The snake seems to be very bad at fighting. I'm not sure why it decided to try and shield Tetra with his head, when the laser attack had shown multiple times it could just pierce right through its flesh, instead of just dodging. It could have just lowered the section of its body where Tetra was to avoid the attack. I mean, it's basically what he did, but he also moved his head in the trajectory of the blast at the same time. Good thing it just tanked a lobotomy with seemingly little impact.

We've been in Snake vs Robot Namek for so long that I've actually forgotten what this story was even about lmao. Still, took Ren long enough to think of electricity.
I also felt that way, and I feel like the chapter had too many pages for what it was trying to convey (why the spiel on human emotions being fascinating for spirits right in the middle of the fight? Was the miming miscommunication with the cat spirit truly necessary?), but it hasn't even been that long since the fight started. I mean, it only started last chapter. It's just that it's been months between releases.

It has been 6 chapters since this arc started and it has been been a third of the total number of chapters.

I'm hoping the fight will be completed next chapter, and they can just say their goodbyes and get back home for the next arc in the same chapter.

I'd like to know where this robot thing popped out from, but I don't think Ren has any appetite for a longer adventure here or dealing with more things as dangerous as that. The spirits might investigate it further and inform Tetra, but since the thing appears to have come from outside I'm not really sure they'll find anything unless they actually venture out, which I assume they won't. It feels really odd to throw in a robot at this stage, when it seems like it's unlikely we'll learn more about its origins until much later, but maybe I'm wrong.

Man those years in a kids body really made him super retarded. I guess he completely forgot about all the shit he learned when he was an adult in his previous life. Or maybe he never learned any at all and only remembers math because thats all he ever worked on as an adult.

Remember that this snake is a pacifist and didn't even know that the machine was not a human. It is clearly just a gentle giant that never had to fight before.

Yeah! Electricity is usually for comedy relief, but very dangerous when mixing with boze.
