I really wasn't expecting her to go and just murder the girl she carried immediately! I thought she would go after one of the others considering she put in effort to make sure the girl survived and gave her hope but I guess it's just that kind of game

YuukixKinko shippers in shambles rn

Thanks for the translation!

Spoiler

I believe this series is entirely episodic and no characters besides Yuuki carry over between arcs, but I could be misremembering

Okay, another yuri shipping, but royal games shipping? Hah, not the easiest road lmao. Only BL shipping in Shonen Jump shonens is more unpromising.

I'm not sure there are any significant characters other than the MC, but this is clearly not a episodic lmao.

Thanks for the chapter

and this is why you shouldn't start having character development right before the game end, that is asking to be kill.

Are there really enough English volumes to make that judgment?

 

[onekele]

I thought she was cooking up something... 😭😭😭

 

[SonicDisgaea98]

So she acts nice but she really is just an evil b*tch, considering that she actively wants to earn her money by playing games that force her to cause other people to die. In a single panel, she managed to make me hate her.

 

[Lightbrand]

Damn so they could've just left her and went up with minimal body chopped and she would still be alive just trapped down there until stage hand comes in and kills her.

Wouldn't those weapons be heavier than their legs?

 

[thrOwO]

Most weapons are surprisingly light

 

[ScryedParadox]

She chose the Katana for that... Which is a bad option for dismemberment. That's a slashing weapon sure, but cleanly cutting through bones would require a far more heavy weapon, like an executioner's sword, for someone who's lacking muscle like her. There's only so much that the sharpness of a weapon can do. If you can't cut through a Gambison with a Katana, what makes you think you can cleanly cut through bones? That gaudy double headed axe would've been a better option. We can just assume that somehow the modification to their bodies also modified their bones to be easily cut and broken.

Well either way. I'm happy to see that Momono survived. And I'm not surprised she just straight up murdered whoever was closest and convenient to kill, no morals about it, just gaming it out. She already won more than a dozen games, and while she did say this was a cooperative game, it indicates she's familiar with all sorts of games. It turning from PVE to PVP probably just switched gears in her head, that's all.

...

Basically girl is a psychopath.

Incorrect, She's not in it for the money, She's in it because it makes her feel.

Thats just as bad.

Thank you for the translation.

Kinko was the best girl of the bunch it's so sad to see her go
She was selfless, felt guilt, cared the most about others, and she didn't even really have a chance to enjoy her life as she has no goals to think of when asked.

If yuki had stronger emotions I feel she would have killed Beniya and I would have supported that.
I also like that in the anime it seemed she had more hesitation/thought in her when she was about to kill Kinko. It would be nice to see her character develop stronger emotions sometime in the future and maybe even have a callback to Kinko

Ig it's not so bad as she was definitely depressed and felt guilt from her father and may have used this game partly as an excuse to die.
