A reminder that this happened.
Air Gear general.
>>135792602
I love Ringo's face.
Butthurt bitch.
>>135792602
isn't Simca a bit old for him, anyway?
>>135793179
No.
>>135793179
25, to be specific.
>not wanting a 25 yr old girlfriend
>>135793179
Dude, the older they are, the less whiny they get. Same with extremely fit waifus, and she's a combination of both.
>>135793333
Simca was never whiny though.
>>135793112
>Butthurt bitch
Just like Simca's fans.
>>135793333
yes, but what would she want with a little boy like the MC?
>>135794169
Virility
>>135793410
I was talking in general. In the show she was already in her 20s, and by this new chapter I'd figure she's at least 26 (while Ikki is at least 19 or older)
>>135793459
I feel to see how that's true; Simca's back, she made out with Ikki and she went on an AT date with him, which hopefully leads to babbies in the future.
Your point?
>>135794169
Libido, strength, bravado, not to mention she scouted him for his AT talent early on (and was spot on correct), and because of it he became the motherfucking Sky King.
What sort of girl would do all that without getting wet for him after so much suffering and effort?
>>135794660
It's half a year later.
>>135792602
Fuck Oh Great man. That dude was a piece of shit hack writer who people suck on his knob for being so "deep" and "philosophical". He was an intentionally confusing and long winded idiot who thought "plot twists" were the best thing ever. He somehow took nice, simple stories that had well written characters with interesting concepts and powers that could have easily finished in half the time he wrote and just SNAP!, ruined it with his bullshit. Artwork is fantastic, when it wants to be, but as for the actual plot? Pure 100% dog shit.
>>135792602
>Air Gear general.
Fuck off. Like seriously, I like Air Gear threads, but kill yourselves generalfags.
>>135795059
>who people suck on his knob for being so "deep" and "philosophical".
first I've ever heard of it
>>135794830
The whole manga? Are you sure?
>>135795059
>I don't have the capacity to follow deep and complex storylines and artwork, so I'm just going to blame the source author and his fans to cover up my low IQ!
>>135792602
>that fucking swallow following her everywhere
jfc my heart
>>135795059
Was Oh Great the first Kubo
>>135795686
Hey now, don't kid yourself. I loved every minute of Air Gear but if you didn't think the writing was more of a clusterfuck than Kingdom Hearts you're deluding yourself.
>>135795655
It says so in the chapter, did you even read it.
>>135795743
I think Oh Great is better for coming completely out of left field.
Kubo looks at his previous notes and makes shut up from there.
>>135795686
Don't try and act like OG's writing isn't a high level clusterfuck. Tenjou Tenge was even worse with that.
>>135796197
>Tenjo Tenge
Yeah bomb a head!
Your BODY TIMEBODY TIME
>>135796446
fuck you anon I like that song, it's stupid but I like it
>>135795059
Literally never happened.
O!G is fun to "read"
I miss his manga. Now he's just doing the art for an even worse writer.
Someone post Obama
>>135792602
>Air Gear general.
Fuck off.
>>135793112
>This chapter
>"Oh, Simca is still suffering from the injuries I inflicted in battle."
>Orders her underling to murder Simca in a sneak attack while Simca was walking home
>While Simca was outnumbered
>Because Simca kissed the guy she had a crush on
>Leaves Simca in a coma, just avoided being crippled for life
>"Battle wounds"
Fuck Ringo and fuck Oh Great for thinking I've forgotten this shit. There is absolutely nothing Ringo can do to be redeemed for this. She tried to cold-bloodedly murder someone because they'd kissed her brother. She's a monster.
Also:
>Works with a guy who cuts off faces for fun
>This is never mentioned again
Oh Great seems to forget that if you want to leave it ambiguous who the good guy and who the bad guy is, you can't have anyone commit unforgivable crimes. If you introduce someone by showing them repeatedly shooting their son in the face for no reason, you can't then turn around and say that they were actually a loving father.
>>135792602
Reminder that he should have won this fight and "LOL IT WAS AN ANDROID TRICKED YOU FAG" was one of the dumbest moments in the entire manga.
>>135798412
You forgot
>Break Simca's legs so she wont be part of the upcoming battle
>Shes immediately kidnapped because you broke her fucking legs and she can't run away
Ringo was a bitch.I hope we get more retarded poses
>>135798572
Remember how hilariously bad the collage of "memorable moments" the kiss scene had. Like Oh Great! was trying to justify the pairing but the only support for it he could find was some medium sized panels and lucky pervert moments.
>>135798572
Air Gear is like a manga written by someone with anterograde amnesia, where every ten chapters or so the mangaka forgets everything he's written before that. It's quite possibly the worst thing I've ever read, comparable to My Immortal and Gamer Girl.
>>135799015
Well thats what happens when you have Ringo bow out of the romance and literally tell Kururu that she can have Ikki then 100 chapters later change your mind and have her take it back.
>>135799118
The end was such a clusterfuck of dropped things and unawnsered questions.
>What was Ikki? Was he a gravity child made my Dr Minami like he was alluded?
>Rika wasn't a gravity child, was she Minami's biological daughter? Why did she care for the random gravity children he made?
>Whats with the youngest sister? All the others are gravity children made around the same time, why is she 10 years younger than everyone?
>What the fuck was Minami's goal? He said he was trying to beat Sora and show him the potential of normal humans but he then went around making a fuck ton of gravity children and helping Sora out with his retarded goal.
>Why the actual fuck did Sora never use his AT's for his entire life until he fought Ikki? Are you telling me he actually didn't deem Killik, someone stronger than him and who he wanted to beat in a fight worth taking serious?
>Why did Sora have Nike attack him and Rika? So he could go to the hospital and train Ikki which ends up making no sense because he fucking hated Ikki.
>>135799118
this
>>135799372
>Well thats what happens when you have Ringo bow out of the romance and literally tell Kururu that she can have Ikki then 100 chapters later change your mind and have her take it back.
God I am still pissed about that, "I love Simca like a idol, Ringo like a sister, Kururu like a lover" chapter.
What the fuck, why, why would you do that? Why would you make a chapter like that?
>>135799372
Mid way through the manga Oh great even fucking forgot about the existence of that shitty crow that always sit on Ikki's head
Good thing he included it in the recent chapter
>>135792602
>general
No fuck off, it's old as fuck, the story is shit, Oh Great! can't write a decent story to save his lfie, and you should kill yourself
>>135799372
Don't forget:
>Sora, who's been the most powerful Air Gear user on Earth since childhood, capable of exceeding practically everyone without even turning his Air Gear on, somehow represents the untalented 99%
>Ikki, someone who was pathetically useless with Air Gear until he dedicated huge amounts of time and effort to practise, represents the gifted 1%
I also love how the shoes can record your personality and unload it to the internet to the point that you can come back from the dead in a robot body. The kind of technology that would be world changing anywhere else is shoved in as a small side-detail in Air Gear. "By the way these motorised roller skates double up as the aleph from Mona Lisa Overdrive."
Tis be naught but a flesh wound
>>135793288
So, technically, she's a christmas cake?
>>135799744
Best fight in the whole manga right there other than Kazu and bubble butt.
>>135799722
Where's the picture of the schoolgirls giving cats an umbrella?
>>135799835
Onigiri easily has the best fight and potential in the manga
>IMAGINE
>>135799571
The worst part is Ringo literally represents everything he hated about AT. The entire point was Ikki just wanted to have fun on AT and fly through the sky.
Ringo was the type of person he hated, using AT for weapons and making everything super serious.
On a side note I found it hilarious that Ikki never got tuned nor used a Regalia outside of the NTR nude chicks whose immediately broke.
Is the whole chapter translated?

For what purpose?
>>135802138
Well a thread is always nice since the new chapters.
But having a general is literal cancer
I can't find a download link for the special chapter raw. Can you help me? I only found the scanlated one.
>>135802278
What new chapters? It was just an one shot that hinted at a sequel. Maybe. Were there more news?
>a general is literal cancer
Agreed.
>>135802492
Shit I thought it was seralized again, didn't realize it was a one-shot. Now I feel sad
>All this general hate
Generals are shit because they continue forever despite having no content to discuss, leading to incestuous shitposting and tripfag culture. People go to the generals to hang out with people they recognise, rather than actually talk about anything.
This thread isn't a cancerous general, it's just a discussion thread for an old manga with some new content. There's no reason to complain. Wait until people stand posting 24/7 Air Gear threads.
>>135803584
The OP probably just worded it that way because he didn't want to do some random meme greentext and hope somebody latches on.

Feels bad man.
>>135809778
Agreed, that Ringo picture he did is, to me, the quintessential spitroast image.
>>135795059
He's literally Wasted Potential: The Mangaka
>>135795907
Dude, I meant since the start of the entire franchise. Not since Sora's fight with Ikki.
>>135798412
Well if you think about it, Simca still kicked her vindictive ass for it by stealing back her man.
And rightfully so.
>>135799372
Ikki was pure AT talent. His affinity for the sky surpassed even Sora's, that's how he won in the end. By all means, Ikki was born normally, but he definitely inherited Dr. Minami's ambitions.
Rika was from the Noyamano family, she was only tested on. She too had natural affinity for the sky.
Which younger sister? Do you mean Nue? She was from the newer generation of Sleeping Forest. She wasn't with everyone else. Same with Ringo. I'm not sure which generation Mikan was from.
Minami worked on the Gravity Children, but still had every intention of having his son beat them eventually. It's also why Ikki was raised among Sleeping Forest legends.
Sora murdered Kilik with his Regalia ATs in the tower, you seemed to have missed that. He sliced his head clean off at the time.
Sora wanted to test Ikki, see if he had potential (by teaching him a couple of tricks), and at the very least find a way to betray him later by being a mentor figure early on (and earning his trust).
>>135799571
In the end, he chose Simca. That's what this week's chapter was for.
>>135799722
>most powerful Air Gear user
>Air Gear user
kek
Also, to address your butthurt: Sora lost his "wings". He felt he represented the talentless 99% by utilizing technology to replace his disability.
Ikki was in fact born with talent. Are you telling me all master artists with talent drew godly work when they were still 8 or something? Ikki picked up on ATs and started kicking ass within the same 2 months he discovered Ringo's Regalia that one fateful night.
>>135799747
She's a half-French goddess.

When I was reading air gear when it was still weekly I thought Kururu was best girl. Was I wrong?
>>135811893
Not entirely. She's Simca without the confidence really... not to mention they both belonged to the TTT.
There is nothing you can do with a sequel.
Oh Great already stated that Onigiri moves away to the Middle East to get married with his Middle Eastern loli waifu.
Ikki's gang is already starting to break up and go different places and become genuine normalfags.
Simica is like 24 years old, right?
>>135811863
his name was Mosha, a shitload of his stuff's still up on Gelbooru.
>>135811913
You same to know what goes on in O!G's head.

Dude, the hell are you on about? That loli had her neck broken by Nike.
She's dead, Jim.
Also you missed the new chapter. Everyone is back together.
>>135812162
>Dude, the hell are you on about? That loli had her neck broken by Nike.
>She's dead, Jim.
You're fucking high. Go read the last chapter again, not the one-shot.
>>135812162
The loli is alive. And this new special one shot does not take place after the epilogue.
This special takes place 6 months after the last battle but the Air epilogue took place 9 months after the last battle with Sora's child finally ready to be born.
>>135811571
>He felt he represented the talentless 99% by utilizing technology to replace his disability.
But he didn't even switch them on. He was still one of the best riders in the world with unpowered legs.
Ikki was talented, sure, but no more talented than the rest of his team who were claimed not to be geniuses.
>>135812104
MOSHA IS DEAD?!
OH MY GOD WHAT'S YOUR SOURCE.
I LOVED THAT GUY. HE DID Mx0 ART TOO.
>>135812250
If she survived, that's super cool!
>>135812460
We don't have any actual proof, but he suddenly stopped updating after the 2011 tsunami hit the region where he lived.
>>135812290
Dude, did you miss out all the tech built straight into his body? He turned his entire being into one giant AT; I'm pretty sure it was fully switched on during the last fight with Ikki.
>>135812639
Did you miss the page where he finally put some batteries into his Air Gear and explained that he'd never had the need to switch them on before?
He was switched on, but one using Regalia, during the final fight. He wasn't switched on at any point before that.
>>135812740

>>135813626
>Oh Great! all of a sudden turned Kazu into some self-insert deuteragonist hot wheels prodigy
>lasts 30 chapters
Kazu/Onigiri becoming important (without Ikki) was annoying. The only excuse they have for being so good at AT (better than most of the pros) despite being total newbie scrubs less than a year ago is that Ikki is supposed to be "the wind beneath their wings" or some shit.
Like Ikki's road is so pervasive he takes ordinary people and makes them extraordinary.
And then again, Sora was supposed to represent the 99%.
>>135799890
Onigiri is my favorite character, he's a lewd piggy bastard who is surprisingly reliable and ends up with a rich loli.
>>135813888
Nope, it happened again when Kazu almost kicked Ikki's ass. And again when Spitfire passed down his regalia to him. And again when Kazu faced Aeon.
>>135814715
He's literally the author's self-insert
>>135802138
Might as well listing all of the flaws we can find in the series, then we are done until further news.
Art for Air Gear was fantastic until the nonsensical shit at the end. And holy fuck, what the fuck happened to the plot halfway through? Did the editors just forget how to say no?
Is there a soul in the world who remembers Hako Isawa?
Hako Isawa did nothing wrong.
Wait Simca won? 2016 is on a good start.
>>135814988
oh! great is only good at art.
>>135815104
Nobody won.
Oh!Great retconned the ending, Ikki is a manwhore.

>oh! great is only good at art.
I dunno, I actually quite enjoyed the character interaction and general story in Air Gear for a while, early on.
>>135815607
>>135815705
It's not her fault that she did everything all the other girls did but instead of drawing her blushing Oh!Great drew a black panel background behind her.
She didn't even try to murder the other girls as much a Ringo did. She just stole tools and did other little sabotages.
>>135815171
I used to say this. Then he got a writer who wrote an even dumber story for him.
>>135815992
Yeah, I agree that Ringo is worse.
But she still defected to Nike. I fucking hate that faggot so much.
>>135813362
Literally the only reason why shes there
>>135792602
>Promise
>He already got engaged to Ringo
So what?
>>135814615
Kazu and Onigiri were amazing and beat the ever loving fuck out of Nike arguable the strongest character in the series.
Bucha is the one who got fucked over.
>>135816562
Nope.
>>135816562
Engaged?? How???
>>135817332
Babies are born from kisses in Nippon. It has to do with tectonic plates and magnets.
Holy Shit, the series is continuing? I've been living under a rock for these past couple of weeks.
>>135792602
I hope, when they are fully grown, both Simca and Ikki find their love for each other on a more mature level. Then they get married have lots and lots of babies.
I swear, if Air Gear still ends with Ringo winning I'll be upset.
>>135817332
They confessed to one another.
>>135820353
Fuck.
>>135820353
so?
>>135820271
why not she deals with his shit the most
>>135821049
More like she ruined his shit.
I still can't get over how she used to baby him at the start of the series. And when Simca, the girl who did in fact scout his talent for the sky, got too close, Ringo fucking ambushed her to keep her away from him.
>>135821337
His sisters were straight domestically abusive in the beginning. Ringo didn't do shit about it.
>>135795743
Kubo actually made something decent with Zombiepowder. and Early Bleach so no
>>135798572
Was Ringo the original Anita Sarkeesian?
>>135798572
Agito was best Air Gear and you know it.
>>135821806
>pretends to be decent/modest
>actually hates other girls and wrecks their shit, and not in a good way
Eh, somewhat.
>>135822022
I was more referring to her whole Tumblr look
>Nerd girl
>Stronk independent womyn
>Ugly as shit
But that works too
>>135820238
I don't know why he didn't just marry her that day right there
>>135822147
What pissed me off the most about her was wasting Ikki's possible time with other girls/women, while not having the courage to ask him out.
She was a constant cockblock. Simca on the other hand was very gutsy, honest and forward. Hell, she tried to work out a compromise with Ringo in chapter 21-23 when she warned that if Ringo wouldn't take care of Ikki, she would step in herself and do it.
But no, instead, Ringo just opted to break her legs as an easy way to keep him to herself, while still not being honest with her feelings.
I fucking hate bitches like that, they're too fucking real.
tl;dr Ringo is most likely what an ugly hateful 3D grill crushing on you would be like IRL.
>>135811422
Meh, this manga is a shit anyway.
>>135822315
I love how you reached that after having everything explained to you.
>>135822297
The only roadblock in Simca's relationship was that Ikki couldn't trust her because she had all those connections to other gangs, and he was a pretty important dude.
Good thing she turned out to be a pure maiden in the end and not Sora wearing a female skinsuit.
>>135822404
>and he was a pretty important dude
To be fair he was only an important dude because of Simca. He was pretty much a nobody until she took an interest in him and tried to make him King of Genesis.
>>135822404
Yeah, but that costed him her legs when Ringo attacked. Had Ikki trusted her in time, he would've been able to protect her.
I can't entirely blame Ikki for what happened to her, since Ringo was waiting for a chance to ambush her after he'd last seen her. Not to mention he did kick Ringo's ass pretty hard for it soon after when he confronted her.
>>135820879
This is Japan, the land of the Red String and First GIrl Wins.
>>135822987
Possibly. Although there's still that "why is Ikki living with them is he a gravity child or the original gravity child?" fan theory that's up in the air.
He was also incredibly naturally gifted, which is why Simca wanted him in the first place, and he was the local gang boss which is pretty big by itself.
>>135823204
The local gangboss thing was just flavoring, the real deal was definitely has natural talent for ATing.
He's definitely not a Gravity Child. He's simply the son of Dr. Minami, and all we can speculate for now is that Ikki inherited natural instincts for flying with ATs in the sky.
>>135823204
Minami implied the fuck out the fact he created Ikki.
I mean he was special because he was living with the Sleeping Forest members and all but its not like anyone knew about that since he and them kept it a secret.
Which is retarded in retrospect since literally everyone knew Rika was a former sleeping forest member and Ringo had her regalia.
I don't even know how many years latter, and I still hate Ringo.
>>135823324
>>135823286
The gravity children where probably created from Ikki's cells or something
>Ringo blood related
>BTFO incestfags
>Retconned back into sister role
Best bros or best bros?
Air Gear is still great for when you just want to turn your mind off and either laugh or be surprised.
>>135823461
>That the one who was fighting in the aircraft carrier was just a robot remotely controlled from electric brain space
I bet at this point Oh Great! was just experimenting to see whether his editor was actually reading his manuscripts.
>>135823443
Very plausible.
Ikki may just be Big Boss for the entire Air Gear franchise. That might make perfect sense.
Let's also not forget the Brain Charger project Agito/Akito/Lind/Gazelle was based off of.
>>135823571
>>135823461
I wouldn't be surprise if the next big bad group will be an ancient evil AT genius who revived via this technology.
