Can't find this manga

[Kurogwane]

There's this manga about some kind of invincible revived golden skeleton guy who keeps getting jobs and being chased by his rival from the past, anyone got any idea? I tried some searches but got nothing.

Golden Bat, maybe?
I was just watching a youtube video about him.

 

[Kurogwane]

I just watched the same video myself and was reminded of this manga, which I think is just one big giant love letter to Golden Bat. I think his rival/hater from his past was silver or something?

@Kurogwane don't think it is this, but thought I'd mention it, the armor is white and gold on the covers. Is the setting in a medieval fantasy world, modern day, in the future? Anything else you remember about it? Is it relatively recent or old?

@schlo Nah it's not that one, it was an older-ish seeming manga set in the modern day. They found the ancient guy in a tomb and he woke up, laughed and ran off to get jobs and live life? They never speak, just do stuff and laugh.

@Kurogwane
his rival from the past

A reincarnation?

@Kurogwane no luck on my end. Only thing I can find, modern day skeleton, is one where the skeleton opens a detective agency, so it would make sense he has a rival. However the few pics I could find don't match the rest of the description. The other is about a skeleton working at a book store, definitely not the one you describe, but looks mildly interesting.

Are you sure it was a skeleton? A tomb makes me think mummy.

The only golden skelly I know of is from a cultivation manhua. And it's inside the mc, so no jobs and no rival.

Last night I searched through a TON of manga with some tags I thought would get this manga, but I didn't.

I think he was more robot skeleton than actual skeleton, and the only-bone-looking part was his head, the rest of the body was full mecha man?

@Kurogwane this one?

[Kurogwane]

Yes, that's it! I knew it had something like laughing in the title, just didn't search for the correct terms. Also I didn't find it in my searches because I looked for -ecchi, because surely it didn't have that tag, I thought.

@schlo
Holy shit, I remember reading that back in the day when it was still being scanlated.
Wish someone competent would pick it up again.

@ justforthelulz
See what I mean about it being a Golden Bat love letter? it's way too similar to be done on accident.

@Kurogwane
Newfags don't understand how years work, thinking that Golden Bat ripped off of Wahhaman.
