Storytime: Konjiki no Gash!! AKA Zatch Bell

Continuing my dump of Gash bell.

Gash bell is a Shonen action/comedy series by Makoto Raiku. The basic plot premise is that there are 100 kids from the demon world who come into the normal world to fight until only 1 is left standing, who is crowned king;

I'll be making a thread every day (Usually around 5pm est, but this week i'm on a wonky schedule) and will post 1 volume every day until the whole run is posted.

Previous threads:
Volume 1: >>146776390
>>
>>146824912

Please refrain from making lengthy posts till I finish the volume in each thread, and don't post images at all till then, so the image limit isn't hit till i'm done.

>FAQ:

>Why should I be interested?
It has really fantastic art, good humor, great tactical fight's with great choreography and is really excellent at utilizing both positive and negative emotions for FEELS; but admittedly is a little rough for the first few volumes before the above really shines.

>Where are your scans from?
NULL's release. their site is here: http://www.n-u-l-l.net/ and they can also be found on bato.to and mangasaurus. EBJ has superior digital volumes for sale on their site, but they are japanese only, I'll be buying and ripping them eventually. There's also some really amazing quality Portuguese scans, but only for like 20 chapters halfway into the series, and, you know, aren't in english

>Isn't Zatch bell that kiddy pokemon ripoff?
You probably saw the localized anime. The anime is pretty not great, and the localization is fucking terrible. The manga is way better, but even it admittedly starts out only above average untill it gets into the second arc.

It's the sort of art quality that becomes much more common later on into the series

I like Raikou's art. It's rough but has a certain character. Although some shots could do a bit with anatomy
>>
>>146825633
I was talking about this spell earlier, people like to "faithfully" translate it as Gurabirei but the official localized name of Gravirei is obviously how it was indended to be read.
>>
>>146825692

>>146825683
It gets a lot cleaner and better drawn the further into the series you get.

The two page spreads in the Ancient Mamodo Arc onwards are fucking breaktaking. I'd actually say the art is the best thing about the series once we get to where it's gud

>>146826411

While I really like the setup of this fight with it being a 3 way battle between Gash/Kiyo, Brago/Sherry, and Gofure and whatever his human is called, I really dislike this part because it's just

>Our weaker attack is going to win now because PLOT

Thankfully this doesn't happen that much after this and the further in we get the more the fights are going to be based in strategy.

>>146826543
Not sure why the translators for this release call Brago "Burago" here and in >>146825121 when other scans that don't use the localized names still use "Brago"

Especially since when he shows up again, they just switch to Brago anyways
>>
>>146826587
>>
>>146826617
I hope you fags are ready for some filler because that's what this chapter is!
>>
>>146826661
Also, I don't think Homeostasis means what Raiku thinks it means.

Pretty sure it refers to automated body processes for like keeping yourself in the right temperature range and shit
>>
>>146826005
I never got this.
How different are their spells on Earth and in the mamodo world? Even without Bao Gash should be still pretty average.
>>
Is Kiyo ever shirtless?
>>
>>146826709
>>
>>146826757

>>146826750
not sure I understand your point? Also spoilers

>>146826753
A few times I think?
>>
>>146826840
>>
>>146826840
Gash is always said to have been at the bottom of the class but all of his spells are pretty good.
>>
>>146826840
Do you recall what situations were those?

Anything apart from normal beach stuff?
>>
>>146826872
>>
>>146826930

>>146826879
Even though it's explicitly said later on that in the demon world they can use their spells themselves, I don't think that means back in the demon world, they had ACCESS to all their spells

For Gash, and I assume Tio and Kanchome and other ""weak"" demons, back in the demon world they only were able to use their basic spells as well.


>>146826914
The only time I recal it for sure is a spring break chapter where he goes swimming, but i'm sure it happens a few other times
>>
>>146827019

>>146827019
Ok, I'll check around these threads, I hope he was shirtless wearing pants at least once.
>>
Early morning bump.
>>
>>146826879
iirc later on they talk about him basically going unconscious every time he tried to cast his spells even if just for the duration of it, and everyone mocking him for it. And he only showed his most basic spell in the flashbacks, he may not have actually had any others.

That would normally be a valid explanation but it's not like Sherry and Brago are any less loyal to each other then Gash and Kiyo are

I always found that this series was so good at getting these "Fuck yeah" moments of badassery.
>>
>>146834313
If you recall back to last volume, right before Gofure's (the dog) book owner used the spell to transform him into the rock monster, the dog was wimpering and and leaning on gash.

It's never been said anywhere explictly but the implication there is like with Kolulu, his spells unwillingly cause him to get violent.

Oh, it's not another page, but something else to note is Kolulu, like Reycom from last volume, has extra spells in the games and TCG

Interestingly, in the games, Geo la Zerudo is offensive, coming out of the ground around enemies, not defensive.

>>146826543
You know, i always thought it was odd that Gash's book was red. Especially since all his spells are yellow colour and even his appearance has no red in it.

Major spoiler:
I know his book does eventually turn gold, but still, why initially red?

Aren't most other book colours matching their Mamodo appearances and abilities?

A good amount are, but a pretty big minority of them don't.

>>146833282
Would she have survived the famous Japanese Truck if Shiori didn't activate Zeruku?
>>
>>146834499
;_;
>>
>>146843433
Maybe. Demon kids, even """ weaker""" ones around her size like gash seem to have a superhuman level of strength and endurance relative to their size even without spells

She'd be pretty badly hurt, in any case
>>
>>146843433
getting hit by a car is one thing, if the trunk got her, she'd be pulled under then definitely get flattened by the tires and weight of the truck.

>>146841950
The colors are mostly just for compliments/matching of the mamodos colors themselves.

One of the main things is that the main group of friend's books were Red, Salmon, Yellow, and Whatever Tia's redish book was. Mainly meant to all be around the same color, just for flavor.
