Dear Nisio. You played Shounen Nakama Power straight. I am disappointed, unless it's going to be subverted next chapter.

I liked the crack theory, it would be fresh...


As much as I want Zenkichi to be special, I also like the idea of him being the normal badass...

This was one of the ch I liked the most.
Also ,like Tenchi Hou Take point out seem that Ajimu has bet on Zen.

Man,I want to see how the next ch will continue.

Not really Nakama power. Nakama power is illogical powerup through friendship in order to defeat the villain. Zenkichi sacrificed his freaking arm to trick Iihiko to allow shiranui to pretty much kill herself or dam near close to it.

Tenchi Hou Take@ Seem to me that Zen and Shiranui just troll Iihiko.

Also why I can see Ajimu say * just a plan*?

Brilliant, amazing, exciting, you name it. A chapter that lives-up to the hype from 182.

I admit I was wrong about the part of Medaka defeating Shiranui.
However Medaka will certainly have the final say in this arc, just like all arcs.
Now that everyone bar her is dead, she will save everyone somehow.
Either that or something ridiculous happens like Ajimu stomping Fukurou and then Medaka having the final say.

Also in case I am misunderstood I don't dislike this Manga or Medaka. I am just saying what will happen considering the nature of this manga (I do understand where the hate comes from though)
Personally I don't take this manga seriously. Its like fun in a box ( well more like a (Zen's) journey to open Medaka's Box lol)

Finally Fukurou next chapter. Everything may very well have been his plan to get into Medaka's pants lol and also get everyone out of the way.

Medaka Box was never truly a deconstruction...

Latest arc done yet?

Been waiting for a while to jump back to this. I'm not the kind of person to read manga weekly.

Hehe, you're always welcome, Butch.

And, completion?

Probably. The next volume is completing in two chapters, so the arc probably ends in two chapters as well.

I guess how I ultimately feel about this chapter will depend on what happens next chapter.

Zen's plan was actually quite ingenious, when you think about it. He already has what the other Style users lacked, which was "understanding" of the feelings of himself and others(why Ajimu suicided for, apparently), rathern than just "knowing".

Simply defeating Iihiko with non-sense like "The opponent is strong, therefore I win" would have been utterly useless, since Iihiko would then just target another body for possession, but more importantly, it would kill Shiranui, therefore failing Zen's primary objective. He needed Iihiko to kill himself.

So he surmised that he had to fight Iihiko to exactly the point where the destroyer would be desperate enough to switch back to Shiranui in-order to stop Zenkichi from fighting - all within a strict time limit!
I see now why Zen sacrificed his arm. It was the only way to properly create that opening with the given time, where Iihiko knew that he would need to pull-up a fast one to be able to stop Zenkichi's attack.

That same fast-one which would be his ultimate undoing.

Goddamn. Zen is the motherfawking Batman.

But Shiranui also gets some credit for the awesome plan. After all, They knew.

All-in-all, it was a really brilliant plan. Props to Nishio for pulling something like that off so well.

Nice Chapter(thought it was a clever, but normal way to defeat Ihiko). It reminded me of this Frodo-esque "You do not matter and you have no power; all that matters is that you are her friend". I also found that quote of not blaming extraordinary people for mediocrity interesting and relatable. There are people who can do amazing things, but different things.

He's not Medaka's support, he's can be everyone's(yeah gushing a bit here).

Yeah that was confirmed pretty much the chapter it occurred but probably the dude had already lost alll resemblance of concious after long term inhabitance of Iihiko.

Anyway Zenkichi adds to his list of the manga's best fights.

The weakness was kind of obvious but execution was impressive. I really hate Medaka Box even if it is supposed to be a parody manga, it still pisses me off..
