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 (can't give a specific consistent time of day yet due to IRL bullshit) and will post 1 volume every day until the whole run is posted.
Previous threads:
Volume 1: >>146776390
Volume 2: >>146824912
>>146873557
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.
However, I encourage you to post questions, your opinions and your raw reactions to pages as i'm posting them as long it's not like 3 paragraphs. I would much rather have people do that nonstop then for nobody to post anything at all till I finish
>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; admittedly the series is a little rough untill arc 2 rolls around where all the above really shines; the art in particular.
>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.

>However, I encourage you to post questions, your opinions and your raw reactions to pages as i'm posting them as long it's not like 3 paragraphs. I would much rather have people do that nonstop then for nobody to post anything at all till I finish
I had a lot more fun dumping the first volume because there was more interaction going on compared to Volume 2.

Bari/Gustav is the best early-part battles, and I think the anime did it pretty decent justice
>>146875606
>>146875646
>>146875620
It's certainly up there but I don't know if i'd call it the best.
Kolulu's gotta at least be tied with it due to the FEELS
>>146874016
>>146874060
He looks too old to be a child.
>>146875707
>>146875750
>>146875719
There are more egergious examples later on. I think part of it is that "child" for a demon could still be like 200 years old
in this case I think he just looks weird, though. Bari as >>146875620 mentions, as you'll see, looks like an adult
>>146875809

Worth noting that like Reycom and Kolulu, Fein had extra spells in the TCG and video games.
I'll post the cards showing them once the dump is over, along with Reycoms since I never did his either.

Doesn't Jikerudo work as a projectile after this chapter? I swear that it never auto targets again.
>>146876196
>>146876191
Anon...he only uses thjis spell like twice after this for the entirety of the series
You will see many other "utility" spells in general though, rather then pure offense/defense/augmentation ones.
>>146876240
He uses it so infrequently I don't even remember
>>146875707
By the way, it's spelled curry roux.
>>146876273
You won't see more untill way later anyways, but it always bugs me that "Gigano" class spells are made out to be a huge deal later on and are shown to be very very powerful, yet brago's, (who is an ultra super badass) Gigano spell is only as strong as it is?
>>146876350
I didn't do the editing anon, but when I DO edit the better digital volumes, i'll keep that in mind
>>146875930
A fine reaction image, every one.
>>146876390
I also find it interest brago's arm just heals after being ripped off.
I get that demons can recover from injuries faster and that are more severe, but just reattaching removed limbs seems a bit much.

It would be super cool if at the end of all this we could send Raiku a card at his fan mail address or something like that. I've wanted to send one personally for a while but don't knowm anybody who could translate it into japanese for me.

There;s a link to it in the OP, go back and read it, the end of volume 2 is like the most important moment in the entire series

Well, I know one day in the next week I won't be able to dump due to travel, but other then that, yeah
>>146875255
so do they burn his book?
Hey OP, thanks for dumping this, reading it with other people is way more fun.
>>146890548
Yes, it's on the bottom left of the page you responded to?
Or maybe i'm misunderstanding what you are saying
Oh, yeah, I said i'd post his TCG exclusive spells. Most of these are borrowed from another Demon you'll see later who also uses wind spells. Also, contrary to what the card said, what makes Oru Wigar special is that the blast of wind can be controlled and manipulated as it's being fired, since that's what "Oru" means in spell names. Garu Yuruk is just a powered up version of Uruku from the chapter (Yuruk being the localized name for that spell)
>>146874478
>kid
Here's reycom's TCG/Video game only spells.
Much like how feins's are borrwed from other wind demons, most of these are borrowed from the ice demon brago is fighting in this chapter >>146876027
>>146890850

>>146875379

is the card game fun? I'd imagine it's similar to pokemon tcg
Also how is the videogame?
>>146882140
Thanks again OP!
Thanks OP. I've already read the entire manga, but I loved doing it again. I might read it all over again.
>>146891783
>is the card game fun? I'd imagine it's similar to pokemon tcg
I never had anybody else to play with it enough to really comment, but based on what I did say, i'd say it's not as good as any other TCG you could probaly think of.
>Also how is the videogame?
Typical anime tie in fighting game. Not great, but the novelty of playing as the characters makes ithe otherways medicore mechanics more pallatable.
The GBA electric arena game I thought was the best one; sadly none of it's sequels came out in the US
>>146877095
Oh my fuck
>>146891783
>Also how is the videogame?
As the only one who read the manuals, nobody else knew how to use counter attacks on the PS2 game. Loved teleporting behind people with Zeon.
>>146877876
>but you're 10 years too early trying to defeat me!!
I don't get it, is he implying he's going to get weaker with time? Or is it just because the battle is taking place now?
Either way, '10 years too late' would make more sense as a common saying.
>>146892400>Mfw zeon never gets redeemed in the anime
Also is somebody going through these threads and making reaction images out of all the good panels?
>>146892602
He's saying "you'd need another 10 years of expierence to even stand a chance"
>>146892400
>>146892726
>ZeonI loved Zeon in the manga, and even more, I love it when Gash eventually learns how to use his clothes like Zeon can. I thought that was even neater then most of his spells.
It's a shame Gash never learned how to use his spells with his hands like Zeon rather then just his mouth though, but I guess that's just an underdog handicap to make it more interesting.
>>146879570
I'm liking how this manga handles lose battles.
The humans obviously are dragged into this war and is taking advantage of that to make the MCs interact with different types of people, some bad and some good, and establish the bases of their motivations for future arcs.
So this is a pretty good introduction arc overall.
>>146893090
make sure you watch the anime version too, see >>146880776
>>146892888
I think him using his mouth for spells is a genetic/innate thing, not a skill thing.
