| THIS IS AN MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- so Sadakiyo knows Friend for nearly 40 years but now he decided to walk his own path & not follow Friend anymore, such a great accomplishment for Sadakiyo. |
| "Every man shall reap what he has sown, from the highest lord to the lowest gutter rat. And some will lose more than the tips off their fingers, I promise you. They have made my kingdom bleed, and I do not forget that" |
| This chapter really moved me... in particular the showing of that single photograph of Sadakiyo's face when he was young. Really captivating... |
| He's known friend since then, huh? Wasn't it Fukubei who invited Sadakiyo into Kenji's "HQ"? I can't remember... |
 |
| Good for him betraying Friend.. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Okay, so for some reason I actually thought Fukubei was the culprit (first time was when he made that dramatic bit in taking out the dude w/ the laptop, I mean why go through all of that in the first place, it was impractical. But also when they were in that virtual reality thing they said that the person w/ Sadakiyo was friend, and Fukubei was Sadakiyo's friend so it makes sense that it was him ...) I really wonder if Fukubei is friend, and if so how he lived (they never did confirm his death) |
 |
| I really feel sorry for Sadakiyo. I'm glad he betrayed friend. The scene where he saw the photograph was really touching. |
 |
| I'm glad I stuck it out reading this manga. In the beginning, I couldn't get into the characters or the art style, but the story is getting deep and the suspense is monumental. Can't wait to read the next chapter. |
| So it was Fukubei who became Sakakiyo's friend back at that base. It's nice that the scene which was told from Fukubei's perspective back in the early volumes (at the classmates' meeting before the timeskip) is finally told from Sadakiyo's POV. And that dialogue at the rooftop before Fukube's death makes more sense now. Although it's still strange to assume that Fukubei is indeed "Friend", things just don't add up. |

| Seems more and more likely Fukubei is friend. Especially considering the dialogue they had under the Teru Teru Bozo. Also a very emotional chapter overall. Gotta feel bad for Sadakiyo, really like the callback to when he was crying in front of the student that was beaten up several chapters ago. |
stAtic91 said: He's known friend since then, huh? Wasn't it Fukubei who invited Sadakiyo into Kenji's "HQ"? I can't remember... Yes re-read chapter 27 |
 |
| I thought it would be fukubei too but if he was that, he would have rejected Sadakiyo like he confessed before he died, but it turned out that the kid and sadakiyo became friends. So I doubt friend is fukubei + he had a family to take care of. But still, it's not impossible that he is friend |
 |
| And my balls can rest now ๐ |
| "It's always ok to not be ok" Amazing chapter, Sadakiyo's past revealed, thanks to Fukubei by not leaving Sada alone as everyone did. I'm still concerned about Sada's face in Koizumi vr, if he really not Friend, why does his face appear to be Friend face in the vr world, was it arranged by Friend or is it just a story Sada made up, I'm not even sure at this point... "Amen Somen, Hiya Somen Amen Somen, Hiya Somen" |
 |
| First Otcho then Sadakiyo... I wonder how many other classmates or people we're going to think are Friend who turn out not to be |

| @Pirating_Ninja Yeah this bugs me too. Fukube mentioned that he and 1 other person were also visiting the Secret Headquarters. And then it was revealed that Sadakiyo was visiting with the Friend. The equation is pretty easy... How did nobody connect the dots yet? (replying to a 10 year old comment feels weird) |
