Shounen Sakamoto Days by Suzuki Yuuto

Sakamoto,you could have handled this better... Nagumo is already an assassin and Slur made even civilians kill each other...

Nagumo amazing as always.

His technique is still one of the craziest one in this series and Suzuki never tried to explain how it works .

Damn. I'll critique the story choices all night and day, but when the choreography hits, it really hits. I loved the plays Nagumo made this chapter.

That being said, I guess it's time for Uzuki's "beast" to awaken now and up the ante a bit more. Then I suspect Shin will make a surprise appearance and help out with Nagumo before Sakamoto recovers and jumps back into the fray.

Shin again? Please no! If he appears it should be to rescue Sakamoto.

Prepare thyself. Shin will return! Seriously though, I doubt the author will let Shin sleep through the finale. Participation is up in the air, sure, but he'll at least get a front row seat.

Meh, I knew this was a possibility, but I was really hoping for a surprise Asaki personality reveal.

This is how we get Sakamoto VS Nagumo huh... Prime Sakamoto... Guess it's confirmed that he was stronger than Takamura then.

Only him can make Slur look cool at this point . The real Sakamoto will survive and this persona will die, confirming Atari's prediction.

Shin is here, I wonder if he'll fight Gaku? Glad he came back but he feels out of place here ATM.

Hmm, I guess I (and others) misunderstood Sakamoto's words in the museum arc. Prime Sakamoto was still the strongest in the Order during his time, despite Takamura's mythical strength. Seems like both we the audeince and museum Sakamoto had severely underestimated the level of Sakamoto's decline if that is the case.

While I hate how Uzuki's character has been handled, I really wish he had been developed as his own person/assassin more prior to his copy cat shtick. Sure, he's using other's people's persona to farm his feats, but it's still impressive he has the physical abilities to mimic them. The Al Kamar gang really had the potential for some interesting backstories to see the training and testing they went through to reach these levels, but not seeing them really sucks.

All that being said, it's not looking good for the, admittedly injured/rusty, former OG Order members. They are probably going to get styled on for a chapter. Then we'll get the Sakamoto Family coming in for a turn, allowing Shin to show off his growth. Then Sakamoto will probably awaken for the final fight.

Prime Sakamoto + Rion wow... Cool but will he achieve anything? He looks cool at least, that's an improvement.

Yeah, it'd be kinda pointless if Uzuki didn't accomplish much of anything with Prime Sakamoto and Prime Rion levels of skill. I'm not saying I want the Order members to die, but he should end some careers at least.

 

[Demonspeed]

Nagumo is so cool...

Was kinda funny to see him X copying Sakamoto while he was being helped by Rion 2.0 .

If Akira doesn't become an assassin I guess she'll become a surgeon or something.

 

[Demonspeed]

Sakamoto will have another kid huh. Fitting power up for this series .

Is it crazy to think to Kippei is stronger than Osaragi?

Is it crazy to think to Kippei is stronger than Osaragi?

Not a surprise given how this arc continues the odd treatment she's been given as of late.

Hell, she literally vanished from this fight for no real reason despite not being knocked out and relatively fine the last we saw her.

Anyway, comparatively, their feats are pretty similar in that their biggest spotlight is trashing characters decisively weaker than them. Funnily enough, they also shared the same opponent in Mayfuyu, who lost to both.

Kippei outfighting a nerfed Tenkyu is a point in his favor, though Osaragi didn't do all that bad against Gozu before the old lady interrupted.

Osaragi didn't land a blow on Uzuki while Kippei did, but Kippei also got completely mollywhopped while being closest to 100%, while Osaragi is likely not at full power after her poison ingestion, but is still not down and out despite, again, vanishing from the fight for no reason.
