Why would Eto not be sure whether or not Floppy would show up when she actually told Seidou to get in there?

see, I was prating. usually there's a link to a tumblr site somewhere with the summary chapter but it was buried in a post on page 100 so nevermind.



freaking LOL at saeki/torso

Not that I'm defending any particular hypothesis, but it is possible for Eto to be uncertain of whether Seidou would show up, even if she did tell him to go. Eg Aogiri might have left Seidou some choice, so he could have technically refused. Or they weren't sure whether he would be physically capable of going, as he did look pretty...unhealty. There is also the probability that Eto is playing a game of her own.

nah, it's ridiculous. I was on here earlier and I hadn't seen the summaries on page 100, just the picture, then when I came back and saw the first post on page 101 I assumed there weren't any summaries yet.

spoiler Summary
- Kanae wants to have a taste of Mutsuki to confirm if he’s good enough.
- At the entrance, Sasaki and the rest are fighting against the ghouls. Sasaki fights only with his Quinque. Urie and Shirazu join in, while Saiko tags along from behind.
- Team Ato is together with Sasaki and Qs.

Investigator: Is that Sasaki Haise?
Investigator: Hmph, that bastard mentor of Qs isn’t using his Kagune?
Ato: It’s similar…
Investigator: Huh?
Ato: No… It’s just that his movement is similar to Arima Special Class.
Sasaki: (Mutsuki-kun…)

- The skinhead man who was together with Nutcracker appears.

Shirazu: That guy… The big bald bastard who was together with Nutcracker…!!
Sasaki: …Koukaku, it’s huge!

- The skinhead man has the power to destroy the pillars.
- Sasaki takes his attack.

Sasaki: Ugh…
Sasaki: (He looks strong… This one… I should cooperate with Ato Associate Special…)

- At that moment, he receives a message from Matsuri.

Matsuri: Sasaki Rank One should go straight ahead.
Sasaki: !?
Ato: Leave this to me.

- Sasaki follows the order and goes straight ahead.
- Outside the auction hall, Naki is fighting against Akira and the rest.
- Miza takes down one of the investigators.
- Miza: S-rate Ghoul, Bikaku, Sanmaiba 三枚刃 (Tripple Blades)

Naki: Miza!!
Miza: (I told you not to call by my name, idiot…!!)

- The ghoul side is winning, until Akira appears.
- Akira’s Quinque: Rinkaku, Fueguchi. <—- Probably made of Hinami’s father’s Kagune.

Akira: Back off, I will do this.
Naki: I’ve seen your face somewhere before!!
Naki: But I absolutely don’t remember your name.

- Hinami is talking to some Aogiri Tree members.
- She says that “Rabbit” doesn’t need support, and they need to send help to Naki and Miza.
- She also finally realizes that Saeki (Torso) isn’t with her.
- Mutsuki is fighting against Kanae.
- Saeki appears and tackles Kanae. He proceeds to beat Kanae up.
- Mutsuki runs when he sees Saeki.

Saeki: Ah… Why!? It’s me, Torso!!
Saeki: I’m sorry for attacking you before. Hey, Tooru!
Kanae: I… won’t… let… you… escape…

- Kanae hits Mutsuki with his Kagune from behind. It pierces through Mutsuki’s stomach.
- Meanwhile, Dr.Kanou and Eto are watching everything from the monitors.

Kanou: Hmm… The battle has begun. Eto-san… How about it? Isn’t it time to get “Tooru”?
Eto: Indeed.
Eto: How is it? Can you do it? Takizawa-kun?
Seidou: Hurry up already. I’m hungry.

- Seidou looks totally crazy-looking, wearing hoodie, white hair, and black nails. <—- Aka white-haired Kaneki 2.0, Eto sure keeps her promises.


according to the makyun site, Kanou does not speak Tooru, but owl.

Kanou: For the most part, it seems the situation of the fight is moving along.
Kanou: Eto-san!
Kanou: What do you think? Isn’t it about time that we let out the ‘Owl’?

Makyun translated this part earlier. Apparently Owl and Tooru are similar so that's where the translator went wrong.

Thank god Mutsuki doesn't have more people after him.

Well Makyun was able to tell the difference between Owl and Tooru. Plus they've been doing translations for a long time so they're experienced.

we dont really, thats why i like getting the spoiler translations, it gives you a broader insight¯_(ツ)_/¯
heres makyuns full translation:

Situation of each members:

In the big hall: Suzuya vs Ayato
In the waiting room backstage: Kanae confronts Mutsuki
Entrance: Sasaki Squad, Atou Squad, Ooshiba Squad (Going north to the center building)
Outside: Mado Squad, Isai Squad, Tateshima Squad (Battling against Naki’s group who are wearing white suits)
Hirako Squad, Shimoguchi Squad, Shibashi Squad (In charge of sealing the escape routes)
The CCG members are given orders.

Communication: Associate Special Class Atou, continue making your way to the center.
Communication: The Mado Squad are to report immediately after you get an idea on your opponent’s abilities.

[Mutsuki’s Side]

Mutsuki and Kanae have a confrontation.

Mutsuki: Don’t come any closer! Y-You’re one of the people from the Auction, right…?!
Kanae: (Those are some good eyes…)
Kanae: …Don’t order me around you tra—
Kanae: (…Wait, if I call her trash and curse at her, that would mean that I’m providing Shuu-sama trash…)

Kanae approaches Mutsuki.

Kanae: First off, kindly let me confirm something.
Mutsuki: C-confirm…?
Kanae: You’re… taste!! (Geschmack!!)


[Entrance]

Sasaki and the rest fight against the ghouls.

Ghoul: W-what’s with that ‘gray guy’…!! It’s as if…

Sasaki was fighting using only a Quinque but the Ghouls are surprised with how he fights. Sasaki continues to take down ghouls one by one.

Ghoul: Ugghhh!! Aaaahhh!!

Urie and Shirazu are also engaging in combat.

Shirazu: RAAAHHH!!!

Saiko runs white shouting.

Saiko: Uwooo!

The members of the Atou Squad watches Sasaki fight.

Squad Member A: So that’s Sasaki Haise…
Squad Member B: Geh, so that’s the Quinx mentor bastard? Isn’t he going to use his kagune?
Atou: It’s similar…
Squad Member C: Hmm?
Atou: Ah nothing. He moves just like Special-Class Arima.

Sasaki: (Mutsuki-kun…)

Sasaki continues on while following the rest of the investigators but Skinhead, the man who was with Nutcracker before, appears.

Shirazu: That guy… He’s that bald bastard with Nuts!!
Sasaki: …A koukaku, how huge!

Skinhead begins his attack. He’s strong enough to be able to destroy the surrounding pillars.

Sasaki takes the attack head-on.

Sasaki: Ack…
Sasaki: (He’s pretty strong… If I could cooperate with Associate Special Class Atou…)

A communication floods in.

Communication: Rank 1 Sasaki, go straight ahead.
Sasaki: !?

Sasaki worries about leaving it to the rest.

Atou: Leave this to us.

Sasaki proceeds.

[Outside]

Akira and the rest are engaging in combat against Naki’s group.

CCG Member A: As expected of Naki… he’s strong! How many did he take out?!
CCG Member B: I-I don’t know! GAHH!

The CCG Member dies from Miza’s attack.

One of the investigators, wears glasses and plump in appearance, lunges to Miza.

Numa: I’ll go!! OOOHHH!!

Miza kills him by cutting his body.

CCG Member: NUMAAA!!!!!

Triple Blades (Miza)
S-Rate Bikaku

CCG Member: It… It’s the ‘Triple Blades’!! That bastard… So there are two S-Rates?!
Naki: Mizaa!!
Miza: (Don’t call me by my name you fool!)

Miza’s subordinates show up around Miza, all of them are wearing the same mask. Miza instructs her subordinates.

The battle is currently in Naki’s group’s favor. The CCG members grow anxious.

Akira shows up and cuts up some of the ghouls’ bodies.

Quinque
Rinkaku: Fueguchi

Akira: Stand down. I will handle this.
Naki: I’ve seen your face somewhere before! But I definitely forgot your name!

[Hinami’s Side]

Hinami is on the rooftop of the building. A lot of the Aogiri members are gathered as well.

Aogiri Member: Until the head of the team is close to the Hall…
Aogiri Member: We can’t contact majority of the Aogiri…!!
Aogiri Member: The ‘Spine User’ is at Naki’s location… that means she’s here…!!
Aogiri Member: …Yotsume-sama. (refers to Hinami?)

Hinami: (‘Spine User’…)
Hinami: …Mmnn, I’m fine… I’m fine.
Hinami: The Aogiri in the Main Hall, retreat. Please gather on the rooftop.
Hinami: Rabbit doesn’t need any back-up.
Hinami: Please re-organize as we will send assistance to Naki and Miza’s group. The escort team will continue with the defense…

Hinami notices that Torso is no longer around.

Hinami: Huh… Saeki-san…?

[Mutsuki’s Side]

Kanae hits Mutsuki. Kanae gets a taste of Mutsuki’s blood.

Kanae: !! Ah! This…
Kanae: IMPACT! (BLITZ!)

Tears run down Kanae’s cheek.

Kanae: (I’ve found it.)
Kanae: Let us go home… Gloa…
[idk if that’s a German word, it probably is but it’s pronounced as growa]

At the next moment, Kanae gets tackled by someone.

Kanae: !?!?

The one who tackled him was Torso. Kanae falls to the ground with Torso on top of him. Torso relentlessly punches his face.

Kanae: What are you…!! Autsch! Autsch!
Mutsuki: …!
Torso: *wheezes*

Torso faces Mutsuki.

Torso: (You’re safe.)
Torso: I’m relieved.

But Mutsuki runs away.

Torso: Ah… Why?!
Torso: …Oh! It’s me! I’m Torso!!
Torso: I’m sorry for hitting you last time! Hey, Tooru!

Kanae’s face is all beaten up.

Kanae: I won’t… let you… escape…!

Mutsuki gets pierced from the back with Kanae’s kagune.

[Kanou’s Side]

Kanou is looking at multiple monitors.

Kanou: Hmm… For the most part, it seems the situation of the battle is moving along.
Kanou: Eto-san!
Kanou: What do you think? Isn’t it about time that we let out the ‘Owl’?

Eto: Sounds good.
Eto: Say…
Eto: Think you can do it? Takizawa-kun.

Seidou: Hurry up. I’m hungry.

Seidou is shown, he now has white hair and his nails are black.

Narration: People sometimes change for worse, in this wrong world…

Wow yaay for the translation!! So TorsoxTooru will be another ship that the fans will support? Things really take a weird turn

Naki amuses me like always, gosh he already forgot about Akira! And poor Hinami is taking a trip through memory lane.

So since Ayato has taken over Touka's alias and even Hinami adapts to that, does that mean that Touka has a different mask now?

Sasaki is pwning his enemies Arima style! This is such a big foreshadowing of what we can expect from him. I think they will promote him after this mission.

Now I'm getting really curious about the pages.

Btw: I'm really starting to believe that Floppy is Amon.

XD I'm starting to ship them too. Weird ship, but hey that's what anime and manga is about.

I'm not feeling very sorry for Hinami either, I'm more like; girl what happened to you? Past cute innocent Hinami is gone and I want to know what happened in those 3 years.

Still, it might have been better to make a cover that reflects more either the current plot or at the very least some of the peculiarities of the manga. This cover just seems like pandering to the masses or just taking the easy path.

I'm sure you know better than him what cover he should do. But i forgot, that most of the people here could write a better manga and they would be disappointed if Ishida would do something wrong.

I feel like you shouldn't criticize(or give your opinion about) something you know nothing about. You can say that you like something or you dislike something you know nothing about, but don't try to tell anyone how he should do something to make it better.
Oh and i fail to realize where you used that sarcasm. I'm dumb like that. If you show me, i'll tell you how it makes me feel.
Edit: I have nothing to do and maybe you had a hard time understanding what i meant. I'ma give you an example.
You watch someone painting, you never did something like that in your whole life. He did that for most of his life. He shows you that painting and you tell him how he should make it better. That is not you "giving your opinion".

That is not how criticism works.

Plus, what makes you think I know nothing about covers? For all you know, I might make covers for a living.
Well, I don't, but I still am entitled to my opinion and have the freedom to share it. You (or Ishida for that matter) can ignore it, if you want.

Oh, and I'm sure making covers is not something so specific that there are no transferable skills involved. Hence, even if I haven't made a single cover in my life, I still might be able to provide a good critique.

Edit: Maybe after some more real life experience, you will understand how criticism and opinions work. Hang in there!

Edit 2: The sarcasm in my post was the irony intended to mock your post. Do you need more clarification?

Still, it might have been better to make a cover that reflects more either the current plot or at the very least some of the peculiarities of the manga. This cover just seems like pandering to the masses or just taking the easy path.


Yeah that's true it might have been better to make one that represented the current plot, at least that's how IShida did it with TG. But I am really digging the parallelism thing, it's like when you have the two mangas you can make a comparison of how each character changed....oh so probably we will know about Rize by chapter 5....and does this mean that :Re will have 14 vol too?

Ishida added Naki and Uta in some of the covers and both had nothing to do with the plot for the most part. Same goes for volume 13's cover where it had Arima's image and he only appeared for a single panel in that volume.

I can see a Hinami cover for the next volume given the potential conflict she will "maybe" have with Akira in the next few chapters. Maybe getting to see Sasaki too.

I think that when Amon shows up, our dear Urie will end up leaving with him. Because i don't think that Amon ended up staying with Aogiri and Urie will see in him someone that could potentially help him take his revenge. But who knows what Amon is up to.

Yeah honestly what's on the cover doesn't matter too much to me as long as it looks cool. Looks like he's planning to highlight a bunch of the old returning characters, or like Gaby said maybe it will be a parallel with the TG covers. Either way the art is awesome, love how Touka looks on it.

My first thought on the vol 2 cover: Holy crap who is that feminine looking guy?!

After reading the posts... ooh... Does Ishida realize that Touka looks very... not Touka there?

I like the parallelism idea for the volumes and nice to see the old characters. yaaay!!!

I feel like I want to hibernate... and wake up 3 years later, looking as pretty as I do now XD so I can enjoy TG re all in one go like TG.

Happy happy happy!!!

I feel you....I feel myself getting old with exasperation in waiting for the next chapter, and when I have it, it's like waiting the whole year for chocolate cake and only having one thin slice...it is not enough, and again the waiting...to only have 20 pages.
And I not mean any disrespect for Ishida, I know he must be working really hard, but times like this I am thankful for novelists, who only published their books with a complete story..of course only if they are not planning to write a trilogy or in rowling case a septology :D Now I am rambling :P

we only got to see 4-5 panels of Touka and she already got a cover???? I mean no disrespect to her fans but she didn't deserved it even though Ishida is doing parallelism from the first manga.

Mutsuki should have got a cover tbh

Neither did Uta, Naki and Arima deserve to appear in the covers. They only appeared for 1 chapter in their respective volumes yet no one had any complaints about them.

So wait, people are arguing about why a character is on the cover? Like really? Unless you actually buy the volume, it don't really matter.

Nobody was arguing, some ppl where commenting, someone took offense on it and then ppl got provoked...you know the same old story on boards.

lol am I the only one who totally expecting Touka to be on the 2nd volume cover.

She's associated with the tarot no 2, the high priestess, after all so it all makes sense to have her as the V2 cover.

Besides, V1 if I'm not mistaken ended at chapter 9, with her re-appearance in the last page so Ishida as usual had all this planned ahead. It's also a nice parallel to the sequel but I don't think he will completely follow the prequel since the Quinx must have their own volume cover later.

I had no idea about what what the cover would have looked like, nor was I expecting anything... cept I didn't thought Ishida would draw a masculine Touka...

I'm not really bothered that Touka is on it... but let's hope Ishida won't draw Hinami masculine too, because I'll start making jokes. XD

Happy happy happy!!!
