But yh I dont see Shishiba losing anymore. The narrative is leading to Shishiba looking after Yotsumaru's family after he goes. And the only way he can have an emotional death is with Shishiba ending it for him. Plus im assuming this will lead to some character development for Shishiba as well and making him a more caring person in genera
Doesn't make much sense for him to look after his family when he becomes the cause of their father's death.

Yotsumaru signed his death warrant the moment he betrayed the JAA (apparently). Shishiba is just doing his job. If he doesnt kill Yotsumaru....he dies.

So yh he has no choice. The least he can do is look after Amane or just protect him from afar whenever he can. But I do think Amane will be pissed at Shishiba when he finds out what he did to his dad.
 
Oh damn, if only he hadn't left that lottery card out in plain sight.

So Yotsumura's goal is to bring down the JAA-- do you think they knew his wife was in on the plot and conveniently forgot to tell him? Why does he hold a grudge against the JAA for what happened?

I wonder why Amane already disliked his dad. Personality differences or maybe the mother was manipulating how the son felt about his dad? Maybe Amane's just always been a little hissing edgelord and I shouldn't think about it too hard.

The panels in the tunnel and in the car (is that a Toyota Crown?) are so clean and nicely composed. I also realized that Yotsumura reminds me of Steve Buscemi :usoprice:

Shishiba really is 1) efficient and 2) cold, to the point that he probably thought what happened to Yotsu was bound to happen no matter what, and that he shouldn't have made himself vulnerable by having a family. I wonder if Sakamoto (or Osaragi?) will change his mind about that or if he'll continue to be a lone wolf.

Another great chapter that leaves me wondering about how everyone fits together! I still don't understand what was happening in this flashback from a couple of chapters ago. Why did Shishiba have to intervene that night?

I think his reason for bringing down the JAA stems from sometime after the events of this flashback

He could have saved the Chief but in a twist of fate it looked like he murdered fellow assassins or even a former Order member and was thus blacklisted and hunted. Or some other reason lol.

I think Shishiba will get his development at the end of this fight. He already struggled once to kill Yotsumaru....so he'll probably struggle again.

Here are some ideas I have:-

1.) He took his wife's place as one of the conspirators to help protect her dignity and his son in general.

2.) He failed to kill the conspirators due to....well just kill ending his wife. Thus they blacklisted as unfaithful.

Im thinking its number 2. Since it said he failed a mission.

Finally read the chapter.

Knew there was more to it than him just killing his wife for no reason. Though I do have to say it was careless for him to leave that ticket in plain sight on the table. Wouldn't expect a pro assassin at that level to be that reckless even at home to be honest, but I get that it's for the plot.

That said, it's definitely a sad and well done backstory for Yotsumura.

I saw someone mention it earlier and I agree that the final line was a callback to Shino's line about a pro as well.


Not sure who is winning the fight here. Both have reasons and points. Shishiba has Osaragi to take care of and teach, Yotsumura to clear his name and explain to his son what happened if possible. I could see Shishiba dying here, cuz so far all the Order Members have survived their battles, and only Kanaguri has deflected so to say, so the Order is basically intact, and if this is the big arc we'd need some deaths of the mainish cast and stronger members to convey the danger.

How's this series boys ? Has been popped up in my recomendations recently, but i'm not too sure......
It's pretty good. Visually stunning, probably the best fight choreography in Jump as of now. The story is interesting as well, comedic too, and the characters are fine.

I also started it reluctantly, felt it wasn't my thing, but got hooked after a few chapters and I am enjoying it quite a lot now.

I assumed early on that Shishiba would kill Yotsumura (to surpass his master and because their last names are so similar), but now I don't want Amane to be an orphan! Plus, it would deepen his hatred for the JAA. I agree that the fight will be a big development for Shishiba though-- I hope he makes it!

On the conspirators thing, what if Shino was working on an internal coup at the JAA, and it succeeded because Yotsu was busy killing her? Then the usurper became the new head of JAA, which is why Yotsu hates them... it kind of works.

Hmm....the new head of JAA is the usuper Yotsumaru was supposed to kill ? Possibly, good theory. That would mean they were sucessful in getting rid of the old boss and then put a red flag on Yotsu.

Great blend of action and comedy. As Light already mentioned, the paneling of the action scenes is the best in Jump rn, and imo the best I've seen in a long while.
The characters' personalities and motivations are grounded/realistic enough to make you invested and just whacky enough to make you laugh.

The closest series in tone is OPM, but where OPM is almost completely comedic, Sakamoto has serious moments sprinkled throughout (such as the main plot of the story).
 
finally read the chapter yotsumaru is becoming one of my favorites hope he doesn't die he was just recently introduced but with his whole flashback out you could make the case that his story is done but i want him to meet his son

amane is probably going to lose his database grandpa losing his dad would too much for the poor kid, can't wait to see amane surpass his dad tho

back to yotsumaru i think he was stronger than sakamoto in his prime i get sakamoto is supposed to be the former top 1 in the verse but i just don't see it
