Time to finish Volume 19 and see how it continues!
Looks like I got the "timing" right.
Other Volumeshttps://pastebin.com/9HGt1efZVolume 19 1/2>>290779807
You were almost late........
Here we go.
>>290849345Never
>>290849345He was late by a 1 second thin margin.
Wrong thread >>290849337This isVolume 19 1/2>>290824894
Hello lads. How's your luck going?
>>290849452What
>>290849430Like shit.
>>290849470Bravo Sako...
But then, who was phone?
>>290849518Google tells me Aizu is a Samurai City or something? So her father isn't dead?
I know it‘s late but how did Oshi realize that the producer was the killer. That page is >>290826305 is kinda hard to understand
>>290849586>Sup Kakerou, here's all of Japan for youThanks?
>>290849621I don't think he knew per se, he might have realized something was off but mostly wanted to be exposed by the facts as they were
>>290849621Oshi picked up on the producers shady words and he also wanted to repent by getting to know for sure what happened, as he had no recollection of the hit and run. Little of both in the end.
>>290849498Just in time for some gambling then hope things get better anon
>>290849582Oh no, they killed them both.
So the real plot begins now huh
>>290849662Ummm, why couldn’t he just blackmail those l file users himself discreetly using Kakerou when they literally run the labyrinth gamble and manipulate evidence
>>290849676Tomorrow I play Loto, 5 rows! Let's go gambling!I'd job again
>>290849732Things will be ramping up from this arc onward yes
>Arc reviewNeat
>>290849430Hi gamblers from a dogshit concert. I had a bet because the lady is a classical pianist and the guys a jazz drama it would be good but alas.>>290849707Sex between them
>>290849586>We've finally seized control of that large international clothing firm, Leader>Excellent. I'm sure I don't need to explain to you the myriad ways we can use this new power to better (checks notes) officiate death gambles between our fewer than fifty members
>>290849761This is for all the not-so-bright mo'fos.
>>290849793Infiltrating all sorts of government bodies is how Kakerou gains power and resources, which they need to better officiate gamblesThey are very dedicated to their purpose
>>290849807>>290849824I love and am proud of my son much bros. Do you even understand?
>>290849807HERO'S COMEBACK
>>290849683Wait so Baku didn’t even achieve Karamete the first time? Why follow a leader who changes rules on a whim despite holding Kakerou to a near perfect standard.
>>290849744Kakerou doesn't run the labyrinth game, they sinply handle collecting the alibis.Baku did use Kakerou to blackmail them, by running the KY game on live TV and showing that even those who already had a scapegoat aren't safe, even tho these 21 letters apparently don't have much evidence behind them.But once these blackmailed people accept Kakerou men into their inner circle, the evidence or other incriminating factors become usable for Kakerou.And Baku is doing all of this just to have another go at STL, a game which he lost.
Karl the hero...
>>290849768It's even worse for me... I was supposed to do THAT training but she fell sick!
Hola Gamblers
>>290849390If he posted despite being late, would that make him "on time" or would he still be late?
ENTER?Left and right guy seem like important characters
>>290849901ENTTEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
>>290849901IS THAT FUCKING KAZUMA KIRYU?!
>>290849923OUR HEROES!
>>29084990120 YEARS IN THE CAN!
>>290849900He was still earlier than "us"
>>290725051Baku would wear this
>>290849923I remember and anon being like "Baku just wanted to make a cute boy band".DOES THIS LOOK LIKE A SEXBOYBAND,?(yes.)
>>290849901>Join my gang, or else...!>You would be wise to join my gang.
OH SHIT
>>290850047Did this guy just call Bakus bluff?
>the more attractive character is the actual antagonist
>>290850093EXXXIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
>>290850093>KNIFEOH NO
>>290850093AAAAAA I'M SUBVERTED!
>>290849586>He's even using the pool stick like a Samurai swordCinema
>>290850115kek never noticed that before
>>290849430not great, but it will turn around for sure!
>>290850066It's more like he knows about the karamete so he's not just some rando
>>290850128oh it is this volume, i was wonderinglet's fucking go
>>290849744If Kakerou blackmails you directly, they lose trust. But if a Kakerou member blackmails you so that they can gain power inside of Kakerou, then it's zased
>>290850128And so "it" begins. Strap the fuck in.
>>290849846He fulfilled the conditions, that's why we could do STL to begin with. It's just that he had a more grandiose plan this time presumably
>PokerFuck yes i have been wondering if we see this in the manga.Have been playing it myself for years now

>>290850066>>290850136 Baku didn't have anything written down more likely >>290850191We've seen Kaji lose himself to Usogui thanks to Poker
>>290850303Kiruma has so much fucking aura in literally every panel he's inIt's absolutely insane
>>290850157El sexy
>>290850128 If a match between Kakerou members needs number 0 to show up why didn't he show up at hangman? Or is he saying that his exclusive referee is number 0?
>>290850324>god this guy just won't shut the fuck up
>>290850342It gets explained in a little bit.
>>290850191>on a later arc, Fukurou says that he burned his face himself to escape a gamble. Well Sako, which is it?
>>290850217RENTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE (cause it's backwards)
>>290850342The latter, the reason we're seeing this flashback is to explain why number 0 is present now
>>290850344How much is 20M yens?
>>290850242kek I can hear it
>>290850373About 20k dollaronis
>>290849807>>290849824kek I now realised that Baku probably picks out Marco's clothes.

>>290849807karl looks insanely cool, what the fuck
>>290850354 Why not both? He could just be lying here also.

>>290850571Wait fuck. His earring...! I got clocked once with a similar earring and a hawaiian shirt and was forced to confess when i already had a good lie...>>290850597It's simple. A suit is very expressive. Everything from the cut to how you knot your tie (or don't) infers a lot about a man.The patterned tie, the layered inlay, the confidentallt exposed handkerchief all gives you that instant stand out high ranking factor. Even without the fucking heelies.
>>290850628>has the same surname as leader which was already revealed ages ago>same hairdoYou’d have to be retarded to not realise they’re related

>>290850731kek
Considering how smart Souichi is, there is no doubt that Tatsuki was a monster in his prime. I wish we got see him show off in a gamble.
>>290850704Some nice faces there, I imagine Baku must be most annoying guy to referee for

>>290850785woah, he mentioned THAT?
>>290850757Why is this chadroller bullying our nice grandpa who brews death coffee?
>>290850776WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY MATCH?!
>>290850650HE CAN FLY!
>>290850785>Sir, what the fuck are you talking about
>>290850799Well he has a fucking great fight with Yakou even ifts only 10 seconds, and on flashback he riles up Kyara and implies he's stronger
>>290850757He honestly looks great for his age when put next to Yakou
>>290850817That's how you know he is strongand some other stuff but that will become relevant later
>>290850799 Well, we can make an inference BIIIIG SPOILERS AHEAD He was too strong to win but not too strong to not lose. So he's sub-Kyara tier
>>290850731A whole 50 yen?! He's a fool for not taking it!I do like that Kiruma humors him with an answer though, instead of just ignoring him.
>>290849901I would love a tie like that damn
>>290850839That's because being a referee is rejuvenating him
So did he do a little tap or not?

>>290850785Can someone explain what's going on here? I still don't get it
>>290850834It’s kinda funny how the series doesn’t just brushes aside the fact that number zero is the former leader and therefore Souichi’s father. It’s just revealed here in a regular panel, no full page or anything
>>290850884Being a Kakerou goon must be awesomeGet to watch these freaks do inhuman feats, watch amazing gambles up close, probably earn mad money and always look baller. Must be a breeze picking up chicks
>>290850894I actually didn't put that together until it was fully revealed later
>>290850863THE KOGA PRINCIPLE!
>>290850889SpoilerI believe he's talking about how he can't stand anyone stronger than himself.
>>290850628>I was thinking about doing something annoying to piss people with a common interest off because I'm mad about a website nobody else here is even talking aboutLiterally go talk to a doctor holy shit

>>290850972>arrives 4 minutes early with 5000 packs insteadIf you don't know your Referees quirks you won't get ahead in this game
I know how to defeat Leader!You have to defy him in a children's card game
>Already spoiling big stuffWell it was fun for new readers good luck not getting spoiled here
>>290850373At least at the time this Manga takes place, 100 yen is worth about 1 dollar. For easy math's, treat yen like its us cents
>>290850650I was always disappointed by this due to seeing it so much in OPT threads. I was expecting to be more than just an introduction/arrival. Personally, I've never been a fan of "this is a cool guy, look at how cool he is" like characters that haven't actually done much when introduced.The fact that he doesn't really exist that long before dying also makes him feel like a bit character to me.
>>290851042Anon you are still "green".I dont read anything that is longer then 6-8 words during the dump and nothing without a (You).
>>290850541ENTER EL PADRE DEL CHEFE

>>290851080Welp, everyone's dead. Pack it up boys.
>>290851080I can't believe Usogui is fucking dead
>>290851080Welp, that's a warp everyone.
>>290851134Check his helmet carefully guys, see if you can make out the design through the scan quality...
>>290851134Ride in style, that headset might be pretty high quality tech for the time.
>>290850978>he's contractually obligated to say Yakou brews good coffee or he'll be killedImagine
>>290851160>Judge. The sick maneuver, right now.>On it, Leader.
>>290850884Kyara's kick would've exploded that corpse btw
>>290850978>>290851199Yakou A would never!
>>290850911 Yeah it's very blink and you miss it but the manga doesn't shy away from it at all
>>290851212Does that helmet say The World with an image of DIO BRANDO?
>>290850910You can even fuck your boss if she finds you cute
>>290851134In case someone wonder this is a Honda WFR400R.
>>290851230Correct
>>290851234And if you're a girl. If you're talking about who I'm thinking of, she's a carpet muncher. Only CHADkuto got her engines going at the end of their gamble
>>290850951 Yakou's kind of endearing when he assumed the other person is a calm and reasonable individual at all times, despite all the evidence to the contrary
>>290851005I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY ARE GOING TO USE THE GOM JABBAR IN THIS GAME
>>290851268oh shit
>>290851005I've always wondered, does Kakerou have all of these props prepared in advance or do they just emergency order them on the spot?
>>290851253De hecho, soi
>>290849807Karl (La Momia)>>290850541ENTERWORST FUCKING DAD OF ALL TIME
>>290851268Judge, you can't break the masquerade just because leader talks about bleeding.
>>290851306he's not even the worst in this manga, not by a long shot. Neglectful sure, but he provided for leader.
>>290851317Next the caranon will tell us what that computer is.
>>290851345Looks like a laptop to me, over and out me.
>>290851267Fear is the gambler killer
>>290851335>no... I should say it's three peopleMy mind immediately interpreted this as him calling Marco a retarded
>>290851345A thinkpad laptop.I'm making shit up
Ok im intrigued for this game. Seems interesting.
>>290851428It's because Suteguma killed one of the guys that could have done a scan
>>290850391closer to 200k, you missed a 0
That's it for Volume 19!Thanks for reading and dont be a liar anon or the Guile Gobbler will come for you!See you tomorrow for the first half of Volume 20!
>>290851524Thanke OP.Two questions, no gamble today?And are you open to dumping Batuque after Usogui?
It felt like a minute...
>>290851487So I can buy a Mustang and a very good trailer with that
>>290851345I think it's a macbook but don't quote me on that
>>290851524Thanks, OPsanAlso that gamble where we guess your country, how does it work? Can I just make a guess here?I think you're czech
>>290851556Yes Hammond, you could.
>>290851524Thanks OP
>>290851570Good.
This is a riddle made for Jack-san only it's a 3 part riddle this is the first the next one is tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. It's a chance for him to reedem his jobbing. Anons will only get a point if Jack-san solves all three parts.I am older than a decade, but younger than a full moon's cycle.If you double me, I cross thirty, but my total does not touch forty.Exactly half of my digits are even, and my total value is odd.If you add my two digits together, you get a prime number.What number am I?Jack-san i want you to give me the explanation to this riddle not just the answer. Also to make it a little more interesting, you can use the points that you people have won for a hint.The Score right now is:SCORE: OP 6 - ANON 12You can use one of your points to get a good hint to solve it, you decide yourself to use it ignore the other anons.
>>290851524I liked that volume.
>>290851618WE BELIEVE IN YOU JACK!
>>290850917He's commenting on how amazed he is by his son's regular bouts of memory loss, hence why he comments on the shallowness of self with how he transforms from losing sets of memories.
>>290851524Will Kiruma survive?
>>290851618I'LL REDEEM THE JOBBING ANONS!
>>290849635>>290849662I don't really get this part. If the L file users are told, "I won't expose you if you hire this man," they know that man is a spy or something. And if they know that the Karamete spies are spies, doesn't that defeat the purpose?
>>290851540Yes i will do it.>>290851566Guesses can be made from tomorrow on in the volume threads.You have to declare it as a serious Guess like:I ANON GUESS THAT OP IS FROM and then the answer.I will only answer on those guesses with right or wrong.Also todays hint is we like cars
>>290851429It sort of looks like one from that era, but there's no clit mouse.
>>290851732It doesn't matter if they knowIf they don't do it their secrets get revealedIt's just blackmail
>>290851726I have high expectations from you Jack-san the riddles build upon each other maybe?
>>290851749I fear you are baiting me, but I'm convinced you are from Britain.
>>290850757>Ey bitch you lookin' at something?>N-no...The dominated male drops his tail.
>>290851080Sateguma is making a huge ACK face right there
>>290850757The one most capable of skating in this world... Yakou A stands no chance.
>>290851212Woah is that a Jojo's reference?
>>290851524Thanks for the dump anon
>>290851749>Yes i will do it.Awesome, I'll do some excercises to celebrate that.
>>290851268>>290851308Man these gambling addicts sure do have weird ears
>>290851230The helmet is actually official merch
>>290851480>>290851428It'll be explained probably in the very next chapter. If you're interested right now; you only get three chances to guess the password, get the third try wrong and the account is locked and both players lose, this is to prevent them from just rushing to the top and trying every number between 02 and 20
>>290851618I'm pretty sure I know the answer. Ganbare Jack-san.
>>290851618Not Jack-san but I think I figured out the answer, Ganbare Jack-san
>>290851749>spoilerI am assuming Italian or some sort of weirdo Baltic. But your skill at English implies you cannot be Italian (too lazy to learn as a stereotype) and likely some sort of fingolian or germanic. I must roll the dice
>>290851618I don't get the Exactly half of my digits are even, and my total value is odd...
>>290851618Does that "total value is odd" refer to the whole number or the sum of it's digits?
>>290852230The part about him saying there are neighbours who use the mosquito sound confuses me.
>>290852251That's probably that, English is not my first language so it's probably messing with me and my head hurts badly.
>>290852234>already jobbingThat our Jack-san! Dumb as a brick or Marco.
>>290852234Jack-san…Dont use our points>>290852230Isint English like mandatory in school?I mean yeah OP has better English skills than most people i seen here he can at least differentiate Your and You‘re
>>290850813Midna?
>>290852329>>290852334I need to go to sleep! I'm jobbing now!
>>290852382Take a powerful sleep, you mighty jobber...
>>290850541ENTER cool shoes
>>290851283IIRC there are a couple of traditional kakerou gambles that are mentioned at a later chapter, I think IIRC this one was even referred to as one in that list.
>>290851066hey look it's that guy from the cabin during the chapter where Leader's face was shown for the first time.
>>290851183I can't
>>290852259I'm not well versed on Mosquito noises so I'm just putting a pin on it for right now>>290852334>Mandatory in schoolsYesn't, not a Euro but English is a popular 2nd and 3rd language over there from what I've read elsewhere largely on 4chan but your average non-Brit euro is conversational but not quite so good as to post the way OP does. It's not like an Italian couldn't learn English this well but it helps me narrow things down. He's probably not Russian though
>>290852031kek he's such a kid.
>>290851524D-did he intentionally strand both of them on that island just because he wanted to force him to drink his coffee?
>>290850541Enter the second best referee
>>290852772Uh, anon you got it wrong. He's number 0 so he's the best referee actually. Maybe you have him confused with Yakou A who's referee number 2, meaning he's the third best referee.
>>290852966 Does anyone seriously buy that Nowa is number 1? Heh, that's funny. Nowa, No. wan (Numbah wan)
>>290852636>mosquito soundWell I can fairly certainly say that it's not well known over in the fingolian super empire. Google-fu claims UK uses it tho.
>>290852998When you sired like 25% of the referees and their mooks you get some perks when you are crippeled I guess.
>>290853058Does he know?
>>290849538>JUST LIKE THE JE-
>>290853097 I don't think he knows
>>290851267I did genuinely think it was gonna be some kind of pain box the first time I read it
>>290852966Kadokura is number 1 in my heart, and Kiruma is second
>>290849732it startes here. a stretch of hundreds of chapters going all the way to the final volume that could be argued as the greatest peak a mangaka has ever reached while delivering weekly chapters.
>>290853423>He doesn't think it started from the beginningAnon... since when have you assumed you weren't already charmed by Usogui? Arguably I'd say Lab should be included but artistically it was during the Bull Womb when he really started wow'ing me
>>290849901E N T E Rman, I'm already nostalgic about the first time I read this arc
I think of all the antagonists in the series, Suteguma has the most fun name to say out loud.
>>290853332Incorrect anonymous.Please give it some more thought and submit a better answer in the morning.
>>290850026I like this guy
>>290853598Well who are ur top 3 refs then pal
The Baku who keeps winning, doesn't exist.
>>290850650ENTER!This was the page in OPTs that got me to read Usogui
>>290850799The man closest to Kyara
>>290850093>>290850109>>290850128this sequence of 3 pages is very good at portraying that this gamble will be a step above everything we've seen so far, in several ways.
>>290851005>>290851267DUNECHADS
>>290853464I honestly believe Usogui becomes a "must read" in this exactly page and then never stops getting better. Before this page, I score it a 7.5/10.
>>290854507>Now come samurai>Put on a good showHe was kino This is a Shin Megumi Tensei reference, but Minowa is still kino
You know one thing I'm appreciating a lot more on a reread, minor spoilers ahead The show really lulls you into this sense that Baku is a responsible gambler and not a self-destructive fool like the guys who lose everything, and that Baku so far has an air of control and preplanning to everything that makes him more like the cool guys exploiting the terminal addicts And then you get to the grenade page, where Baku straight up goes "yeah lol, I didn't really have a plan" and then even further to the Chinese Sorcerer Martial Artist guy and it suddenly sinks in that "Wow, Baku really IS just like those goomblers" I think it's pretty clever.
>>290854693He has a plan, the plan is create situations so desperate (both for others and himself) that they give birth to gambles that go way further beyond simple life or death contests. He is the "someone who is suited to gambling" who Souichi lamented never having seen before
>>290854926 I really appreciate Mr. Gambler giving himself brain damage to entertain us
>>29085024210/10, I love you
>>290854926Which one is crazier, Baku or Akaji?
>>290855733I don't know who Akaji is
>>290855766Bruh
>>290855805That's not Akaji
>>290855811I misspelled the name, my bad
How powerful would Akaji, a combination of Akagi and Kaji be. Could he take Baku?
>>290855834Definitely, Kaji's the man, so imagine being the man^2. Not even a god of death could take on that
>>290855811But this is!
>>290855733Akagi's barely a character, just a plot device to spout whatever meaningless drivels Fukumoto thought of. Honestly characterization is Fukumoto's biggest problem.
>>290855961You're just dumb
>>290856243Well, it's true. Try to define Akagi's personality beyond "he likes to gamble". There's nothing there
>>290849582Yes, this anon >>290850504 is right
>>290856317There's a 30+ volume series explaining Akagi's personality and you've either read it and had it bounce off or you haven't read it so you're not really interested.
>>290856350I've read it yes, 99% of it is mahjongWashizu is the only character with a personality
>>290849621>I can only remember what happened later>Since I have no memory of during it happenedThen when oshi talked about how the memory kept torturing him, the producer immediately refer the memory as "what happened later", but he shouldn't know oshi doesn't remember how the accident happened
>>290856317A deeper exploration of Akagi's character actually takes place in *Ten*, which depicts him at a more advanced age. He is a warm-hearted figure who offers words of encouragement to both allies and enemies right up until the moment of his death.
great setup chapters, you can tell nobody is fucking around anymore
>>290856511Yes I've read Ten too.It doesn't actually explore Akagi's character beyond "I want to die as myself because that's more admirable than living as a vegetable". Who is "myself"? Who the fuck knows
>>290856526Especially Marco, he locked in on those sick skates.
>>290850463Wasn't Fukurou mentioned during the Building Escape Game?
>>290856529>Who the fuck knowsI do because I read the manga.
>>290856688Yeah I can tell you've been emotionally manipulated into thinking it's a great masterpiece because the ending of Ten is just so moving, oh my god Akagi is floating in space, I'm crying for real you guys this is the best manga ever
>>290856729I hope I'm at least wearing all my clothes in your fantasies about me.
>>290856758Buhu...Akagi is slightly less good at mahjong than he used to be...I'm crying bro.....buhu
Reminder
>>290850217ENTER
>>290850541ENNNNTTTEERRR
>>290855961I was going to reply to this post in earnest but then I read the rest of the reply chainGood bait 8/8
>>290856529>who is "myself"'ACK, MAKE IT STOP Just found the phrasing funny
>>290856820I'm not Mahjong pilled enough for this
>>290850182>>290850580The fact that Baki has done this twice already is absurd. It's crazy how he can build wealth at an exponential rate.
>>290857187Sometimes in poker you lose nearly everything but climb back up to chip leader in less than an hour. God I love gambling.
>>290849761on my first rereadI finally understand what is the karamete and what purpose it serves
>>290849824was this a jab at a real world event at the time?
>>290849824>>290849843arc just started and you can tell the art is already top notch
>>290850157>>290850128>>290850109>>290850093>>290850065cinematic boss battle entrance
>>290857332I think its probably to big an ask for an anon to know about an obscure japanese scandle from the esrly 2000s
>>290857187He probably has it easier on the second run desu.
>>290850512>>290850541saw this in an OPTnext thing I knew I was reading Usogui
>>290857187Could Baku take Baki?
>>290857635In a fight? Baku could probably outsmart most characters in there except for Yujiro (he's just that strong)
>>290851524Thanks OPYakou is going to kill another referee from what I see
>>290850247>Fukurou you don't need to do this cocky jobber act that hard
>>290857468>>290857332burned a few tokens because I was very curious and turns out it indeed is a real thing
>>290850217>>290850247wait is this fukurou
>>290850541I hope he gets voiced by Koyasu
>>290857933>but the timingI have a fucking worm in my brain.
>>290850217It’s funny how Fukurou unknowingly beat the fucking Leader and just thought that Usogui ducked him by sending a random kid
>>290850675honestly i didn't notice first time reading it
>>290849922Huh, the other guy kinda looks like Nishikiyama too.
>>290850128Yakoubros, why is he sweating...?
>>290850247That is the most monkey-like nigga so far.
>>290850731Kek.
Love how FKMTfags scrambled to protect their characters. They know Baku would run circles on them in a gamble.
>>290851473Suddenly, the omake is inked.
>>290851524Kek. Thanks OP.
>>290859863They're different types of gambles. That's the the joy of good gambling mangas. They all FUCK. and give you different MEANINGS and LIFE perspectives. It's okay anon.Both Kaiji and Baku are built for cute outfits and being bullied with money by older men. Please remove the hate in your heart.My other failson, Kazuya Hyodou, would have some fun with Baku when I get Marco visitation time. I like those two fakes both being from a different angle. >>290853739Fat tits (retired)Fat tits (old man)Fat tits (gilf)
So how much time passed after the labyrinth game? I assume a few weeks since baku needed to time to set all of this up.Also did baku plan to get the l-file as part of his grandiose plan?
>>290860738The L file was a happy accident it seems, it looked like his main goal from the beginning was attaining muscle, hands, and just straight money. With enough money he could probably bribe kakerous men through the karamete, or have the winning bet of a gamble be to let kakerou men through.
In a way the karamete benefits the challenger too, since if they win they only invested into themselves, and if they lose we'll they're dead and it doesn't matter.
>>290856365What he mean is Elder Akagi in Ten
>>290857187That's why people pissed and shit their pant the moment they hear someone actually pull the Surpass The Leader
>>290849318He did it, he perfected the cowboy shot angle.
>>290849381>>290849538So this little story is like a parallell to the current Kakerou vs MPD conflict, showing how Kakerou gained control over the old police system before the Meiji period when the MPD was established. Really neat.
>>290849582ye
>>290849586>>290850115It's very cool. I like how he's always playing some sort of game when we see him, in general. Golf, pool...
>>290849558Wonder if this is a real building.
>>290849586Wow Japan is really corrupt.
>>290849846No, Baku did. Leader is saying "I must have let him live because I thought he would give us even more power in the future".
>>290849732What a soft smile.
>>290849761I love Team Duwang for this.
>>290849807Looking good, Karl.
>>290857933Huh, neat. Thanks anon.
>>290849824Two great philosophers of our time.
>>290849843Hype
>>290860738Baku needs to somehow rules lawyer away his first StL loss, so the labyrinth (or just something the police use to fuck with alibi) was probably a target for him.
>>290849860Marco just drops Karl like a sack of potatoes... Does Marco hold against Karl since the rocket incident?
>>290850242kek
>>290849901>>290849923Nice
>>290850066Yeah.>>290850306And that's not a spoiler, Leader said so already.
>>290850047By the balls
>>290850093The twists!
>>290850128And turns!
>>290850157He gets a sexy cover page? This guy is no joke.
>>290850191iykyk
>>290850217I'm glad anons appreciate him.>>290858306Yep that's him.
>>290857909lol yeah. On my first read I thought he actually was just a jobber
>>290850303Radiant.>>290850317Was about to say.
>>290850354Changing the story, just like The Joker.
>>290850373I always short-hand yen to dollars as 100 yen = 1 dollar, even though it's not strictly correct.
>>290850416Yes some of my favorite panels lol
>>290850512>>290850541>>290850571>>290850597Hell yeah.
>>290850650Marco lol
>>290850678I like how disheveled he looks, a bit childish even with the one pants sleeve riding up his leg.
>>290861230Yeah, their english might be a bit lacking but their passion and effort isn't.
>>290861495This is like 20 USD btw
>>290849824>niichan's channel>niichannel>2channel
>>290850731love him
>>290850416>Shivering effectMan Fukurou is really fucking good at fake being losing
>>290850779lol
>>290850757>Yakou's thoughtssubtle
>>290858669oh boy you are in for a treat during Surpass the Leader
>>290851667Fair point but I think previous anon is right.
>>290850813This is a cool page and ties in well to one of this arc's themes, karma. Karma seems to have several meanings here including fate, bloodline, inheritance, or path in life. Here I assume he's talking about how the Kiruma family are somewhat demonic or abberant.
>>290850972lol
>>290857909He really need to act as jobber just to make it believable to BakuOn side note, did Baku foresight that he will fight Satoru that he keep watching that tape between Satoru and Fuku?
>>290851066RE-ENTERThe guy from exactly 140 chapters ago.
>>290851134Awesome-
>>290851236Of course we were wondering. Thanks factsanon.
>>290851188Sick
>>290851212>>290851230>>290852031That is awesome. 4th read and I never noticed before, thanks anons.
>>290851228Hey Nanpou. I forget what his rank was before and I wonder if he took up Amako's rank after Amako's death.
>>290861840Oh nvm, I guess he was. >>290851248I like how Judge is counting out the crimes.. like a Judge!
>>290851268>>290851301This volume has so many cool pages man lol. Sako farming the OPTs.
>>290851402I like that they are immediately trying to read each other without even knowing what the rules are yet. Of course they are astute so they know the number of beads takes is likely important.
>>290851473This omake is fun.
>>290851524Thanks OP. With yesterday and today's thread, this volume as a whole was absolutely awesome.How will referee Kiruma get out of this one?
>>290851618>If you double me, I cross thirty, but my total does not touch forty.Is the "total" here also the value that you get from doubling the initial number?>does not touch fortyThis can mean either that it's lower than forty, or simply that it is not forty. Which is it?>and my total value is odd.The value of the number, or the sum of its digits?
>>290854693I agree.>>290854926And I disagree, the page you posted is part of the sequence where Hal realizes Baku is, deep down, a mouse who keeps flicking the randomized food switch. Yes, Baku has an overarching plan with his actions. But before he formed that plan, he was an is in essence, a gambler.Baku Madarame is a gambler.
>>290857574Yeah the OPTs got me too. Like "Cool page. Another cool page. Oh they were all from the same manga?"I appreciate you OPT Usogui spammer.
>>290860644What a picture.
>>290860738Spoiler text to pad out the spoiler YES text to pad out the spoiler
>>290861565lol
>>290861568woah
>>290861675Yeah probably. Peep the narration in the lower right panel. >>290850093
I jobbed...
>>290859724I like how this arcs antagonist either looks like a ghoul or an eagle depending on the framing
>>290861638Don't forget Karma (violence
>>290862490That's interesting. Mind elaborating a bit?
>>290862593 Later on inside this very gamble Karma is used in lieu of explaining both side's access to an overwhelming force of violence, which can be seen as an extension of fate in Marco and Billy
>>290862800I see, interesting.
>>290860777>and if they lose we'll they're dead and it doesn't matter.Trips of luck for our sanest gambler
>>290851473>>290851497>>290851524I might be wrong, but isn't this side story for Volume 20?
>>290863488You are correct
