The winner of last thread's game, "Editor", appears to be this anon >>290352793 with 4 (You)s. Congrats anon!
Today's game will be Pooyan! (NES / Famicom)Get your emulator and ROM set up.

>>290385408lol
>>290385409Fucking Dumbo ova there
>>290385409ENTER
>>290385461So Yukiide's father was a superintendent. I didn't catch his position first time reading.

>>290386173Tactical af
>>290386084Yes he needed to pose like that
>>290386393I like the little nods when they confirm Kadokura is not on Baku's side.
>>290385409Not beating the monkey allegations
>>290386243His shoulders hurt.
>>290385638>this is my fappin' hand
>>290386084It's neat how he has one hand in his pocket, but one hand revealed and it's vascular which for some reason represents killing intent in this manga. Like he's hiding his intention but betrays his killing intent.
>>290385775Mindbroken
>>290385886The real labyrinth arc starts now
>>290385924Cute monkey officer

>>290386428Confirmed stinker
>>290386618fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
>>290386690Kadokura please stop the WWE commentary and DO YOUR FUCKING JOB
>>290385522>>290386513>>290386550Sorry for Cross-Posting but I think important distinctions to make are that>high IQ does not make one immune to myopic ideation>high IQ doesn't nullify neurotic impulses>high IQ doesn't mitigate emotional traumaYukiide is smart enough to run this gamble well enough and keep up the act against everyone except /ourgambler/, but Baku is a master at the mental game and Yukiide is kind of lacking in that regard.A real beagle meets tiger situation here.
>>290386730HERE COMES BAKU-SAMA WITH THE KARIUMEBUH GAWD
>>290386651kek>>290386603It's like when you suffer through Mazurka, leaving your soul behind in those cursed halls, just to arrive in the Rotting Sea of Flames.
>>290386618Marco forma de intelligencia
>>290386764LMAO>>290386749Interesting points.
>>290386799>Jobber words this earlyOh no no no PFD bros
>>290386749It's like how scientists are smart in their field but still susceptible to falling to the most basic phishing technique like most people
>>290386666Spoiler I checked if any Japanese words for colors starts with ka and I didn't find any, right now at least.
>>290386084The STRONGEST so far
>>290386883>we have two more people waiting at the parking lotManabe and Taka? We don't get to see who they are iirc.
>>290386799Minowa is fucking scary but there's no fucking way he could have taken Marco and Kadokura together
>>290386690I like to think this is the point where Baku charmed Kadokura
>>290386084>ONE MANI DON'T KNOW WHYIT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER HOW HARD YOU LIE
>>290386937>>290386988Huh, so Kado changed his mind.
>>290386988>I-I'm not biased baka...
>>290386799It's funny how this would have unironically been the smarter choice.
>>290386988KADOKURA CHANGED SIDES AND JOINED THE USOGUI LEAGUE
>>290386730His job is done dude, he doesn't have to do dick.
Yeah ok Kado.
>>290386618Marco the SMARTMarco the INTELLIGENTMarco the INTELLECTUALMarco the SCHOLARMarco the SAGE
>>290387016If he immediately went for the kill he actually might be able to. But I think they were betting on Kadokura staying neutral.
>>290387016Minowa is legit Bai Long tier, if he were in top condition he could have totally done it
>>290387111>It's not like I want to help you or anything, b-baka!
>>290386845He underestimates Baku "The Lie of the North Star"
>>290387148>Fucking human superweapon and a Referee + his army? Yeah sure, whatever, just another Thursday
>>290387174>when u nut but she still suckin
>>290387174>>290387194I love Kado's happy face. :)
>>290387174Top two panels are before and after
>>290387174indian jokers everywhere
>>290387213Amano has lost...
>>290387291Amako the SCUM
>>290387291Rude.
>>290387291You have... LIED, haven't you?
>>290387291What a bastard.
>>290387291I'm still not sure if Amako is evil. Can we see him killing a kitten just in case?
>>290387379I heard he was in cahoots with THAT BLOODY BENCHOD BASTARD Luohan
>>290386223Huh, never noticed Kurokawa sizing him up before
>>290387374I can't believe they haven't arrested this rape murderer yet.
>>290387406Kaji how could you!
>>290387411Oh, same.
>>290387374Damn Kaji RAPES??
>>290386173lol in the raws he actually talks a little shit on the assistants here, calls them 木偶/dummies.
>>290387406Can't believe Kaji would do this. Baku should really get better friends.
>>290387444Trustworthy accounts
>>290387474Oh really? Thanks anon, that's nice to know.
>>290387474is the stutter he does in the last panel actually "ka"?
>>290387520Didn't notice Karl pissing himself on my first read
>>290387534Yeah, I don't think it's a hint or anything though to his synesthesia. The slip up he has later with mi and minowa is because he's blindfolded, his synesthesia is specifically with his hearing and he can see everything in that room just fine, so it wouldn't really be a factor.
>>290387633I figured, I just sadly can't trust these scans 100%
>>290387626I guess this is relevant to Baku's natural lie detection sense.
>>290387654Yeah you shouldn't. They're not awful, but they're less accurate than Duwang's stuff even if Duwang's stuff has weirder English sometimes.
I think this is very relevant to remember throughout the whole story.>>290387633Thanks for checking, and fair point.
>>290387728He seems like a nice guy :)
>>290387769I feel like it's rare to see Baku's inner monologue in real time rather than when explaining things that happened in the past.
>>290386084>>290386129>His name even sounds like Minotaur Kino
>>290387769It's always dangerous when we start to see Bakus thoughts, and every time it happens I feel myself "charmed" by him
>>290387851damn top left is smashed and slammed
>>290387851The Kariume commercial lol.>let's not buy in bulkBaku buying so much that they're supply constrained.
>>290387874Kadokura...
>>290387874same
Kaji is so smart!
>>290387944Why are we giving a powerup to this despicable rapist who even murders children?He even hangs out with the literal death dealer.
>>290387944SMARTji
>>290387979kek schoolyard bully kyara is great
>>290388022What are the fucking odds, seriously?
>>290388035Does he have the power of Luck?
>>290386084PREPARE FOR TROUBLE>>290386129AND MAKE IT DOUBLE
>>290388035Pretty high actually, considering Karl is just walking out in the open.
>>290388056tuff
>>290385680Is a karate chop the deadliest technique? I always see manga depicting them as a finishing move
>>290388104I remember anon who made himself nearly pass out by karate chopping himself lightly in the back of the head.
>>290385409I can relate, i used to regularly have nightmares about gorillas
>>290388104Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should you read the Billy Bat daily, it has truths you couldn't handle regarding the "chop"
lol>>290388137That's oddly specific.
>>290388129I don't see the problem, it's how I handle my japanese conversations and I haven't had trouble so far.
>>290386084HOLY FUCK, I'M SHAKING
>>290388154>Billy Bat>Billy CraigThe pieces... I'm fitting them together
One anon had a genius take about how the spork represents Billy Craig's dual role as combatant and information gatherer.
>>290388093>>290388129Once a Yakuza always a scammer huh.
>>290388161S P O R KPORK
>>290387520>go to the toilet, you're pissing yourself!>not yet
>>290388199That's honestly a shitty spork, the fork portion is too small.
>>290388262Being fair to them, how often do you get a dude who asks for sporks out of the blue?
>>290388280Billy sure likes twisting things. Maybe that's why he likes eating spaghetti.
>>290388311ENTERREAL SCHIZO HOUR
>>290388311Martin the FRIENDLY
>>290388311>I think we'll be able to get alongAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIE
>>290388311What a nice guy
>>290388311Martin really looks like Chris Shihirlis from Heat.
>>290388311do we... do we see Samemaru and his brother again? I never gave it much thought and can't remember, but they were just led away by Martin the serial killer.
>>290388355WHY ARE YOUR EARS SO FUCKING BIGFUCKING TV ANTENNAS
>>290387225kek
>>290388391MISUNDERSTANDING DESU~
>>290388355Slight mistake here. Billy Craig is a third rank secretery in the American Embassy, and also a member of the CIA.
>>290388391GOKAI DESU~
>>290388391GOMENNASORRY~DESUU
>>290388426Could Caracal have taken him? I think so
>>290388396Dude maybe you're right.
>>290388464>Buried in the skyUnder fucking what, the clouds?
>>290388464Private Funeral Division is such a funny name for a front for assassins.
>>290388490I think what he's referring to is a sky burial, where they leave a corpse on a cliff for birds to eat.
>>290387174The scans are so deep fried that Kadokura looks like Jeff the Killer
>>290388490Sky burials. i.e. have your corpse eaten by birds
>>290386937Aka? red?
>>290388504>O-Oh shit, Minowa-sama is here? Here you go, it was all part of my plan btw, so huh, please spare me?Our hero...
>>290388514>>290388524Ok I never knew that existed, that's pretty cool. I always interpreted it as he can really make you disappear in the most impossible of ways/places.>>290388447Maybe if he's properly rested :^)
>oh good the gamble ended, maybe the black bars will reduce a littleWhat some funny anon thought I'm sure.
!>>290388568Oh, maybe.
>>290388629>officer I'm telling you, the bike just did that on its own!
>>290388199*Holds up spork*
>>290388629E-ENTER!?
>>290388587>>290388629Another inspiration from Heat? That scene where Chris briefly glimpses a police officer behind a moving truck and instantly starts blasting.
>>290388662Lmao to Kaiji, Kyara just killed someone randomly
>>290387944>I remembered those absolute bullshit cyborg eyes from the hangman game and realized I live in a cyberpunk setting where this would be possible
>>290388621What the hell, you can't just read my mind like that.
>>290387979Yes, Kyara. Kill that rapist
>>290388743Marco the SHIELD
>>290388662Does Kyara know who Billy is or was he just reacting off his killing intent?
>>290388161ENTERSPORK
>>290388791The latter I think.
>>290388662And you call throwing bikes a martial art?
>>290388876I have no counterargument to this. He won the moral battle.
>>290388876Marco is so wise.
>>290388876PHILOSOPHERCO
>>290388199Fun fact about cutlery, table knives were invented by a Richelieu, a very influential cardinal and statesman, who was annoyed by guests picking their teeth with his sharp knives at the dinner table, so he ordered all his dining knives dulled and their tips rounded so they couldn't do that anymore.
>>290388876I love the rare moments when Baku is genuinely surprised
>>290386930Exactly like that yes, can't expect a monkey to swim or a fish to "scale" "the wall"
>>290388914Marco destroyed by facts and logic
>>290388280Ow
>>290388934Human history is so fucking dumb
>>290388939True>>290388934Really? That's neat. People really ate with sharp knives before? That sounds dangerous.
>>290388311I like how many replies Martin's entrance is getting here even though we already saw him in the initial fight with Caracal
He's so turned on.
>>290388391>give me the L
>>290388629Block this overhead
>>290388447If he falls asleep then yes, but I think Minowa would kill him faster than he would lose consciousness. The guy is legit super dangerous if he goes for the throat.
>>290389016I 'member.
>>290388104a chop from kadokura would likely snap his cervical spine instantly, he wasnt kidding it would be an instant sendoff
>>290388504I wonder if they ever have to arrange actual funerals as a cover
>>290388129Maybe I'm dumb but I didn't get this spaghetti prison line. He's just making fun of how he says "Spaghetti please" I guess?
>>290388629ENTERHERMES!
>>290388791He got bad vibes from the car so he chucked a bike at it
>>290388987>can I pleeeeease, please, please, please, be the referee to the game, Amako-kun~~~!>I'll be impartial, pinky promise :)
>>290389130I think it's a joke about Japanese people stringing together random English words when they don't know the languagehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqbtbTSeai0
>>290389126Maybe lol.>>290389158I feel like there's some meaning behind all this and this arc but I'm not sure what. Maybe it's just the theme of "order" that this arc has, and the centralized police system established in the 1800s being a symbol of that.
>>290389130Pu-re-a-suSounds sort of like Prison
>>290389158Kadokura (Forma de Gigachad)
>>290388876Cop destroyed by facts and logic
>>290389227I didnt wanna post the pic since the dump's still going on but in the raws he even puts the "n" at the end though. I guess it's almost like an unvoiced sound sometimes? It's weird. You get a lot of funny results if you google スパゲッティプリズン though.
>>290388504It's a bit similar to the Burial Agency in Fate
>>290389158>now gentlemen allow me to tell you my schizo conspiracy theory about the underground illuminati maze
>>290389257Why?Why would you even build that?
>>290389257This is where your tax money is going
>>290389288True.
>>290389309as a symbol of order!
>>290389332lol I like how he brings up that saying.
>>290389309They had some materials left over
>>290385248By "stolen" he just means Baku took the sheets into his hands for a bit right?
>>290389309Meiji era GOOMBLERS
>>290389332Iconic tunnel
>>290386084THERE IT IISSS
>>290389327I wish that's where my tax money was going.
>>290389382He took some of Yukiide's paper to experiment and figure out the trick.
>>290389309Could easily be something someone would do to pocket money from government grants, it actually happened a lot in Hungary under Orban, they would take money given to the country from EU schemes and use parts of it to build random shit in the middle of nowhere (like roundabouts unconnected to any roads out in the countryside) and government officials in charge of the "project" would pocket the rest
Any OGs would know that during this arc, and between this one and the next there was a gigantic hiatus where there was no translations for what, a few years? It fucking SUCKED
And that's it for volume 10! Thank you all for reading. We're getting into some iconic parts of the manga now.Today's game is Pooyan! I'll post the rules below.>>290389466Sounds rough.
>>290386084Holy shit, he has a spooky smile in the thumbnail!
>>290386656Marco is really hard carrying Baku desu.
>>290388549our hero billy is going to cleanse the world of the death dealer's sins
>>290389533Nonsense, Minowa and Amako are wholesome cops
>>290389533He has a spooky smile in the actual picture too
>>290389502Thanks fake-OP
>Amako-san? It's me. The target has been found, please make your way to the office.
>>290389533Not seeing it
>>290389563lmao amazingf
>>290389182the world would be so funny if killing intent was a thing IRLimagine the shit cops would do
>>290389604
>>290389502Thank you for posting!I was going to post this, but didn't make it in time.
>>290387444Well, if all of these upstanding citizens think that Kaji is a fucking rapist, who am I to disagree? Lock him up and throw away the key.
Let's play Pooyan! Highest score within 1 hour from now wins! Are (You) better than Baku-san?Pooyan ROM: https://vimm.net/vault/76979NES / Famicom emulator: https://fceux.com/web/home.html>>290389604kek>>290389702lol appreciate you anon.
>>290387444What does the N stand for?
>>290389736oops forgot pic
>>290389750NIGERUNDAYO!
The Pastebin now includes entirety of Volume 10!Results from todays game will be updated after I wake up.https://pastebin.com/9HGt1efZGood luck everyone!
>>290389736I have to go to sleep, so there will never be any proof that anyone in this thread could have beaten me.
>>290389798Thx Pastebin anon.>>290389800That sounds smart. Personally, I choose to game.
First try, 35000... game over on stage 2
>>290388876Baku here is thinking that Marco is even more retarded than he thought he was.
>>290387111 This was merely the preamble to schizokura
Damn...it does get harder on stage 3...
I guess I'm getting older, I could only reach loop 3...
>>290390154It's him...John Pooyan...
>>290389971T-this monster, he reached stage 2 of pooyan on his first try!
>>290387554>Apparently, in some cases, dreams have hints to the solution of your current situation...Baku abuses this like a fucking real life cheat code
Third try, GO on stage 3.>>290390231Just built differe->>290390154>loop 3Nvm we have a pro gamer here.
>>290390288True! Never realized but the first dream sequence we see is Kaji, not Baku. Huh.
>>290386084This fuckin guy I swear
>>290390179>>290390336I actually used to play Pooyan on and off when I was a kid, but it was on the C64 rather than the NES.Definitely not my favorite gen 3 game but I used to be pretty decent at it, but now I'm pushing 40 and I haven't played it in literal ages, at least my coffee's better than Yakou's..
>>290390231he scaled the pooywall
>>290390471Nice. Do you get new lives when you loop or no?
>>290386656Bros hes so cool....
>>290390578No, loops merely add more shields to the balloons and make the enemy patterns more aggressive by adding more balloons and other stuff like strawberries, you gain lives by scoring and some other tricks.
>>290390471What is your favorite gen 3 game?
>>290386084Thumbnail makes it look like he has a balding spot in his head
>>290390648I see. It's a surprisingly fleshed out game.
>>290387406What a degenerate piece of shit.
this is pretty hard
>>290386656Just read the title of this chapter for the first time lmao
>>290390651Hard to say honestly, and it's been so many years I'm sure I forgot a lot of them, going from memory I guess:>Castlevania 3>Gyruss>Shatterhand>Zanac>Contra>Strider>Alex Kidd>Metal Max, though Returns is the superior versionThough that's strictly console/arcade games, if I had to add other stuff like computer games I guess it would be a bit different>>290390743It's pretty standard arcade stuff for its time, and it gets brutal rather quickly since it's a simple 2 stage game so loops accumulate faster than your average arcade game of the time.
>>290387937What a clever creep
Ok the print screen just wouldn't work but I promise I beat stage 3 and got 86300. Better than Baku let's goo>>290390959Hm, oh you mean it "loops" cause it goes through the falling balloon stage and rising ballon stage? Oh ok. I guess Stage 3 is really loop 2 stage 1 then.>>290390910Yeah.
>>290391032Yeah, it's falling wolves with the ladder>rising wolves with the boulder>bonus stage and then the game loops
>>290386084ENTER ONE MAN>>290386129NO, TWO MEN
>>290388396Nope. This is their last appearance.
>>290390910This is my limit
>>290388791Pure killing intent.
How do you shoot down the pink wolves? Feels like they block every arrow.>>290391217Dang you have the high score so far.
>>290389332Oh boy it's that tunnel.
>>290391318I just shot them a lot, don't know if there is a proper way to do it
Labyrinth the paper version is an interesting one because it's the type of game that could easily be taken in different directions depending on the style of the manga. Like I could easily imagine a short Liar Game arc about labyrinth that was far more focused on the more grounded game theory aspects of how to build your maze and sus out the opponent's than the grandiose rugpulls and mindgames Usogui excels at. Kind of makes me want to see a gimmick where multiple gambling/mindgame mangaka each take a crack at writing a specific gamble in their own styles.
>>290386573>>290386618>going to the trouble of getting a wig for Marco's disguise instead of risking messing up his luscious maneBaku has his priorities straight.
And time's up. Anon >>290391217 is the winner! It's perfect that we have actual Pooyan players in the thread.In the end, were (You) better than Baku-san?>>290391468That would be fun.
>>290388752The abandoned tower gamble had Baku hide a wire inside a pen, so maybe he remembered that. Although I don't remember if Kaji was present when that was explained.
>>290391517Hurray, again!I never actually played Pooyan before, but it was pretty fun.Anyways, the Pastebin now includes todays Pooyan game.

>>290386084This will always be one of my favorite pages in any manga, ever.So unnecessarily poignant, overflowing with personality.
>>290388464I've said this before, but the Private Funeral Division is the coolest name for an antagonist faction in all of media. No, there's never been a better one, I checked.
>>290386084>>290386129why is this sequence so funnyI'm chuckling but I don't know why
>>290391809Yeah it's very cool and, I can't find the right word, threatening? Grave? (heh) While sounding professional.
>>290388447>>290389092 This is a really interesting discussion, because this is basically a metahuman (captain America-tier musculature) versus a metahuman (daredevil tier instincts while not awake). The obvious answer I think here is that Minowa no-diffs anyone if he has the initiative like this, there's not much Caracal can do against a dude with twice the force from this position and he doesn't seem like a grappler. I think a more interesting answer is that Minowa is naturally kind of cocky so he'll play around with Caracal and probably lead to a more even fight when Caracal inevitably gets nocked out, since Amado here doesn't actually want a diplomatic incident in killing him. Anyway, that's my thesis.
>>290386084it's here, the exact moment Usogui becomes a 10 out of 10 manga experience.
>>290391468>a short Liar Game arcNao-san! Nao-san! I've found a surefire way to have this game end in a tie! We just have to not draw any walls in our labyrinths! Then, we can take turns winning the round and come out even! For this first round, I'll move first!
>>290387019Kek
>>290391954lol
>>290388504 Only Minowa here doubles as a hitman, everyone else in the Funeral Division is basically just a hitman/STRONG NEN-wielder turned into a cop paid to fight against an enemy of the state. I don't think the state formally employs them as hitmen
>>290388876>People die when they are killedI love my son Marco so fucking much
>>290389533looks like a jewish hat
>>290392018I agree they're not formally employed by the state. As for being hitmen or fighting against enemies of the state, is there a difference? I think it's implied that the PFD is an obscure assassination unit, like how the assault team heard rumors that the Hurricane guy got picked up as a combatant for a secret unit. And Sasaoka sends them in against the ACIA.
>>290386618FUARRK
>>290385680On a hindsight, on first time reading, you would thought that Leader is egotism that he dóe care enought about Baku to remember him, but on second time reading this, it might be because Leader legit forgot about him
>>290392254Definitely.
>>290392018I think they deserve a bit more credit than that
>>290388311Val Kilmer as Chris Shiherlis from Heat, complete with ponytail.
>>290391954>For this first round, I'll move first!Would she really say this?
One thing that always bothered me about the upcoming gamble is how Marco manages to be on the right rooms at the right timeWe are shown how the others manage to do it but Retardo is own his own
>>290392155 Yeah, that is a good point. At the end of the day they're referee level and getting paid to fight, not so different from certain later groups. That said, I can't really see some of them as assassins like the weird egg guy
>>290392601It's from the perspective of the opponent talking to Nao.
>>290392627I dropped the manga so I have forgotten the names, I assumed you were speaking as that super honest girl.
>>290392624He is definitely goofy. I like his philosophical speeches, he struck me as a true neutral character.
>>290392602 I like to think Marco just has retard luck
>>290388587>>290388629The scene from Heat in question.
>>290392602it's slightly up to luck, but remember that the opponents are communicating so they can avoid Marco easily.and I don't think Marco enters any room at the right time by luck, does he?
>>290392878Near the end when he fights Minowa
>>290392889doesn't he literally just follow him?
Has anyone been keeping track of Baku's rock paper scissors results? I always mean to but I forget to whenever I re-read it. So far I know he's at least lost to Kaji. Were there any others?
>>290392944I never actually considered doing that, I'll see if I can notice anything
>>290392944Baku also lost to Sadakuni. That's all so far, I think.
>>290392944He "lost" to the terrorist, but that'd up in the air cause his hand transformed.
>>290392971Thanks, I'm terrible about remembering storytime threads.>>290392992I'd count it as a Sadakuni win.I went back and check and against both Kaji and Sadakuni he played rock, too.
>>290393083Good ol' rock. Nothing beats that.
>>290388876>>290388914
>>290386618Mother fucker I told you guys.... >>290387174I FUCKING TOLD YOU GUYS THE REF IS RETARDEDIT WAS SO FUCKING STUPID FOR HIM TO NOT REMOVE THE MONEYI DON'T KNOW SHIT ABOUT THIS MANGA BUT IT WAS OBVIOUS TO A RETARD LIKE ME THAT HAVING BILLIONS OF YEN LAYING AROUND WAS STUPID NOW LOOK WHERE THIS FUCKING RETARD OF A REF ISHE IS FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE TO PROTECT THIS MONEY. WHO COULD HAVE PREDICTED THIS WOULD HAPPEN? OH YEAH EVERYONE EXCEPT HIMWHAT A RETARD I HOPE HE IS KILLED
>>290394783There is going to be a character that you'll like
>>290394783If he was fighting it would be to protect his own life and nothing else
>>290387254>>290387291Okay, I know people take the piss out of this moment for being a near-literal "kick the dog" moment, but it's really the context here that makes it so abhorrent. Yukiide, who we all assumed was completely unconscious, overheard Amakos entire act and his reveal that he really was just using him the whole time, latching onto him for, well, anything really. Instead he gets two whole panels worth of stone cold deliberation before Amako just casually kicks him aside in quiet indignation before turning to walk ahead. He truly feels no remorse for what he did to Yukiide and considers him nothing more than a nuisance to be nudged out of his way. And then Yukiide Senior getting fucked even harder by Amako, who relishes in it, is just the cherry on top
>>290386084ENTERI actually don't get his popularity despite I like him as well
>>290388981To add to this, he built the Bastille solely so that all the aristocrats dicking around in pre-revolution France could have all the political prisoners they wanted
>>290388396The only time they're seen again is the Yakou oneshot, and because Yakou damages Samemarus ears during the oneshot, it's only a prequel appearance
>>290388934Kek yeah right, if he was a cardinal that means the real reason was he was scared of being assassinated with a steak knife
>>290395451 He's a sleazy japanese hercules, it's not that deep. He's a very cool bad guy
>>290389502Thanks OP
>>290395841>He's a very cool bad guyI agree
>>290386084I imagine his voice actor being Fujiwara Keiji since he reminds me of that 1 character from Majikoi! :(
>>290395451Superman Syndrome with Gumshoe detective design
>>290389016I mean it *is* the first time he does his serial killer routine on-page
>>290389309You'll see
>>290389309as a symbol of orderretard
>>290389563Referencing not only the Seiichi Obfuscation but even how their relationship is the exact opposite in plain sightAre you the anon that posted BEHOLD, ONE MAN?
>>290389309I think its just a pretty version of a raft foundation
>>290390288I mean it kinda makes sense if you think about it. His dreams just highlight whatever is being mulled about in his subconscious mind, which allows Baku to go into further (conscious) contemplation about them. It's basically an extension of his lie detecting abilities. I got fucking nothing for Kajis usage though, other than maybe it's more obvious or surface or he worries about them, I don't know
>>290396805does Kaji "use" it again? The instance we saw here was meant to indicate that he's learning and slowly reversing his sucker transformation and to leave it as a setup for when it happens later again to others.
>>290392602It's because Kadokura made Marcos and Minowas labyrinth paths intersect a lot, so they'd be guaranteed to fight each other at some point. This meant that when Marco chased after Minowa after their first fight, he was retracing his own steps while advancing along Minowas
>>290396897I don't think so, the next time he dreams is during his fight with Floyd Lee, and all he gets is "you need to get over your trauma, Kaji"
>>290388629>>290388662kek
Usogui the FRAILKaji the RAPISTMarco the RETARDEDKyara the UNHINGED
>>290386084ENTERRRRRRRRR
>>290389502Forgot to say thanks "OP"
>>290389502thanks op. the shit grinning cop reminds me of a side character of a somewhat popular vn. and then i realised he's not the only one, and many side characters were actually a parody of baku characters. i guess baku was (is) really popular.
>>290397545>Usogui the FRAILHe FoTNS'd that one referee, you better stop lying>Kaji the RAPISTMy lawyer has told me to not comment on this topic at this time>Marco the RETARDEDOur boy is handsome and intelligent, this is slander>Kyara the UNHINGEDI think you meant to say the BULLY
>>290386728kino, almost as if he was a stand
>>290397545>>290397815Karl forgotten yet again...
>>290397881Karl wasn't mentioned because he is the HERO
>>290397881Karl the FORGOTTEN
>>290387664the glares this arc were top notch
ty OP, I am catching up todayQuestion for fellow goomblers>Do you have a snack or meal you eat while reading the daily?I ate Fritos a lot when I first read Usogui 2 years ago. I am eating them, and always crunch them when he crunches his strange candy.
>>290387979Every time I see Kyara getting mad over small shit like that I get reminded of Zebra
>>290397881Karl the PANTPISSER
>>290394783You're already dead, Yukiide
>>290394783Not removing the yen was his prerogative as per his organisations rules. The reason he didn't was to stay neutral. The reason why he's neutral is only properly explained near the end of the manga
>>290398338>his strange candy.It's a plum. But no I don't have anything particular that I snack on during these daylies
>>290386084>>290386129I'm looking forward to these niggas' shenanigans then.
>>290386129Two of them
>>290386618Marco the sneaky!
>>290386988Oh? Pompadourman isn't so neutral anymore.
>>290387406I can't believe Baku befriended such a scum.
>>290387944He's quite sharp.
>>290395451There's nothing to get hes just a cool dude
>>290386618THREE MAN!?
>>290395671Does this look like a man afraid of steak knives?
>>290396341No, he was already doing it before, he just didn't do the meek thing
>>290400648The warehouse meeting fight isn't the first example because he didn't ingratiate himself with the sweeper beforehand. That's the key difference between that moment and this one
>>290400703Fair enough
