If he was listening to some soothing stuff that kept him from becoming a murderous maniac then why would he take them off. Doesn't make any sense. Of course it'd be expected from him to take off all the gadgets before the match. It's in the rules, right? So I hope it's not what everybody's thinking.
Yeah, those who have forgotten read the 12th chapter of Kengan Ashura. You'll remember this crazy mofo.
P.S. also a reminder for the readers of Danberu Nan Kiro Moteru?
@Catsuey thanks, I guess. But still nothing. Can you tell me the chapter I should look at to refresh my memory?
P.S. huh... wait a minute. I think I'm starting to remember.
