"Antagonist gets a Power of Friendship buff" is one of my all time favorite tropes ever, I'm a huge sucker for it every time and god damn did it work here. Seeing even Team Obe cheering for Tetsu was great. Really have fallen in love with the Ogun Union. I hope they don't disappear afterwards.

I appreciate this development, Tetsuma seemed way too strong to be only one level higher than Kai/Inari/Sakura/Shouya. I would have expected the next level to look more like Oshyun than Tetsuma. It makes sense that BJ expected her to lose now. Ironically he didn't actually see her get oneshot...

wonder if we'll ever find out what kind of mission it was

@fitzy64 Thank you for your hard work in picking this back up.

So was Obe's entire "revolution" just a plan to get his shit kicked in by Tetsuma to make the legend of Tetsuma stronger? what a G

@catx3 That's a really good point, and something I didn't realize either.

ohhhh my god you guys are awesome. I appreciate Miracle Attack and EGS for getting this project started, but I would absolutely love to re-read it with Duwang scanlation quality and translations for the early chapters.

Kai is best boy as usual Did Sako really make me like Inari? lmao I've seen people complaining about this arc but I really like it, I like the Ogun gang characters and I'm hugely invested in the other kids getting to fight.

Was wondering when we'd start getting more of the Usogui-style pseudo-science superhumans other than Sakura, guess this is a good time for them to show up

Finally caught up to the current chapter on Batuque...now just waiting for more. Initially I was pretty put off by the start of this manga but I like it more as it goes on, keeping the early rivals in the group and giving them their own fights, and all the small twists and turns with Icchi's...

fucked up that these guys have Jonglyo in their gang

Awesome ending to an awesome manga. Legit one of the best mangas I've ever had the pleasure of reading. Stands on its own when compared to great gambling manga too. Tons of twists and foreshadowing, well-crafted gambles, and an interesting story that only got better as it went along. There were...

It does make a bit of sense - remember that when Kyara is recalling his first time meeting Baku, he says Baku has nothing to offer but his body. He may have simply done the same and lost an earlier gamble, and got saddled with the bad heart.

I've always appreciated the fact that Baku was physically weak. It made him appeal to me more as a protagonist, since he was playing death games in a world of superhumans with a huge handicap. I feel like it tied very closely to the theme of the manga where if you can't enforce your winnings in...

@Veshv Definitely a unique experience that I'll miss. I've read through long-since-ended gamble manga before like Liar Game but I've never been able to share the experience and theorize about what happens next with readers who are all going through it as if its releasing live. The manga being...

As a huge fan of both Oofuna and Nobuko I'm a bit sad that Oofuna's big revival happened off-screen and we didn't really get much more of Nobuko's backstory. I'm happy she finally got a happy ending with Hal though.

Impressive. The idea of Eko focusing Baku's goal and driving his motivation is really well done. In watching Souichi's tape, he basically was inspired to become what Eko believed Souichi could be. His motivation was basically to usurp Souichi's "destiny". I think that's a really interesting...

I actually thought Hal standing might have been reality because Yakou responded to something Hal "said", but I guess it was a shared hallucination. Heartbroken. I loved Souichi, and although I knew Baku wouldn't lose, it's sad to see the finality of the splash page for the final gamble like...

Baku's laughing is a bit unnerving when his best friend had just presumably died. But I guess this is the peak of gambling he was always searching for. Thanks for the batch as always, Team Duwang. Sad that we're nearing the end of our journey. You guys have really made the experience amazing...

@Ominous Agreed. The manga itself has been a crazy ride, but being able to share the experience with people here has been amazing. I can't really think of an experience I've had like this, especially for a manga that's not actually actively coming out and finished years ago. I get the feeling...
