Bamboo Blade B (Spin off of Bamboo Blade)

Spoiler for Bamboo Blade B cover:


The story is about a girl named Yuu and a boy named Ken.

Only in Yuu's case she is the opposite of Tama-chan. She's too tall and mature looking for her age. A 12 year old first year middle school bombshell.

She gets scared when older guys try to hit on her.

But just like Tama-chan she is an Otaku. She also practices kendo with Ken.

Only in her case she hates Kendo. Why? She's bad at it.

Ken looks like a mini Kojiro-sensei who still has his youth. An elementary brat.

Nana is Yuu's loli best friend in middle school.

Apparently Yuu is attached to her little friends. Quite a contrast to Tama-chan who only had Yuuji in the beginning.


Spoiler for Deja vu?:


Spoiler for Not!:


Though Yuu tries to escape Kendo. Destiny is out to get her.

Personally I thought that Ken looked like Yahiro from Roroni Kenshin

Yeah, appearance is pretty damn close. Reading this right now.

With Yuu I think I know where this is leading to compared to regular Bamboo Blade.

Spoiler for Kendo club boys and girls:


We finally get these two guys appearing in the spread of chapter 1.
Spoiler for spread chapter 1:


Why do I the feeling this a reverse harem.

Anyway in chapter 3 it looks like the sensei's problem is mirroring Toraji's dilema in Bamboo Blade.

Well I can say about this boys and girls club. They are more semi-serious than Tama's club. Semi because some are fooling around.

Chapters 4 and 5 is out and wow Yuu is damn good taking out 4 of the members in a row. I guess Ken-chan is just that damn good.

So basically it's not that she's bad, it's that Ken's broken?

So in essence if you get your butt handed to you by a superhero often enough the average kendo kid would be a joke?

Can imagine how powerful that little grade schooler really is. Yuu get's beaten immediality when sparring with Ken...

Not sure if I missed it, but did it ever tell the age difference between the two? Things could get interesting when Ken comes to the same school...

Well Yuu is only 12 years old despite her bombshell body. Plus the fact Ken is her Osana-najimi. So Ken is likely 11 or 12 years old.

I think I do recall somewhere that Ken is cited as "one year younger" than Yuu. Please confirm this, I don't have much to recall...

Just noticed this. Man, glad I'm not the only one who caught the yahiko thing - Ken looks like his clone.

Edit: Having read the five scanlated chapters, I can only say that Ken-chan must be one hell of a badass.

i really like this spinoff.though im torn between yuu and kikukawa. maybe bc kikikawa reminds me of shirayuki mozore fom R+V. lol i absolutely knew how she'd end up after the sports attack. that scene is so far the best in that ch. im sure she'll turn out to be a great fighter.

Well to me Yuu may be at least Satori's level. Without the hang ups of Satori.

Ken may be a match for either Tama-chan or Ura.

Well I kinda think it about it as Ken-chan is just the male version of Tama-chan, expect he's not shy and more straight froward.

btw I with dude that thinks the lass with the bunny hairclip is moe overload, I soooooooooooo hope we get to see more of her!!!!
Cute doesn't come close to describing just how cute she is!!!
