Alright, another character profile. Another completely unrecognizable Kaiou.
Poem of the week: An Irish Airman foresees his Death by W. B. Yeats!
"I know that I shall meet my fate
Somewhere among the clouds above;
Those that I fight I do not hate
Those that I guard I do not love;
My country is Kiltartan Cross,
My countrymen Kiltartan’s poor,
No likely end could bring them loss
Or leave them happier than before.
Nor law, nor duty bade me fight,
Nor public man, nor cheering crowds,
A lonely impulse of delight
Drove to this tumult in the clouds;
I balanced all, brought all to mind,
The years to come seemed waste of breath,
A waste of breath the years behind
In balance with this life, this death."
-Yeats, 1919

Very sorry that we don't have Kenjin out yet. I don't know what's wrong/why they aren't publishing the chapter(s) yet. We should have at least chapter 1 released, but we don't and for that, I apologize.

End chapter.
A bizarre way of going about the logic involving cutting Pickle, right? I think I *get it*, but it's still quite strange, even for Itagaki.
>>
Oh yeah, and Dou 99 is out. Forgot that we did that. We'll probably have 100 out on Monday or something, but I have absolutely no idea beyond that.
http://spinybackmanga.com/?manga=Baki+Dou&chapter=Chapter+099+Pickle
I wish I could say that I knew progress would speed up in general on the Baki projects, but I can't seem to get anything going the right way. Everybody is either on at bad hours or simply not on when I might need them. If you think you can help with Baki and/or Tough material and would like to help, please volunteer. I'm honestly running out of steam.
>>
Well, this sucks. I usually get at least 2 replies to one of these. This one took four times as long because of bizarre sentences and phrasings, and I'm not getting any bites. Ho-hum.
>>
Musashi is fucking weird.

fuck musashi, he set the bar far too high.

>>144872573
Well desu this fight just isn't that interesting to some people,we already had a fight between Musashi and Pickle and even though i understand that Musashi is Itagaki's way of getting rid of Pickle this is just boring.
I just want to see Memetobe fight Pickle already so we can get it over with this arc,this whole thing makes no sense and is full of asspulls.
>>
>>144873574
I'm in complete agreement with that, but there's at least material to discuss. Why do Pickle's muscles/tissue/whatever go soft right before maximum impact? Do the other fighters have that problem? How did Musashi find out? So on and so forth.
>>
>>144873704
I'm pretty sure Musashi's muscles going soft was never mentioned previously,i expect Itagaki to explain it with some bullshit bakiscience though.
At this point i have no fucking clue what Itagaki's thinking,is Musashi even going to fight Baki/Yujiro or he's only being set up to lose to Memetobe?
>>
>>144873932
I honestly think Musashi might be decommissioned here for a while. He's not stopping Pickle's attack here at all, he's just cutting him while Pickle is attacking. Musashi could easily leave this fight really fucked up, but still the "winner". That'd give us some breathing time; time to not focus purely on him and return to the other characters.
>>
>>144873704
I think he means how your body relaxes just before you do something like that if youre experienced .
>>
>>144876178
but if that was the case, he'd cut him right as he began his motion, not right before impact.
>>
>>144876205
Exactly what I meant: Baki does the whole 'fluid' or whatever thing - which I'm assuming can be equated to tofu here - before moving. Pickle seems to be doing it during his movement, for no clear reason. Though I get the impression that it's going to be a 'natural/primordial biological response'; possibly similar to Kaku's training to not have the 'shock reaction' or whatever that prevents him from breaking his own shit.
>>
>>144876340
Not during the entire movement either, otherwise the previous hits would have worked. Whatever it is, it happens only the moment before impact and not at any other moment.
>>
>>144876452
I meant 'in his movement' in that he's still moving when it happens; it's not before or after. Nonspecific. Language sucks.

>That'd give us some breathing time
If only, I want off this Musashitrain.
Then again, you might have a point, if Memetobe was worried about Ogre but didn't do much for Pickle, despite his claims of " I couldn't protect him", maybe Itagaki is setting up something.
Who knows, I just want best boy back, fucking hell.
>>
>>144876529
I'm pretty sure he's setting up a big twist here. Remember how the prisoner arc was structured like a straightforward 5 boss fight but got off the rails really quick?
This might happen here with musashi losing, then some new crop of resurrected guys showing up, or even just new characters.
>>
>>144876736
>then some new crop of resurrected guys showing up
If they do this they can't not resurrect Retsu (try saying that out loud).
>>
>>144876529
I know everybody didn't get the message, so I say it again here: I got the 'I can't protect him' line a little wrong because of the slurry way Motobe said it. Arstavial corrected me, credit is due to him. Motobe says something closer to the effect of: "I totally forgot about you. Though, I can't choose to not protect you now, can I?"
So he's still not really willing to 'protect' Pickle, but he'll probably try at some point. Motobe always talks like a weirdo, so I refuse to accept full fault for that. Regardless, my sincerest apologies for misleading you all. If I might repay you, speak now.
>>
Well?
>>
>>144877672
Doppo resigned and Katsumi took over as the head. Doppo has no real association with the Shinshinkai anymore beyond legacy.
>>
>>144877980
But they didn't close down the school.
>>
>>144872573
Thanks for translating dude, regardless of how angry Musashi makes me.
>>
>>144878630
Yeah, cus Natsue, Katsumi, Katou etc convinced him not to close it. IIRC, it's more of a drawn-out conversation in the manga. When we get there... when we get there.
>>
>>144877046
Ressurecting Retsu would make all this bullshit with Musashi even more retarded than it already is.
>all the build-up before their fight
>Memetobe saying he'll protect Yuujiro and Baki
But if they're going full fantasy with it then they might as well ressurect the original Hanmas from the Levant or at least Yuichiro.
>>
>>144879492
Leave retsu dead please
Let that boy rest
