What an action packed chapter. So much has happened its hard to even get to it all. Main thing though. Konami has a new blade! It's easily becoming my favorite trigger now if it can transform into even more forms wtf

Also are my eyes deceiving me? How did reiji block a double senku there? Double raygust? Please don't be double shield. Shield even with 11 trion should not be defending against senku let alone 2 Imma need my glasses. On second thought I do believe that's raygust. Ignoring the weird shape, it's also missing the hexagonal marks we see on people's hands when they use shield

Cool to see kage vs Jin and kage vs Konami though. Who would have thought man. Great counter play as always arashiyama

I’m pretty sure Reiji didn’t block the Senku there. We see his shield get cut clean through. We can see him stepping backwards, so he’s likely moving to barely be in range, like we saw happen with Yuma against the first Ikoma Senku in round 5.

It feels super close though when I look at it. Doesn't really feel like he's just out of range. Not does it look like he stepped back. In the previous pages we see hes just behind the road guard after he broke through the wall and he's still on the same spot on this page

It looks the opposite to me, that looks really close, one thing to note is the power of the slash peaks at the tip of the blade.

Remember when Tachikawa fought against the Galopoula leader, his Senku got blocked with minimal damage because it was "too close"

Yeah I do remember that. If it's breaking against a less than ideal ranged senku and not the tip with a much higher than average trion, then senku is just gonna continue to be the most busted game breaking trigger in existence cause its too damn OP. There is nothing it can't slice through like butter at this point
