You all think that this is something new, but no no, this is something that has been here past the few arcs. Mine killed Seryu with nakama powerup, that's a clear indication of manga dying. Wave knocked out Syura who was supposed to be the best hand-to-hand combat fighter in the manga, without his Teigu. Incursio responded to Tatsumi's feelings. There's probably a lot more. It's clear that this harem manga was damned from the start.

Should have never started reading it.
Those weren't really that big of a stretch. Pumpkin's capability of getting nakama power ups has been established since like the first 5 chapters. Wave's whole fighting style is about CQC. Author said Incursio evolves when the user is in Natsu mode when Tatsumi used Incursio for the first time plus Tatsumi ran away from Izou and used invisibility to distract Syura, who had no intel on it, for a second.

The results weren't THAT illogical compared to the past 3 chapters or something.

Le sigh.

Why do some of you seem to refuse to look a little past the panel you see? Consider the circumstances? Characters' feelings and thoughts? The fact that hype isn't something you should take as a technical specification for a character, but rather as an exaggeration? The fact that even in this manga, good guys are supposed to prevail?

Do you expect characters to be machines who do everything according to their hype and never make mistakes like underestimating their opponents or letting their guard down?
It's a manga. Author writes it. Characters DO NOT have feelings or anything of the sort unless the author applies them in said situation. Wave who has shown to make a lot of mistakes in the past absolutely had NO troubles evading Mine's attacks, but Budo who is MUCH more experienced than Wave when it comes to battle since he has seen 20 more years of combat than Wave has and hasn't made a single mistake yet is uncapable of doing the same thing as Wave even though his stats and battle adaptiveness are much more greater than Wave's or Kurome's.

Everyone's bítching about the Nakama hax, pretty sure it's part of every manga (almost), not to mention Budo will probably end up having a durability feat once he comes out of her Pumpkin's attack unscathed. This was just to overdramatise Mine's up and coming death via Esdeath blitz, to make this a love vs hate theme.

Yeah, but it was a stupid reasoning, just because it was established doesn't make it any more ****ing stupid, like what the **** lol.

Wave's fighting style is hiding behind his armor and let his armor do the work. Yeah, he's a beast with his Teigu but without it, how the **** was he supposed to beat Syura who has trained to fight without Teigu?

Incursio was a big joke, it was clearly Natsu v.2 not even joking.

That is not an excuse. This was just down right shitty. The Nakama shit works against someone only a bit stronger like Seryu or Wave, but Budo? No. Mine is someone who is supposed to be a lot weaker than Budo or Esdeath in term of strenght. Yet she shitted on Budo and is being on par with Esdeath.

Budo didn't have the situation under the control at all, which is obvious from looking at his face.






I cannot believe that even after today's chapter, this is still being defended...

Even Budo is capable of making a mistake. Everyone is.

I never said I liked how the situation was handled, I'm just saying that we can't expect everything to happen in a perfectly logical way since characters are no robots (by feelings I mean, hypothetical ones, of course), and the author isn't, either. Not to mention we all have different views on what was "logical" to happen.

But yet Wave and Kurome aren't capable of making such a dumb mistake? He has over 30 years of battle combat, not 0 years.

They ARE robots. Every last one of them is a work of fiction that can be as powerful or as robotic as the author wants them to be. The author chooses how he wants to make his characters like. And he chose for Budo to be the strong, competent general type of guy. Wave is a bit incompetent, yet not even he made a dumb ''mistake'' like Budo did.

Budo got rekt, one shotted and stomped, shots fired, accept it people.
He did, for this one moment. He'll be back.

I could have gone about how it was stupid and illogical for Ran to leave Champ to die instead of finishing him off. I could have lamented for how it was "plot" so that he could become Kurome's puppet. But I'm not. I'm drawing him to my own enjoyment. I don't burden myself with such strong negative feelings towards something fictional.

You know, even the most experienced surgeon can still make a mistake and fail surgery.

They are tools for the author to build a story, yes. But they are not machines who act based on calculations. And the author is human, too.
