HSDK Battle 534 Released

The only thing I don't like about Miu is that "protect" stuff.  

Besides the cliffhanger, all I can say that it's about to go down!

On another note, a near impossible scenario. What if Sougetsu became so drunk that he messes up OSNF's entire plan...and on purpose?

Spoiler

Wow, Shigure's flirting with Kenichi again.

That shot of the four Ryozanpaku masters looks even better when both pages are put together. I hope someone like HikariNoGiri colors it.

The OSNF looked great in the helicopter. I can't wait to see their confrontation with Ryozanpaku. I like how Saiga, Ogata, and Mikumo are sitting next to each other.

So, either Executioner Blade will back OSNF or they'll attack Ryozanpaku. Shigure's going to need backup if the latter happens. They should've contacted James Shiba and other masters like him. I'm sure they'll show up anyway.

And Kenichi talking about people being reckless after what he did at the amusement park.

I agree with all you jest said.

If the Executioner Blade does show up, we might get to see the YOMI weapons division.

lol great chapter

Great chapter in so many ways. Shigure is so moe. Sigh...

I have a hunch that Matsuena uses Kenichi as a subtle commentary / jab on the Japanese police force...

The Ryozanpaku masters look so badass and confident. Somehow I believe that my theory before is true, and they indeed had held back even in the previous fights, with Akisame and Ma holding back a lot....

  •  
  • that sounds like a good point! i mean they are not called the histories strongest by accident! Lets hope we dont get the stupid shock value scenarios  where one of the masters gets killed in like one hit or something stupid like that!
  •  

The only thing I don't like about Miu is that "protect" stuff.  

 thats just to give kenichi some confidence so he does not start crying or doing anything stupid like trying to go help.  And you gotta admit what shigure said was very cute and i think it shows that she likes kenichi and miu has some competition which is awesome!

I really liked this chapter. The masters going on the offensive against the OSNF hopefully insures really good chapters for the next few months for us. I can't wait for the confrontation.

 I also can't help but get the feeling that Kenichi is going to end up saving all of them sometime during this arc.

Also... Kensei lol.

My best bet is that the YOMI pupils are currently off to attack Ryozanpaku.

They will probably be accompanied by the weapons "glasses guy", since he's a natural opponent for Shigure. While he is keeping Shigure busy, the pupils - perhaps supported by the weapons team - can launch their attack.

The Valkyrie might actually be useful for once in this situation, they're sort of like Ryozanpaku's own "weapons team".

Kenichi will of course get help from the Shinpaku alliance, but perhaps also from a few "unexpected" persons. There are still a number of 'students' outside Ryozanpaku who might want to help Kenichi:

- Renka

- Radin Tidat Jihan

- Danki Kugatachi (weapon's master & Freya's uncle - not unlikely since he's a weapons user as well)

- Shinnosuke Tsuji (probably not going to happen though)

Plus of course Miu, Ryuto and Rimi. And you never know if Tanimoto will switch sides at one point.

Add to that the current members of Shinpaku and you got a pretty strong team:

- Kenichi

- Miu

- Ryuto

- Takeda

- Siegfried

- Rimi

- Freya

- Kisara

- Thor

- Ukita (weakest link I'd say - but at least he has Shiratori to protect him x-D )

- Possible backup from: Renka, Jihan, Denka, Shinnosuke (who really knows?)

So I guess we may get something like this:

1. Glasses guy versus Shigure

2. Yomi weapons team vs. Freya + Danki + Valkyries (+ perhaps the weapon's master with the weird hairstyle)

3. Yomi pupils vs. Shinpaku pupils + possible backup (for example Renka or Jihan Deus Ex Machina style)

well... do you guys know why we had to wait so long for this chapter ? its been over 2 weeks or so >.>

and as a result we got 15 pages of manga coz am not counting start pages, am kida disappointed this time :x

True that 4 masters standing is epic but i dont think they are much stronger than masters they are goin to fight with , they are equally strong like we have seen before (am also afraid this jujitsu OSNF chick is overpowered as fuk )

@up  , Rimi joined shinpaku ? did i miss something ?^^

Lookin forward to more great chapters

The Shinpaku members are

Kenichi

Miu

Renka

Takeda

Ukita

Freya

Siegfrid

Thor

and Shiratori

that fight the back up will probably be this

The Valkyries

Jihan

Ryuto

Rimi

Naoki

Genson

and Shokatsu.

As for backup for the masters

Danki

Taiki

James

and Ryou

thats all I can think of.

Rimi hasn't joined the Shinpaku Alliance, but since she's not a member of YOMI anymore she's not considered their enemy. She doesn't like Miu or Kenichi, so I don't think she'd like the Shinpaku Alliance, either. I think she'd be willing to help if Ryuto wants to. Or maybe he can convince her that they aren't that bad.

@Red Duel There's also Sai Kagerou. I don't think he's a member of Yami anymore, so he might help.

Thanks I just couldn't think and no Sai Kagerou is not a member of Yami anymore he left so that Shigure would give him his sword back.

Another back up master would be grandpa Kousaka, the adoptive father who raised Shigure.

But what I do want to see the most is Shinnosuke Tsuji pulling another surprise upgrade of his ability

Too bad that grandpa has died.

Anyway that reminds me of something, what about Tsuji's master

yo @Mizume , thats the good point with this master , seems like we have forgot about possible backup of other masters like the one u showed or james shiba like someone upper already said and so on , and ofc mostlikely our ryo bosses ill need little help i wonder if this bear-forest guy would join their ally forces.

Actually, the fight isn't as one-sided as it seems, unless the armed group joins the fray too.

I have a hunch that Agaard and Hongo will not fight, since their personality is not such that they will ever pick a fight with Apachai and Sasaki unless on honorable and friendly term (but they will still fight to the death on honorable and friendly term, of course).

Sougetsu is not the sort that cares particularly about honor, but he also no longer has a particular grudge against Kensei.

So we have 4 vs. 4, including the One Shadow (who will most likely be where Akisame shows 100% strength and still lose barely).

Wow, Shigure's flirting with Kenichi again.

Best part right there. 

I don't think anyone will fight. They're probably going to watch OSNF give their announcement.

OMG WW3...?

I don't even know what the point is anymore. The OSNF have vast political and economic support already world over so I am curious to know what they will be trying to accomplish with the so called Eternal Sunset. World Domination w/ the martial arts? Who has time for that?

My favorite part was Apachai crushing Kenichi's shoulder. :x

I also disliked the protecting Miu stuff.

Major respect for the inspector guy. Not enough to remember his name though.
