Tsuyokute New Saga - Vol. 6 Ch. 53

[MangaDex]

 

[AbuHajaar]

But why

 

[ultraleaf]

......What the fuck dude ...i'm at a lose for words

 

[PurpleBomber]

Seran, just... wow. XD

 

[superdoofus]

When things are really dicey, sometimes you just gotta give yourself a hand.

 

[jokerxhisoka]

that tactic didn't make any sense...

 

[RC1138Boss]

That made no sense to me...

 

[Koin]

What?? It's like saying you'll cut off your legs to jump higher! Can someone explain wtf happened here?

 

[ysarro]

He cut off his hand, bound it to the sword to extend his reach, then swung the hand. It's so impractical that it had to work in manga.

 

[cryum]

Seran, what the fuck. You cut off your forearm, tied the sword to the detached hand, and swung with the detached arm instead of the sword handle, just for more reach!?

 

[Darkimpetus]

He's fcking crazy

 

[natural-log]

Couldn't he, like, simply hold the lower part of the sword handle for more reach? Maybe like a shonen-pawaaah-last-nanosecond-stance-change thingy? That would have been somewhat more believable.
And then both demons are genuinely impressed... Uhhhh...

 

[itsjenyoumen]

Nope, don't get the logic of cutting your own hand off.

 

[WhimsiCat]

So basically
Since the demon is so confident about his ability to judge the attack's reach, based on what he see.

Seran messed with that by grabbing his cut off hand so his actual reach is further even though by a visual glance (where the hand is on the handle, the swing motion, etc) it's still the same.

 

[Wolvenworks]

he....whaaaat?

 

[Garrett]

I'll remember this the next time I need to fight.

 

[whosaint]

this chapter...
to shoooooooooooooort.

 

[Authn]

The absolute madman!

 

[Majora]

I swear this chapter should be in a compilation of decisions by shounen protags that make like no fucking sense.

 

[mage_goo]

I guess in a world where healing magic can even regrow lost limb, sacrificing your own hand isn't too bizarre of a strategy.
But just for one slash? Not even fatal? And immediately revealed the secret even?
Absolute madman.
