Thread 280396536

It's been a few years since the last one, and with the Homework Arc now at an end it's a good time to refresh on everything that's happened, so we'll be doing a daily dump of the volumes until we're caught up.

Today, we're starting the Invasion Arc with Volume 6, as a massive amount of gates have opened, and it's now all hands on deck!

Chapter 44: Invasion

>>280396777
what a bunch of dorks

>>280397003
Can't wait to see Amo's black trigger in action

You forgot the title.

>>280397323
my bad, lost it setting the post back up

Chapter 45: Invasion: Part 2

>>280397003
So Jin is soloing with a normal trigger set and no fujin?

>>280397086
Just get someone to retrieve Chika and use her as your artillery.

>>280396599
Wish they cited the first Japanese printing.

>>280397480
that rabbits dynamite

>>280397826
Suwabros...

>>280397873
they could have been here in time to save suwa too if not for kazama stubby little legs

Chapter 46: Invasion: Part 3

>>280396777
Uh, ripoff of Frieren's demons much?

>>280398260
all the rabits abilities are from afto triggers so they must have an electric trigger right?

>>280398196
>>280398229
>Shinoda is the only one who knows about defeat in detail
Nice military organization you got there.

Chapter 47: Invasion: Part 4

>>280397476
Every A ranker can do it if they had precognition too

>>280396872
And we never went to school again

>>280398307

>>280398773
it's weird that border didnt focus on chika more when they've already knew that neighbors attack earth to harvest trion.

>>280397575
Without a Trion body, this would actually pretty terrifying.

Chapter 48: Invasion: Part 5

>>280399340
Jin-sama i kneel your future sight is too good

>>280399426
>>280399466

>>280399426
s-scorpion can do that too there were just no scorpion users nearby!

>>280399264
Even with it, it's still kind of spooky. But yeah, without one it would be full blown horror.

>>280396872
Kind of amusing to see Osamu casually ordering his teacher and classmates around.

>>280399713
I know we'll probably never see it but i really want to see Kidos relationship with Yumas father

>>280397692
He was just panicking there.

>>280399679
As much of an ass as Kido is, this makes perfect sense. Yuma being a neighbor is supposed to be a secret. This really should have been the plan from the start.

Small break in the dump, half an hour

>>280399989
Karasuma dates old women for money!

>>280399989
>>280399989
>director Rindo brought him from somewhere. It's a mystery
Ashihara, I kneel

You think the A ranks will use rabbits during the test? There's no bailout.

>>280400484
Too expensive to use many of them i think.

>>280398307
It seems to be basic defense mechanism to prevent enemies from climbing where the trion soldier can't reach them. The Ilgars used something similar on their first appearance.

>>280400862
but neighbors don't seem to use electricity considering what the galopoula guys say

Chapter 49: Invasion: Part 6

>>280400713
It is a permanent removal of an agent, since they don't bail out. Could be used in conjunction with an actual agent to remove a particularly pesky B ranker

Chapter 50: Osamu Mikumo: Part 7

>>280401697
They actually managed to take one down

>>280401697
these guys were talented enough to get bonus points, its nice they were actually able to show that off

>>280396777
this team is so stupidly stacked, this is how the true away mission crew should look like.

>>280396872
>>280396894
>shit hits the fan
>Osamu is assertive and to the point
he was made for this

Damn Kitora was so relevant in the early arcs.

>>280402489
Now she's been replaced by the superior Ktr

>>280399555
man, kitora's so petty

>>280397058
the way launcher pop up sequence is drawn is so cool.

>>280401269
Suwa..

>>280397516
trion bodies are really amazing

>>280402860
HE DID IT, HE DEFEATED 1(ONE) TRION SOLDIER

>>280397637
no hesitation

Chapter 51: Ai Kitora: Part 4

>>280397826
Little confusing here, I couldn't really tell that what happened was that the Rabit opened its chest and stuck Suwa inside.

>>280397980
>Kazama telling him how it is
>Kikuchi just taking a piss
>Utagawa reassuring and telling how he can be usefull in other way
I really love how Ashihara shows the different personalities in action

>>280397948
So many samey-looking characters.

>>280403179
I bet lead bullet would work really well with these soldiers

>>280403098
The same thing he was doing to Koarai but he actually succeeded

>>280398451
Netsuki & Kinuta are civilians.

>>280397346
>there are no women on the right side
You know you probably could make more memorable character designs if you introduced more female fighters. But I guess editorial says boys don't wanna see girls fight, so...

>>280403389
based rabit
FUCK trionlets
do not give them any attention

>>280398520
>cigarettes, beer, meat, mahjong, detective novels.

>>280397713
don't forget about Osamu's trophy wife.

>>280399222
well there is a reason for it.

>Breaks midfight

>>280401269
Best captain

>>280401516
>one rabit costs the same as four ilgars
I'd rather have four ilgars

>>280399771
it was probably pretty good. we can deduce that Yugo was the chad thunder cock and Kido was a wholesome joyous guy supporting the rest of the crew, at least until it all went to shit.

Uh oh

>>280402489
she's relevant every arc.

>>280403723
they don't capture. Rabbits are a net positive if they get a single agent, Ilgars are just a waste.

Chapter 52: Chika Amatori: Part 4

>>280403846
Osamu...

>>280402860
He's improved from fodder to mook

>>280396536 (OP)
>>280396571
>>280396628
I almost missed this.

>>280402489
K*tor* > K*tor* and its not close. Even the old popularity polls were not merciful to the inferior version, current day ones? I can't wait to see the absolute level of the dunk, because its coming.
On that note inferior K*tor* is still very relevant.

>>280403347
That rabits a real jerk

>>280399774
A very rare instance of Osamu thinking first instead of immediately jumping into the lava. won't get many of these, savor it.

>>280399989
>Izumi is a prodigy but Chika is a monster
love it

>>280401143
you know, this guy is kinda reasonable.

>>280404106
She's so cool she better join nasu squad

>>280404355
kill stealing four-eyes

>>280401209
finally a good image to compare the relative size, Rabbits are absolutely huge, or maybe its just a Kazama thing.

>>280401353
Border's first landscape artist

End of Volume!

>>280404473
ashihara sure loves his volume cliffhangers

I forgot how much of a rush this first section of the invasion was, or rather, how big of a deal it was for how early it is in the arc

Can't wait for my girls

>>280402410
>their program is based on our training room
Kido's stunt is looking dumber and dumber with each and every chapter

>>280404650
horrible image

>>280403051
Stealth enter for eggman's trigger

>>280402651
here is the explanation about Raygust durability anons were talking yesterday.

>>280403918
eeeeh I wouldn't be so optimistic, he has improved to armed fodder

>>280402020
So now the Scorpion lets you morph your whole foot into a battle stiletto?

>>280404275
Now just imagine if they'd installed her in a turret in the base. The invasion would already be over.

>>280404843
huh, it really is. foresight completely changes the image, pure kino

>>280402913
You know it would probably help if you remembered to switch out from Raygust to Kogetsu while on the attack.

>>280403363
soon

>>280405156
He doesn't have a kogetsu anon

>>280403425
Probably shouldn't block a full-body charge with a Scorpion.

>>280405156
he doesn't have a kogetsu. he has raygust in shield & blade mode, thruster, asteroid & sheild.

>>280403579
I can't remember if they established grappling hooks before this moment.

>>280404473
They're not gonna job after being hyped as border's strongest right?

>>280403987
https://youtu.be/rlnyjw5LUj0?list=PL6EC7B047181AD013&t=156

>>280405476
nope

>>280405378
She did that with the Ilgar, didn't she?

>>280404349
technically she is already a tamakoma pest and knows enough to justify a mindiwpe so I wonder how it will work out. hell maybe she will somehow drag Nasu into Tamakoma.

>>280404983
After she did it once she rearranged it to look nice, as expected of the PR squad.

>>280405650
>Tamakoma pest
Miwa...

Do you think there's a borderchan in the WT universe?
What would they talk about?

>>280405688
no, I meant it literally, she basically hangs around Tamakoma HQ and consumes snacks while doing nothing of value & not being their agent, maybe occasionally showing them her pussy but that hardly counts as contribution.

>>280405859
So she's just like Yotaro

>>280405732
>Have you seen the news? There's a huge neighbor invasion.

>>280405953
not quite, Yotaro is Tamakoma proper.

>>280405859
yeah. that irks me too.
that slut hanging around a supposed "elite" branch is just wrong.

>>280406549
nah I don't have a problem with her being there. she is amazing. its more that even if she joins Nasu squad she is going to be simping after Chika and acting as a Tamakoma influence agent in Nasu squad. so it can have long lasting consequences.

>>280407035
Good. They should invite all the Tamakoma friends and fanboys over. Kill off that interdepartmental rivalry once and for all.

>>280399189
The visual is pretty similar, wonder how this compares to Chika's meteor on the mall

>>280407498
it will die with Kido. Shinoda is already in

>>280407510
We might get a direct comparison soon.

>>280407498
The only person who's hostile towards them is Miwa, everyone else is pretty chill with Tamakoma

>>280397480
>enough force to send a human body through 7 houses
Border houses, not folded over 1000 times.

>>280396815
>>280396842
I wish S1 got a remake.

>>280399696
>>280402479
That's why Osamu is a better being an agent rather than an operator

>>280397028
>>280397058
I really hope we see more of these Trapper triggers on Phase 2 of the test

>>280403363
Makes sense, Border is akin to a para-military organization, not the kind of thing most females are interested in.

>>280409341
Fuyushima is there so yeah we should finally see switchbox in action.

>>280403363
I'm sure some people there appreciate the ability to dismember women regularly.

>>280397381
Was it ever explained why Ko is so protective of Kuruma?

>>280408345
Considering this is Japan those houses should be pretty sturdy too

>>280409651
He's just protecting his captain. Yuma is the same way with Mikumo.

>>280409706
Yes, but for Ko it's different, other agents even comment how Ko is so protective of him when fighting together

>>280409651
Ko & Taichi will always prioritize saving Kuruma, we don't know why but it is a rule.

>>280405732
Wait few volumes and someone will post the meme image.

>>280410127
No one posted squid8 for v5

anyone have the image of chika using fujin?

>>280410460
I've only got the based one

>>280410504
STOP FUCKING LOOKING AT ME

>>280409892
>>280409987
It's just because Kuruma is a saint

any spoiler anon want to remind me how many volumes the invasion arc lasts?

>>280404514
>Vol 9 cliffhanger
Oh boy...

>>280404592
Thanks for dumping

>>280398451
Considering how young Border is, it's difficult to have more "military type" advisors

I almost didn't see this one without the title.

>ENTER
>Suwa Ultimate Form

>>280401312
>>280401353
Wouldn't Amo be more interested in fighting the humanoid neighbors?
I always thought it was strange he just accepted the task Jin delegated to him

>>280396872
>>280396894
Someone said it in another volume, but it bears repeating.
Osamu is weak, but he's not useless. That's how you make a true underdog work.

>>280412434
He's a loyal dog like he's based on.

>>280397692
Panic. This is their first combat against real dangerous enemies.

>>280411421
dunno about volume but 80 is the dunk chapter, 85 is mom with the stick and 86 is rank wars debut.

>>280397899
Suwa squad shows that having an ace is important.

>>280397149
Am I overthinking it or does border use rank wars to sneakily encourage agents to train how to fight against humanoid neighbors? This page made me think of it because it's most obvious with snipers. On defense duty and even during invasions like this, most of the neighbor forces they'll be fighting will be trion soldiers; bulky, slow, armored things that die to ibis shots and aren't smart enough to necessitate much thought concerning stealth and positioning. But snipers spend most of their time training against small, mobile, people shaped people where egret is king and you have to be careful not to get countersniped or assassinated by a sneaky attacker. Another example is with how scorpion is super broken in rank wars but kind of weak against trion soldiers, especially compared to >>280399426.
It would make sense. Humanoid neighbors are the bigger threat. But it's interesting how little concern seems to be given towards effectiveness at killing trion soldiers. It's just taken for granted that anyone good at killing trigger users will be good enough at killing trion soldiers.

>>280412434
He would cause more damage than the neighbors while looking worse than the neighbors. Absolute last resort.

>>280411421
5 volumes

>>280412821
oh no, you are absolutely spot on

>>280398483
Kinda funny how most of the enemies don't underestimate the protagonist team, even knowing that they are technologically superior.

>>280412842
Yes, it makes sense for HQ to not deploy Amo to fight the humanoids, but my gripe is why he doesn't seem that interested in fighting those "big guns" >>280401391

>>280401053
They don't have electricity to power their homes and shit, but I think they have weaponized electricity from trion.

Quite smart because everyone will see how hardworking they are.

>>280399340
Chika cannon saved the day.

>>280399568
Scorpion is mainly used against humans.
Kogetsu can be used against humans and big weapons.

>>280399340
Is it ever explained how they get the seemingly infinite trion to build and maintain Border HQ?

>>280413414
Eventually, yes

I've got no idea what to comment on. It's all fight fight fight between an army of similar-looking randies and faceless mechabeasts.

>>280399989
What kind of sweatshop is Border that Karasuma has to do so many jobs?

>>280398520
They're almost a /lit/ squad, except for Hisato being a tasteless pleb who reads manga. What a dork.

>>280398520
Suwa should influence Hotori with mahjong and beer.

>>280413030
Amo is a monster fighter, but a resasonable one.

>>280402050
That's a Bamster. Only shitters like Osamu have trouble against that thing using training triggers.
Osamu (post Karasuma training) can easily solo it with B rank triggers.

>>280402410
>>280402484
I love Usami.

>>280413557
Border is poor. They're likely victims of their own success where their ability to keep the neighbor incursions in check makes the government and potential donors think everything is fine and that they don't need any more money.

>>280403098
Yes.
Rabbit grabs Suwa, Rabbit opens its chest, Rabbit puts Suwa inside.

>>280403846
>this whole invasion is Osamu's fault

>>280413030
he fucking wish he could fight them, but unless they come to his no man land he just can't. so he whines but does what he should.

>>280407498
Rivalry is a good thing. Jin and Tachikawa's rivalry is how we got Scorpion.

>>280404355
Yuma stealing Osamu's kill on Ninomiya is karma for this.

>>280413557
Karasuma is just really poor

>>280404431

>>280405551
Yup, Kitora uses it against the first Ilgar.
The battle when she panicked because she thought that a lot of civilians were goingn to die.

>>280413557
Please understand. He supports a family of 10.

>>280413931
Border trains children so they can be soldiers.
Border uses child soldiers.
Border only pays its child soldiers on commission unless they are the true elite.
Border sends child soldiers to foreign lands full of hostiles that can result in a deadly battle.
Border encourages child soldiers to kill other humans.
Is Border an evil organization?

>>280414670
it's a necessary evil

>>280414321
she wishes her sole competitor owns Shinoda and walks him around on a leash.

>>280414670
yes and you don't even know half of it

>>280414670
If it weren’t for the countless technological guardrails and organizational safety measures to prevent the actual harm of the true physical bodies of kids, Border would be an unquestionably evil organization. With those, however, they're just probably an evil organization

>>280414174
I somewhat expect that a mercernary team would pay its top tier soldiers enough money to support their families.
Karasuma's parents work.
Karasuma is an A-rank agent so he gets a fixed salary.
Karasuma is a good fighter so he probably gets a lot from commissions.
Just how shit are Border's fixed salaries and commissions?
Also, how much of a saint is Karasuma to dedicate part of his busy schedule to train Osamu?

>>280414964
Border is less a mercenary team and more a barely subsidized militia. Most of its members join to defend their homes more than anything else.

>>280414964
Karasuma is really good guy, to the point where he actually deserves the good looks buff he has. Everyone in Tamakome is downright amazing probably to compensate for Jin & Rindo. as for payment, here are two examples, highest currently seen award was 1.5 mil yen, then 800k and 300k, this isn't a commission but rather straight up reward for exceptional service; second example would be a stipend of 5k yen per day for x days for anyone who passes the test.

>>280415405
>highest reward is equivalent to a signing bonus with the US army
Karasawa needs to step up his game.

>>280415596
we don't know if its the true highest, just the highest we have seen to date, and yes they are exactly that, bonuses.

>>280414670
No, because the mechanics of trion mandates the use of child soldiers (or at least training soldiers starting from childhood). And Border's bailout system which uses up a TON of trion, making the soldiers weaker than they should be prioritizes the safety of those child soldiers.

>>280396536 (OP)
Everything okay dump anon? I could dump on the days its busy for you.

Also, is it possible for a mod to edit the title?

>>280415892
I just realized the thread wasn't late, I just couldn't find it. Sorry I am a retard.

>>280414964
Like >>280414504 says, Karasuma has a lot of siblings, it's hard for large families to avoid financial drain without crazy good money. Good money isn't enough.

>>280402489
Probably Ashihara biggest regret or mistake.

>>280402690
This panel has helped me immensely in sports, visualization is key, without it you get stuck. Visualize and then flow into the movement. If you can't imagine winning you can't win.

>>280399989
The heat from the rice cooks the megane.

>>280402806
Interesting he uses Yuma as his mental image, weird because he isn't his ideal self.

>>280416138
If for this particular battle.
Yuma defeated a Marmod with a Raygust so Osamu is copying Yuma's move.

>>280403508
Kitora its been a week.

>>280402946
No, he defeated a Marmod. It's noted that a lot B Rank Agents still struggle against Marmods.

>>280403579
Brutal. Dismembering your own leg can't be easy.

>>280415848
>or at least training soldiers starting from childhood
And they only started recruiting in large numbers within the last 5 years. In a decade their actual frontline troops will all be adults and the kids will just be cadets.

>>280414790
Shinoda, the strongest non black trigger user in Border.
Shinoda, the admin member with the most loyal agents.
Shinoda, the handsome guy who has a princess lusting for him.

>>280403625
Kitora soloed a special rabbit.
Even a low trion agent like Kitora can be an ace.

>>280401652
>>280406441
Somehow I never caught on that the cat was originally rescued during the invasion. I thought it was just a random addition to her character later on.

>>280399696
Osamu may be a shitter in combat, he is not a retard. He is also someone who can do his job when it matters.
That's why Hyuse said that Osamu is capable. He can always make a noticeable contribution.

>>280416368
Kitora has double Osamu's trion and she was always predisposed to combat.

>>280416601
Kitora has 4 now, but she started with 3 trion and she was a good fighter.
Also, isn't Kitora the only Ace that has 4 trion?

>>280416680
Who else even has 4 trion besides her and Yosuke?

>>280403347
>programmed to make random attacks on civvies to taunt trigger users
Pretty ruthless design here. As expected of a place that harvests organs from people though.

>>280413557
Karasuma should just sells his body.

>>280403736
Heard you like trion soldiers bro so we put a rabit inside a bamster and rads with gate generators inside the rabit to summon more rabits

>>280416810
I think Koala has 4 trion.

>>280416680
Will Osamu become a 3 one day?

>>280417130
I assume so. It's an easy way to give him a very slight powerup that feels earned and still leaves him weak compared to normal people. He's probably already a 2.5

>>280416939
We'll get there.

>>280416939
first he needs a pimp, there are steps in these things.

>>280399952
If they knew about the sheer scale of Meeden I wonder whether the Neighborhoods would be a lot more commited to a full scale invasion. On one hand there's an absurd amount of people to recruit soldiers and harvest trion from, but on the other hand a longer-term occupation with tithes seems difficult with the way Neighbor worlds orbit and only come into range of Meeden periodically.

>>280417130
Trion gland growth stops when a person is around 20 years old and Mikumo is 15.
Also, Osamu has been in Border for around 5 months so I guess in a few months more Osamu's Trion Value should rise.

>>280414670
>Is Border an evil organization?
There is a lot of resemblance to Shocker and any number of other tokusatsu secret society antagonists.

>>280403231
They might simply be too heavy for lead bullets barring Chika's to matter much. If it takes several lead bullets to properly disable a human trion body then Rabits with several dozens of times the body volume (and possibly a higher density as well if Trion works like that) might not care much about the added weight.
Still useful against one playing defensive and tanking hits, but if it's on the attack you're probably better off aiming for weak points and going for the kill.

>>280397575
>>280397603
>>280397637
>Straight up rips his arms off and Godzuma has to mercy kill him
I don't remember this part jesus christ

>>280417792
I remembered the mercy killing, but not the arm tearing. Koala is probably traumatized.

Is Trion growth proportional to "base" Trion? All that's been said so far is that the younger you start the more it can grow, but depending on the answer Chika either goes from monster to bigger monster or from monster to god.

Which of these characters do I have to follow in particular in the next 20 chapters?

>>280418267
kek

>>280418267
lol

>>280418267
Ignore the trolls, just follow Konami because she is the cutest.

>>280418267
lmao

>>280417307
They would because they will also understand that it's a planet that doesn't require a mother trigger to function. They can migrate most of their population to that new land and keep their original nation as a capital where only the elite live.

>>280418197
I don't know if it's ever said explicitly, but the impression I get is that it's either not proportional or barely so. Chika's not going to wind up with 50 trion or anything.
>>280418267
Mostly the Tamakoma people, both generations. But other agents, particularly the ones you already know from before this arc, do get some attention too.

>>280398084
>Kakizaki squad
Sounds like they're screwed.
Should've just not been lazy and grabbed the DYRL death

>>280418267
can you repeat the question

>>280418197
>Chika is 14
>She still has 6 more years to increase her trion even more

>>280418480
None of the prerequisite Malcolm In The Middle lines were stated before you posted this.
>>>/out/

>>280418461
But the world needs 50 trion Chika.

>>280418197
First, she gotta exhaust all her fuel all the time. I haven't seen her ran out of trion.

>>280418553
Just plug her into the base when off-mission.

>>280414037
Our hero.

>>280418706
Have her sleep connected to a trion sucking device.

>>280396536 (OP)
The last bread was gone too fast!

>>280418461
>just 50
the moment Chika equips a BT she is there and we can make that number go way up. as a reminder when wielding their respective BTs Hyrein has 40, Enedora 41 and Viza 58 despite being fucking hornless

>>280413484
It's kinda first impressions time, since most of these agents you'll see again later besides chano squad who remain irrelevant

>>280418781
Viza is their national hero, wielder of one of their national treasures and the soldier who will never lose.

>>280418828
yeah, Viza is a demigod. what I meant by that was that if we slap some horns on Chika and get her a BT with high enough trion boost, 100 should be possible.

>>280409142
It would probably be fine with some extra editing to cut out all of Toei's time stretching nonsense.

>>280418781
Yeah, I mean naturally. If she gets ahold of a black trigger she'll become a WMD.

>>280418931
Gotta leave the Yosuke scream, though.

>>280418882
If anyone needs horns, it would be Osamu. Maybe he's too old for it though.

>>280418756
>ywn suck Chika's trion
Why live?

>>280417404
I keep forgeting that osamu isnt actually 25

>>280397637
Quick thinking.

>>280419185
indeed, he is 28

>>280398330
Did he read that one?

>>280398414
He did read that one.

>>280398520
>mahjong
AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>280419448
If Suwa introduces it to the girls, they will grow a lot. Trust me.

>>280419552
kek, with that incentive Konami would play it religiously at least for a month and get a fancy set for it, while K*tor* would just play on the phone

>>280399679
I have to agree with scarman this time.

>>280419627
I can actually imagine Karasuma messing her with this.
Konami, did you know that the manga "Saki" has a realistic take about breast growth?

>>280399989
>several years if it's certain
That's bullshit. How is he keeping up with all the information?

>>280418267
Everyone.

>>280419773
mechanics of Jin's foresight are vision related, he has glasses for a reason.

Should we do a Briefing File day? The book has the loadout triggers for a bunch of agents that will show down the line. Half the fun is trying to guess who is the madman thats using double meteor as a handgun or the solo operator with double raygust.

>>280401178
Another guy using the shield trigger, looks like a fun guy.

>>280419874
And he is strong unlike our dear shitter.

>>280401269
How does it feel being condensed into a cube? Is he still awake in there?

>>280419832
I don't remember that. Is that in one of the Q&As? I probably shouldn't have skipped reading so many of them.

>>280419874
take note on what is written in his name box. lets just say that despite both of them being b-ranks Ko is a little bit better with the shield than Osamu.

>>280401178
shouldn't the #4 attacker be higher than b rank

>>280401624
Who's going to turn into one in the future? And will that person's trion reserve affect the black trigger? Imagine glasses turning into one and only adding garbage amount of trion.

>>280419951
yup, he sees the future all the time with his own eyes playing it in front of him like a damn 3D movie, however when he puts on glasses - which are just shades, the color of reality changes so he can differentiate better. thus when Jin is serious glasses are always on.

>>280401726
The rabbits' grin really make them look ominous.

>>280419999
a-ranks isn't a solo rank, you need a team to hold it.

>>280420035
Reiji will become Chika's BT:

>>280420035
for some reason this posts sounds flat and pissed off

>>280420130
??

>>280420170
you will get it in about 15 volumes

>>280420035
Probably Yuma, he is dying already anyways. It will serve as a nice memento for megane to remember him.

>>280419864
but when would it fit in, after rank wars?

>>280402860
This is quite impressive, no? Kitora wasn't sure she could fight this thing cleanly. Though I have no doubt she improved since then.

>>280420035
Kageura.
He probably will get in the away mission and become BT when they got cornered or trapped.

>>280420282
>Kitora wasn't sure she could fight this thing cleanly
She wasn't sure she would be able to do it with trainee's trigger, in one clean stroke.

>>280420035
>And will that person's trion reserve affect the black trigger?
Yes, also it's possible to fail at producing a black trigger. Trion levels affect this chance so someone with low trion like Osamu would likely just die for nothing.

>>280420282
>Kitora wasn't sure she could kill this thing in one blow with a training trigger
ftfy
killing one marmod 1 on 1 isn't very impressive but its a clear passing grade for his rank.

>>280403695
So that's their actual target.

>>280420243
I've thought about this before and it makes a certain amount of melodramatic sense. Yuma originally not understanding self-sacrifice would bring it full circle for him to sacrifice himself to save Osamu once all of Osamu's death flags catch up with him. I don't particularly like the idea of this future though, and I hope we can avoid it.

>>280404238
Oh fuck, now they know about Chika's monstrous trion pool.

>>280420035
Jin. And he's already seen it.

>>280404592
Thanks anon.

>>280404238
This is a training trigger by the way.

>>280419993
tbf ko is also better with the shield than everyone else, his only competitions are the raygust engineer and double raygust guy

>>280419993
A little?

>>280420555
Reiji is better, double raygust creature is better, Raizo should be better but he slacked off. Yeah, not that many people.

>>280420324
>>280420373
Oh, cool. Forgot about the training trigger part.

>>280414037
It's more Border's fault for allowing C-ranks to walk around with their triggers unsupervised.

>>280419914
>>280419993
No shit with that rank.

>>280419999
That just means they are certified fightfags or autismos. It's just how the raw number associated with a weapon is vs others of similar weapon. 4000 is good enough for B rank. 8000 is considered master rank. More than that is just pride/dilligence/hotbloodedness of the character.

>>280420825
yeah except rank 4 in this case means the guys in front of him are Tachikawa, Kazama and Spoiler and that is it, because its not a weapon rank, its a position rank. Ko is rank 4 attacker.

>>280404592
The author introduced a lot of characters this volume. Are they going to disappear into the background when Glasses' team is going into the Neighborhood or do I need a cheat sheet to remember every single one? I'm trash at remembering names.

>>280420915
I'm sorry, actually I'm sorry twice.
but don't worry there is always a full breakdown of all characters on the first few pages of the volume, so you don't need to make anything.

>>280420915
You need to remember all of them, but they come frequently enough to remember them naturally.
Even if you miss their names, they have their own abilities, quirks and face so you will know who they are.

>>280397451
Stupid Okudera.
You should never underestimate a new enemy.
If its actually weak, then good. If it's strong, then you would be a bit safer since you were prepared.

>>280420915
>Are they going to disappear into the background
For the most part, no. But they aren't all equally important and the ones who are important stick around enough to be memorable.
I'm also pretty bad with names, but I've never needed a cheat sheet. It's enough to just be able recognize "oh yeah, that's the guy that did X" when you see them.

>>280420915
It'll help to remember them as squads more than individual characters, as they'll show back up in groups more often than individuals

Rewatched S3 and Nono's nonos made me unbearably horny.

>>280421291
that is a very logical reaction, i-cups are no joke

>>280421353
Too full to be contained by hands, with a gravity-defying firmness that seemed almost unreal.
WT's girls are too good.
I want to fuck Nasu to death.

>>280421467
that would be very easy, now fucking her without accidentally flat-lining her is the real challenge.

>>280419999
Rank battles are a team effort, no matter how good you are if your squad sucks

>>280421467
It won't be that hard, we can see her sick in her bed and she is also so sickly that she can't join the away mission test. She will probably die from 1 or 2 intense baby making exercise.

>>280421591
Please don't bully Taichi. He means well.

>>280421703
>t.Kuruma
this is why you are still b-rank

>>280421591
>team effort
I forgot, Urushima is alone, right? His wife doesn't count. I seriously thought she's just there as a formality.

>>280421703
If Osamu should be an operator, Taichi should be an engineer.
The sad thing about Taichi is that he has more combat talent than Osamu since he has better reflexes, bettter trion and better intelligence, but he is not capable to make use of any of that.
In other words, Osamu is weaker, slower, trioinlet and dumber but he can still contribute to the team and make better strategies than Taichi.

>>280421772
Yeah but he's still barely on mid b-rank, also imagine doing worse than a guy who fights solo, i'd just disband my squad if i was lower than that guy

>>280421818
I wonder how good Urashima is. Rika (that was her name, right?) is bad at parallel processing, a skill that I think is essential for an operator so I doubt that she is very helpful in rank wars.

>>280421772
Urushima is solo but he is b-rank, also mother goose is helping by making his reputation worse and sending him to ks other squad's kills.
In A rank Fuyushima is the team with least members, with just two combatants and Risa Maki as their operator they are somehow holding rank fucking 2.

>>280421818
Honestly, I want to see his Rank Wars.
I don't think he can beat upper B-rank squads alone, but he might put up a good fight or avoid all the fights like Azuma.

>>280420963
>>280420977
>>280421043
>>280421225
Cool, I'll just read along then.

>>280421818
It's worse when you consider his gf sucks at being an operator so he is literally on his own

>>280421291
>>280421467
For me, it's Kumagai.

>>280421939
Don't forget he is public enemy number one and every squad wants his head. So in every fight all other teams are on high alert.

>>280421931
>Fuyushima
That guy's probably worth a squad on his own.

>>280421939
He started the season on rank #9 which is pretty impresive considering the season previous had both the Ninomiya and Kageura squad just dominating b-rank, also going by his trigger loadout he might focus on doing stealthy kills, and going into hiding.

>>280421931
Touma is the best sniper in the entire organization.
Maki is a chess master.
Fuyushima himself is a trapper.
I can imagine the bullshit they can do with those skills combined.
Battle starts, Touma headshots a poor soul and runs away.
Maki guides the team so Fuyushima plants the traps in the most annoying places.
Touma running away after his position was disocvered at the start leds everyone in the traps following Maki's direction.
Touma also triggers traps with his stupid aim.
That's the kinda bullshit strategy I can imagine.

>>280422019
Nasu squad is top tier.

>>280422184
Yuma should probably learn from him.

>>280422237
Don't forget teleport traps and Toma just warping from building to building, god fighting the Fuyushima squad sounds miserable

>>280422304
Yuma learns from everyone. Whether they like it or not.

>>280421783
I think it'd be neat if border developed a position similar to Yomi's and Taichi became the first one.

>>280422307
Beingn the number 2 squad with only two fighters sounds reasonable now..

>>280421783
>make better strategies than Taichi
taichi's one single strategy that he came up was pretty good, they were just happened to fight the one guy that hard counter it

Hatesex with Kitora.

>>280423028
no

>>280423055
Angry hatesex with Kitora.

>>280423055
Loving sex with Kitora.

>>280423091
>>280423097
no, really no, somehow she has negative sex appeal. I'd rather rape Maki with a shotgun up her ass.

>>280423028
Going around the neighborhood with Kitora.

>>280423020
They knew that they have to fight against Kage. Sure, it was unlucky that he was the one they found, but not having a strategy for the worst case scenario when they can choose the battlefield and knew that Kage was in the roulette was a bad strategy. Although I blame Kuruma more than Taichi. Kuruma is their captain so he should have told him to make a backup plan, Taichi is smart (probably one of the smartest in between the B-ranks) so he can figure something out if he is given proper instructions.

>>280423188
they did have a plan to deal with kage alone with murakami formation, honestly that fight was on how fast zoe is at thinking on his feet, from luring them into close space to destroying the light

>>280423675
Zoe is way underrated. Even by the A ranks, it seems, based on their evaluations.
