So many bad flags. It seems as though we all know she's cruising for a loss, but the question is, what's the play? The brother said to himself, no, don't, her real aim is... , and then stopped there. He's already figured out the true purpose of this challenge, whatever it is.

Sorry little sister, but you've already fallen into the trap by accepting.

Man, reading this makes me want to go back and reread Gamble Fish. There's something about the Japanese genre of "the world revolves around everyone taking this one thing incredibly seriously" that always gets me interested. It used to be primarily a shonen trope, like with Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh, but these days, more and more it's being used with serious and dark manga. It's a fun change of pace.

I've had the mods flag me in the past for not using spoilers on events or facts that happened in previous chapters and/or the literal chapter I was commenting on, so I'm putting spoilers just in case.

Yeah, I will admit that the writing of this plot isn't exactly the best or most exciting. With all the foreshadowing and the specific relationships and personalities of the main characters, it's fairly obvious what's about to happen.

[ul]
Hint 1: Guren plays seriously and gets mad when people target his sister.
Hint 2: Guren, an artificially-engineered player, has always won in present-day challenges, and he is known as a legend in the underworld.
Hint 3: Guren wants to leave behind his dark past, but various people keep forcing him to play seriously.
Hint 4: Mizuha is just like Guren, artificially engineered to win.
Hint 5: Mizuha explicitly wants to crush Karen so that Guren will dominate her like he did back then.
Hint 6: Guren told Mizuha that the reason he won was because he (unlike her) was "not human" and thus not affected by human emotion or instinct.
Hint 7: Guren says that Mizuha hasn't changed from back then and is still "gazing at a nightmare", but she replies that she "is living a happy dream". (A blatant flag that something HAS changed about her)
Hint 8: Guren himself tried to stop Karen from accepting the duel.
Hint 9: Guren's eyes can't read Mizuha.
Hint 10: "If Karen gets flustered, the game will be set."
[/ul]

With all of this set-up, it'd be pretty difficult for the author to add some sort of twist or change the fate of the match without contradicting himself/herself.
The fate of this match is already set; what really matters is the AFTERMATH.

I don’t care what’s going on but that masochist face is great

@Kikaibaka I mean, this was clearly set for MC to go God mode on these brats, so we already know how it plays for the little sister.

I see this going 1 of 2 ways. Sis wins and the fixation broadens to both siblings or sis loses and big bro has to step up and fix the mess.

Welp, she's still hot, and still crazy. Yup, I'm still down.

Really hope the next chapter just skips the game and goes straight to sis losing with a shocked face and Guren going all -Limitless- mode.
