I'm really looking forward to the next round with the fighters wounded and whatnot. It's going to make it really interesting if the mangaka keeps his word about there being no protagonist.

I like him and Iβm fine with it too, but I thought that with the Honda Musashi match, that Nobunaga wants the loser dead no matter what, either that or I guess maybe he was just mad at the one retainer guy for running in to Honda after he lost to Musashi.
Thatβs just how it read to me, that he wanted the winner of this to be the only one left alive.

The villain is obviously the fox guy who probably has a super duper martial art organization that will interrupt and set up a coup d'etat midway through the tournament. Like in the author's other works.

Probably originally thought an all death tournament was cool before he realized that would mean by the end of the series the entire cast would be down to two characters and people who were big fans of a loser might just drop it.
Fully expect the survival rate to go up going into round 2(after 4000 years man gets shredded into ribbons). Kotaro will probably live at this rate. Choko will probably die to show how twisted Yagyu is. I likewise can't see Ittosai not confirming his kills, but the loser between Hanzo and Yasuke might live because both of them are fairly chill.

I don't know why the typesetting is so fucking atrocious for the official release. Even putting aside the difference in the translation itself/dialogue/ect, it looks like someone using MS Paint and then resizing the text after or something.

Nope, it has a simultaneous official release now which is this(another comikey style pay by chapter one), that's why we get a translation so fast now, we didn't even get shitty speedscans before, just the fan team a couple weeks after raws usually.
Unfortunately it's also shit. Even besides the scan/typesetting quality, the dialogue feels a lot more stilted, and they completely ignore things like Kotaro speaking in third person.

If anything it makes things a bit more unpredicrable. You know that Musashi isn't gonna die before his duel with the other faggot, so at least there's a one in a thousand possibility that he mighy lose his next round instead of zero.

The same effect could have been achieved if the killing rule was never established in the first place, which is what I was trying to get at. I don't have an issue with unpredictability or predictability, if the match-ups are interesting or narratively engaging it's honestly not a problem in my eyes.

If he survives two chapters I'll be genuinely shocked.
