Kikaijima is the typical delinquent turned shy girl hero.

The villains while typical, are not exactly genre specific in regards to personality.
Oudo = megalomaniac.
Little kid (forget his name) = typical "cute" (depends on outlook), bad boy rich kid who always gets his way.
Ajimu = not sure what the hell to think.

Yeah, I think this is pretty much it.

I dont get this card game stuff and am fine with that since this is about how the characters react to it, plus this also makes it good chapter to comeback to later, re-readability will come from understanding the card game and getting a new perspective on it.

Why we not talking more about Kumugawa.

Kurosu · 2012-01-20, 18:23

Why aren't you guys fawning over Tachiarai's ass in that double page spread for like two pages like I'm seeing in other forums?

Yeah man there is a bunch of stuff from old chapters to talk about, like that time Kuma vs Zen, Kuma could hear and see from far away a conversation about him between Foul king and enforcers leader.

There there is Kuma`s screws, he imposes them on others, Akuna theorized that he imposes the image of screw onto other, that would explain how a Minus could have hidden weapons ability because he doesn't, Kuma is just creating them, it also explains the good aim, because the screws just go where he want them to as he is creating them from his imagination. The cool thing is since they affect the environment(walls ground) Then that means he is imposing his will on objects as well right?

Takigashima · 2012-01-20, 18:57

I don't think he imposes his will, but more his personality.

Kusa-San · 2012-01-20, 18:59

Erf, I'm not fond of these two last chapters. This cards game is not really interesting. I want to see Ajimu and Zen again

LeaD36 · 2012-01-20, 19:07

he needs to team up with hiramaru from bakuman to form the ultimate gag duo

Iron21 · 2012-01-20, 19:18

Tbh, I'm not feeling the card game either. I want to know how Ajimu is going to "end" the manga before the anime starts.

Sol Falling · 2012-01-20, 19:45

The card game portrayal is somewhat excessively involved. However, as far as playing it it seems like it's pretty simple and it might actually be pretty interesting. If you guys want to understand the card game more, you can actually recreate the entire match based on the record on the last page of this chapter, with two (or even just one) deck of cards.

Aside from that, if you can't enjoy the game, like Cross said, you should at least have been able to enjoy Sleepy-chan's ass in this chapter, lol :P. Tachiarai was already pretty awesome when she was first introduced ("I cannot work"? If Hiramaru and Kumagawa would get along, Tachiarai would be on a whole 'nother level), but with her being the only one willing to take on Kumagawa, she is just killing it amongst the elites these past chapters. I will take as much of Tachiarai as I can get.

Takigashima · 2012-01-20, 19:46

She has 3 months to do it as well,
It's gonna be close if she succeeds (highly unlikely)

you miss the point whilst reading : the cardgame is just the extra around the flawless gagfactory called Kumagawa Misogi.
The whole manga is just a mashup anyway, lots of 4th wall breaking stuff etc. If it wasn't for Kumagawa this series'd be long gone (til like ch 30 we were making bets when this manga gets axed in this thread)

DawnEmperor · 2012-01-21, 07:14

^ So we're obligated to like Kumagawa because he "saved" the manga? Come on now. Everyone has their own tastes.

LeaD36 · 2012-01-21, 07:49

^no, i just don't think MB had any likable points besides Kumagawa, srsly, besides very few hardcore fans, this manga was at the very bottom of the rankings for WEEKS. I'm still amazed that this is an ongoing title in wsj. . .

Just to reinterate, why you people like this Kumagawa guy so much?

His quirky character has allowed the story to progress in ways most couldn't have dreamt of when Shiranui was taking the role of the annoying (but amusing) character. I mean, he's even got a cool fighting style too.
