>>281206587 (OP)
Since I mentioned it in the other thread, I'll ask again here
How physically powerful is Momo now without her powers? She gotta be at least peak fitness having gone through everything Okarun has and more

>>281206857
She's never had to do the physical shit Okarun did in fights. She was literally carried by him 90% of the time. She's probably not that much stronger than at the start since she was already tough for a teenage girl.

>>281206587 (OP)

Will dump the character bios and stats, hopefully someone can translate please.

>>281206884
The not!Jumanji arc literally forced her to do things physically or else it would only make things harder for her, and she mostly made it out fine. Also she was able to hold on and not lose anyone these last couple arcs despite being fun-sized.
That has to count for something

Oh...

>>281207017

>>281206789
Can someone explain to me whether this is a weird translation or not? I understand it's not bad English, but without context I don't really understand why Seiko/TG/Okarun etc just start calling him genius without any real context. Does it make more sense in Japanese? Is there an implication to genius that's lost in the translation? Because I know there was a subreddit thread where people were kind of grasping at straws trying to figure out in what way he's a genius

If the idea is that he's a genius because he can quickly assimilate his spiritual power, I guess I get it. But I guess I don't understand how he's differentiated from Okarun/Kinta/Aira who all learned how to master their own techniques within like a day or even within a single battle...

>>281207039

>>281206587 (OP)
He's a zesty nigga with those cocktease hoop earrings. Probably looking to be buck broken desu

>>281206964
Didn't Zuma literally carry her through most of those tests?

>Also she was able to hold on and not lose anyone these last couple arcs despite being fun-sized.

Again, I think Zuma literally held her in his hand while she used her powers to control the worm.

>>281207105

>>281207046
>he can quickly assimilate his spiritual power
yes they literally said the reason in the manga/anime

>>281206982
>>281207017
>>281207062
>>281207105
Just have the core 4 for now, they’re the only ones I could find

>>281207140
I guess I just don't understand why they're using the word "genius" for being able to be spiritually adept? It seems like an inappropriate translation if that's the entire reasoning

If the translation is correct, I guess then it just seems like Tatsu was desperate to not let readers call Jiji stupid

>>281207109
Zuma was a major factor in helping her out, but its disingenuous to say none of her own physical strength helped her in these situations.

>>281207215
I think it's more than fair to say that there hasn't been an arc or battle where her physical strength carried her the majority of the way through to success...

>>281206957
>reputation of being the cutest
>foot techniques executed with beautiful legs
So true!

>>281207240
That's mostly because in a serious life or death battle, her psychic powers can get the job done better than what she can do physically, so it's never been a focus, nor do I think it ever really will.

>>281207105
>Jordan 12s

>>281207260
so you're saying she gives crazy footjobs?

>>281206964
She was fine, but it wasn't the same continuous application of the body that made Okarun ultra fit. She just hasn't spent the same amount of time working on her body the way Okarun inadvertently has.

>>281207456
Feetbros can't stop winning

Momo on the front page!

>>281207727
:D

>>281207563
Never said it was, but she's gotta at least be more fit than she was before, the same way Okarun was. Fighting monsters has gotta keep you fit.

>>281207132
>Jiji has been possessed by the Evil Eye. The Montain Monster’s power is so great that even Okarun, who has undergone extensive training is no match for him. At one point his body is completely taken over, but by training to refine his ki, he is able to control it.
Jiji the strongest officially confirmed? Tatsu most hated character btw

>>281207866
I wonder if Tatsu's editor pushed this change from "don't include Jiji for most of the series" to "fully deepthroating Jiji and giving him canon top tier strength"

>>281207866
>is no match for him
*evenly matched

>>281207967
Jiji needs it. Without being the strongest what does the character have a claim to?

Momo has Okarun
Okarun has Momo
Aira has the leader role
Jiji has the prodigy role

>>281208151

Idk man. At this point he has one of the longest and most intricate backgrounds/yokai backstory. He's also beloved by Seiko, he's technically "Okarun's best friend", he has the ki wave and has destroyed multiple kur and a giant hurricane. Now he's in control of evil eye and actively in the mix to confess to Momo (overcoming his inability to be serious, blushing when teased by Zuma).

What more does this fucker need for Jiji fans to be satisfied?

>>281208308
The graph shows EE is stronger, only thing Okarun has an advantage in is speed

>>281208431
>Google translate

>>281208460
Yes, and Okarun knocked Evil Eye out in his arc.

>>281206857
Right now she has a small problem.

>>281207967
I don't think there's been any special change of direction now. JiJi is getting the equivalent of what Aira got in the fight against the other teacher.

>>281208446
>At this point he has one of the longest and most intricate backgrounds/yokai backstory
Rin, Zuma, Okarun and Aira all have more intricate Yokai backstories than Jiji. The only character that Jiji is ahead of in that department is Hase.
>He's also beloved by Seiko
Because he’s a prodigy, that’s solely related to him having the strongest potential.
>he's technically "Okarun's best friend", he has the ki wave and has destroyed multiple kur
fair point
>and a giant hurricane.
needed help from Zuma, Momo, Kito Worm
>Now he's in control of evil eye
Still debatable, new form looks incomplete
>in the mix to confess to Momo
We know he’s getting rejected so this an L for him

The prodigy shtick is best thing the character has to hang his head on

>>281208603
>Yes, and Okarun knocked Evil Eye out in his arc.
It was stated by TG that EE wasn’t close to full strength at that point, plus the literal graph shows the stats that EE >>> Okarun

>>281208768
All Out Okarun > EE > Okarun

>>281208698
https://youtu.be/g-4-gLlF0uw?si=zoF5MFRfNX0NrSew

>>281208768
>graph shows the stats
Yeah, and Okarun still won the fight, which is why it's considered evenly matched.
Combats are more than just stats.

>>281208784
EE tanked All Out Okarun and then Okarun had to deceive him to make the deal to play once a week

>>281208857
It doesn't matter if he tanked it, he was totally helpless against him. Like he physically could not mount any amount of resistance against Okarun going all out.

>>281208841
>Yeah, and Okarun still won the fight
EE was nerfed by the Worm poison and EE is back up fighting everyone while Okarun couldn’t transform anymore. Without plot armor EE wakes up and kills Okarun there. Okarun himself didn’t consider that a win in his statement to Momo before the hug.
2nd Fight EE just tanked everything and didn’t even try, Okarun again couldn’t transform anymore and had to make a deal with EE.

>>281208942
>EE was nerfed by the Worm poison
So was Okarun
>EE is back up fighting everyone while Okarun couldn’t transform anymore
Okarun got up before him.
>Without plot armor
Yeah no you're too stupid to have this conversation.

Evil Eye lost, get over it

>jiji gets focus and a new form
>jijitards STILL seethe
What will it take to calm their tantrums?

>>281208997
When you accept that he’s stronger than Okarun because the databook literally says it

>>281209067
On the same page it says they're evenly matched. Do we believe the databook or not? Pick your poison.

>>281208718
>Rin, Zuma, Okarun and Aira all have more intricate Yokai backstories than Jiji.
Aira and Zuma's backstories are very similar tales of familial sacrifice and grief. Rin's backstory as well is basically "my best friend who I thought I lost always loved me". Jiji's backstory is literally a rural serial killer mystery that brought us an entire species of enemy. The entire arc is named just for his yokai.

>Because he’s a prodigy, that’s solely related to him having the strongest potential.
Which Tatsu is now cashing in to put Jiji squarely above everyone else in the cast as far as power. Despite doing very little on page to convince us he's been trying to become more powerful/reliable.

>needed help from Zuma, Momo, Kito Worm

It's more galling to me that Tatsu seemed to give us an enemy of that magnitude just to basically prove to the reader that Jiji is the only member of the cast who *could* conceivably kill it.

>We know he’s getting rejected so this an L for him
Regardless of whether he gets a blunt and insensitive rejection or it's some kind of empty "You're really special but my heart belongs to someone else", it will still be the culmination of a series long love triangle that never felt interesting or engaging in its drams.


Jiji has always had some foot in the story even when he was technically invisible and now Tatsu is trotting him out like a show horse. It's just bizarre and a little fatiguing and I hope that jiji fans will just admit that their joke character has basically supplanted Momo and Okarun

>>281209089
Who’s stronger in more attributes to tell us which is stronger? The graphs don’t look even to me.
>>281207039
>>281207132

>>281207594
Momo revived my stirrup sock fetish.

>>281209136
Okarun's speed vastly outclasses EE's. That makes Okarun able to defeat him. Now ask google what 互角 means. Go on, you fucking pussy.

>>281209136
Actually, don't bother responding because I know you're not going to address what 互角 means and I'll have to keep asking you over and over as you fail to acknowledge it, proving you know I'm right but you won't admit it.

Based driveby anon

>>281207213
The word they use in Japanese is "tensai" (天才), and I have never seen it translated as something other than "genius", "prodigy", or "gifted". The meaning is close enough that Seiko repeatedly calling him a tensai in Japanese as he acts like a spastic loon and shameless flatterer during his introduction has the same incongruous humor that is intended in English.

>>281207213
The kanji for tensai (genius) is 天才. Broken down, it's heaven (天) and talent (才), so it's like a divine talent, i.e. some special ability you're born with. The Japanese apply it to intelligence the way we use the word genius, but it's more versatile in that it can be used for things that aren't intellectual. You can be a genius at swimming or cooking, for example.

>>281207080
Aira stats are surprisingly better than i thought, I’m afraid Tatsu is going to hoe Zuma and make his look worse than this

>Jiji hatemob already out the same day he gets a glimmer of shine

>has basically supplanted Momo and Okarun
In terms of what? Jiji had 1 decent chapter against the Typhoon and 2 good chapters against Red Baron (who many are acting like is a fodder villain and would rather switch to any other pov in the story). 3 total chapters of Jiji finally getting some spotlight after literally nothing for YEARS. This is the facts. It’s not close to supplanting Momo and Okarun, don’t be dramatic.

>>281209592
Don't bother, he's just another delusional jijitard who believes his side character self-insert is the real protagonist of the story

>>281206587 (OP)
Needed more set up.
The way things started seemed fine, they have to work together to switch places and beat the foe, but I'm not a fan of him achieving this form so early with seemingly no set up. Maybe next chapter will placate me, but I'm still not a fan.

>>281209685
It tells me that the ending is closer than we think with Tatsu rushing an important subplot like this out of nowhere. I think the series ends before 300 chapters.

>>281209659
Not even Airafags act this way when Aira gets nice chapters lmao Jijikeks are so fucking weird

>>281209773
The persecution complex is unreal.

>>281209773
Well Airafags will tell you that she gets better treatment than Jiji so that’s probably why.

I skimmed the other thread and looked around. People were so excited about this chapter that I haven't seen anyone mention that Jiji may be getting setup to get EE taken away somehow. If EE willing to playball now, unless we are nearing endgame. I feel like JIJI will be entirely too powerful and trivializes an already clown fiesta of villains. Like for example, why is Okarun here with a club when EE just booted motherfuckers to the moon. Jiji is a prodigy who chucks Kamehameha waves, and been establish he has been training with Granny the whole time. I think Jiji is the one kid in the group CSG can take powers from temporary and he wouldn't be totally useless in battle. None of other kids have a plan B, hell, Aira dies without her powers.

>>281208431
互角 means evenly matched in ability.

>>281207046
>Is there an implication to genius that's lost in the translation?
Japan uses genius in a way that westerners use "gifted" or "a natural" or even just "a star"
Meaning they are better at the thing than others with similar experience.
Not that they have a special intellect that works on a higher level.

>>281210179
Jiji has only had control of EE for 1 page so far. He’s spent 99.9% of the series relying on his plan B (Chi slop) it’s about time that he got to use his plan A. It would be garbage writing if he immediately lost EE and went back to square 1.

Both Okarun and Evil Eye seem more powerful in general if we just look at the vectors

>>281210426

> I feel like JIJI will be entirely too powerful and trivializes an already clown fiesta of villains.
Anon, up until they started switching out, the Baron was utterly fucking trouncing them. And even then, their advantage only lasted until the Baron closed the distance and started unleashing so many rapidfire blows that if EE tried to drop out and switch even once, Jiji would have instantly died. Jiji and EE working together absolutely won't trivialize shit, because CSG still overwhelmingly has the advantage over them in how powerful his proxies are and the fact absolutely nobody besides factions already hostile to them and Turbo Granny who is AWOL even realize he's pulling all the strings.

In that context, it's meant to highlight that seiko loves being complimented, and she would always reply with a ridiculously large portion of food.

In the work, it's a running gag of the ayase family. Seiko loves to call people who compliment her over the smallest thing a genius while handing the a gratuitous amount of gift, meanwhile momo upon being called a genius will always reply 'I know'.

Maybe in the mind of a avarege powerscale fan she was treated poorly, but in the mind of the author she was the leader of the operation and responsible for lighting the flame of the pianist girl.

>>281211032
Haven't seen it mentioned in the old threads, but the reason why jiji picked evil gun as his special move name is because of a pun. 邪眼 and 邪銃 (銃 じゅう is pronounced in English - gun)

Jiji isn't fighting CSG right now. It's just some smoke yokai (or smokai if you like).

Nah, dad's a race traitor.

>>281206587 (OP)
Tatsu felt confident enough to start wanking to the infinite his favorite character again after the colossal fumble that was the ntr bait and restarting the pointless love triangle
The story still has huge problems and the anime can keep the interest only for so long

>>281213520
The stats are obviously secret to not spoil the story.

>>281212831
I think a big issue is that, unlike most of the other characters, Jiji almost never face any consequence for his stupid decisions or even random events. There's always someone covering his ass and it's getting annoying
I get that the author has trouble using him, but fuck, is love rival and powerhouse the only things he can think of for him?

>>281211145
Imagine sacrificing planets just to get half the power of a police man.

>>281213597
>face consequences
he's literally the one that has been fucked up by his Yokai the most until now, Okarun helped him but he still suffered

The idea that Okarun and Jiji are close friends just off screen is so fucking stupid. Have some balls and draw them playing soccer or smash brothers Tatsu, you giant coward.

>>281213679
Yeah and everyone but him shouldered the consequences of his stupid decisions. Fuck, he was even instantly forgiven by Momo despite ruining her relationship with her grandma for a while
Jiji writing is very bad compared to all the other characters: he has little going on for him besides drama nobody likes and barely developed

OkaJiji has the channel's blessings too. But really, they had the most wholesome dynamic, they didn't get a significant moment since 2022, and not even ONE hug. I wanna see a lot more about them but unfortunately (and understandably) OkaMomo has to steal the show, just look at the anime: most of this season is for Jiji and he doesn't even get one special shot all for himself. I hope fujos makes themselves heard through the sales

>>281214019
I don't like how apathetic he looks...hopefully he's goofy with a resting bitch face. Both Jiji and EE acted cute during this short battle

>>281213801
I don't think there's a character they wouldnt help, they did so with Aira and Kouki all the same.

>>281207046
what's not to get? the joke is that everyone thought she called him a genious only because he was complementing her, but the reality is he has enough potential to be possesed by a spirit as powerful as the evil eye and still sruvive so he is clearly exceptional. It's a very simple joke/twist, I don't get your confusion.

>>281214439
I'm not a fujo. I just want Tatsu to take some fucking responsibility for the promises he makes to the audience regarding his characters. You tell us that Jiji is Okarun's first guy friend and in the fanbook you claim they play soccer all the time and smash and that them plus Kinta is some cute little squad?

Then show us all of that you little Japanese coward. Not just little snippets. Whole chapters devoted to the characters being relatable and cute and fun. This isn't EVA. These kids aren't being borderline tortured by shadow governments. Give them some fucking time to be kids.

>>281206587 (OP)
Jiji is so cool

>>281208698
I'm guessing using the mallet will go wrong and she'll have a big problem instead.

>>281214725
>not a fujo
I am male and I agree, plus they're really cute together, but as said, they prefer to push the romance the most since that's what sells

Well?

>>281214957

>>281213777
>>281214439
>>281214725
I think about the missed potential lost from the "Evil Eye Thursdays" Okarun set up back when he still had TurboGran's powers but we never get to see:
>Fight of the Day
>EE satisfied, sleeps
>Jiji snaps back - "oh, hey, homie, how's the little guy? You guys enjoyed playing together? :D"

If Tatsu's hands are too tied, I'm hoping Abel and his Science Saru team will do the padding. WIT did good for Spy x Family fleshing out Yor further in the anime - Anya's kill throws got a lot more satisfying and made Yor slightly more useful outside her missions.

>>281206587 (OP)
He's cool and I like it.
I'm not a woman or a fag so I didn't care much about Jiji's specific kind of goofyness, but somehow mixing some badass in makes it cool for me as well.

>>281213777
>>281214439
>>281214725
I think about the potential we had from the "Evil Eye Thursdays" Okarun wanted set up back when he still had TurboGran's powers:
>Fight of the Day
>EE satisfied, sleeps
>Jiji snaps back - "oh, hey, homie, how's the little guy? You guys enjoyed playing together? :D"
...but then TurboGran just vamooshed and we never get to see at all.

If Tatsu's hands are too tied, I'm just hoping Abel and his Science Saru team are willing to do the padding on this, them being so open to expanding the source material so much more. WIT did good for Spy x Family fleshing out Yor in the anime making her more useful outside than just implied originally (Anya's kill throws got a lot more satisfying too).

>>281215158

>>281215463
Disagree.

>>281214950
>romance is the only selling point
Funny thing is Ken never thought much of Momo at first, he was just happy someone listened and took interest in what he likes seriously - the romance just naturally unlocked and developed from there as a big bonus.

I'd argue DDD is no longer just about romance anymore, but how much Ken saved himself when all kinds of company like her, Jiji, Vamola etc sincerely reached out to him (dude was implied to have depression because he was so bullied). That's why the bromance is celebrated as equally much as the romance.

Our Hero hates that live-action shit

>>281215435
Dandadan is one serious that could drastically use some OVAs. Extra content just showing the gang hanging out would be great. The volume extras are little drippings of this but we could do with much more.

>>281216029
Based GODta

>>281216058

>>281216074
>low flexibility on Vamola
What does this imply, /a/?

>>281216058
I understand they did it because it's kind of cute and doesn't feed into the power scale arguments, but I do kind of wish they had just standardized all the quadrants. Like, so we had a better understanding of what the underlying forces in the DDD universe is.

Like, "Physical, Psychic Potential, Intelligence, Spiritual Potential, Technological Proficiency"... Then we could at least get an idea for what basic tenants of the universe do all the species have to abide by. Seeing stuff like "Depression" vs "Potential" vs "Purity" vs "Barrier" is just kind of disappointing.

Does someone have archive link for the previous chapter dump?

How do you think Ken will recover Turbo Granny's power?
-Synthesizes it with his own spiritual energy
-She goes back to being a housecat for fluffy pillow comforts
-they merge like Jiji/Evil Eye
-Turbo Granny passes on and bequeaths it to him
-St. Germain fuckery
-???
Because he's too much a face of the franchise to remain in the noble position of Kinta's number 2.

>>281210405
damn so cute, Zuma is so lucky

>>281217021
Maybe he doesn't and becomes an oni from training with the club.

>>281210477
My wife Rin is so beautiful

>>281215158
The other characters’ reactions is what makes it funny to me.

>>281211595
Jump Plus series doesn't do magazine breaks.

>>281217122
He'll definitely become an oni with the club. With how much Tatsu loves baseball apparently, it's gonna end up with Okarun becoming basically a more powerful version of Seiko when she uses her metal baseball bat. I think however, TG will see that the kids aren't enough to stop CSG without her powers and will bequeath them back to Okarun to become some hyper fast oni who is graceful with the club.

That way they also split the difference and let Jiji still have the most raw power, Momo have the most raw potential, Aira be the most tactically gifted but Okarun could be the most offensively explosive and dangerous.

If he is white (which makes sense for CSG) then the glasses make it so people don't find it weird as well.

Cause a 6ft tall white guy teaching something not English would definitely have all the students talking, granted it's strange that the gang don't go "Uh who is this gaijin" so maybe even they see his apperance as different because I can't believe they saw a pink haired forefinger and all said he was unrelated to their pink haired teacher.

>>281219558
You don't deserve them! You know why.

>>281219281
Does that make Turbo Granny a mountain yokai?

>>281211130
The leader is named Hastur, the dogu is named Octopus Carpaccio, and the other thing is named Takomeshi ("octopus rice") and is based on a lesser-known type of dogu called the Masked Goddess.

>>281219749
I wonder, she (used to) move around as well.

>>281219901
That just reminded me of when TG was talking about EEs being mountain yokais, and the mountain yokais being revered as gods. I thought she was inferring to herself as well.

>>281211145
Takowasa ("octopus wasabi"), Sudako ("vinegared octopus"; his suit is a haniwa figure), and Imotako ("potato octopus"; based on the gassho dogu).
Takowasa notably doesn't seem to be based on a dogu.

>>281219281
>>281219749
Reminds me of this film: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ballad_of_Narayama_(1983_film)

>Both films explore the legendary practice of ubasute, in which elderly people were carried to a mountain and abandoned to die

>>281211163
Jet Booster/Xeno's name is unknown, as is the little head thing. The big robot is Tako Shinjo ("deep-fried octopus").

>>281211191
The Big Mama might literally be the mother of the Kur, like a queen ant or bee.

>>281207132
>>281210873
So comparing Evil Eye (who is more powerful possessing Jiji) and Turbo Granny (who is more powerful than Turbo Okarun) it seems like they're mostly evenly matched. EE edges out TG on attack power and defense, but TG outstrips EE on speed by more than he does in either other stat. It's possible Okarun could get to the point where his own abilities + TG's powers would be more powerful than just TG, similar to how EE is more powerful with Jiji than by himself.

>>281211203

It'd be ridiculous. Jiji could probably spam All-Outs like crazy

>>281207017
Tatsu seems to like Draeing okarun in long coats and sweaters but he never wears them in the manga, probably to convey the idea that's he's on the lower end of middle class.

Out of the big 4 (Momo, Okarun, Aira, Jiji) the databook makes Aira look like a complete outsider.
>Momo and Jiji are first loves and childhood friends and practically family
>Momo and Okarun are current loves
>Okarun and Jiji are best friends


Aira has no real dynamic with none of them if you remove the supernatural shenanigans.
>Vamola plays the “sister” role for Momo and did the “I’m here to steal your man” trope better than Aira ever has
>Momo is the love interest for Okarun
>She has no relationship with Jiji

>>281210999
>Mom and Pop Joji found struggling enough to NOT get strangled unlike other victims of ages ago whose heads just straight blanked to die
Either Evil Eye had enough power to repel the worm's waves that time, or the prodigy apple doesn't fall far from the tree...

>>281224459
Aira is more the rival to Momo who happens to also be part of the team, and effectively be team leader. Despite being the MCs neither Momo or Okarun are really the leader type in any sense, its just due to MC status and Seiko knowing shit, does her house basically basically become a home base

>>281224618
>who happens to also be part of the team, and effectively be team leader. Despite being the MCs neither Momo or Okarun are really the leader type in any sense
Like i said, when you remove the supernatural shenanigans Aira has no actual friendship dynamic with none of them. And she’s not a rival to Momo, not in terms of power or in terms of winning Okarun.

>>281224740
In Aira's mind she a rival in both those senses, in terms of friendship, I'll give you she really doesn't have much for everyone besides Momo and Okarun, which is something I think later chapters should work on

Don’t care. If Jiji isn’t on the Seiko list then i might be worried.

>>281224618
>and effectively be team leader
???? Just because she keeps screaming that she's the team leader doesn't mean she is one.

>>281226245
The local gods gave her anti-aging properties.

>>281225113
momo's friends need more screentime

>>281225937
Nope.

>>281226349
Muko is so beautiful.

If only throuple poster was still alive to see his page getting adapted...

>>281226349
Agreed. They are great.

>>281226349
Captains of the good ship OkaMomo. We need their steady hands on the wheel to navigate this deep fog. I would love to see their reactions once they actually get together.

>>281226349
The only ones who didn't look down on Momo for befriending Okarun.

>>281226349
We know.
As these threads show, the Dandadan fanbase is a complex balance of romcom-fags, battleshounen-fags, sol-fags and so on, so if each get a slice it's reasonable how the slices get smaller and smaller for everyone. I cake is made of many good parts, but while you can find the cream and the filling pretty much anywhere, Momo's friends are like the strawberries placed here and there around the top of the cake: especially in these conditions, you rarely get those in your slice.

>>281226349
Do you think Momo would agree to a foursome with herself, those two, and Okarun?

>>281226674
The other girls in the class seemed to be on his side fairly quick.

Evil Eye is a Tokugawa-era Japanese child, he has no understanding of western slurs.

>>281206587 (OP)
The spin can do that?

>>281226701
No:_

>>281226723
I assumed those were also Momo's friends, just less close.

>>281206587 (OP)
It was inevitable, but it still looks incomplete because he doesn't have a mask yet.

>>281227065
Not even for a special birthday gift?

>>281226701
Dunno about that, but I like how, unlike with most other outsiders, Momo remains completely unaffected and calm when her girls play with or get touchy with Okarun. It shows you the level of the bond between them.

>>281227254
I like Muko...

>>281227425

>*becomes the strongest protagonist in 1 chapter*
i knew investing in Jiji stock would have the best payoff

>>281223669
we literally had his fight with kinta against hase and xenotitties not long ago

>>281227678
What a kyootie!

>>281227803
>the strongest protagonist after Kinta
Yep.

>>281226310
momo treats her as a leader man, read slower

>>281227964

>>281227254
does it say anything about her changing name?

Speaking of Aira, can someone edit the second panel to say "I'm already a demon"?

>>281227939
Kinta needs nanoskin to fight at his fullest and he has a limited supply of it.

>>281226310
She was literally the one leading and coordinating the team against the Kur during the Space Globalist arc and has been calling the shots during Dandagang meetings and battles since.

>>281226155
As he should be.

>>281228372

Knockoff chiitan looking motherfucker

>>281229174
Muko 100% did it on purpose and we love her for it.

>>281229951
If Banga meets Seiko and thanks her for taking care of Vamola I'm going to be so happy.

>>281229951
>Turbo Granny is there too
Cute.

>>281229150
Who’s in his top 4?

>>281230266

Vamola

>>281230720
Kinta

>>281230745
Rin

>>281230767
Zuma

>>281230784
I'm kinda surprised Okuran is there they didn't interact much and aren't in the current arc together

>>281230784
Maybe he shows respect for his tenacity, like Momo? Okarun fought him and gathered a team to break everyone out of the box.

>>281230720
KinVamo confirmed.

>>281230720
What do Vamola and Momo do in the bathtub together?

>>281206587 (OP)
I just want the author to drop the retarded love triangles and start developing pairings that will actually work. This Will They Won't They drama is a stupid waste of time, you already know Momo and Okarun will end up together. Throwing multiple "love rivals" at each of them that everybody fucking knows will never win is tiresome as hell. Worst part of the manga.

>>281231524
>This Will They Won't They drama
It seems to be a recurring theme in the mangas made by Fujimoto's former assistants.

>>281231524
it's already dropped, Momo and Okarun are 100% a couple

>>281231689
That's a shame. Does anyone really think Jiji will win Momo? Does anyone really think Aira will win Okarun? Defenders of this tired shit say that them winning isn't the point, but what then? Drawing out this nonsense this late in the series? Even up until now? Useless.

>>281231750
Someone should tell the author that.

>>281231792
Read the manga

>>281231808
Are you denying the love triangles are still being pushed?

>>281231918
Yes.

>>281231782
So cute.

>>281231918
Yes

>>281232083
>>281232153
Okay, who are Jiji and Aira getting with? They obviously haven't stopped pursuing Momo and Okarun respectively.

>>281232251
Those are one sided

>>281231918
Maybe.

>>281232267
Yes, and? Time is still wasted on it. That's my fucking point.

>>281232267
>"The author keeps wasting time pushing one-sided love triangle shit when everyone knows who'll win."

>"No he doesn't keep pushing one-sided love triangles because the love triangles are one-sided!"

This fucker

>>281232251
>Okay, who are Jiji and Aira getting with?
With each other, Tatsu is giving Jiji x Aira a long slow burn for their relationship development while Momo x Okarun developed fast and immediately.

>>281232251
Nobody. Not everyone finds the love of their life in high school.

>>281230696
So. Jiji X Seiko bros still have hope
