it and I came
>>289676927Best girl energy
>>289703509Thanks OP, ngl I'm a bit lost
>>28967749916th Century Boys
>>289710063Ok, we'll live.
>>289702815MONSTERbros...
>>289703466Shinobi mind.
>>289703509Thx buddy.
Chuck Culkin's Billy Bat is a FAKE. The voices in my head told me so. Don't get cucked by Culkin. Support the REAL Billy Bat by Kevin Yamagata.
>>289716122Sir... we asked you why you ran over fifty pedestrians
>>289716537Which pedestrians did you see, the white ones, or the black ones?
Bumpo
>>289716617You should know officer, were the corpses black or white?
>>289703509Thanks Anon, I'm really liking this so far.
>>289718518Yeah!
>>289703378Nobunaga's alway trying to start shit in Feudal Japan.
Bump
I don't know if dumping 3 chapters instead of 2 would work better, but man OPs chosen time sucks.
>>289725926He has to dump at night because bats are nocturnal.
>>289725926once a day is once a day
>>289725926I'm a wagie slave, please have mercy.>>289726517Hey, I'm glad someone else thinks the same. Chapter 21 - The Scroll Of Momochi {4}
>>289727139Ninja-kun had a hard life...
>>289727169Oh shit something insane is about to happen.
>>289727105>>289727169The rope is coming loose on its own...>>289727183Me when I see the fucking bat again
>>289727197
Chapter 22 - Scroll Of Momochi {5}
>>289727795Thank you OP, would you listen to the bat?
>>289727795Thanks, OP!Hate this gaslighting bat
>>289727810>would you listen to the bat?After being forced to kill two of my childhood friends,with the third trying to kill me for it, I would want nothing to do with the scroll honestly. .
>>289727203Man, Billy is a fucking asshole
>>289727350>bury itFucking burn it.
>>289728128Fucking Eldritch beings, i tell ya...
>>289727337Oji-sans... are strong!
>>289727795Was it the white one? Or black one?
>>289728828The bats will never say it outright which one is which, but the Black one is the one who wants to cause death and misery by manipulating people. the white one is cryptic and likes to give clues about possible futures.the Bat with the taxi driver is clearly the white one at least. who knows who is the bat Kevin listened to so far.
Places that fucking bat's been spotted>20th century American comics>20th century Japanese manga>The moon>Judaea>Feudal Japan
>>289727183Oh great, this Aku motherfucker is back.
>>289729130FOOOOOOOOOOOORISH SHINOBI!
>>289727795Thanks OP
>>289728128It's weird, it seems like whether Billy is benevolent or malevolent depends entirely on the person he's attatched to at the moment.
>>289729130He's the titular character, the story is about him.
>>289727139>It's tough killing friendsThat's the kind of thing you say when you've got experience.
>>289714730He's right thoughJohan isn't real
>>289727795Thanks OPI'm not lost today>>289728828Black!
>>289727251Oh wow, what a bastard.
>>289727795>what if the one ring was Mickey Mousewhat a wild ride this has been
>>289727337Figured the dude was a stone cold killer. Beware of an old man in a profession where men usually die young.
>>289727139>Pfft, rookie numbers!>Oh, they were your friends. Yeah that makes sense.
>>289727203I love this asshole.
>>289727266>>289727298Reversal motherfucker!
>>289727715Knowing what the scroll promises it couldn't be any more true. Just the chance for a do-over is something most will kill for.
>>289727795Thx mate.This is how Johan got people into a frenzy.
>>289725926>>2897269772 chapters is fine
>>289726977>>289726988I was gonna make a pickle rick joke, but then thought better of it
>>289729600Maybe it depends whether it's white or black
>>289727621kirishitans... are STRONG
>>289729600there's an argument to be made that, whatever Billy really is, what he represents is inspiration.
>>289676849I gave a japanese dude the thumbs down, and then I later learned that the thumbs down gesture in japanese means "go to hell" which is very strange because I don't think I've ever seen it in anime before. But you really shouldn't do the thumbs down in Japan, I guess
>>289676927WTF they employed a WOMAN???
>>289678877The Warring Driver
>>289709033you're a bat guy
>>289706602No, Japan is one of the twelve tribes of Israel, that's how it went from Judas to Japan, and then the Portuguese found Billy in Japan and took it to America where Disney used it to create Mickey Mouse
>>289703292>invisitbilityhope someone got fired for that blunder
>>289724140ambitious little fucker
>>289703447imagine living on an island nation and not being able to swim
>>289727105porridge sounds so much more appetizing than gruel despite being the exact same thing
>>289727567behold, a man of God
>>289729004don't forget it also showed up on a 21st century basket weaving forum
