Read the latest three chapters of shinpuri! I plurked a very, very brief summary which. yes. here we go.
Warning: somewhat large images. (okay they aren't THAT big)
maybe!Ryoga being mysterious.
maybe!Ryoga being even more mysterious. The coach doesn't recognize him, apparently!
Oishi uses his magical doctory skills and. I don't know. MIDDLE SCHOOLERS.
Not pictured: Niou calling Oishi "Tamago", hurr hurr.
... YEAH, I DON'T KNOW EITHER.
Also not pictured: Niou Illusioning into Eiji. Will that even work. CHAPTER END.
JIROU/MARUI PAIRPURI. :D THANK YOU, KONOMI. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
after 53 I got lazy and stopped cropping out the scenes.
- Momo joins Kenya for doubles!
- the highschoolers know Kenya, and vice versa!
- "Hirazen and Haratetsu were legendary buchous at Shitenhouji." Well, okay then. Note: Hirazen and Haratetsu are nicknames, I'm assuming. Hirazen (which can be read as 平善) is Taira Yoshiyuki's nickname, who's name is written as 平善之. Haratetsu (which can be written as 原哲) is Hara Tetsuya's (原哲也) nickname. It's like, I dunno, Babaryo.
- power doubles with Kabaji and Taka-san! Kabaji is copying their moves. One of the highschoolers have a move called 男児の春 which. yeah.
- it sends Taka-san flying head first into the fence, but he's alright because this is tenipuri, okay. He's like "Now Kabaji-kun has seen that super shot too." CHAPTER END.
- Inui is stalking Renji, as usual.
- Renji and the megane boy (Mitsuya Akuto) know each other too. Mitsuya even calls him "Renji".
- Renji calls him... "Akuto-niisan" haha what.
- Mitsuya is all "if you win against me, I'll give you my U-17 badge". Typing that made me laugh, oh Pokémon.
- Renji took his 「と、お前は言う。」 thing from this guy too. I'm assuming it'll be a data match?
- Kin-chan and his opponent headbutt, there is an unhealthy amount of blood flying everywhere.
- "Super Megaton Wonder Deluxe Eruption serve!" WHO LETS THIS BOY NAME HIS MOVES. I mean, at least there isn't any "delicious" anywhere, but still.
- Tanegashima reveals himself to be number 2. THAT'S IT FOR THE MONTH.
So. yes.
