LOVE may have thought she was easily able to attack OVER when he was male...but now that he's become a female, idiot-killer torpedo, it's a completely different game! Is this really the turning point...or is LOVE just too stupid to realize!?

Caption: To Be Continued

TN: You really have to ask yourself this: is LOVE really that stupid? I mean, she's cute and all but how in the world can she not realize that not only has her opponent changed into an angry, rampaging torpedo...she changed her gender as well? Sure it was shocking way back and they probably don't know too much about those sorts of things in the Under-Maruhage, but LOVE really should have done her homework. (speaking of homework: I sort of wish I knew myself if torpedos and vegetables can coexist...) Though shockingly, one of the few major highlights of the chapter...is that Hatenko was finally useful! Yeah, I've said it before: Kagi Shinken is an amazing style even if the user is one of my least favorite characters...but Hatenko World is just too cool to not mention! You sort of do wonder how Hair Kingdom survivors can create these weird worlds with their own rules...but hey, this is the only time he does it mostly since he's really not used to using it...and because everyone looks weird in it. And finally...while we really sort of are figuring out the differences between OVER and Torpedo Girl (I'm still off about the age thing because...well, the guidebook to the series says they're the same age), at least Sawai found a way to at least make it a little easier...sadly, though, we're really not going to see OVER ever again until the very, very end of everything so at least it was nice that this fight was a bit of a sendoff. Next time...well, sure the Under-Heavenly Kings are done but there are still those "other two" working for Hydrate...we'll learn about one of them next time...but until then: GET YOUR HOMEWORK DONE!
