It's about damned time.

Oof. This series has a way of sucker punching you.

At the very least, this is an opportunity to redeem how bad this arc has been, but I feel like we could have gotten one or two chapters of a truncated "bad dream" that ends with Rebecca jumping back at the moment of Shiki's death, instead of wasting so much of our time with so much...

The most insulting thing about this is just how many things were stacked against Shiki staying dead, and yet Mashima still had the nerve to waste the audience's time overplaying this sap about how sad it is that Shiki is dead and how we're all supposed to be so shocked and still in disbelief. We...

I'm really disappointed that Isabella's first move wasn't to blow out both of his kneecaps and shoulders. Still an amazing chapter.

Gotta agree with everyone else. These two shits were bad enough as a background gag.

A love story of bro demons and cute witches.

This doesn't even rank in the top 10 most ridiculous things that have happened in Baki.

Ow.

Chapter 69 already showed us an alive future Shiki, so enjoy the contrived death of Superman fakeout.

@Kayriel An asspull in a story is an asspull because it is unearned and contrived, as much of this series has been with numerous major accomplishments and being dropped into the MC's lap unceremoniously. You may as well be arguing that we shouldn't even read stories because none of it is real...

This comes off as Mashima getting desperate because people are dropping this series due to its contrived writing. Make things edgy and desperate for a couple chapters so it seems triumphant when an asspull win is handed to the heroes.

Well Hell indeed

This series continues to frustrate.

It's not particularly easy to illustrate his style of fighting without having to do a Murata-esque frame-by-frame 40 page chapter, I suppose. Still, this is pretty typical stuff for Baki. Not being able to marathon through these kinds of scenes makes them feel really wasteful.

Feels like all the pages spent on the confession were wasted when we could have been getting on with the story. No one needs a dozen pages of MC pooping themselves and then talking about pooping themselves.

It's more like Musashi envisioned this battle as an endless banquet to feed his lust for combat, but now that he's actually about to face Baki, it's like there's nothing for him to eat. There is nothing for him to gain in this fight, because he's going to die.

I feel like I've read several other gender bender series that ended up like this. It's got practically nothing to do with the main character at all, the GB stuff is only occasionally mentioned, and the rest of the story is one character pouting and being a brat for dumb reasons.

Are we finally going to get all these missing chapters filled in?

I felt bad at first when I thought "Why the hell is this still going?" but I see that everyone else feels the same too. I dreaded a prolonged fight with Arthur, but now it looks like we're getting ANOTHER final battle with Merlin and probably Arthur too.
