Usogui - Vol. 17 Ch. 185 - Consideration

>We did it, its over...

Its over when Madarame "I Have You All Grabbed By The Nuts" Baku says its over.
Im wondering what the worst crime is. Since its obviously not this murder and also obviously not Oshis hit and run.
 
Why do I feel pity to these criminals who tried to cover their crimes using whatever the means?

Maybe it's because madarame is too brutal :'(
 
@rennov i thought i was the only one, damn. Actually im only starting to pity Oshi, not the rest. Not that he doesnt deserve it though.
 
@belkrax

Kaomi asking for 300 million seems to another hint that it's Kaji. He should be more worried about not getting his crime exposed rather than money... unless of course he has no crime in the first place.
 
Baku probably made a "crime" that Kaji commited, but something really minor. So its technically true and can't say it was a loss for Baku by being dishonest

actually what made me believe he is Kaji are these two panels. Notice his face.
This could very well be just a huge ruse though.

Plus that physiognomy bullshit, obviously manipulating the game from way before anyone even got ready to start playing, and generally not giving a shit about being accused, although that could be said of everyone there since they are all so sure their secrets are well hidden.
 
@belkrax

Hm, I initially thought that his build & face looks too big, but it could just be a perspective thing. I 100% agree with the criminal physiognomy BS, when I read that I was like "what is this doing in this manga" haha. It makes a lot of sense that it's simply him manipulating them into accepting the bribe money.

Yeah definitely could still be a ruse, that would be such a massive troll by the author.

About 'winning the game', perhaps another condition could be to simply time out the show? Seeing as it's a TV program, they only have an allotted amount of time they can air. I'm assuming the show is around 30 minutes? That's actually pretty crazy to think about, the guests have barely any time at all to even think of a way out of the game.

Another thing is that I don't think Baku will reveal Oshima's hit 'n run crime. Baku's ultimate objective is probably to target the richer/more powerful people from the L-file, and this whole game seems like it's simply a threat towards those guys. Something like "I'll expose you on TV just like I did with these people..." in order to get them to cave in to a large blackmail. So he'll need Oshima to retain his position as a TV host if he wants to threaten them.
 
Well, Baku isn't in control of whats revealed now. The only saving grace is that all of them just reveal the top halves of the panels. Maybe that would run long enough till the end of the show. Don't forget, on TV theyre playing slides and narration thats eating up time when a panel is revealed
 
@Doomroar I mean im also laughing my ass off, this is Usogui magnum opus regarding fucking with people, but well. Justice is justice.
 
Hey guys, we just re-released chapters 127-132 with improved translations & proofreading. Check them out if you were confused before (old c131 and c132 were particularly confusing to me). Thanks to @ikemen for the suggestion of re-doing them.
 
So yeah, he screwed his ass over basically. Feels bad when you're clever enough to have everything thought out thoroughly, but your overthinking missed one critical error. Not that the guy needs the pity personally, but the act of it all is just what garners pity.
