WTF are those mini-lightsaber things? Man, looks like things are getting freaky up in there. Love Bob's samurai hair-do though. Really happy to see Masataka get more face time. :)

I think those might be like those spear things from vol 10. I really wish they didn't bring in this weird technology. I preferred the simpe fighting.

Whoa. I really want to see how this fight turns out, especially since we get to see how much Bob has improved. And I wish he does too! But those lightsabers..! Damn, I think it's a bit too extreme already. Let's just wait and see how this turns out.

The spears from volume 10 were, as far as I could tell (and based on the terminology) just electrified poles. They weren't collapsable blades of light...

I won't complain too much - TJTG already has "magic". :)

I looked at the news page and it looks like volume 12 will come with a figure also, I think, the bablefish translation was really confusing. The girl really has odd weapons she has a normal knife and then a long snake she wraps around her leg.

Colour pages signify one thing: this chapter is the beginning of a new tanko volume. And that means that volume 11 will cover up to Fight 69.

As for the lightsabres, they're an integral part of the "young vs old" dynamic. They're supposed to indicate how the younger generation chose to embrace technology and allow it to pervert them instead of developing their skills and powers from within, as the older generation did.

The girl really has odd weapons she has a normal knife and then a long snake she wraps around her leg.
I think that came out sounding much dirtier than was intended. Or maybe it's just me... :twisted:

hehe, calm down banorac. I never was a fan of starwars. I really hate that starwars has had such an impact we can't associate them as anything else but lightsabers. Damn you! George Lucas. I could have went without starwars in pop culture. Sure it helps the imaginations but we start seeing the "oh don't bother! technology will do it for us" crap that makes us have false security.

::disclaimer:: please do not be offended by anything I just said. :twisted: have a nice day!

:D

I just don't like the futuristic stuff, I liked the first volumes better, because it was about, well you know, fighting and technique...

Now it's about George Lucas trying to fit in a skimp suit :evil: :shock:

Or is she some other girl that Bob and Masataka are fighting?

Yes, she is shown in the circle of "F" members back when they visit Ishiyumi at the hospital...

Sweet!

I bet she is a White Feather since her fighting style seems to be dual sabers. Although she could be another bastard kid from a Red Feather/White Feather, but I think it would be overdone if they did it with both her and Tsumji(F).

I don't really like Bob's new look, I bet that is only for the cover though. He looks cooler as a Capoeria like fighter than a Jim Kelly Samurai.

I'm with you on that one. I really hope that Bob's new armored look is just for the cover.

And with regard to lightsabers--at least it starts off from a burning spark like a blowtorch. If it zapped to life like a lightsaber from Star Wars, I'd be quite disappointed. Then again I could be wrong.

Ok, I'll stop nitpicking now.

Acetylene gas blades. Basically like a blowtorch, I guess.

It's not so much that volume 12 will come with a figure _as well_ but rather that the figure of Aya will now come with a limited edition version of volume 12 (rather than with volume 11 as originally announced). There will now only be a regular edition of volume 11. Volume 12 will be released in the (northern) summer.

Her name is Mawari Madoka, presumably the daughter of Mawari who appears at the start of volume 9.

She takes on Bob, then Isuzu, then Masataka. Looking forward to see how this battle finishes.

I don't want to say too much. Wait til it comes out. There are some great scenes (IMO), especially the bit where Madoka cuts Bob's jugular.

Basically, Isuzu gets involved because Bob was training on/near school grounds when Madoka attacked him without provocation. Isuzu says she won't allow anyone to disturb the order of the school (and Mitsuomi-san), not even F. Further, she remembers that Mitsuomi-san had promised to Maya that there would be no fighting prior to the forthcoming match - F attacking the Jyukenbu is in breach of this promise. I don't think Isuzu trusts F, which aren't as loyal and obedient to Mitsuomi.

I don't think Masataka can ever open one. The Dragon's Fist*, if I remember correctly, is a power specific to the Nagi clan. So unless Masataka is revealed to be Souichirou's long-lost relative (which is a stupid plot twist in my opinion) Masataka will never show that power.

If he ever has powers of his own, it will be surely of a different kind. But honestly, I like him the way he is. There's already Aya and Souichirou for that matter, so having Masataka as a red feather is already too much.

y'all seem to forget Masataka

1) is a Takayanagi. Which means he's a member of the most powerful family (like the poster above me already said)

2) took a kick from (chibi) Maya without even flinching (see volume 1). No small feat you can say.

3) tossed Aya away when she tried to hold him down (volume 1)

Frankly, I'd rate Masataka as one of the most powerful characters in the series.

Masataka should be really strong, its just that he's not getting any character development in the manga. Everything seems to be about Nagi and Aya now, the two most boring people in the manga....

I want Masataka to be kicking ass already, theres no way he can let Nagi become stronger than him while he does nothing.

You seem to be forgetting one thing as well. The Takayanagi--as the leading clan right now--is a white feather family, and if ever it comes to pass that Masataka will have powers of his own, it will be of a different kind. And before anything like that even happens, he's got to be revealed as a bastard from some red feather clan that the author will mention out of nowhere.

Of course, Masataka's strong. He's got a mean streak that's probably just as intense as Mitsuomi's if not more, and that's precisely why I prefer him the way he is right now. Seriously, would you want him to have powers like Nagi and Tsumuji? That throws all semblance of balance right out of the window, if you ask me.

I'm not saying there's perfect balance or anything--just the mere appearance of it, which is good since it attempts to focus on a main character while trying to give the same equal treatment to the other characters.

BuccKevin: Is that really Kurei's brother? For a while there I thought he was Masataka! Geez man...that's another character in this manga's increasing cast. Despite that, I can't wait to see him action.

Also, Masataka has been shown with a Panther as his "mascot" before. Back cover of one of the volumes, and a sweet picture as well. (The one where he is wrapping his hands and feet.)

That's weird, I was checking the pic of Masataka wrapping his hands yesterday on the back of my volume and there's no panther on it :s

Also, there's this backcover of Isuzu With her thumbs in cuffs standing next to a bath tub, and her dress looks like it's taped to it and in the tub is someone's foot ... Could someone please tell me what THAT'S all about ? :?

Lots of pics here, and lots of what looks like rough sketches, I don't read jap though ~_~

Oh yea, Panther : http://ultra.shueisha.co.jp/Tenjo/Tenjo ... 37Pin.html

(it appears Fugu forgot to put in the panther scan when he made the torrents, but it's really ok)

BuccKevin : "kurei's real brother" => hahaha :)

ROPE ROPE ! GET ROPE !

Isn't that her foot ? O_o If it were "to do with something" I'd say it's probably something to do with with her "real" (re : fat) body. Bear in mind Izusu uses a similar concept to Maya (they both change their forms)

Personally I think Masataka might turn out kinda like Tawara... as the strongest of the group but not like the top guy or leader of the group...

:shock: really, that is so cool. Maybe Tawara can even end up training Masataka. Since Dougen (His own father :x ) is training Nagi. I've never really seen anyone train Masataka at all, but maybe I'm looking at this the wrong way, maybe he doesn't need anyone to train him. Is he really that good though???

Just because no one mentioned it (this may be a spoiler, so SPOILER WARNING or whatever), the thingie on the pic with the panther says that Taka Jr. is an "Anti-Weapons Martial Arts Specialist". So I guess he's good against fighting people who are using weapons. Kind of reminds me of a certain "taijutsu specialist" who also is popular but kind of gets shafted a lot in the story...

Grandfather. And there is no love lost between grandfather and father. Takayanagi's father also cut Mitsuomi out of the family completely. And I suspect that Takayanagi's father is not a fighter. From the all of 2 pages we've heard from him anyway...

well that would explain the pic bucckevin posted up where you see all kind of weapons in the background broken and the damn panda even broke a sword which reminds me wouldn't it be cool if masakata would be the one to break renki if aya was to go crazy.

Hm, I checked my French volumes and ALL the backcovers have been ruined by stupid Panini comics or generation comics or whatever ... They put this white stuff over half of each drawing, no wonder they allways looked incomplete :evil:

So, could someone send me or gove me a link where I can find all backcovers please, because I don't have Fugu's scanlations on my PC anymore, they should be here somewhere between my Naruto CD stack, but I just don't know where :roll:

I bought the March edition of ultrajump, I wish someone would hook me up with some scans or links to them. Fugu is right, the quality is really grainy, I scared that I'm going to rip the page. Fair warning, not every issue of Ultra Jump comes with Ten ten, I found out is out the hard way. BTW I would scan this chapter in and send them to anyone but I don't know how to send them. Sorry :oops: . The artwork is fanatisitc though, like this one creature comes out, it looks like if ALIENS and a dragon mated. Uber badass. I still can't figure out why Masataka end up with Tawara or how he's going to fight???

Some people are probably trying to figure out the connection between Masataka and Tawara. I think they've known each other since Masataka was a freshmen. I think Masataka was in the enforcer group before joining up with Maya.
