Finally.... we get to see the fight with shin!! .... is it just me or did it seem like the fight was all 'hyped' up and when we see mitsoumi kickin shin's ass no prob.... it was kind of a let-down shin didn't use his dragon eye cus he prolly would have won, but does this mean that mitsoumi isn't powerful enuf? then why wait 2 months??! .....

I too was expecting an all out brawl, but this chapter actually still satisifed me. Probably more so overall than a super fight. The bit with Fu Chien was I dunno... didn't seem that necessary except I guess it set up Shin showing how selfish he is. In comparison Mitsuomi is a really noble guy, how he wants to take all of Maya's troubles on his shoulders. It's funny how he compares himself to Ultraman.
The group photo part was a great, I love it when small things in the "past" pop up later on with a greater significance.
I'm really loving Oh! Great's use of face close ups, they're so emotional. I'd have to say this is a great ending thus far... except I'm still not clear on why Mistuomi is doing the whole enforcement group thing in the present arc. But maybe this will be explained in a future chapter.
There's one more chapter in vol 7 btw. It says so much in the release notes.

well, even though the fight was NOT what i had in mind, it was perfect
shin's desperation, mitsuomi's coldness, man that fight was killer
the highlight was the slap maya recieved from that whore chick
it really was something and made me think of shin differently
but i cant believe mitsuomi popped shin's ears!

Granted, that's true, but look how deep Mitsuomi's finger goes. Like Maya's breasts, that's a physical impossibility.shin putting his finger in the ear is a normal thing cose
in martial arts
the ears , the nose , and the ass are consider as hidden hit
and like these are hidden they are powerful cose u canno t reinforce those parts of you re body like the neck and the balls

Ahem, I think he means... not the buttocks, but y'know, that place. That would be quite a "dirty" hidden hit.And NOBODY hits the arse. Not unless they're into spanking. The butt is too padded to cause significant damage.
What a great chapter. TGTJ is so masterfully told. What I expected at Vol.1 became something totally different -and better- at the end of Vol.7. Not your usual cliched setup, at all.
Everyone are complicated characters, but Shin was the star of this one. I love tragically flawed characters! On 1 hand, he shows his cruel and selfish side when he threatened his sister, the only person he loves. OTOH, he shows his humanity, and his last flash against the darkness, when he fought Mits without the Eye. *sniff* Goodbye, beautifully flawed evil bishounen!
Heroes are loved by everyone. But a villain is loved by only 1 person - the person he loves. That's what makes a villain so dreamy... ooh...
Mits was also complicated in this chapter, but it's kinda tarnished because he had to become the bad guy (contrasted with villain). Like how your dad would become the bad guy if he had to put down the family dog which contracted rabies.
As for "breasts". Yeah, it's really REALLY annoying. If there's 1 persistent flaw with TGTJ, it's the ridiculous breasts. I don't mind sexy characters, but superexaggerated proportions interfere with suspension of disbelief.

Actually those breasts probably have a lot of suspension. (bad pun )Rain_Cassidy wrote: As for "breasts". Yeah, it's really REALLY annoying.

And I think that's one area where a lot of guys (i.e. target audience) don't mind suspending disbelief.
I will agree with Rain that the characters are all complex. Everyone has some flaws or quicks that do just enough to let them break out of the sterotypical mold that could otherwise fit so well around a manga like this. The Shin Mistuomi conflict is the best of these conflicts because in the end there really isn't a good or bad guy. Oh! Great keeps switching the roles.
Was Ultraman only 3 minutes? I thought it was 10 or something, it seemed to last quite a long time in the series... oh, yeah, it's 3 minutes after all. Hmm...standa-man wrote:It's funny how he compares himself to Ultraman.

But, they all look so FRIENDLY in the photo! If that was Tawara's contribution, he is even more my hero than before! Heck, now that EVERYONE else seems to have either Dragon's Eye, electricity, knives, Infinite Ki reserves (nagi), triple beat heart, and whatnots, Tawara Bunshichi is the one guy who gets along with human abilities, AND no training! (other than his own school of Kick-ASS... literally...)
Oh, the Bit about, "I created the Jukyenbu to have this fight... not." Is something like, he was once happy to be in this school, this fighting paradise. He set up a team just to promote this atmosphere of fighting, so he too would be able to experience the fight to the fullest. And, perhaps, someday have the Ultimate Duel.
Then said Duel turned out to be THIS. ... THAT is what the NOT is for.
As for how deep his finger goes, I can comfortably insert a ear digger one knuckle length or so into my ear, I think. (haven't measured for sure). Note that he's one of those jokers that can stab his finger into solid flesh, what's your problem with him jamming it into the ear like that? I'm guessing if you take a steel rod, jam it in someone's ear and slam the other end with a sledgehammer, you can get it even further... yuck...
Synth, the fight isn't over yet, Shin looks like he's gonna pull out the Dragon's Eye... and besides, who knows how much of the 3 minutes is left?
Of course Mit looks cold. He's basically "helping" Shin fight the Dragon's Eye. It's not a fight, it's like torture, he's goading the DE out. He's not going for the knock-out punches at all so far...
Fair exchange, for "helping" Mit become strong enough to challenge him, by "helping" raise his Heartbeat to 200 plus times a minute...
So, Shin's 3 power levels are Normal Shin, Katana Dragon Eye Shin, and All Out Dragon Eye Shin? cool. but, wasn't Bunshici fighting Shin v3 when he totalled the guy? hmmm... maybe not. And, I'm guessing Shin is currently in v1 Normal in this duel?
What I want to know is, how strong is Tawara compared to Mitsoumi?

I don't have a problem with that scene. It's fiction, after all. I'm just saying that will never work in a real fight, just like how you can never find a real woman with Maya's (unenhanced) breasts. And I'm not arguing size here, but firmness and suspension and a general lack of 'sagginess'.As for how deep his finger goes, I can comfortably insert a ear digger one knuckle length or so into my ear, I think.

Are you sure? I mean, I translated that, and I really don't know what he meant. It is tough for me, because Tenjo Tenge has some sophisticated language - or it is, at least, more complicated than many other Shounen manga that I've read. I often have to interpret what is said so I can translate it into something less than literal in English, and this is just one case where I do not know the correct translation. The phrasing he used is one that is used often in jokes, after you have fooled someone into believing something. I would ask my girlfriend, but she's in Japan for another week. I'm curious about this though, so I'll try to remember to ask her when she gets back.jasonred wrote: But, they all look so FRIENDLY in the photo!

Certainly, the fight is not over yet... There is one more chapter remaining in this volume. It should go out tomorrow, assuming I can finish up the last "extra manga" thing today. Those are really, really hard to read and understand. Humor is so freaking hard to translate. I can't tell you how hard I have to think to get some of these jokes across.
