@Veshv Definitely a unique experience that I'll miss. I've read through long-since-ended gamble manga before like Liar Game but I've never been able to share the experience and theorize about what happens next with readers who are all going through it as if its releasing live. The manga being...

As a huge fan of both Oofuna and Nobuko I'm a bit sad that Oofuna's big revival happened off-screen and we didn't really get much more of Nobuko's backstory. I'm happy she finally got a happy ending with Hal though.

Impressive. The idea of Eko focusing Baku's goal and driving his motivation is really well done. In watching Souichi's tape, he basically was inspired to become what Eko believed Souichi could be. His motivation was basically to usurp Souichi's "destiny". I think that's a really interesting...

I actually thought Hal standing might have been reality because Yakou responded to something Hal "said", but I guess it was a shared hallucination. Heartbroken. I loved Souichi, and although I knew Baku wouldn't lose, it's sad to see the finality of the splash page for the final gamble like...

Baku's laughing is a bit unnerving when his best friend had just presumably died. But I guess this is the peak of gambling he was always searching for. Thanks for the batch as always, Team Duwang. Sad that we're nearing the end of our journey. You guys have really made the experience amazing...

@Ominous Agreed. The manga itself has been a crazy ride, but being able to share the experience with people here has been amazing. I can't really think of an experience I've had like this, especially for a manga that's not actually actively coming out and finished years ago. I get the feeling...

Godlike Scanlation work here, Team Duwang

@RapidLord You're right, thinking back I also remember when he ordered the book, Baku saw the order notice and said something like "It finally happened again". I guess he loses small bits once a month, but periodically loses it in a great degree, back to his "reset" point.

I agree generally with @299792458 analysis from last chapter. There were plenty of foreshadowing moments to show that Baku understood Leader's condition, and we as a collective talked about it a few times in previous chapters. The fact that Baku was there looking for the Prince Bee, even on...

This certainly isn't the end of the game, I'm pretty sure the author and the characters are leaning far too hard into the "Baku bet on Leader's memory loss" as if that was Baku's only plan. I think that was definitely part of his plan, but the best plans are always multi-layered. We've been...

Oh wait, I only just now re-read last chapter with Yakou's brother. Was this what the "Leader's game that happens once a month" quote was about way back during Hangman? I remember thinking it was very bizarre that they would be having a StL game once a month with the massive amount of conditions...

Page 3 is pretty heartbreaking with the focus on Oofuna, Nobuko, and Baku. Hal having to deal with losing these memories and connections he made is really tragic. Him reviving as messy-hair Hal and the smiles they exchanged as they get ready for the next round though...awesome.

I actually honestly think Baku knows about Hal's memory loss, or at least he's made inferences on it. Everything with him being in the bookstore and finding The Prince Bee both times we've seen was way too coincidental. And if he knows it happens, he might have been able to detect a pattern in it.

oh fuck is THIS what Baku was aiming for?

Wow. The panel of Hal crying is amazing.

I'm also a fan of finally getting into Baku's head and seeing his thought process during the gamble rather than in retrospect. @Lithe Yeah, I think its similar to when Lalo visualized Baku screaming "CALL, RAISE" in Air Poker. I think Baku's train of thought is that if he tries to trick him...

Insane read by Baku. I hadn't even considered that Souichi was leveraging the referees into quieting the clock so he could use his echolocation better. One other thing I've wanted to mention that I thought about while the batch was on break: this manga makes a lot of the idea of "karma". "The...

Thanks Team Duwang for the batch and your hard work as always. I really don't want this manga to end, it's been fun sharing the experience with everyone. @Doomroar Close, but I'm pretty sure Eko was resolved to die, she knew she was never going to get away from the attackers. The gamble was...

Had a thought on how Baku could potentially beat this As an aside, thanks for the great translation work as always. Do we know when this batch will end?

Interesting...I didn't consider that part of his ability to forget/remember things at will and manipulate all parts of himself could include "forgetting" the ability to see and making use of the heightened other senses that would come with it. @Veshv very nice call on the "forgetting how to...
