Bouryoku Banzai - Ch. 41 - Ripple

Wait what the fuck? This isn't an illegal darkweb death game? You're actually concerned about liability and being allowed to continue the show? Lmfao that's gotta be the last believable thing about the series so far. If this was a publicly known corporation and not some fake company behind dozen proxies and layers of shell corporations this would have shut down in a day. It's a plot contrivance that nobody has actually died yet.

Doesn't it make it seem like she wants him to stick around for the training?
Like she's training him with a purpose instead of doing it just because?

Carrot and stick. And as for what her actual motivations are, $10 says it's something silly like she wants to train him up so that she can finally have an entertaining 1-on-1 with a worthy opponent.

guess the mc is going to fight him soon

Wait a second, so it is just okay to broadcast no holds barred fights and stabbings? Nobody cares huh?

Listen buddy. If it got me a baddie secretary like Miss Shiratori, I would stage three broadcast fight clubs with complex rules and a few pages of legal wrangling to describe why they aren't immediately illegal and shut down.

It's Japan if it wasn't someone pirating Nintendo games they don't care

People have a lot of problems with this manga but I honestly don’t even care. Its so fun! The characters are unbelievably entertaining which is the most important part for me. Saw someone compare this to solo levelling but is much better than solo levelling. This series is much more fun.

Something doesn't feel right when the artist draws Setsuna in uniform. The shoulder width and proportions look off. Nailed it with the home casual clothing though.

I think the difference is she's got her arms behind her back in both those shots whereas for the school scenes she has her hands on her hips. Depending on your shoulders that can make a big difference

He hasn't met walking plot armor yet.

And if it’s one thing our boy has its plot armor

 

[AnimationDude]

So basically:
Assistant: "sir we can't brutalize / murder people on-air, there are laws, we're going to get shut down and lose everything."
Producer guy: "Wow! It's that bad? That means our show is SO MUCH BETTER THAN I THOUGHT!"

Uh, no, guy, you need to listen. It's already crazy they weren't shut down with the knife fights.
If the characters admit that they're gonna get shutdown because of the exceseive violence, then it better happen.

Bro that would GENUINELY be the funniest way to end this arc. Authorities think it’s all staged until one guy ends up, breaking his nondisclosure agreement and snitching left n right, and just before a winner is decided the Police fucking raid this but jobs House😂

This Nintendo stray is so fuckin random but so damn funny😭

 

[AnimationDude]

Usually I can convince myself " hey it's fantasy" but for some reason this manga just feels completely implausible, it kills any kind of immersion.

If it helps, do what I do and label this series a guilty pleasure. Makes it easier to put up with the . . . meh quality

I can here exactly to ask this lol. Also, how is any of this being filmed and broadcast? I know I shouldn't be questioning the logic in a manga like this, but that was my first thought when they showed the classmates watching it. Did they mention the filming in a previous chapter and I just forgot it?
Also when do we get to the part where the show creator gets punched in the face?

 

[ConS3rved]

Goddamn. MC is not like the rest of "Them" Romace comedy Protagonist where they go Girly mode after getting cuddled. Well maybe it's because Mc is already messed up in the head and just don't care anymore. But him Hugging back the baddie like a body pillow, I pray for a time like this🛐

But I already got so many under that category xD

LOL you and me both my friend

 

[DPLBatoDex]

I was waylaid by personal matters, so I apologize for the lateness of my reply to this chapter when it was new.

So besides the cuddling scene, we do learn in this chapter that it is Spring/Early Summer right now in the world of this story, which is why we saw Setsuna in her Summer uniform in Chapter 39, giving an answer to my post in the Chapter 39 discussion.

I TOLD YOU THE CUDDLE REWARD WOULD HAPPEN TO HELP HIM HEAL AND RECOVER. I AM A PROPHET.

It's so nice to see that Setsuna DOES have a soft side after all. I thought she would do whatever it takes to make sure Akita could recover and I wasn't wrong. She isn't above showing affection, as twisted as she may be and as calculated it might've been. I like how comically strict she is too with refusing to let the other girls in the class drag him away to hangout in place of his training, didn't know she has this adorable cat-like side to her.
