New chapter is up. New-Baam is a goddamned rear end-kicking machine, definitely enjoying this; it'll be interesting to see if this "FUG" thing turns out to be the case. I like the big guy with the shape changing thing over his shoulder depending on what he's trying to do.

Pyronic posted:I'm predicting a Vegeta-style explosion of the shinsoo test machine. I want this so bad and expect it entirely with the third test ending up as Baam, the crazy pyro girl and our current protagonist taking on other teams of three to progress upward. Possibly add in the big guy who just got the top score to Baam's team.

Question about the most recent chapter: Did Viole slow time, or was he moving really rapidly, or was she just stunned that he wasn't affected by her fire at all? The movement of her hand and him saying Stop makes me think he can concentrate shinsoo in order to either slow time or slow down perception of time, but it's hard to be sure yet.

Well that answers my question from last chapter about Viole's abilities. Nice stuff, though some action soon would be great too. e: Going back to reread about where he got that ability really helps you appreciate just how much of a prodigy Baam is: He was struck by the Ranker using shinsoo to temporarily stop movement, an ability that took the Ranker decades to master, and then immediately duplicated the effect in an extraordinarily tense situation. His ability to control and learn about shinsoo isn't just good or strong, it seems practically as inborn as everyone else's ability to breathe.

cooldude2.0 posted:In a system dominated by being 3 steps ahead of your opponent, it's surprising that the ranker wouldn't see that coming. I can't believe that anyone who made it to floor 20 would try something that didn't work a second time. The first attempt was probably just a lure. Based on the rumor the tester heard I'm beginning to wonder if Viole isn't part of FUG. I think the author would've showed Viole killing the regular if he had been the one to do it. It seems more likely to me that Viole is a lone wolf or part of a separate group, and that he just happened to wind up in a group with a FUG member. Everyone takes him for a member of FUG even though he isn't. e: Except I just realized earlier he admitted to being in FUG. Mo_Steel fucked around with this message at 20:13 on May 17, 2012 |

Volume 2, Chapter 16 is out. Great fight scene between Viole and the Ranker, I very much doubt this is all Viole is capable of though. I do like that until now he has been relying on the trick he learned so far back to bring down enemies. Why waste time being flashy if you can freeze someone and defeat them that way? Assumedly he has more up his sleeve than that.

cooldude2.0 posted:Do any of these korean webcomics ever get animated? It seems like it'd be a really easy anime to do filler for as well, given a time skip and the number of floors we didn't see between Baam's arc and Viole's arc.

Slime posted:What a good chapter. From the way Viole(t) dealt with the worm guy thing controlling Yeon, he knew exactly what do to, which implies to me that he knows those two. It seems like the control wasn't total, as he managed to piss her off to get her to try and yell at him. This chapter has some solid images all around, but I think it's made me an even bigger fan of Teddy. The guy has a pretty fierce expression here, not to mention the reveal of him as the true devil-arm. Also to nitpick, the scanlator comments added in are annoying. "Kinky" etc. I appreciate the work they put in but toning down the commentary within the strip itself would be nice.

Nahxela posted:I wish the chapters were longer than 6 pages I almost want to swear off reading this until it's done so I can marathon it, I want to know what happens next pretty bad. Looks like they're working on improving their chances still, and my assumption is Koon is the man in charge because it's Koon we're talking about here. That said... where's the Gator!?

Shugojin posted:I'm reading it that way too. She's really petty and doesn't seem to have much foresight. Koon's apology to Baam is a nice touch; he knows the Baam he knew wouldn't approve of his pursuit for vengeance but he's going to do it anyway. Man I can't wait for Koon and Viole to meet up.

For some odd reason everything the fake Viole said was voiced in my head by the Hercule english dub voice from DBZ, which made it even better. Looking forward to seeing Hwaryun's role in all this and getting some answers as to what the hell is going on behind the scenes.

Serious Frolicking posted:I was hoping that Baam's motivations were a bit more complex, actually. The hostage thing is a bit simplistic. He isn't even chasing Rachel to get answers. It is a nice reveal with respect to another aspect of Baam though: I initially assumed that he had refused to team up with the others because he had a broken heart / was a jerk now / was arrogant. It turns out it's actually much more true to his original character: he refused them at first to try and protect them. He knew Wangnan and the others would be scrutinized by FUG and possibly used as additional leverage to get him to act a certain way or even killed, and he didn't want to see more people hurt because of him. I think he was totally convinced to follow that path until Wangnan's speech about the tower and his friends in "The Preys" (02), which was enough to move his mind to an undecided point. How long they remain a team should be really interesting to watch unfold.

I can't wait, I love the fights in this story more than just about any other. Shinsoo is a pretty malleable force leading to a lot of interesting uses.

Shugojin posted:The speed group's translations are just as readable and are wholly lacking in both creepy comments and creepy pictures. It's really all I ask for from translations. Gotta agree with this, the creepy comments were really making me dislike the series and the author doesn't deserve that. Also this was a fun little extra chapter.

lil baby anime posted:I'm kinda used to expecting a huge fight and only getting a small one but drat was this a pleasant surprise. Viole whipped out a huge bag of tricks and just tore them up. He's on a completely different level. Completely stopping the pipsqueak's lightning spear, lighting em up with 5 little balls of energy, ahhhh this chapter is so good To make sure I was reading through this action correctly, The woman with Baam is the one who was controlling the lighthouse the whole time right? Including when she made the triangle shield against the lightning spear? I ask because it looks a lot like Baam was totally ready to handle it himself but that she's pretty proficient in her own right in terms of working as a team. Next chapter is going to be something amazing.

I'm so loving confused from this. So she's clearly bullshitting about her purpose being to trap and kill Koon, but rather it's to catch Viole. And Koon obviously doesn't recognize Baam/Viole, which is understandable to some extent. So did Baam freeze the guy and take the detonator back and then give it to that psycho? And she's blowing it up to presumably cover their escape? Was Viole telling that girl that he would kill her if she screwed with his friends again?

The single best character in this whole series. Maizano is #2. Looking forward to this dispute, though I don't really get why Baam can't just win and then give Androssi her name back? It sounds like maybe the Families would still see it as an excuse because she didn't get the name back herself?
