Dark_Cloud_Overhead Posted yesterday at 05:08 AM Posted yesterday at 05:08 AM About damn time Takemichi. Stop waiting for somebody else to do something and move that ass already. 2 1 Quote
ben0119 Posted yesterday at 05:11 AM Posted yesterday at 05:11 AM That's a brilliant conclusion you've come to, Takamichi. 😄 Quote
ben0119 Posted yesterday at 05:14 AM Posted yesterday at 05:14 AM Kisaki saved Mikey? wtf Damn Kisaki wins either way haha. Well, he's not exactly got geniuses to manipulate. 😄 1 Quote
ben0119 Posted yesterday at 05:15 AM Posted yesterday at 05:15 AM Ok no way in hell could Kisaki survive that what the hell. He's still alive and up already lol. Well good attempt anyway, Bagi, regardless of why you did it. 2 Quote
ben0119 Posted yesterday at 05:19 AM Posted yesterday at 05:19 AM Why the hell are you saving Kisaki, Takamichi? That's why?? Damn you Kazutora! Damn knives again! 1 Quote
ben0119 Posted yesterday at 05:25 AM Posted yesterday at 05:25 AM Is Kazutora really out of the action, though? Good luck with that, Takamichi LOL. Well, fuck Kisaki regardless. FIFTY VS ONE?! Well a metal pipe helps. 😄 1 Quote
ben0119 Posted yesterday at 05:27 AM Posted yesterday at 05:27 AM Just kill him, Bagi! Of course, the stab wound was worse than we thought. Still, if he hadn't hesitated, Kisaki would've been done. 2 Quote

Then again, Takamichi has also changed the timeline, so that could be part of it. But not sure haha. 1 Quote
saito34 Posted yesterday at 05:30 AM Posted yesterday at 05:30 AM you need a notebook to keep track of these brawls 2 Quote

Yeah, I mean it would help a lot if there was some genuine logic behind the decisions but a good amount of it does seem random and void of any real logic. 1 1 Quote

ben0119 Posted yesterday at 05:34 AM Posted yesterday at 05:34 AM The animation and choreography is also odd. I had to rewind that first part multiple times to see what the hell Mikey did with that kick. Quote

Well, they are gang members, so I don't expect much logical thinking from them. We definitely haven't seen much so far. 😄 2 Quote

Zero character development, just a series of shifting allegiances with very little context or payoff. It's crazy how much of the plot boils down to exposition via Takemichi's internal dialogue. That's a red flag and a bad substitute for events that actually propel the narrative forward. There must be a niche in Japan for juvenile gang life serials that devolve into a bunch of senseless brawls. Edited yesterday at 08:38 PM by saito34 1 Quote
Top Gun Posted yesterday at 09:03 PM Posted yesterday at 09:03 PM I'm glad everyone was using Nerf foam metal pipes during this fight. Safety first! Quote
