Needless

[Avvesione]

That's too bad to see the blog deleted. Looks like they'll have to find some other hosting site now for their new blog. Pewpew's site is still up on wordpress, so maybe that'll work.

[Homura7]

The blog is back. Apparently they were doing maintenance:

Blogger will go into read-only mode Wednesday (5/11) 10:00PM PST for about an hour for maintenance.

[Sayo A.]

Ah, the old "break everything by fixing stuff" ploy. Well, that's a relief.

[Soji]

Glad to see it was not anything serious the thing of the blog.
In any case less than a week to the next ch raw with this raw we perhaps discover the effect of that pill that Yamada has taken.
In addition of course, to see the city itself.

I can't wait to see the City since I've always been interested in it since I started reading Needless but I don't know if we'll see the City itself in the next chapter, unless the story focuses on Blade rather than Cruz or if Cruz goes to the City without seeking any help or anything.

I wonder how long Cruz will be alone for. He's never been alone on his own throughout the series aside for a few minutes in certain situations (between Aruka and Blade, after PF Blast, etc.) Would be interesting to see him do something alone for a change.

[Skieth]

Cruz will at least have Mio to help him out. I'm interested to see how the city keeps the majority of Needless in the Blackspot. Don't see a big wall that much of a deterrent.

[Ynot]

I'm also interested in seeing what kind of countermeasures the city has taken to prevent Needless from walking through the gate and mess around in the city. We already saw a gate being guarded by a Needless in the Needless 1.5 story but whether that'll be the same right now....

I'd love to see Blade etc walking through the city. That has a lot of potential for gags, but if we're only going to see the story from Yamada's point of view it could take a long time before we'll get to see anything related to the city. Yamada would still have to traverse a large part of the Black spot and without a testament to ride that could take a long time. The only friends he can rely on at the moment are Guido and Mio. Mio is strong but not fast and I certainly don't expect Guido to be of much help when it comes to fighting off the local blackspot gangs.

All in all I'm interested the most in seeing whether the story will only follow Yamada or whether we'll see more of Blade too. Both have their cons and pros storywise.


I tried translating another Disk information page. This time it's about Overlord

Spoiler for Overlord:

オーバーロードっていうのは、今から4年前の2126
年頃に実存したギルドの事よ。
ただギルドとは名ばかりで実体はならず者達の軍隊だったみたいね。
強力なニードレスを揃え、 BS各地で略奪と大量殺戮を働いてた事で有名だわ。
シメオン製薬が進出てくるまでは、この〈上帝〉が blackspot
で最も恐れられていた組織だったみたいね。

頭領は氷のシュトローム。
現在、 彼はシメオンの幹部になってるわ。同じ幹部のハットフィールドと組んで
【闇市】に【溶けない氷の壁】を作ったことからも、
強力なニードレスだっていう事が分かるわよね。
氷なのに火炎放射器でも溶けなかったもんアレ。

左天も言ってたけど、アークライトを除けば【第四波動】
が唯一通じないニードレスが彼なのよね。

左天とアルカとシュトロームは面白い相性の参画関係
になっていて、左天は熱吸収でアルカの【火神の息吹】
無効化、アルカはシュトロームの氷を分子振動で無効化、
そしてシュトロームは熱源遮断で左天の第四波動を無効化
できるのよ。

唯一勝てない相手だったからか、 未来のシメオン内部でもどうやら左天は
シュトロームとはほとんど接触を持ったなかったみたいで、シュトローム
の事を詳しく知らないみたいだったわね。相性とはいえ、自分より階級が
下の人間に勝てないってのはやっぱり複雑。

史実ではS地区征服しようとした〈上帝〉は今から3年程前にブライド達と衝突、
壊滅的なダメージを受け手撤退。
その後、上層部が一部シメオンに引き抜かれる形でギルドは自然消滅した
事になってるわ。

だけど、今クルズ君と左天が迷い込んでる7年以上の世界には、4年前に組織
された〈上帝〉があるなんて! ああややこしい。ブライドの記憶、一体どうなってるのよ!
まだ幼いブライドには荷が重すぎるうわよ!

ちなみにシュトロームが使う【金剛慈氷拳】は、
【needless1.5】で登場した氷のニードレス
色即がつかっていたのと同じ技よ。
コミックス【needless zero】に収録されているから
気になったら是非見てみてね。


The overlord guild existed about 4 years ago, in 2126.
It looks like they were an army of hooligans and a guild only in name.
They gathered strong needless', and are notorious for the pillaging and
many massacres they commited in various places in Blackspot.
It looks like Overlord was the most feared organization in blackspot untill the medicine manufacturer Simeon stepped forward,

Ice Strom is it's leader. Currently he's has become one of the top brass of Simeon.
Together with Hatfield from the same upper echelon, he made the unmeltable
icewall in black market. It's no wonder he is said to be a very strong needless.
Despite being ice, it couldn't even be melted with a flamethrower.

Like Saten has already said, with the exception of Arclight, Strom is
the only Needless whom the fourth wave doesn't work on.

Saten, Aruka and Strom have a triangular relationship.
Saten's heat absorption can cancel out Aruka's Agnishwattas,
Aruka can cancel out Strom's ice by vibrating the molecules,
and Strom can cancel out Saten's fourth wave, by cutting him
off from a heat source.

because he's the only one whom he couldn't win from, in the future
within simeon he had almost no contact with him, which is probably why
he doesn't know a lot about him. Despite compatibility, he's lower in rank
and he can't beat him...indeed it's complicated.

It's a historical fact that Overlord tried to conquer the S district about
3 years ago and collided with Blade and his friends. They received devastating damage
and retreated. after that, when the "upper management" was taken away
by Simeon the guild naturally dissolved.

But cruz and saten are lost in a world of more than 7 years ago,
four years before an organized Overlord existed! What a mess.
What on earth is happening to Blade's memories!
That's too much of a burden for a young blade!

By the way, Stroms "Vajra Cold-Hearted Fist" is the same
skill as Shikisoku used in needless 1.5
It's in the Needless zero collection.
Please take a look if you're interested.

You're right, but what I thought was something like the ch see more from the standpoint of Yamada and some pages (That they are the beginning, during or at the end of ch remains to be seen) on Blade, Eve and co standpoint.
As has been done during some ch of this memory world arc that has just ended.

I wonder how long Cruz will be alone for. He's never been alone on his own throughout the series aside for a few minutes in certain situations (between Aruka and Blade, after PF Blast, etc.) Would be interesting to see him do something alone for a change.

This is one thing I'm curious too, and I admit that I wonder if AnN did not reappear to Cruz in the next ch.
I mean this is a perfect situation for her reappearance.
But I admit there are two things that I hope the next ch explain or at least give us some clues about it.
And their are ..
1What is the pill that Yamada has swallowed (as we have already said in other posts)
2 I wonder if the headache that Yamada has complained during ch 90 is really due to the Memory guard or if it could be more behind.
In any case it seems to me or the girls have no problem has to be naked aroud Yamada, or be half naked and show their underwear always around him?
Edit:Right I forgot, Ynot thanks for the translation of the extra page regarding Overlord

about number one...
some one make rumor that it's was the chip Aruka looking for, the other half Archlight want.

while the other possibilities is the device to detect Cruz current position/condition in case if his life in danger so they/or some allies can rush to save him in time.

May be from latest battle in Simeon Tower, Disk acquired some way to prevent testament attacking a target by installed a device that make testament acknowledged it as 'friends' and not 'foe' like the card Killers Girls Squad of Sento Riri Gakuen have.

the third possibility is ...well...sex change pills (the most favorite one)
since Simeon looking for a boy named Cruz Schild....and not a Girl named Yamada Nadeshiko
The pill will transform the inside and lower half of him from inside his body
Kuchinasi will be very VERY HAPPY to have Yamada as full fledged girl

I'm more curious to why Disk/Blade want to leave him in Black Spot from the enemy they'll might encounter in the city, especially from Saten. Does Blade also know some one hand save Cruz at PF Zero blast?, or notice Saten behavior toward Cruz, or his altered memory (after Cruz and Saten sucked in it) make him updating some info in his head.

Judging by the plus and minus point if the Misfit gang bring Cruz along with them to the city or not, they sure get more disadvantages if they brig Cruz along. But for Cruz without protection from Rin and Mio, one disadvantages is enough to make him die.

oh! speaking about Rin, does she already know about Yamada true gender yet?, I'm afraid she's an aggressive type, and want to 'nimble' a bit Kuch-tan 'snack' (the main dish is Riru), once she found out that the girl that make her expelled from Sento Riri Gakuen, actually a cute-weak-and powerless-little boy

and the girls is mesmerized by how cute Cruz in his Trap mode Charms, so they unconsciously think of him as a girl and didn't mind to be naked or showing their underwear around him
boy! I hope that my face and body was that cute too!

[Kon the Magnificent]

Cruz looks more and more like a girl everytime I see him. I don't know if I should smile or pity the kid.

As for the pill, I think its meant to change Cruz from the inside out. Maybe not necessarily into a girl, but what if it makes him develop some kind of poison inside his body that'll be used against Archlight and his team, or possibly the Clone Soldiers

[shadowii]

actually last chapter his maleness was shown more than it had in a long time

I know what you mean...
Toilet scene right? hahahahaha

Ynot release 1,5 and after read it,.....why I see Moka Akashiya from Capu in there?
oh well..she's more like hybrid between :
Archlight and Eve or.................. (hair,ability)
Cruz and Blade......... (brain,pose)

[Avvesione]

Sorry I'm late with this.

Chapter 91 (City 2) preview:

Spoiler:

Seems to be following Blade and Company, judging solely from the picture and the quick translation I did in my head of the text. My guess is that they're breaking through the gate there.

Thanks as always for preview

Spoiler for preview:

It seems to me, or Seto is on the ceiling upside down?
And Eve with wings is beautiful, though now I wonder why she make grow a pair of wings for herself
However I am sure that although is seem a ch more focus on Blade and Eve ,we will see Yamada at least once or for a short time during the ch.

Needless 1.5 already translated to English by YNot
But I'm more interested to see Needless 0 and Needles 0 II

[Soji]

^I did not know it had been translated into English. Would you mind passing Needless 1.5, up to now always seen in Japanese and I must say I am very interested to read in English.
Regarding Needless 0 if you go to manga fox ,you find it some ch translated into English. (If you have not already read of course).

[Homura7]

The raw is already out. Send me a pm if you want it.

Spoiler for 91:

A chapter centered in the group's doings. They destroyed the gate blocking their path and got rid of all the gatekeepers. Now onto the highlights:

-Eve got another of "these" to increase her calories.
-The City... WOW
-Total masacre at the committe!!! They were all injected with the apple and, as a result of not having what is needed to assimilate it, their bodies blew to pieces. It's confirmed that the content of the syringe Ishiyama injected with was, indeed, the Apple of Eden. "Serving fruit", eh.
-Arclight fully recovered, and though she doesn't appear in the chapter, it's fine to say Arca is in the City too.
-Lastly and surprisingly, Arclight takes the appearance of one of the members of the committe that were killed.

Been a while since we had a chapter of these, no Cruz nor Mio except in the cover.

Until next month!

[Soji]

Ynot,thanks as always for the raw.

Spoiler for ch 91:

I must admit I am a little disappointed that we have not seen even once Yamada and what the pill does to him, but the ch itself was epic.
Interesting that Eve using that object which took away the weakness of her doppelganger.
And It is interesting to see if a normal person refuses the Appel of eden what happens to him, it seems that Yamada was lucky with Eve and with pfzero.And Arclight back to full health is very bad news for Blade and co.
I'm curious to see how Blade and co will fare without Yamada intelligence.
Another thing is, I'm the only one with the impression that in the next one ch or two ch Yamada goit to be kidnapped?

and

Spoiler for Needless 1.5:

It seems I was right that it is the fault of the Zero skills that AnN has memory problems or at least that seems to be the explanation given in ch (although I still wonder if there's more like a traumatic event).
I have to admit that this chapter makes me wonder why Yamada was not in the city and was in the Black Spot.
Any way, I have to say that it is interesting to see how many similarities both AnN and Yamada share, initially I thought it was just their kindness and intelligence, but read this ch has shown me that there's more.
Both believed themselves useless or rather true Needless and both are concerned about the discomfort they give to people and like AnN said to Cain in the respect that she lives a happy life and angering Black mother.
And one last thing I'm wondering what Madame what to say to AnN at the end of ch before the same AnN stop her, saying that is fine ,and that she would have forgotten even if Madame said that thing.

[Ynot]

^ no prob Soji But you know, there's other places out there which are pretty damn fast when it comes to raw chapters, including Needless *COUGH*google rawbunko*COUGH*

As for the chapter

Spoiler for needless 91:

I was a bit disappointed with it. Not having Yamada around really lessens the joy for me. Of course Disk could've filled that gap, but she wasn't all that much present either. The first page with Mio and Yamada was such a tease! Here I was thinking "Allright we'll be seeing some Mio plus Yamada action!" but no such thing I do hope we'll see more of those two next month

[Kon the Magnificent]

I'm not sure what to say about this chapter

Spoiler for needless 91:

No Cruz being in the chapter was a big let down, but everything else was pretty cool. Watching Solva stop the bullets like she did was something amazing, yet expected (Considering her power and all). Seto is a ninja and can stand on walls, and is still badass while doing it. Eve is equiped with a new super mega drink emplanted into her body giving her endless doppleganger use. Blade is still Blade, so there isn't much to go on that.

666 Group...well, it was nice knowing them, labrats are labrats, it was gruesome watchin them go like they did, but meh. And now with Archlight back in action, things are progressing greatly.

But with Cruz back in the Black Spot, I wonder if he's in any danger. What if Aruka was left in the Blackspot as well...would that mean Cruz is defenseless, or will he have Mio and the other girls from the Girl Squad to protect him should the time come
