I wonder who the mysterious bandana is now that kaji is revealed to be off the set.

 

[LuffyKun]

Welcome back and thanks for the Chapter

The part with the glass mirrors and the last panel was badass

 

[Hellsau]

@the9813 Kaji is the bandana guy. The Kaji scenes were flashbacks, showing that Baku had planned in advance and had bought out the company, and just made a huge profit off one of the criminals.

@hellsau on page 4 kaji is watching the show in the present

edit: nevermind just reread it seems like that was in the past

 

[belkrax]

Oh nice I was getting thirsty for a chapter. The glass page was great.

Given Midara reaction im guessing one of the participants will just try to overpower everyone and access the Master Room.

 

[rennov]

Woh, welcome back team Duwang. Another triple layered trap that Baku has prepared in advance.

Hmmm... Sometimes I wonder. Do we really need to protect our reputation if we have money as much as 50 billion yen?

Just give up since beginning, n try to bail when u r in the jail with money or something.

 

[Ominous]

Except for Mii-chan

Haaaaaa...

 

[the9813]

Ah, it faded black to white from a mid page flashback. So what baku did was make him pay 50 billion for a company that literally has no value to him?

 

[Lithe]

Page 16....fuckin' A.

I don't really care for when the story plays around with flashbacks unclearly like that, but typical Usogui hype neutralizes it for me.

I wonder who's coming for Midara to look that serious. I love it when this series introduces new fighting juggernauts.

@the9813 I believe so. Ultimately, it seems that Baku essentially facilitated the sale of Shuei News' ownership of Shuei TV stock to whatever bank he got the loan from. Previous owners of Shuei News would have 35 billion from Baku that he borrowed from the bank, the bank would have the TV stock, and Baku would have whatever is leftover from Shuei News that he then sold for 50 billion to Matsuyama.

 

[Doomroar]

@Ominous Mii-chan is so wild that no one controls her!

@Lithe So Baku got a loan of at least 35 billion, that he paid immediatelly using the stocks of Shuei TV, then Baku sold his stocks of Shuei News for 50 billion, and that's the money he earned? meaning that before this guy bough those stocks Baku had made no money or was even in the red?

 

[Valkit]

lol "except for mii chan"

 

[RangoBongo]

page 16 looks slick

 

[TheChosenFailure]

Is Midara finally interested in the game?

This is why Usogui isn't more popular, looks like the author has a problem with communicating time. He doesn't even use the blackening in the spaces between the panels (that has to have a name, idk)

I think it's because of one key to magic tricks and scams in general (wich is the core of the main theme, "lies"), that of playing with the moment you tell the lie so the perception of the scammed is at it's lowest.

Nope, he just knows someone's going to try and take over the master room by force. I don't know why he should protect it though.
