WHO WILL BE THE BIG LIAR?WHO WILL DIE AGAIN?LETS SEE
>>292069970Yaay!Probably one of my favorite covers
Other Volumeshttps://pastebin.com/9HGt1efZVolume 46 1/2>>292030777Volume 46 2/2>>292050263
>>292069977Colored version of this is very homoerotic
>>292070006Hmmm i also really like that cover
Finally, right timing and all that.
>>292069970>Our antagonist is in BIG troubleSouichi's comeback soon
Looks like I got the "timing" right.
>>292070053Simple page but still very strikingAs per usual, Sako doing amazing art
Here's how Leader can still win this...!
>>292070284>referee Douji...I don't have anything specific to say to you, but just know I can easily read your thoughts
I totally forgot about the incessant the commentary. Really drags the whole arc down desu.
>>292070214*thumpthump*
Read like a Book!
>>292070355>leader starts groping an invisible ballsack
>>292070355Is leader...groping imaginary balls?
>>292070378The rubiks cube to leader is what the kariume is to Baku
>>292070303!!
Our protagonist is in BIG trouble!
>>292070378It's been a while since we saw Leader with a rubik cube...I have a bad feeling
>this anon is "complaining" about the commentary?>could it be... is that his strategy?
>>292070378>creates a rubiks cube out of nowhere How many powers does he have?
>>292070401He’s back in alien mode now
>>292070417when you're an alien they let you do it
>>292070378>pulls out rubik cubeOur gambler may be in trouble
>>292070378does sako actually think this is cool
It’s just symbolic, but the fact that leader is actually capable of solving multiple Rubik’s cubes with each one of his hands is an insane feat
>>292070467It gets less impressive when you find out how easy rubik's cubes are to solve
>>292070465He'd be correct
>>292070462>the referee is dying during the gamblenot very perfect
>>292070507>DyingSome light bleeding, at worst he would lose his arm.And Makami is still kicking so i doubt Yakou would have any trouble.
>>292070514menacing yakou
>>292070493I'd say it's a bit harder when you consider that he's not even looking at it and that it's all in his head.Actually, why would he need to see it if it's all in his head? Am I fucking retarded?
>>292070550ENTER, the worst mother in the series
>>292070532Untreated necrosis can cause death
>>292070550I want to suck on those titties
>>292070567So this loops back to the Magician’s Choice in how people think they get to choose when its all been determined? By the magician known as fate?
>>292070557Kaji's mama...
>>292070608CHI CHI CHI
>>292070284>If you were able to turn back time, would you want to go back to the first time you lost?That's pretty profound for such a throwaway line.
>>292070628>mentions Einstein and GalileoI have depicted myself as the redditor and you as the chud.
This bitch and Eba for showing him the tape are responsible for all of Souichi’s mental problems btw, it all comes back to her. Ultimately, it wasn’t due to Kakerou or his father
>>292070653This is giving me a bit of those types of vibes right now.
>>292070654>Tatsuki was the better parentfucking surreal man
>>292070532I remember someone saying that if he uses too much that hand he could die but maybe it was a post not the manga lol.
>>292070693What are the bottom panels? What did you do, Kaji???
>>292070718The author's ability to draw folds in clothing is out of this world.
>>292070694No, it's from the manga. I think it's right after the hand chopper game.
>>292070718>Leader punching Koga in the liver
>Souichi sits like eko >both are strict believers in destiny>Baku sits like Tatsuki>both just live the way they want as free spirits SAKOOOO
>HOWEVER>Leader also had a mother
>>292070803Baku will get his parental zenkai boost soon, trust.
It’s time for leader’s glaze to begin now
Yakou could have chosen to propose any game he wants but he just had to propose one in which he has to push hard against his mangled hand to resuscitate the players. There is something wrong with this kind old man who brews delicious coffee.
>>292070830Marco...
>>292070895>Ranko's top is back upBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>292070895>Mogami and Ranko have finished having sex and composed themselves
>>292070876Detective conan murderer vs detective conan murderer
>>292070913KEK
OH SHIIIIIIITTTT
>>292070895I choose to believe that in the bottom left corner is the scene after Uncle Leo cleared his throat with a loud "AHEM" and the two lesbians in heat finally went "alright alright sorryyy" like kids caught by angry dad.
>>292070969>"oh shit I got up too fast"
>>292070895>Mogamihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZsspTYH674
>>292070944>tfw you didn't get the "timing" right (you jobbed to the 4th dimension)
>>292071010THE "TIMING" IS RIGHT!
>>292071010Bloody hell, three fucking pages of build up
>>292070694>>292070768It's from chapter 488 during Yakou vs Kadokura>"I said that this hand "barely kept its form"...">"That wasn't exaggerating... It's true.">"Its started necrotizing. The doctor said: "It won't move again."">"If any impact damages the fixed arteries, the worst scenario is that I'll die."
What the FUCK
>>292071010why is leader such a fraud
>Aged 10 years
>>292070969>HOWEVER>>292071010>Baku got the "timing" right!Such a "high level" goomble!
>>292071050gakt melting down is kinda cute, shows how much he values his partnership with Souichi
>>292071068You've got it all wrong
>>292071031>>292071050https://youtu.be/C65oaIHsdYM
>>292071075Leader's got insane bluff game for sure.
Sako these arent a mans lips...
>>292071108>>292071103HOWTHE FUCKDID HE KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING!?
>>292071068Leader this has "However" and "Hexes", he just got a "autistic mom flashback".
>>292071108>real time how Kaji and Gackt swap expressions
>>292071108>Sako to his wife: "come here and show me your mouth"
>>292069970>here>wipe that thing off your face
>>292071129>I lost on purpouse XDDDDgetting lamer and lamer
>>292071129>I knew you would get the "timing" right, Baku! After all, we are all "me"!
>>292071150APOLOGIZE
>>292071172OO
>>292070053Because he turned full body I thought that Leader walked in front of him and dropped the hankerchief in front of him for some reason
>>292071163>this anon when the world chess champion sacrifices a rook to get a checkmate in 2 moves>UGH HE DID THAT ON PURPOSE? TALK ABOUT LAME!! WHEN ARE THEY GONNA START PUNCHING EACH OTHER??
Sako please, stop with all the characters reacting. It's feels like I'm reading One Piece.
>Usogui is getting the "barbecue"Looks like I'm a late to the "party"...
>>292070284Introducing telepathy this late into the game is a bit farfetched
>>292071221So he's saying that this is... an aura battle?
>>292071129>I HAVE OUTSMARTED YOUR OUTSMARTING JOJOOOOOO!
>>292071257Marco the INTUITIVE
>>292070378We're reaching Baki levels of schizophrenia
>>292070378>My imaginary cube give me super intellect
>>292071345>the "safe" strategy never existedUnfathomable subversion
>he’s been making weird hand movements the entire timeHoly autism
>>292071379>HOWEVER>Baku was never going for the inexistent safe strategy.
>>292071392He's fondling his imaginary cube, that's give him a super boost in intellect.>that's bullshitWe have "arrived" at Baki, now.
>>292071417My thoughts exactly Ranko
>>292071010>I astound myself with my own brilliance
>>292071129>haha I predicted I'd get my ass beat
>>292071471https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8vlNbk0Yww
Suteguma > Lalo >> Leader
>>292071197ayy lmao ranko
>>292071257Marco is clearly an instinctual general
I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL MYSELF BAKU I'M GOING TO FUCKING DO IT HAHAHAHA WHAT NOW BAKU-BOY!?!?
>>292071535BAKU WATCH OUT FOR THE BIG TIDDY GRIM REAPERS
>>292071535Reminds me of the grim reaper page in abandoned building
>>292071488>about to get defeated>Leader: "NOT HAPPENING~ I'M DYING NOW!"
>>292071516cute rankowhoever told me her design gets worse later on was out of his mind
>>292071417>Mogami, do that thing again!
>>292071552>reverse compliment hexingIs that a new "meta" move?
>>292071488>I will win by dying first.>I will make the CPR guy cripple himself doing CPR on me.Uhhhhh.
>>292071435>leader-san I kneel!
>>292071568Boi I'm boutta beat yo ass
>>292071568Kek I think if anyone other than Leader said this Yakou would've thrown hands
>>292071516>>292071574I agree, that's a very cute ranko
>>292071602Expect that Mogami ruin every page she's on.
>>292071596He might just pull out his gun
Who the fuck cares what the random mooks think?Stop it…
If Yakou wasn’t weak, Souichi given how much stronger he is could probably afford to die more than 3 times. Ironically Yakou is fucked up mainly because of his dad
>>292071624DONG
>>292071624BAKU YOU FUCKING IDIOT!
>>292071601I like how this just turned into a competition of who can die first
Such a simple game has become quite complex now>tfw it’s now harder to keep up with than ToK because of the trippy dreams and mind games
>>292071620Mogami is cute too
>>292071657Not the first time he lied to Baku
>>292071672He is going to skip checking, thus 'missing' and counting as a failed check?
>leader keeps communicating in african tribal language through clicks
>>292071658This has nothing to do with the mind games, it's the clusterfuck of characters reacting that has almost nothing to do with the gamble.Like : "ZOMG HE'S ABOUT DO DIE !!!1!!11!!!"
>>292071417Kaji is watching a kengan tournament
>>292071699>the tribe in questionhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbH4Ja1Kcmo
What do lies taste like?
Uhh technically this is still a win for Baku.
>>292071454>search daifugo on google>fucking one piece comes out first
>>292071731Kariume. Fucking obviously.
>>292071731cum
>>292071534kek
>>292071766Well done, Kaji. You have "arrived"...
no fucking way they're coming back after dying for cumulative 3+ minutes. The next one to drop will drop.
One more chapter
>>292071795Well fuck me bye Baku
>>292071801Isn’t this what Baku wanted? Leader is just trying to kill him through attrition
Anon wished for another chapter and who am i to deny that wish!
>>292071816Stone cold delivery of that line, i got chills.
>all those deaths just to winIn someways this is just like a "gu ritual"
would Leader have won if he actually stuck to the dying three times strategy himself
>>292071878Y-yeah Yakou, you look great and not about to keel over at all...
Well Anon do you believe in something after dead?I do
>>292071896I do not
>>292071933>Wake the fuck up, gambler>We came to drag you to hell
>>292071933>Yakou is both among the living and the deadNever noticed that before
>>292071552I get that he has a broken arm and a shattered hand, but does he also have problems to his skull? or is it there just for spookyness
>>292071933>Sadakuni>Mekama>the gay molester>and ???
>>292071964Thanks for reading Usogui, y'all!
>>292071984S-SHARINGAN
>>292071964Baku has a lot of blood on his hands, but he always went up against degenerate gamblers so, not really a loss
>>292072022I prefer Baku’s slicked back hair look
>>292071816a-all within plan Bakubros
>>292071658>mind gamesFucking where
>>292072043That looks like Eba and for him to dream about him, that means the two met before. Baku did read the prince bee after all
I’m guessing the Greenland shark will be another foreshadowing build up moment that I’m too srupid to understand right now
>>292072149bruh
That's it for the first half of Volume 47!Thanks for reading and dont be a liar anon or the grim reaper with booba will come for you!See you tomorrow for the second half of Volume 47!
>>292072172Uhhh someone explain this?
>>292072172Thanks for the dumpSee you tomorrow>5 days remain
Sooooooooo... Baku is winning, right?
>>292072172Diabolical cliffhanger
>>292072225I'll leave that open to interpretation.
>>292072225Well, right now he's winning under purgatory rules.
>>292072197What comes after 59 seconds in a minute?
>>292072197Baku survived the alotted near death time. Now he has to survive the time it takes to revive him. He chose to keep running from the grim reaper.>>292072225It really is hard to tellIt's not as simple who has the lead. As seen in the match, even exhausting Yakou is a valid strategy. One wrong check and all could be over.
>>292072225Well he's dead now.
>>292072327>Baku-san, are you jerking off to strip poker matches?
This is traced from akagi
>>292072225He's winning by using that 4000 years old Chinese technique that even defeated Yujiro.
>>292071982Kadokura hit him in the head a couple time
It's Kaji's birthday! Say something nice about him.
>>292071534YO LIL BAKU
Yakou is like the one guy who doesn’t magically heal severe injuries offscreen. Kinda bullshit desu.
>>292072386He pulled out when he raped me
>>292071896I have no idea
>>292072390Kaji is still wearing a cask
>>292072386That's our clever creep!
>>292071933>Hey you're awake.>2017? What are you talking about it's 2006.>Protoporos? Ideal? Drop the handkerchief? Forget that nonsense we have hangman to play!
>>292072172Thanks OP
>>292072225Probably
>>292072354Bai Long also knocked him out with a finger bullet
>>292072386He's my favorite character! A literal hero!
>>292071150NORWAY!
>>292071568Yakou is going to break a bunch of leader's ribs for that comment.
>>292071896I do.
>>292072457Marco was beaten half to death multiple times, Kadokura got a massive brain injury and received superpowers as a result.Amon is basically totally fine already despite being completely fucked up.Multiple characters have been stabbed and bled like pigs with no adverse effects.
>>292072386
>>292071376>well my hair gives me the power to defy gravity!
I'm starting to think Yakou will be the one that actually permanently dies in this gamble.
>>292072912That would piss me off, but you might be right.
>tfw finished it on my own and now I have to wait 5 days to talk about it
>>292072072What do you mean
>>292072912Oh god you're right
>>292073000checked and yup in the same situation this manga is so fuckign cool
>>292070550This is not the first time I've seen this "late night TV show schizobabble" in a manga. I think this kind of interview was common in Japan back then.From what I searched the most popular one was when the Shoko Asahara cult members gave an interview 2 days after they did the Tokyo subway sarin attack.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SkMM8uaOIw
>>292073466Isnt American used to have suicide cult?Like, literally, all the cult participating the biggest suicide ever?
Did Baku's eye heal or is he still blind in that eye? It hasn't been drawn all red in a while so I can't tell
>>292072128>Schizobabble about sharksDoes this relate to the timing trick that Baku was supposedly planning? The fuck is happening.
>>292073514>Greenland sharks have the longest lifespan of any known vertebrateSo is Baku planning to accumulate more than 5 minutes? He already had a weird revival during the air poker match, so did he prepare something to deal with a game like this? I have no idea how he could've known though, nobody allied with him ever got near those submarines they got the drug from, right?
I'm willing to be the dream sequence spoils the entire gamble if you interpret it right.
>>292073646And more
Every non moe thread I visit is filled with Kenganfag memes, how the hell did this happen
>>292073511Kyara's aura healed it
Man the author really loves fukumoto huh?
>>292073511meta explanation is probably that sako got tired of drawing it or thought that it wouldn't fit the STL imageryin universe for all effects and purposes it healed yeah
>>292073839If you dislike the fights you can blame Fukumoto
>>292073839FKMT, Baki and Jojo are the main influences, yeah.
>>292073839who doesn't?
>>292071108>>292071129>Gackt going from "it's so over" to "we're so back" while Kaji goes from "we're so back" to "it's so over" in perfect sync
>>292071010...What if Baku actually want to fail here?I know I'm spurting nonsense but what was he planning
>>292071999Another hint of his true intention since there's no real time out in this gamble
>>292072225He's planning to have 2nd near-death and he got what he wishAll according to keikaku
>>292070465it was a different time
>>292073787>"We" are all in "perfect sync">/a/ is just a really big Gu ritual.>You scaled the wall and arrived at schizophreniaWhich one of these is the correct answer?I'll leave it open to interpretation.
>>292071964>Samemaru-sama and Magoroku didn't make the cutIt's not fair.
>>292071534kekaroo
>>292071163Are you acting stupid on purpose?
>>292075612Baijin Anon?no..."I" am the original "Baijin Anon"...
>>292075613They're not dead
>>292076163>Last seen about 300 chapters ago being led away by fucking Martin saying what good friends they all wereAnon...
>>292076185It's fine, they scammed him out of his phone and wallet and left
>>292076131"We" are all "faceless"
Baku’s goal is to be dropping at odd minute (8:59), and he’s dropping at even minute now. Let the accumulated time be M minutes and some seconds, the interval between a purposeful failed check and next turn would be M+1(penalty)+2(minimal break)+1(rounded up stray seconds) minutes, or M+4. So from my understanding Baku very much fucks up here since he’d need to die when his accumulation is 1 min something so the order “switch”. He really lucks out/successfully bluffs as Hal does that reset for him later
>>292072197spoilers anon.
>>292076205Well said..."me"
>>292076260Your formula is already wrong because in Round 1-1, the turn started at 8:12:00, Baku then died for 1 min (penalty only) and then the game resumed at 8:17:00.It's not M+4.There's no mathematical formula, Yakou just rounds up to give you time to rest. After all, time shouldn't even matter in a game like this if you're not going for the leap second strategy, which Yakou didn't know.Baku confirmed this during Round 2-2, which started at 8:21, then Hal died for 1m24s and then the next turn started at 8:26Here during Round 6, Baku will die for 1m30s and the game will restart at 8:43. Later on Hal will die for 2m30s which will make the game stop for 6 minutes (not 5 like the previous ones), which will make Baku the D at 8:59:00
>>292071010Bakus face really doesn't fit with the results.
>>292069970I wish there were clean page of this volume cover.
>>292071488>Baku wants to kill himself>why would he do this?>baku is perfect...>therefore if I stop him and kill myself first, I will be perfect
>>292071896I believe in what makes me personally most comftorable.that there is nothing and I cease to exist completely
>>292072022Now this is THRILLER!
>>292077262I see, yeah it's more like M+5, not really a formula but more like a pattern based on Yakou's fair-play policy for them. Also I forgot there's the 1 min interval between rounds
>>292072225Just one more death and Baku has this in a bag!
>>292072172Thanke OP, hope you are enjoying this. Let us hear your predictions again.
>>292069970This is maybe the 2nd best volume page Sako has made
>>292071150APOLOGIZE RIGHT NOW
>>292071672>>292071685>>292071702>>292071766Loving how this has turned into a battle of wits where even the spectators can't keep up with these two. Baku seems to be losing his composure with every passing second, and the Leader's confidence is terrifying. I just don't know where these griefer(s) came from to this thrad, that's my only complaint.
>>292071878"That's your second death today" goes unnecessarily hard. Balls of steel. Usogui has that JoJo-esque quality of turning something as mundane as a game of napkins into something epic.
>>292071396Its true what Usogui is saying though, if Leader accumulates 1 min here its basically over for him
>>292073000What was your reaction to the final trick?
>>292072072what?
>>292070854Refusal to acknowledge ones limits in the face of new limitations is like that
>>292070284>>292070262He's just vagueposting to look cool here, right?Right? And to make them lower the sound of the clock
>>292078677The gamble is overly reliant on quasi magical bullshit and extreme contrivance
>>292078967like?
>>292071658>harder to keep up with than ToKAir Poker and StL is as straightforward as any gambles in Kaiji or Liar Game.
>>292070378ENTER RUBIX CUBE
>>292070362>>292070380He's practicing his prostate massage. He's a pro, you know.
>>292070895>Convenient censorship of Ikon's crotch
>>292079629Was there something you were hoping to see?
>>292078967Too much thinking involved? Maybe you got confused by the character speculations since you are used to lazy writers just telling you straight up how things are?
>>292079629
>>292070362>>292070380He's playing Air Balls.
>>292070608I was half expecting her to go YES, I AM!
>>292070916>Fukurou made all the visuals in powerpoint or some shit
>>292071010>He honest to God tried that same shit again where he dies on purpose
>>292071259>tfw you see two manipulators fightingThe most cerebral of nen battles indeed
>>292080333Why dont' they bandage the guys bleeding FFS?
>>292071852>>292071866It's ironic to see that these two are playing different games based on what they know about each other. Souichi is using his knowledge but not experience of Usogui to shake his resolve while Baku is using his experience with Hal and Souichi 3/Perfect Leader to play the game out properly
>>292072004>Degenerate gamblersMore like degenerate, distorted, and augmented gamblers
>>292071878Yakou...
Did I miss the baku chair panel? the funky ass one with the top down view and the smile? or have i just hallucinated a page? It always stuck with me.
>>292078572This is also almost his third death this week because he also drowned in the air gamble once
>>292069970Nice pink color palette.
>>292069977Here it is, I love this dust cover.>>292070019Do you have it?
>>292069970Look at that subtle off-pink color. The tasteful value contrast. Oh my god, it even has a focal point.
>>292081103Gotta keep the pace up
>>292070214nice. like that gackt page
>>292070284Well? What was Douji thinking?>>292070635Can you elaborate? I don't get it.
>>292070335Nice. Was it in 1984 there was a line like "Even if we keep a perfect facade, they will still monitor our heartbeats"
>>292070378Can (You) visualize a Rubik's Cube perfectly in your mind, turning it and memorizing where each square is? That would be elite level visualization.
>>292070401hmm
>>292070553Doing a Rubik's Cube blind and doing one in your head (accurately) is almost the same right, since you are visualizing the Cube in your mind.
>>292070550Karma...
>>292070567So that's where Souichi got his personality from.>>292070612Ohhh yeah maybe.
>>292070663Oh he was quoting his Mama
>>292070781Does Baku really sit like Tatsuki?
>>292070949Kind of looks like it>>292071010amn
>>292069970is that one punch man in the picture?
>>292071129>>292071150NANIII
>>292081044Baku could be a manipulator yeah, he's the man with the plan, got his emotions in check, and cares about the people close to him. On the other hand he could also be a transmuter since he's manipulaTIVE but he's not that emotional. Lalo would be a transmuter I think.
>>292081044And Leader, boring as it is, would probably be a Specialist. Independent and charismatic.
>>292071257Always retardmaxx
>>292071345>>292071367Ok.. but why did Baku wait until now to try to die? Why not in the 4th or 5th round?
>>292078016lmao true
>>292071551I 'member>>292071535Did assistant-chan draw this one? Cute grim reapers.
>>292071568nice
>>292071657But naze didn't Riida ushiro ni muite?>>292071702A low risk check I guess, in case Baku read him.
>>292082202It'll all make sense at some point
>>292071658I agree especially with the dream hints and symbolism some of which you don't get an explanation to until the epilogue so I don't know if it's even possible for a first time reader to grasp everything going on here lmk if I'm wrong.
>>292080333Coffee trips of insanity
>>292071863It might have made it Leader's turn as D during "that" at least.
>>292071878lol>>292071896Yeah. Mostly because of personal experience with the supernatural, and if non-physical beings exist, then maybe I am or will be one after death.
>>292071974true
>>292072022Love this dream sequence.>>292075010ye
>>292072108ohh
>>292072086This page is great. It's like when you're reeaaaaally sleepy and have to fight to get up. Makes you wonder if the knife guy is just a manifestation of Baku fighting to stay conscious or Eba's spirit coming to drag Baku to the other side and protect Souichi-sama.
>>292072128>>292073514
>>292072172Thanks OP!
>>292072348Not unless Baku secretly drew blood beforehand to perform an on-site dialysis to flush out the NDD in his body.. wait imagine if he did do something like that.
>>292072386Happy Birthday Kaji. He had a nice fit in the Bee arc.>>292072457Marco too>>292072390Kyara never gets a chance to heal and just gets more worn down until his death (because of that slave driver Usogui)
>>292073843intents
>>292081320not yet
>>292070447What's your destined battle, anon?
>>292082134>>292082121The intersection between conjurer, manipulator, and specialist is very small desu.
>>292072043>it's an abandoned building>AGAINAHHHHHHHHI am curious though, for any of you learned anons, what is it with Japan and abandoned buildings?
>>292082900Not sure what you're saying. That they are usually not similar to one another?
>>292082289So you don't know either? Cause I know Baku was also thinking of "that" but I mean why is Leader and Kaji reasoning that Baku was neither allowed to accumulate more NDD OR die in the 4th or 5th round? That doesn't make sense to me. Why is it ok if he dies now but not before?
What’s stopping leader from "accidentally" hitting Yakou when he’s revived and weakening him thus making it harder for him to revive baku? Obviously, he wouldn’t because he wants to win the "right" way vs Baku, but Yakou wouldn’t be able to prove he did it on purpose and there’s rules against touching the referee. If Yakou was too weak to continue, would Baku try to get another referee to stand in his place? Of course, Yakou is too prideful to let it happen
>>292072267meeeeeeeee!
>>292083641Acts of violence were explicitly forbidden. Could Leader make it look accidental while hitting Yakou with meaningful force? And even hit Yakou, a combat monster? Maybe. In that case, Yakou would have to decide if Leader did it intentionally or not.
>>292083641And Yakou doesn't need proof if it was accidental or not, only his decision as a referee. So Yakou might make Leader lose because of that, or let Leader get away with it if Yakou would blame himself for letting such a thing happen.
>you can't win if i kill myself first
>>292083641Yakou would murder the ninja fag for even trying
>>292079843Ikon's gigantic penis
>>292071863Its heavy implied Baku is much, much better at this game than Hal. Baku manipulated the timings perfectly. If you look at the squandered times, it was almost nothing every time he really wanted to check. And there was that last exhange. Hal even with echolocation had more squandered time. Hal is too fixated on Baku the gambler while Baku sees leader as Hal.
>>292082121What would the others be? Marco is an enhancer obviously. Kyara might be as well, but could also be an emitter. Not sure what Kaji would be.Also I'd argue Baku is more of a transmuter.
>>292084692i think they'd all be Specialists (can do anything the writer needs them to do) :)
>>292081867>Can you elaborate? I don't get it.I read the "trying to turn back time" line as Leader asking what Fukurou is prioritizing more, the nature of a gambler to win at all costs (thus asking if he would erase his past losses if he could) or if Fukurou values the experiences that made him who he is today, even if they were sour or bitter.The question is also pretty profound because it's something Leader grapples with himself due to his memory loss and his pursuit of perfection
>>292081909So you are saying that leader can visualize the entire transformer 2 movie in his head?
>>292085297Not only that, he can turn it around in his head
Should i read the myth of sisyphus?
>>292085355Sure
>>292085355I don't think it's worth reading that kind of stuff if you're not like 35 or older.
>>292084692I think Kyara is also an Enhancer. Tatsuki is an Emitter, with his adhd and impatiently not putting on his clothes properly. Judge (Touya Masateru) is a Conjurer because he's high-strung. I'd say Kaji is an Emitter larping as an Enhancer because of his tendency to hastily leap into dangerous situations.
>>292085666>need to be 35 to read good literature Damn…
>>292084692>Also I'd argue Baku is more of a transmuter.How so? I'm curious.
>>292085035Mm ok. That makes sense. When I read "Would you want to go back to the first time you lost" I thought Leader meant to go back to right after that point in time, which I didn't see the purpose of. But going back to before you lost, either to forget it or to change the past, makes way more sense. Thanks.
Remember the line from tatsuki, "isn’t your life a karma much more entertaining than mine", it becomes a lot more meaningful in these last 3 volumes with Eko’s destiny talk
>>292085738You can read it whenever you want I just don't think reading philosophy books and stuff before you've had a lot of time to do your own thinking is super productive. You can also just read it now and re-read it later or whatever.
>>292072225A gambler that keeps on winning doesn't exist
>>292085767From what I remember manipulators are more logical and make everyone else adapt to their plans and pace, whereas trasmuters are more mischievous and chaotic. Both can kinda fit Baku, but I think transmuter fits him better (and manipulator fits Leader)
>>292070284Like a galaxy and his stars
>>292086436>make everyone else adapt to their plans and paceActually that was never said to be a trait of Manipulators in HxH. What is said about them is that Manipulators are logical and do things at their own pace. The Japanenglish phrase is "My-pace" which also means being a bit oblivious to others, like Illumi or even Bianca from Pokémon who gets that phrase attributed to her.It is also said that they care a lot about their family and friends. I suppose you could say that fits Leader because of his relationship with Baku, but I still think Leader fits Specalist more as being independent, yet having a charisma that gather people around them. (Like Chrollo, he is also the leader of a superorganism where everyone is part of the whole but replaceable at the same time)Thinking about it more, I think Transmuter might fit Baku better yeah.
Manabe checks all the Manipulator boxes doesn't he.
>>292084692>Marco is an enhancer obviously. Kyara might be as well, but could also be an emitterMarco is an emitter because he is impatient, as seen in Labyrinth and this dump. Kyara is an enhancer.
>>292072072We're in a game inside Baku's mind right now though?
>Kengan x Hunter Storytime
>>292081320Saturday. Stay tuned.>>292081933The difference is that imagining a 3D object with 6 sides and 54 pieces of different colors rotating for over 30 moves is pretty much impossible. Blindfold Rubrik would be much much easier.
>>292087857Don't you need to visualize the Rubik's cube if doing it blindfolded? I have no idea.
what if baku just stuff the handkerchief into leader's mouth until he can't breath no more?
>>292089080. . .
>>292089080I'd like to point out Leader could snap Baku's neck as easily as he breathes
I get it would destroy the tone, but in this kind of game trash talk is a viable strategy and so is doing stuff like making weird noises to distract your opponent. Also, wet willies don’t count as violence right? :)
