I don't get the re-enter thing. How it work.. Do it really exist ?
Saw it once in a soccer manga, they need to win more match after a lost. But the match they lose in the first place is special match and the winner go straight to the final, so they just lost the vip ticket and need to win every match like regular, or that is what i remember. Read it years ago

Losers' brackets are a thing in most fighting game tournaments. When you lose once, you fall off the main bracket and enter the losers' one, and the losers' bracket usually allows one player to re-enter the main bracket at some point. I'm not really that familiar with them so I can't tell how they are exactly used normally, but they do exist to give players a second chance.

Yup, called it. Literally called it in previous chapter's discussion - double elimination tournament.

@Bente_Koini

Also they're pretty hype when someone from loser's bracket wins the tournament, as it meant he could've gotten one unlucky matchup and otherwise was a solid player to begin with.

Evil spirit? Was she "possessed" that night? Author tends to always incorporate spoopy elements in his works 🤣

@CommieJohnTeh It relates to a japanese belief about talisman on the back of frames on the room cursing people. She has shown a few times in the series, included the previous night, that she follows that superstition and fear it.

@Tcof I played darts and there it’s a common thing, so I believe it can be in videogame tournaments too

Everybody basically have two lives.

as seen above, Top 8 consist of 4 people in Winners (up) and 4 in Losers (down).
those who lose in Semi Finals (up) will go to [L] Quarter Finals (down) they fight it up to get to Losers Final (down).
the loser from Winners Final (up) will go to Losers Final (down) right away and the winner from that go to the Grand Finals.
the one who go to Grand Finals from the Losers bracket need to win twice, if it first-to-3 the Winner only need to win 3 times while the Loser need to win like 3x2 times (Losers winning the first set is basically them sending the Winners to a Losers status).

@Tcof an indepth analysis on this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGoIIV55hEc

TL;DW basically, it's a second chance for people who lost. Though it's going to be much tougher because people in the losers' bracket have more matches to fight, and that the top in the losers' bracket would have to win twice against the one in the winners' while the winners' side only needs to beat the top of the losers' once to become champion.

God, I hate Hidaka. Not because she's the love rival but more on how she treats Haruo like shit.

You're really churning these out now, thanks!

Also, like, I think the author genuinely has no idea how tournaments work. Out of all the people who lost in the "group stage" (which was itself seemingly single-elimination), exactly one person was allowed to "reenter" from the "loser's bracket"?

Edit at @MawMaw :

That's image you linked is how a real bracket works. In that real double-elimination bracket, Akira would be stuck in "the loser's bracket" until the grand finals of the entire tournament. The "loser's finals" would be a fight between her and the *loser* of the "winner's finals", before the grand finals happened (and if the winner of the winner's finals lost in the first match of the grand finals, they'd essentially get a do-over).

In *this* bracket, Oono seems to have "won her way out of the loser's bracket" among all people who lost in the entire group stage, a concept that makes no sense at all. In the first place, the brackets were labeled A through L for 12 entries, which means she is the... 13th entry? Or are there actually 4 people who got "out of the loser's bracket" for 16 entries? Either way, it's nonsense.

I am so happy that Oono is also seeing the "gaming ghosts" just as Haruo.
And I am shocked that she lost on time against the cheater Hidaka. Jesuschrist she had already lost.

Will we have to wait another 4 months for next chapter????

Oh baby, keep looking at me like I’m filth!!!
I think overtime Haruo ended up developing quite the Oujou-sama fetish

@codetaku It didn't say only one re-entered. It said she was the last one who re-entered, which implies there were others who weren't the last.
