>>290103236Baku-san bullies the near-sighted...
>>290102983Yes my favorite comic book thread. Doumo OP
>>290102983Oh come on, where's the thread subject...
>>290103330KajiIt's old maidWhat the fuck is there to remember
>>290103313I forgot...
>>290102983>>290103027You may notice Baku wore his suit differently in different phases of his life. This is a reference to William Shatner's 1978 performance of 'Rocket Man' where the suits represent different aspects of the self. (I lied)
you forgot the subject
>>290103188>it was in that moment, that Usogui knew
>>290103474Hmmm, Bakubros?
It's so bizarre that THIS was the only arc that got adapted into an animation, or if I'm wrong it was an audio drama or something like that
>>290103144Camera panel, cheating mentioned. An obvious hint in hindsight.Also I actually like the inductive reasoning to uncover the tricks. We get told repeatedly, assumptions are the most dangerous thing in gambling. So don't deduce, aka don't work from what you assume is true. Instead "Look at the facts, and find an idea that fits those facts. Imagination is more important."
>>290103474Bakubros... did we get slurped up instead?
>>290103506HE GOT THE CATCHPHRASE THROWN BACK AT HIMTHROW THE TOWEL
>>290103504 Great foreshadowing indeed
>>290103188>>290103209There are like 2 pages in an upcoming arc where we see Baku's inner monologue during a moment like this and having that context gives a lot to pages like this.
>>290103236Testing the limits of his hypothesis. Man for someone who likes this stuff this manga is the best thing ever.
>>290103277Wipe it up, reffy.
>Yes, make sure to bring the giant scaffold of doom on the dot>The one with the bone motif, Sir?>Exactly
>>290103493Yep an OVA. This is Sako's favorite gamble in the series(???) I mean it's good but.. this one is not the fan favorite let's just say that.
>>290103506Baku really lies? Sonna...
>>290103749Why the FUCK would you design it like thisWhat is WRONG with you
>>290103526The three musketeers
>>290103773The kengan referees are mostly massive CHVDS.
>>290103824W-Waku Waku...?
>>290103567>>290103587Testing the "time lag".
>>290103702Kek. It's a bit funny how they assemble it here. >>290103695
>>290103749>>290103782Btw this is how people die from autoerotic asphyxiation. It's not actually the most cruel form of hanging, that would be no-drop hanging with a rope deliberately tied in such a way that it doesn't block the carotid artery.
>>290103773For the love of the game
>>290103749Oh hey this comes up again in another Sako story namely the Yakou flashback story right after the end of the main story.
>>290103773Baku wants it like that.>>290103832>Kengan refereesThey're alright but I don't think they fight unlike the KAKEROU referees. Maybe they should tho.>>290103890Never got what's erotic about it.
>>290103862Interesting perspective.
>>290103845>I'm someone who bets his life, but I've never thought it's okay if I die.I like this line a lot for some reason.Also it's the opposite of Akagi right? He would be fine with dying at any time.
>>290103964Anna Paula > Yakou
>>290103358Pretty sure the second pic is Marco
>>290104066That is 100% Baku.
>>290103277This will be important eventually
>>290103807Kaji... you are making some dangerous assumptions here
>>290104111Chin isn't pointy enough
>>290103474Surprising accuracy considering how he's viewing all this
>>290103767This has never been proven in a court of law and Baku will sue you for defamation
>>290104129Even if so it is just a slight deviation. Slight spoiler but you'll see him rocking that exact look later so I promise it is Baku.
!
>>290103675>>290103702>we had H.R. Giger design this at no small expense
>>290104200HE FUCKING SUCKSGET HIM OUT OF HERE
>>290103964>Never got what's erotic about it.Oxygen deprivation does funny things to the brain
>>290104221>Yakou-san, why are you trying not to laugh? That's disrespectful as shit.
>>290104046Shiina Alisa would fit right in as a referee
>>290104078>>290104092>>290104164If you trust Yakou's words you can see what's going on.
>>290104221Mekama with the ISHYGDDT face.
>>290104164Baku...
>>290104200>when you order orange but you get lemon lime
>>290104300He has a weird tendency to oscillate between handsome and goblin man
>>290104310It was the gallows maintainance man >>290103695
>>290104344So yoy think that Kakerou has some kind of plot?
>>290103526>Chapter is 4 * 11>Name is Five-EleventhsThe math isn't adding up
>>290104309>>290104332>"tsk">"the joker isn't in Baku's hand...">over the shoulder camera angle at Baku's cards>Showing that Sadakuni is actually seeing Baku's cards and not his own at this time, and thinking something like Kaji's lines.
>>290104169Sonna...
>>290104397If he set this to 45 or 90 seconds instead Baku would be pretty fucked
>>290104419Begin the subplots. Cute girl in the top left.
>>290104436>>290104453ENTER
could yakou's coffee defeat billy craig?
>>290104473He's american so he's used to shit coffee
>>290104436>>290104453Shadow enter...
>>290104453ENTER THE ENJOYER OF GOOD COFFEE!
>>290104484yes, but yakou's is lethally shit
>>290104523Very fitting that it's Kyara who makes this point
>>290104491>>290104523Queue the meme
>>290104473But could Lolong Donaire have taken "it".
>>290104561Anon-kun...
>>290104561You're right but maybe delete that
>>290104541Tru
>>290104570I think he's bluffing. Kick his ass, Ikki!
>>290104561>>290104578Looks like he's still "green"ok i stop now with the keng/a/n memes
>>290104561>[/spoiler]if there was not an active dump happening I would be posting an extremely smug anime girl
>>290104570>we didn't see him open itIt's so fucking over
>>290104543*ahem*
>>290104617Comfy house. Kinda feels like an alpine style.
>>290104640Wait, how is Yakou here but also in the tunnel...
Fukkin 'ell with this phoneposting, no ctrl+s>>290104484Spoiler character but his catchphrase makes me think he could be Aussie (despite being an American patriot HERO) and reading his dialogue with an Aussie accent is hilariously fitting.
>>290104617double stealth
>>290103773Because investors want to see blood.
>>290104653Maybe it's a time skip?
>>290104684Maybe, he's got the scar and stuff
>>290104599But we did see him littering. >>290104597You should stop that, Baku. Not very world peace like of you.
>>290104714AnalogyGOD...
>>290104714actually 200% accurate comparison of himself and Baku-san
>>290104702Anon...
>>290104617Mr. K mentionedThis is the part that threw me for a loop first time reading, like why are we cutting away to world politics in a forest lodge? It makes sense now.>>290104634Yes.
>>290104727Yeah but the armored guy can cut you more easily...
>>290104653And this shit too, idk if Sako made "that" confusing on purpose so ig I won't say anything.
>>290104674Cool.
>>290104726Oh true!
>>290104854ENTER OUR HERO(?)
>>290104854enter
>>290104453>>290104436ENTERRR
>>290104778It's interesting many characters comment on Sadakuni as particularly insane. Is it cause he's too ideological and not self-serving enough? Like, he lost the human self-preservation instinct whereas someone like Ranko has a motive that is extremely easy to grasp.
>>290104854best referree
>>290104897What's his ideology again?
>>290104854ENTER true neutral.
>>290104926Best buddy cop team
>>290104946Marco the diplomat
>>290104975Marco the CHARISMATIC and INTELLIGENT
>>290103188i just know baku actually planned to lose this one too.
>>290104928Well it's not explicitly stated but we know this:He hates greed.He fled the country to "the North" (Russia is North West of Japan)He is attacking a financial institution.It seems likely it is hinting at communism. If not, maybe some sort of fascism since he also seems to dislike gambling or indulgent behavior.
>>290103330Kaji, they literally told you the rules just a few minutes ago
>>290104946Baku cares about the trees. But he just won't stop littering Kariume wrappers...
>>290103493It's also the climax of the film adaptation, even if some things were changed
Just realized that Usogui is kinda like Gin to Kin but less gay.
>>290105072I like to imagine Baku pays some referee mooks to pick them up.
>>290103506you are what you eat after all.
>>290102983You need to put usogoi in the title next time
>>290105043I guess Baku took notes.
>>290105040Kaji hasn't leveled up and become Chadji yet, so at the moment he's only marginally smarter than Marco.
>>290105080It really is, yeah.
>>290105090Baku creating jobs for world peace (maybe)
>>290103252I know he is supposed to have a 6pack but to me buko will always be a fat little chud
>>290103832>The kengan refereesI wonder what would happen if someone challenged Baku to a surprise game, only for the later to find out at the last second that the game is just a fist fight to the death
>>290104946Marco is so genuinely charming it's funny
>>290105072Baku uses biodegradable kariume baggies
>>290105092Good one.
>>290105043Goofy pose
>>290105095Always appreciate a character that surrounds themselves with their polar opposite for balance
>>290105135DSL
>>290105043>>290105204This is specific but the Sadakuni panel looks like a Yu-Gi-Oh! card.
>>290105239Oh yeah I know exactly what you're talking about
>>290105236getting your dick sucked by ranko would 100% be the most horrific experience of your lifein both a good and bad way
>>290105258If she likes you enough to put your dick in her mouth I think you're in the clear

>>290105297Baku's theme song fr fr. Playing it in the background while he pulls off a "however" substantially improves the reading experience.

>>29010541913:10 vs 21:02And here I thought I was going too slow
>>290104453ENTER Starts sobbing uncontrollably
>>290105452Finished Thanks anon
We did it boys.
>>290105874Damn...Lost another one...Gonna find a game for tomorrows thread
>>290104468 Was it ever explained why Kyara left with Usogui?
>>290105594>>290105672>kengan>shiguruiWhat other crossover manga will we see?
Boy do I love jigsaw puzzles.>>290105716Kek
>>290105879Little saddened that we didn't have many anons join in, you could have used the help.
>>290104743 This guy is on strong copium huh
>>290105920I gamble alone but it was fun
>>290105594I HATE THE KOGAN STYLEI HATE THE KOGAN STYLEI HATE THE KOGAN STYLEI HATE THE KOGAN STYLEI HATE THE KOGAN STYLEI HATE THE KOGAN STYLE
>>290105907Kyara doesn't tolerate losers
>>290104854E N T E RNTER>>290105037Communism is on the weird nationalist spectrum where citizens are expected to live virtuously but also contribute to their nation with no expectation of reward, I don't think this guy is on a particular strong economic leaning despite being anti-capitalist and hedonism, I think he might be a hardcore fundamentalist ascetic but not an actual commie. Thinking like South American non-Commie dictators
>>290106002ANON FOR FUCKS SAKE
late early to mid Usogui had some pretty good expressions
>>290106002Marco-tier tech literacy.
>>290103733>his favorite gambleWow, that's kind of interesting.>>290105077This is probably when Usogui kicked up the actual plot I think
>>290105900>Gonna find a game for tomorrows threadSeems like a fine payment for not being the fastest jigger.
>>290106002Highlight the words you want to spoiler and hit ctrl + s. Never failed me.
>>290105322Thanks OP, I appreciate you>>290105372That's how serious about Gambling Baku is. A gamble you can't lose is no gamble
Fuck meBig spoilers I don't think it was said explicitly but Kyara wanted to stand alongside the peak of gambling, he did but Usogui left and I guess Kyara couldn't see himself standing next to anyone else. Yakou didn't want to admit it, tsun-tsun Kyara didn't want to admit it but Kyara and Usogui were charmed by each other. Like Kyara says in the end "I just want to make you win". He left Kakerou and became a true ally to Usogui.>>290105997I think the question was, why did Kyara also leave when Usogui lost, cause Kyara could have just let Usogui leave and stay in Kakerou but he left as Usogui left.
>>290105997 But is that reason enough to leave Kakeru? Interesting, I guess it can fit
>>290105999Yeah, something like that makes sense.>>290106009>>290106032>>290106063Sorry, on a trip and ph*ne posting...
>>290106088Yes that basically answers my question thank you, seems fitting. And very on theme with how referees operate
>>290106203Yep
Hey OP, the gap in Duwangs scans is approaching. Did you pick a suitable translation for it?
>>290106136>on a trip and ph*ne posting...Use an app then
>>290102983I thought you're late or something.
>>290103749>their heart will stop beating right awayI don't think that's how it works
>>290104249Kek.
Is there really no one that can win forever?
>>290103122What kind of camera is that? I want one.
>>290103236Kek, he's mad.
>>290103277Some kind of betting amongst the referee?
>>290103474>>290103506AAAIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>290104249Bakubros, it's so over...
>>290105910There's an actual Baki crossover chapter, with Hanayama being a Kakerou member, and Yakou's fighting style references Doppo a lot. Also Baki has a crossover chapter with Kengan, so Usogui is technically tainted by the Niko style.Baku references Fist of the North Star a few times, and I think Dragonball is mentioned at some point.Once we get to the island you could reference quite a few things.Then of course, there is Hal.
>>290104338half of the characters oscillate between 4chan user and gigachad fashion model, so I wouldnt really call it weird
>>290103474>>290103506N-NO THIS CANT BE BAKUSISTERS
>>290103567>>290103587damn this baku guy is a real fraud, he could never beat akiyama
>>290104549You were awesome, Usogui. Top 5 gamblers of all time
>>290103506While his catchphrase getting thrown back into his face is hilarious, I don't think this humourless guy would be the one to do it.>>290104249Uhhh Baku bros, what is this? >>290105322Damn, I feel like dumping the whole volume may be better. It feels like I'm getting edged here.
>>290105174He already figure it out and swap to Marco
>>290103506KUSOgui

>>290104348SadakuniGODs, it seems our hero BROKE him
>>290103702Kek.
>>290104674the art has improved like crazy in the last two volumes
>>290103975>>290103989Huh, now that Kaji is pointing that out. What about the betting audience? And glasses is wearing comm device to said audience?
>>290104200B-BAKUBROS, WHAT'S HAPPENING?!
>>290104453Mystery nigga!
early usogui kinda reminds me of hideki arai
>>290104653Or maybe it's EL HERMANO DE YAKOU!
>>290104249I tried but got overwhelmed pretty fast...
>>290104854Based ratGOD of LOYALTY and HONESTY
>>290104695>>290104714>no luck in a duel>it's all determinationWhat about fucking skills, you scrub.
>>290108750Yeah, it's almost night and day the improvement between 1/2 and 3/4. And it only gets better from here on in
>>290104926Is he eating a newt?
>>290106281The previous dump used easy going scans for that gap, the ones anon was using at the start of this storytime
>>290104946Impeccable logic, Marco.
>>290104674i blinked and baku turned into a bishounen
>>290109164Roasted lizard
>>290105322>2 jokers vs 0MOST DANGEROUS LEAD
>>290105322Rused. Thanks OP.
>>290109080Kek, good job.
>>290109080Excellent edit anon
>>290104854my nigga Karl (Marx)
>>290109211Did Marco mention CO2 because he was roasting the lizard?
>>290109298Seems uncharacteristically smart for him, but I would need to see what the original text saysMaybe he's just worried about the smoke
>>290109298He is simply sharing cool facts that Baku-kun taught him
>>290105322I'm really enjoying this. Thanks so much, OP. Every half-volume is over too quickly
>>290109380>>290109416I can see Baku telling him about fire and CO2, leading to the CO2 and trees.
