Nah. All he did was distract them from the more devious wires by drawing their eyes to glaring, noticeable wires right in front of their faces. He doesn't even have asteroid out now, and it's not as if that slow buckshot technique is something he can use outside of infinite trion scenarios.

Oh yes, some things:

I ripped the Border Briefing File digital edition thanks to the help of an anon and the script they told me about. It has been uploaded in its entirety along with some instructions on how to buy BBF yourself.

Volume 10 is ripped and uploaded. No more bad scans. I ripped it last week but reuploaded it today because there was a minor error in the before-chapter pages (cast pages, specifically).

Translations of BBF have been updated again. Chippokenabokura is now using the digital rips I sent her. Graph section is complete. She's doing the 303 Q&As section next, although she's starting from the start.

That's all. Interesting little chapter this week. Kakizaki seems to be the complete opposite of Katori. Not sure how this match is going to turn out exactly what with Yuuma suffering a wound like this.

Teruya was 12 during that conference. Tomoe was even younger. They were just kids seeing a bigger kid standing before a big crowd and representing heroic endeavors.

Rookie mistake by Kuga.

The boy ain't perfect,

He really should've been wary of that gun. I guess it is true that he doesn't have much experience facing people with ranged weapons.

Nah, that would make sense if they idolised Arashiyama. They decided to ignore the confident and competent bigger kid and join the squad of the sweaty loser.
>>
>>141313418
>>141313461
This really doesn't make any sense. Somehow Kakizaki pins Yuma using only his shoulder muscles, Yuma doesn't pull out, he goes in even further for a stab, then Yuma somehow teleports from being to the side and below Kakizaki to being directly in front and above Kakizaki. Kakizaki somehow hit Yuma with a gun, despite Yuma standing closer than the gun barrel.

Ah whatever, everyone makes mistakes.

No, Kakizaki just aimed.

Also from how Yuuma's positioned in the final panel, he actually did attempt to pull away, but it was too late.
>>
>>141314438
Now imagine all the C-rank rookies that'll gun for Tamakoma 2 because the sweaty dude in the recent press conference was actually able to stand his ground against the press.
>>
>>141315407
Aiming wouldn't throw Yuma upwards. Anyway, Yuma is still standing too close, he just needs to hug Kakizaki and there's nothing Kakizaki can do about it.
>>
>>141315407
>Aiming wouldn't throw Yuma upwards

And maybe he could have done that, but he didn't.

Yuma really needs to get on the ball. He does something like this almost every match. Bail-out has left him soft, slip up like this in war and you're fucked.
>>
>>141315928
He just has a tendency to be reckless, period.

He did something horribly risky just in the last large scale invasion. If his plan hadn't worked, he would have died.

I'm not sure about that. It does make sense, but Katori guessed that herself before she fell. If it was something so obvious, why have all of Katori's team and Izumi all been speculating? Why waste panel space wondering about something they already have the answer to?

>He doesn't even have asteroid out now
Spider seems to work the same way as other shooter triggers. We saw in the Ninomiya/Kuga fight that Osamu can leave bullets floating around in the corner of the rooms to activate them later, so he could be doing the same thing with Spider.
>>
>>141315928
He's always been like this, in fact it's why he's running around in a triton body in the first place.

Aftokrator would be mugs to kill a talented soldier with a Black Trigger like Yuma. They'd probably capture him and make him into a soldier.

The old man would of killed Yuma in that strike if the plan didn't work,anon. It was kill or be killed at that point.

As expected, now it's time for Megane-kun and Chika to shine
>>
>>141316579
Osamu just needs to delay Katori squad until they bleed out from their wounds and hope that Chika gets given the points for forcing them to cut off their own limbs.
>>
>>141316217
>Why waste time wondering about something they already have the answer

Because overthinking.
The trick is simple. And even if you know about it, it's really fucking hard to counter it. Because it is so simple.
What catches the human eye, are bright colours. Not shit that's nearly invisible anyway.
>>
>>141317123
Or Chika probably will impede Fumika's movements by using lead bullet then support Osamu since it is 2 vs 1 against Katori squad. Since Chika cannot "kill" her that might be a better option
>>
Well, sakurako did say at the beginning of the match that the weakness of Tamakoma was their inability to score aside Kuga, and that they needed to overcome that to return in the upper ranks.
>>
>>141314180
I don't see much to get mad about. It's pretty much just reporters asking tough questions and being a bit adversarial.

To some extent it's what they're suppose to do.
>>
>>141316217
>Why waste panel space wondering about something they already have the answer to?

Either to reveal that Osamu has some really cool Spider trick up his sleeve, or that Katori Squad and Izumi have been overthinking an otherwise simple visual trick.

I hope this gives the team's non-point getters to step up and get some points. Though Yuma's going to have to take down Teruya before he bails out if they hope to have a shot at taking down Katori Squad by themselves, since Katori squad might get bolder with their attacks if they learn that Yuma is no longer going to be a threat to them.
>>
>>141313461
>needing to bail out against these 2 mediocre teams with internal issues

Well they are not getting to A rank.
Osamu now needs to steal some trigger tech and go to the neighborhood like chika's brother did.
>>
>>141315407
By remembering Yuuma previous fights I would expect insta arm cutting from him and running after Teruya next.
>>
>>141320146
>mediocre teams

Katori squad stayed top B-rank for quite some time.
And Zaki squad is actually somewhat good. If the captain just would be willing to take some risks they would actually be pretty good.
>>
>>141314695
His biggest mistake was triggering Kakizaki's flashback by saying "thanks for the three free points".
>>
>>141313461
The turning point of the match has come. Things are looking balanced again, but if Osamu and Chika can take out Teruya, it's their win.
>>
>>141322125
Kuga is being overconfidence because of his teammates increase in skills and how it fits well these skills for him and the team
>>
>>141322273
Not sure Osamu can help Chika out with Teruya when he's busy keeping Katori squad pinned down. But yeah, if Teruya goes down then the two of them can easily annoy them to death as long as they do it before the match timer runs out.

Pft, they don't need Yuma. Osamu is going to trip Katori to death.

Alternatively, we're gonna reach bump limit in a heart beat the moment he scores his first point.

Or hear thousands of dicks exploding from excitement the moment he pins to the wall and kills Katori with Raygust blade mode + thruster javelin throw.

>>141322986
He scored his first point all the way back in the Suwa fight.

Everyone seems to forget this. Even Izumi and Ninomiya thought Osamu had never scored a point.
>>
>>141323104
I remember PUNISHED OSAMU pose when he got it.
>>
>>141322710
I know where you're coming from, but I think this fight is needed and a great opportunity for Osamu and co to grow without help. Once Hyuse joins he'll probably straight hard carry the team.
>>
>>141323104
Of course I remember.

Too bad only about 5 people on /a/ cared about it when the chapter came out.
>>
>>141323041
How many sacrifices must I make to Godzuma in order to ensure that this happens in the next chapter?
>>
>>141323104
Izumi vaguely remember. Azuma probably did as well, given he commented that match, and declared Tamakoma-2 the winner before Osamu blew Suwa away, and before Suwa even fired on Yuma who was serving as bait.

What Osamu needs to do now is score a point more or less by himself. Killing Katori squad wouldn't really be by himself given the amount of damage they've taken between Yuma and Chika, but it'd be sufficiently memorable that people would stop saying he hasn't scored points.

>>141322710
It's probably the weakest rank war battle in terms of entertainment value, but it feels "necessary" and "safe". Necessary for Ashihara to get across Tamakoma-2's new style, safe for Tamakoma-2 now implementing this style for the first time. It's not intense or exciting like other battles, but others from now on will probably be better.

Fight's not bad, though. I still don't actually think any part of this series is outright bad.

He changed how the entire series works, man.

The manga is no longer about a kid learning to cook way better with his wacky riends while facing tough opponents. Oh sure, you could say it is, and at its base it is, but the context is this completely different, inappropriately serious, far too absurd "war" that is on every level *so* fucking stupid it consistently threatens your suspension of disbelief. It's shit, I honestly don't like it now.

It's predictable that T2 is getting their redemption arc after the trainwreck that was their last match, but so far I'm really enjoying it. We're finally getting to see months of long awaited buildup pay off, and Chika and Osamu are finally playing a more active supportive role other than just being the super cannon and the keikaku guy.

>I was fine with him playing a strictly supportive role in this match
I wasn't, but that might just be because I hate Kitora and everything she stands for.

Izumi was right on point when he said that sometime the shooter is the only one left, as was Ninomiya when he said that they can't progress if only one person on the team is an actual threat. Kitora, thinking that she's such a bad-ass, told Osamu to entirely ignore Izumi and Nonomiya's advice and focus on pure support.
>>
>>141325178
Hyuse should really be filling out application forms right now. Watch the rank war later.
>>
>>141324488
I really hope the Rank Battles end already, the manga is going to die at this rate. We've been with the Rank wars for like a year now, even if there was a pause it just seems too repetitive by now.

I honestly hope Ashihara does something different now that Hyuse is joining, more rank fights would fucking kill this.

Still this current battle is too slow, it should end next chapter but it won't.

You're a fag, opinion discarded.

Nope.

Not only has World Trigger often been ranking very well since Ashihara got new pain medication, but it's selling incredibly well for a manga as usual. It's not ending any time soon.
>>
>>141327904
Because of the Galopoula invasion rankings went up. And I didn't say that the rank battles before were bad, I said that MORE rank battles will kill the manga.
>>
>>141327895
She's a pretentious moron with an ego complex.
>>
>>141327855
Galopula's mini-invasion shook things up from just being constant rank wars, and they mentioned that they still had some time before their ship leaves Meeden's orbit, so they're likely to come back after this match or the next one. Would be especially interesting if they were forced to make a second attack without their full crew because they weren't all able to form a new Trion body in time.
>>
>>141328031
That's unlikely as well.

The series was doing incredibly well throughout all of the rank wars, If it really was in dire straights its sales would have DROPPED in the middle of the wars, and Ashihara wouldn't have gotten very special treatment in regards to his spine.

You realize the whole point of B-rank battles are for introduction for characters and Tamakoma second gettin good

>>
>>141328183
You're pretty small minded.

The Rank Wars aren't just some typical "tournament arc". The way they work, by constantly adding in new things, keeps things fresh whether or not they're in this ranked battles context.

If you really think the manga would die from this, I don't know what to tell you except you're wrong.

If this was BAD, that would be one thing, but just "monotony" as you call it isn't going to drive this series into the ground. Even though things WEREN'T getting old (the four way battle was probably the best in the series) Ashihara still changed things up to keep things radically different with the mini invasion, which is still a thread at this point so it STILL won't get monotonous.

What usually kills a series that's gone on for a while is a really garbage arc or two and a sharp change in direction. It's noticeable by the rankings plummeting and the sales nosediving. Shokugeki no Souma is kind of hovering at that point right now, but WT sure isn't and I'd be real surprised if it did, even with more rank wars (it seems silly to say "even with", since the rank wars are really entertaining)

>>141322273
Do either chika or Osamu have meteora in their load outs? Could pull Akane's snipe a placed charge trick. Considering they had all the time in the world to booby trap their territory, and considered their foes might split up, I'll be disappointed if teruya gets a straight run.
>>
>>141328385
Chika doesn't need Meteora, I don't think Snipers work like that actually.

Osamu doesn't have enough Trion to use Metoeora

I think in total we have 2 rank battles left and 2 battles left
1. The top rank battle (i.e Yuba,Ikoma,Ouji)
This will leave T2 with a bare win with enough points to be tied with B-2

2. A T2, Kage and Nino + A-rank squad fight
which will be a win because at this point Hyuse will be on T2

3. Then after that the A-rank qualifications which I think involve a type of fight against a mass of trion soldiers

4. Finally they will try to get Away squad privileges which will be them facing off against jin with his black trigger

5. The border saga ends and the away mission begins

Now I must say that there is alot of thing that could be spliced in during this which I am exited for!

Now I am gonna say that it will take to chapter ~170 for B-ranks wars to finish and at least another 25ish for the whole selection process to go on

So I am gonna say it will be around chapter 200 when we finally set sail into the neighborhood
>>
>>141328385
Chika ain't getting any kills.

Also, >>141328452
yeah, this

Although a sniper could conceivably use a shooting trigger or something, there's just little point in it for most of them since closer engagements are out of the question.
>>
>>141328452
I'm referencing what Akane did against kuga. Placed some meteora around buildings and blew them up when he was close.
Depends on chika's mentality, but shooting a meteora placed as a trap might not affect her like shooting a human.

How long it usually takes to recreate a trion body?
>>
>>141328134
Oh please, she's the same person she's always been. She thinks she's more important that she is and she's obsessed with everyone treating her with exactly the right form of respect. It gets to the point that she'll refuse to give someone help is they're not sufficiently servile, despite the fact that they're both members of a military organisation trying to protect the Earth.

>in fact she's got low self-esteem
Yeah, sure. That's always used to defend people with giant egos. "B-but they're actually just sweet and vulnerable and they're just acting like they're self-assured because they're afraid!" We've seen how Kitora acts when she's alone, we've even seen her internal monologue, she's the same person inside and out.

I like Kitora even more because of her flaws.
>>
>>141328749
Apparently it depends on your trion level. The more trion you have, the more trion you invest into your trion body so the longer it takes to recreate. Chika takes several days, while Osamu regenerates in a couple of hours.

Galo has no-one on Chika's level, so they should all be able to make a new body quite comfortably in the time they have left.
>>
>>141328749
Depends how much trion a person have like for example Osamu can get back into battle in a hour or two and Chika would take a whole day.
>>
>>141328637
Not chika using meteora to shoot with. Her or kuga or Osamu laying meteora charges around the perimeter that she can detonate by sniping them. Check out nasu squad fight if you've forgotten.
>>
>>141326745
>Kitora, thinking that she's such a bad-ass, told Osamu to entirely ignore Izumi and Ninomiya's advice and focus on pure support.

She's not exactly my favorite character either, but it was legit advice.

His goal of getting to A-rank is a lofty one, and if he wants his team to speedrun their way to that point then he needs to use what he excels at to get there. He has tactical and manipulative prowess, not combat skill, so that's what he needs to be polishing at the moment.

That said, he shouldn't completely ignore Izumi's advice since he'll need to step up if his teammates go down. But point scoring should be a last resort measure, not a personal priority.
>>
>>141328917
Sure I recall that, though I don't know if Chika has room come to think of it

Also she can get a similar effect by shooting her ibis. I'm not actually sure how damaging meteora can be. Yuuma seemed unscathed when he went through those traps (the arm he lost was deliberate)

After rereading the earlier chapters, my Hyuse-hype has diminished because of how he's being set up by the author.

Specifically he was asked twice to give strategy comments... this seems to foreshadow him joining T2 as their new operator, not as their 4th combatant.

(There's no way the anti-Neighbor Kido faction would give him a Border weapon either)
>>
>>141327904
Thanks for the obligatory "manga will get canned" post
>>
>>141330455
Yes, because Hyuse with no knowledge of Meeden hardware or software and by gender has meh parallel processing is going to be an operator. Most of A-Rank is 4 combatant teams, so they need a 4th combatant.
>>
>>141330455
He's being asked about tactics to make him see how similar he is to Osamu, to help grow some sympathy. It also helps that tactics are the only thing he can talk about.

Having good tactics wouldn't help him as an operator anyway, unless he also takes over from Osamu as captain. Operators can be the ones giving commands, but most of their job is just paying attention to the battlefield. They don't need good tactical understanding unless they're also giving commands.

Osamu would just shoot out new ones as soon as they charge like last time
>>
>>141326745
You completely missed the point of what she said. People who are naturally good at attacking and have decent trion should definitely concentrate on point scoring strategies. Osamu has neither so with the little time he has to try to get to A-rank, he's just being hopeful and wasting time. This was directly proven in his last match.
>>
>>141332959
But what about when the Ace is killed early on or if you're otherwise separated? What about if you're facing something that one person alone can't deal with? What about if he's in a situation like the Aftokrator invasion and he can't rely on traditional squad structure? Their squad can't rely on totally dominating every battle, they need flexibility for when plans go wrong.

>This was directly proven in his last match.
The last match only proved that sometimes you get fucked. Sure, in retrospect Osamu should have put on a bagworm and the instant Azuma's attackers interrupted the fight but that's hindsight. At the time he had absolutely no way of knowing that Azuma was planning to snipe him through the entire building, he was entirely rational to think about trying to deal some damage in that situation.
>>
>>141333667
>But what about when the Ace is killed early on or if you're otherwise separated?
After the initial 3 matches, sure that was the question that arose. But the way that it's answered isn't to necessary to improve Osamu's point getting skills. There's no way Osamu can learn to score points on the level of the upper B-ranks and A-ranks in the time he has. He has a 1 in 3 record against Yuiga, an agent on the level of an average B-ranker. He can circumvent that by recruiting Hyuse. The best course of action for the present situation would be to make Kuga's job as easy as possible.

Right now, all he can do is support his teammates better so they can be more effective in a match. Before the match he basically told Kuga to do everything. The strings actually allowed Kuga the opportunity to occupy and take out an entire team alone, something he couldn't do before. I just don't see how you can see something wrong with that.

And on Azuma, with the amount of research he does he should've known his skill set. He got distracted and didn't protect himself when going for the point. Inexperience showed same as against Nasu, but this time it was worse because it was at the start of the match when it matter, rather than when T-2 had already won.

>>141333667
Osamu does not have the time nor the capabilities at this point to challenge any skilled B or even low ranking A-rank opponents. Longterm he SHOULD work on his offense but as of now his goal is to get on the away mission which requires him to re-prioritize getting his team to A-rank as soon as possible.

Putting all of his effort into improving his offense is well and good but if it doesn't produce results in the meanwhile it may as well be wasted effort as far as his goal is concerned. He needs to be useful now, not useful a year or two from now.

So what he can do now to make himself useful basically boils down to ensuring that he doesn't get taking out immediately (the longer he stays in, the longer he can support Kuga and Chika) and the ability to facilitate point-getting in the form of aiding Kuga.

He's accomplishing these things basically by doubling down with the Raygust (a defensive and tactical tool), Asteroid (helps him flank with Kuga and gives the team much needed midrange offense), and Spider (traps, footholds for Kuga, intimidation). It's a pretty good loadout and as we can see in this chapter, is helping to push their team comp up from what it was previously. He's a force multiplier rather than a straight up additive factor and that's a-okay right now.

Osamu is worried about getting to A rank. He tried getting points last match and look where that gothim. playing the support and tactics role is much better for him to get to that A rank.

I really need to see some of those fights, because it's just embarrassing. Yuiga looks to be a gunner without a single tactical bone in his body and Osamu even uses a weapon specifically designed to protect against gunners, but Osamu keeps losing anyway.

>>141328964
Besides he needs to learn Viper if he wants to fight efficiently. He can't spam bullets until enemy shield breaks. He needs keikaku trajectory/ leave bullets in places on standby to hit them in their blind spot. Because even weakest bullet can damage trion body it's his only way of winning as shooter.
Of course there would be other tactics if he went Shooter/defensive all-rounder with his Raygust but for this he needs to learn more Raygust tricks. So he would need to visit Ko, Renji and that one guy who dual-wields them.

Because the rest of Suzunari-1 can still get points if it comes down to it, plus Tachikawa did bring up that point, once the other two start getting better then they will rise in rank.

But seriously, glove/arm protector thing that can shoot spider, deploy shield and asteroids would be cool as fuck. And would nicely work with his left sleeve.
>>
>>141351982
It's pretty common in B-rank, it's just that T2 tends to get compared to A-rank. Every A-rank squad we've seen has had every member able to stand up for themselves if they need to, which is particularly useful considering that they don't fight as squads in defence missions. Current T2 would be absolutely useless in a real battle, Yuma would use his Black Trigger and run off leaving Chika and Osamu to support members of other teams.

The more I look at it, the more it looks like Kitora was deliberately fucking Osamu over.

>>141352867
Chika and Osamu can take out trion soldiers on their own just fine and others can use his wire zones just fine, maybe less so for attackers, but gunners and shooters can use his zones just like he's using them against Katori squad, limit their movements, pin them down, and at least leave the take down to more skilled allies.

Kitora gave Osamu something he can offer for the short term and h is doing way better now with it. Osamu is trying to get better as a fighter, but that takes times. Everyone already told Osamu that he just needs time but he doesn't have time.

That Idra was manually controlled and required two agents to beat/hold off. Also Bamster's barely fight so I don't see why you would waste wire on it.

It was controlled by a skilled user but it wasn't physically strong. It's power came from its shields and shapeshifting blades.

>Also Bamster's barely fight so I don't see why you would waste wire on it.
It's just an example. There are plenty of trion soldiers strong enough to smash through buildings and plenty of other trion soldiers with cannons, flight and other ways to effortlessly deal with the wire areas.

>>141353761
The wires are great for the rank wars, but they're shortsighted. Their use is tailored too closely for his exact current circumstances, without the general applicability he needs to actually use them on the away mission. There's no point gaming his way into another dimension only to find that there's no way to herd enemies into his wire zones.
>>
>>141351480
His current shooter style spider seems bretty gud. Deploy eight wires at once, float the bullet to any position and any angle, leave the bullets hanging for a while before activating them and just generally do whatever you want. Shame it lacks a retraction option.

Gatlin told them to go rest up and they'll think of another plan later. They will at least take a whole day off. It took Osamu less than half a day to regenerate his Trion body in the introduction arc, so I don't think any of Galo's team will be out of the fight.

It's great anti-infantry tool. And main force of the invasions are "humans". Even if you are the ones invading you can expect some kind of denser city where you could utilise spider. For example look at the young Yuuma chapters or when Moedorad explains situation in Afto.

He didn't see helmet guy. I think he only saw Reghi and gel user either way.
And even with his predictions Galo almost got their objective. With tweaks to the triggers and soldiers roster they could probably create second invasion with similar rate of success.
But yeah, Meeden has not only Jin but they also saw Galo kunai portal/wall piercer tech and started reverse engineering gel. And also saw what most of them can do.

>>141360452
They need to be on opposite sides since you need both of them active at the same time to make composite bullets
>>
>>141360452
The general rules as to which trigger has to be on which side are still a little vague, but in this case I'd go with >>141360495 since both shooter triggers need to be spawned on each hand and manually fused together.
>>
>>141360452
You need to have both types of bullet active at the same time, so it takes both triggers.

Spider seems to act a little strangely, but you definitely need to use both hands for normal bullet combos.

That's implying they only want to do one more attack. I doubt they will take the whole month to attack again. They have bail out they'll probably have a go at it every time they get a chance.

1. He can't see the future of people he hadn't seen.
2. He can't see the future of non-humans.

If they can figure these two things out they might be able to do something. Although the second point may not be of much use unless they have an AI like Replica.

Maybe Jin or the head honcho will make a deal with Galo since they're not exactly on good terms with Afto.
Hyuse uses his influence too someway.

Isn't the anime soundtrack suppose to come out today in Japan?

Does anybody plan to rip it for us?

IMO that's only a waste of resources and trion. And gives a lot of chances for Meeden to analyse Galo triggers or even capture one of their soldiers.
I would rather strike once but good.
And Meeden has had bail out for a long time. I wouldn't be surprised if they could use bail-jammer or use (I think it was this) dummy beacon to make them bail out somewhere else rather than the ship.
Especially since they should have some data on Miras portals and Galo operates at similar concept.

But I think osamu is destined to be support hero. Kuga (and perhaps that aftrokraftor guy) will be the Spidermanu.

But hey it would be cool if Osamu using his web to reach certain height or position then use his thruster to charge the enemy

He hasn't seen Yomi and Koskero which dosent give them much. Yomi can control trion soldiers which would give them a none human answer but that still isn't a lot to work with. What I'm saying is Meeden can't be the first world with problematic side effect users, so there might be solutions to handle them
>>
>>141360334
>Only saw Reghi and gel user

And the entire assault squad in the base.
Only guy he didn't saw was helmet guy.
>>
>>141361473
Oh, really? Damn, I don't remember that scene. But still - it's one unknown in his plans. Kinda two if you count his SE and if he gets rabbit-tier soldiers to operate.

>or even capture one of their soldiers.
Galo's new portal bail out makes that pretty much impossible. Border can try to block all portals with it's screen, but they can't block everything forever. all it takes is one of those little portal shards that Galo uses so much and they're out of there. Neighbours are much better at using portals than Meeden.

I also wonder if Meeden even wants to capture any neighbour soldiers. It's not like they want to attract any more attention to themselves or motivate any rescue missions.

Maybe optional triggers that aren't exclusive to one weapon can be on any side, while optionals that can only be used with a particular trigger (Thruster, Senkuu, and A-rank mods) have to be equipped right next to the weapon.
>>
>>141361368
They don't want to go back home empty handed. They already failed once and they had somewhat of an advantage Border didn't know their objective or weapons. Now it will get harder so a second attack will still have high chance of failure.
>>
>>141361535
Literally first person to greet them with Fujin to the face. He failed but since he saw them he figured out they were after the ship and Shinoda changed plans accordingly.
>>
>>141361978
That seems likely. It's also possible that Osamu had a spider in both hands for this match, putting a spider in his free slot.
>>
>>141362159
Galopoula also has a deeper knowledge of Border's strengths too now. Border has the crippling weakness if being reliant of Jin's side effect. If they can counter it then they can deal a decisive strike.
>>
>>141363071
>counter foresight

They would literally have to go insane.
>>
>>141363293
Or coat themselves in an anti side effect shield

>>141363293
You have to be like Yotaro and choose the slim options like if they were nothing.

>>141363449
Insane people tend to do the things that no other would do. And children.

>>141363293
Does he need his eyes to see the future? Because you could blind him if that were the case.
>>
>>141364075
He needs to see the person once and then I suppose that he sees the futures in his mind, blinding him would be useful if you bring new enemies that he havenĀ“t see yet.
>>
>>141364137
Can the enemy change their face or wear a mask to stop him from seeing them?
