So you're fine with other bladed weapons such as swords, spears or Emi's hidden blades being used but a boxcutter is preposterous? Its still got a blade on it.Agent_Wax wrote:I was fine up to the armoured insect ninjas, but a sorcerer in his dungeon? A boxcutter stabbing (followed by a thinly-disguised penetrative rape)? What the hell happened to martial arts? If these are acceptable in the tournament, why aren't there a bunch of groups with machineguns and grenades and rocket launchers running the school already? Preposterous!
Well, I might change my mind if somebody founds a bokusokata-jutsu style, but no, it's not the same. When your school allows swords and you go for boxcutters, it says some really malevolent things about you. Plus it's really low, like dishonourable Detroit drive-bys, with none of what you would expect from a school of Toudou Gakuen's traditions.So you're fine with other bladed weapons such as swords, spears or Emi's hidden blades being used but a boxcutter is preposterous?

the witch-bitch sure has annnoying hair, to redraw that is
I guess it's a really thin line where matters of war and violence are concerned. But Emi's deal with the Bowgun club was a military strategy. The purpose was not to kill the Juukenbu but to disqualify them. This strategy is acceptable to Emi the kunoichi but not Tagami the samurai, but is arguably still a military strategy.Shaggy McDaddy wrote:And his tight ship includes Emi's under the table deal with the archery club.
Apart from Tagami things like honour don't really seem to mean much to the students these days.
I have to agree. I thought this was a school where the students learned martial arts, real ones. I should probably wit for the translation but what class would she have llearned the boxcutter thing in? And then grabbing it with her mouth and the whole leeches thing(which could never really do that) seriously is she supposed to be a witch? Is there a Harry Potter course at the school now? I hope Oh Great! knows what he's doing.Agent_Wax wrote:I guess it's a really thin line where matters of war and violence are concerned. But Emi's deal with the Bowgun club was a military strategy.

There is a fine but distinct line between war and carnage. It is ultimately the participants /fighters who decide whether they are fighting an honourable war for a justifiable end using reasonable means, or just practicing violence for violence's sake. You wouldn't describe those participating in a drunken bar-room brawl as 'martial artists'. Boxcutters are the implements of thugs who jump and rape single mothers on quiet streets and stab homeless old men in parks. At least that's what I think about the issue, but I might well be biased.
My thoughts too, we didn't see anything like this in the flashback tounement, though perhaps this is purposeful on Oh! Great's part to show how bad things have gotten under Mistuomi and why it's no longer called a "fighting paradise".Ashiyura wrote:Yeah, certainly some individuals aren't keen on honourable methods, but if it's a case of 'whatever works best' why aren't all the students carrying machineguns or something? I thought the whole point was that Toudou Gakuen was a martial arts academy, that's certainly the tone in the Ultra Jump Special translation... .

I think Red feather is cleaning possible troubles for Nagi in order for him to kick Mitsuomi's ass. We really don't know until what happened between Aya and Sohaku.
In this chapter, from Fuguu's translation, that razor girls' voice seems to be changed. possibily, Razor girl might also have ability to change her look?!?
bummer. I'll have to go back and get that. Screws up my page numbering though.MrProphet wrote:BTW, Fugu, you missed a page.

This spread went inbetween page 46 and page 47. The cleaner messed up a little.
No, that is not the school ranking - totally different words are used for that.Ricco wrote:I think she's one of the top 23 fighters of the school, I base this on the fact that the armor guy was said to be the 23rd. Maybe the list refered to in page 21.5 relates to the school ranking...
Yes, I also think the old witch imagery is more of metaphor or something.Ricco wrote: Also I think the image of the wizard/witch/alchemist is just the "feel" Nokomi leaves behind, kind of like how Nagi has sometimes a dragon in his background in the beginning. It just indicates her real nature, not some sort of shappeshifting power, at least that's what I think.
