I'm surprised that it was right, cause the mechanics of it don't work in the real world. Then again, the idea of "forgetting whatever you want" isn't real either.
@tripledraw
Not a handkerchief, but he could make use of his tie again, or a sock.
@BossCrab
The more interesting point is that Baku is already suspicious of Leader having such a capability. I wonder what the mechanics of it are. Does Leader impair his own vision (forget how to see?) in order to heighten his hearing? Or is it just something he's learned from a young age?
I doubt Leader really plans on not dying a second time this match. It'd be too good an advantage for him, both stopping Baku's 3rd death with all the fear he's wedging into Baku about Yakou's capabilities, and managing to force Baku to squander some time before his own death to come out at a big...

About the prediction:
@BossCrab
Stands to reason that neither player wants to be dead for 3+ minutes in a single go, so once they're close to 2 minutes of squandered time, they may want to fail a check to reset, at which point the opponent can force them to keep going. As you...
On the one hand, this is the exact situation where Souichi/Hal/Hachina would lose his memories. And given the conditions of the game, losing his perception of Baku could help. On the other hand, it'd be an odd chain of events after Air Poker for him to wipe his memory again.

Chapter 462, the results of the final round of Air Poker. No mention of "my child", and I think a lot of people ended up just assuming the silhouette was Baku himself, but with his hair actually styled. It could be a different person, but I have my doubts of it being...
@tripledraw
Can you explain the dream/flashback more? I don't recall Baku having one like that, the only two coming to mind are Kaji's during the contradiction game and Bai Long's nightmare.
@tripledraw
It's hard to outright deny those claims, since they're not completely out of the realm of possible, however even if Kakerou rewrote history after Tatsuki won, there would be referees within Kakerou aware of Baku, unless he changed his identity to have nothing to do with his former...
@Lithe
It's potassium chloride. The stuff really does stop your heart if it's injected into you at a sufficient amount. I believe it's used in some cardiac surgeries that require your heart to not be beating, and it's also used in lethal injections.
I agree that of all people to manage to pull...
@catx3 @tripledraw
I don't believe it will accumulate more than a minute even if the clock ends up readjusted. Yakou specified that a turn will be a minute at most, and that D must drop the handkerchief within that minute, and C must check. At most it would accumulate 2 minutes, the full turn...
@299792458
Good read, you pointed out a lot of observations that I think are definitely going to be relevant for the match.
What interests me about this match is that it feels more like the matches at the start of the manga. I mean this in the sense that starting from the Minotaur arc, all of...
About the rules of the game, does C actually need to find the handkerchief once he checks? For example, if the handkerchief is dropped right below him, C might not think to check under the chair. In this case, does it count as him failing the check, or is it irrelevant?
