Shuumatsu no Valkyrie - Ch. 105 - 7:49

[Bootybug]

Ofc it's going to be short when you bring a gun to a sword fight

 

[KuroViLolitannia]

Simpboi ded yah

 

[Figtree22]

I actually love how quick and "anti-climatic" this fight was, it feels very fitting for these characters.

 

[NotSomeone]

i'm pretty sure it should be second unless i'm forgetting a fight, it is slightly longer than adam v zeus(7:13)

It might not be the shortest, but it was the biggest damage gap in this whole manga.
99% of the damage Simo took was caused by his own power. Loki literally barely scraped him.

 

[TwisterJR]

Wait that was it?

 

[Umesan]

Short, Clean and simple.

Happy Simo won. Guess he and his Valkyrie partner Radgridr get to live together enjoying more picnics and tea parties.

 

[ragnarok04]

Man this shit is fucking ass. Trickster vs Sniper should've been about the mental fortitude and patience. Guy just literally did 360 no scopes with zero explanation and won. Boring. When is this series over.

I mean...yeah. Simo is a sniper.
The second Loki gets in range, the battle is over.

This is different from all the other fights in the sense that it isn't a brawl. It was a high-risk high-reward gambit featuring whether Loki would reach Simo and win, or die trying. What was really stupid is why Loki chose this arena.

 

[GetThatW]

Oh, a bit underwhelming but whatever, I wanted Simo to win anyway

 

[sixfish11]

Short, sweet, very based.

 

[DiscountJoJo]

DAMN SIMO LETS FUCKIN GOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

tho Loki didn't feel very fleshed out (and how badly I wished for Anubis to be his opponent instead, cuz the author could've used it to touch on Simo's post war life) I think it was a solid fight overall. Not my favorite like I was hoping it would be, but still had interesting ideas going on throughout.

 

[ToastFrog]

I have doubts this is all a trick

 

[JBreezy]

Sadly heracles vs jack is still the last good fight, how many chapters has it been since then

 

[HippoPilot]

I knew it was over when he started explaining instead of doing. If he had accomplished it the readers would be taken aback by "it actually worked?"

It's also a bullshit ending.
That "feels to take a life" explanation doesn't work because they're copies. And remember, the Loki copy could give off a soul painting, meaning it would feel like taking a life, a sign it would trick Simo. He didn't take his life so he couldn't have been able to tell. Inevitable annoying ending for Loki.

 

[Scrabbleman]

round 2: adam's was shortest

The fact that Adam's fight is the shortest but also the coolest just shows how much this manga has gotten worse over time.

 

[BalrogDeMorgoth]

Not gonna lie, that was underwhelming. The pain of taking a life moment was cool but Loki's part of it was far from being big brained enough to be satisfying.

Especially since he ended up teleporting behind Simo again anyway so really the entire plan could have been replace by that in the first place.

Also did they really have a Baki Interview moment?

 

[onionskins]

This fight felt too fast and anticlimactic. I mean, Loki is a character we've seen since the early chapters. I thought he was going to be important to the story later on, but he just died that quickly, huh?

 

[concerned2]

i really thought loki would win this one ngl and that fight ended too fast, anticlimactic as well. idk what to feel.

 

[Nephilm]

Not satisfied with how Simo Haya is simply portrayed as a one-note depressed dude, and what would presumably be a battle of wits have the winning side posses one-hit-kill instant counters to anything the opponent could throw at them, and the ability to see through any tricks because of gut feeling.

 

[twinklecake]

The writing is stupid, but in a nostalgic kinda way? Reminds me of those Bonelli comics I inherited from my parents, or something.
