RED: Living On the Edge - Vol. 19 Ch. 151 - What a Wonderful World

What a ride. Thank you very much, Wild West Scans!
 
And thank you very much Kingsonte and Reishiki for translating this. I thoroughly enjoyed the ride, every chapter of it.
@Metal_Storm yeah, the stakes suddenly went really super high with Blue's 100 man army and taking the POTUS himself as a hostage. It was really jarring.
 
FUCK, i really wanted to give this a 10 but this ending really wasn't to my tastes
 
What to say, it's a shame that its official translation in my home country (Italy) was interrupted at volume 10. Would've definitely bought the full series otherwise. Considering there are loads of Italian comics set in the Far West (Tex above all else), this manga may have lost out in sales because the market was already full, but quality-wise it's up there.

Perhaps the ending wasn't too great, but I like the fact that Red still clung on to revenge with his final breath even though Blue was definitely dead. Would've liked to see Ieroh and Annie survive (I know that at least the former lived to have children), but I was moved by the scene where Ieroh's descendant tears up at seeing his ancestor's friend finally free from his cursed fate.
 
Orenji's great grandpa is obviously Ieroh but his great grandma is either Beniyagi (has red hair = Red+Yellow = Orange, still alive, clearly in love with Ieroh and in Japan) or Angie (American, is full American which makes Orenji's claim as 1/8 American feasible). I believe Beniyagi is the most likely candidate since most of the details minus the 1/8 blood matches and Angie is most likely dead. Either way, this was a alright ending I guess.
