The author makes a good point in his notes: Baam has never really fought anyone on even terms, he's always at a massive advantage or disadvantage. Although my impression was that the Zahard Princesses were at least comparable to him in a fight.

Honestly this whole arc is bursting at the seams with potential and having to wait a week at a time is getting painful :f5:

Honestly the Im interested in seeing how Baam will handle a even match.

I'm interested in seeing Koon ruin FUG's day.

Regarding Rak changing size, I think it's done to him, not by him, and probably as a limiter since he's so great.

Or Koon recruits both Viole and Bhargav, stomps FUG's team into paste. Or even just with Bhargav.

I dunno about this, I think he is just able to change at will now because that was done to him on floor 2.

I thought Androssi was Yiha for a second there, the pose and outfit looked completely out of character. Well, I guess because it was a different character!

How long have they been teasing Baam reuniting with his friends? Its been so long now, and everyones starting to recognize Jyu Viole Grace. I hope we get to see it soon!

I guess this is the Arc where Baam is basically reunited with his friends? Now that he's out in the open, they're all figuring out who he is pretty quick.

Baam can copy any shinsoo technique he sees, right? So he because saw Bhargav make someone's head explode in the chapter before this one, he should be able to do that, too, right?

Well they never explained how it worked, and Im pretty sure every technique hes ever copied was targeting him, so he might have to be close to learn it

Bhargav did that without creating a baang, so he might not have even been using Shinsoo.

Maybe he just moves really fast :anime:

I really liked that the kid who ran up to Baam and shook his hand at the beginning of the arc is cheering for him in the last panel. It's the little touches SIU does that make TOG so great.

Any thoughts on who Poken is? From their initial appearance, they seem a bit rabbit-like from the shadow, but Reflejo seems to be taking credit for getting Viole on the team and berated XiaXia during the One Shot arc.

Did someone challenge the translators to throw a grammatical error into every speech bubble on this page? Jeez. Subject-verb agreement, folks!

edit: I don't know if it was said explicitly before, but Ran uses attacks made by the Koon princess and has blue hair and eyes. I never really considered he might not be a Koon.

I find it's worth it to re-read with TheCompany's translation (link to last week's). Usually there's a few small things they get right that the speed translation doesn't. The problem of course is they take an extra week.

I'm predicting Ran will be the winner here; Anak's confusion about what Ran is up to can't be a good sign for her. The fight between the other six guys will be won by Parakewl, to show that he's not as incompetent as he used to be (so he can job to someone else later on).

Also, predicting that Anak swallowed a baang too. She's only attacking with three baangs here but we've seen her using four.

More of an isolated room, cage is still accurate and in fact proper, just because it isn't a cell doesn't make it not a cage

Definitely not, that would be a cheap powerup for a character that's just trying to brute force her way through. Even Baam fights smart.

We've seen at least one instance of Anak using more than brute force though. For example, back in season 1 where she went for Androssi's high heels. I will admit that she might not be willing to imitate Ran's technique specifically.

After someone mentioned that they kept hiding how Anaks shorts worked with her tail a few chapters back, it looks like SIU has managed to figure it out since then since he wasnt afraid to draw her from behind.

I have a horrible sneaking suspicion that, as his masters/owners, FUG (will at least claim to) own all his accomplishments. :(
