Is the newbie trio going to try to pick on Hyuse?

Also, just Kogetsu? Well, it might be just for the first day, or maybe he chose it because it was the fastest way to climb the ranks, but I hope he won't be just another senku kogetsu user. There'll probably be more.

Yup, new idiots trio. History repeat itself.

Huyse choose Kogetsu, maybe when he reach B rank he will chose all rounder. Shooter or gunner is a question.

And that too flashy Huyse, too flashy.

- as chippo predicted, Hyuse takes atracker position because T-2 needs a vanguard. But surprisingly he uses kougetsu.
- lol hyuse reached B rank in a few hours already thanks to Border new system. Rather than awarding c-rankers with starting points arbirtarily, it seems that now starting points are awarded based on performance during 5 round of 5 people free for all. Hyuse started with 3000 as a result and harvested another 1000 from the idiot trio. Also, he's popular with girls (they willingly joined his group and got defeated so he would remember them), while he's totally hated by guys (they ganged on him)
- lol at Hyuse's competitiveness. 1.5 second against trion soldier was not good enough for him. He wanted to retry until he beats the record holder (yuuma)
- hyuse understandingly steamrolls the b-ranked attackers in handycap solo wars (one trigger only, cuz it's unfair for hyuse who only has 1 trigger atm). Even Tsuji, who got roped unknowingly, lost 2-5. Next week, vs Ikoma with 11177 solo points. I wonder if Jin is the 5th attacker because his solo points were frozen when he became S rank.
- it seems that Tsuji remarks that Hyuse's fighting style is very different from anyone at border. It's akin to someone who can fight with real swords (not sure if this lasr remark refers to Hyuse or Ikoma, most likely Hyuse)

I think shooter is better for hyuse. It's more versatile than gunner, and the gunner's range advantage is not that needed anyway because hyuse has high trion.

I somehow got this configuration

Main : Kogetsu, Senkuu, Shield, Chameleon
Sub : Asteroid, Viper, Shield, Bagworm

Edit: Now that I think about it, if Hyuse is really confident with his skill, he might omits his bagworm altogether.

Shiro Kikuchihara could be the 5th attacker. He has a cool SE and during his selection/practice session of the away mission he fought with Jin and he said that Jin was not a tough opponent, though I doubt Jin fought him seriously! So he might be the attacker no. 5.

I seriously expected him to go with Scorpion. Oh well, this should be interesting, also he could still add more things later on after getting a combat Trigger.

That's Miura from Katori squad.

Koarai (7280), Sasamori (7452), Tomoe (7009), and Miura (7407) all lost to Hyuse 0-5 or 1-5 (Sasamori). Koarai is the matchmaker in the group, roping Tsuji and Ikoma against Hyuse.

What's surprising is how high Miura's points are, considering he got clowned by Osamu. Tomoe did better against Yuuma and yet his points are smaller. Granted, Miura was distracted, but still.

BTW, Kikuchihara's BBF stat and performance is too poor to be the 5th. He's probably 9000+ at most, around Yoneya level.

The second funniest thing about this chapter is actually the TOC ranking (Ikoma poking Arashiyama's cheek is the first). Compared to the chapter ranked last week, the rank is middling. Clearly the first hyped chapter of round 6 < eggplant curry.

He knows what the fans want to see, but also makes it reasonable. As good as Hyuse is, steamrolling these guys while they use combat Triggers would be hard to swallow.

Also we are already getting more Ikoma, I hope it stays that way.

Now, I have a question, does border's individual ranking truly represent the actual hierarchy of the combatants? I mean, they rank the attackers based on their total points, so could it be that Ikoma is more powerful than the other attackers above him- rank wise?

No, but the stat spread a fairly good indication on how someone will perform. In general, agents that have around the same solo points (with Kage and Yuuma as expections) or agents with stats comparable to their peers with the same position (attackers with attackers, gunners with gunners, etc) are roughly of the same performance.

Though I don't think having their full trigger sets would have helped them that much. Kogetsu users are pretty much rely on their fundamentals.

With Tsuji it might not have been that different, unless Senkuu helps him more than I expect.
The others have Grasshopper or Chameleon both of which give them far more options, Tomoe doesn't but he has Hound so. I think they would at least get 1-2 more rounds than this.

How many of the Border agents know that Hyuse is actually a neighbor - an Aftokrator?

So far the people aware of are:

Jin, Konami, Kizaki, Torimaru, Osamu, Chika, Yuma, Usami, Arashiyama, Tokieda (I don't think Arashiyama told to Kitora and Satori), and who else do you think??

I feel like Ikoma has a swordsmanship background. Maybe involved in kenpo clubs (or something similar) before joining border. I hope the first two rounds is Ikoma's loss and only because he keeps trying to use senkuu when he doesnt have it. Then he wins the next three when he gets used to just kogetsu.

I wouldn't be surprised if he did. His Senkuu attack is very similar to the "Quick Draw" style you see by some anime swordsmen. Hard to pin down exactly what the style is since it's normally exaggerated.

More than anything though, could Hyuse break that cool and casual exterior of Ikoma's? What food recommendation will Ikoma give Hyuse? Can the solo matches be changed to allow for 3 points for the last win? Should the title of the Manga be changed to "World Trigger. ft. Ikoma!" ?

Let's all wait two weeks to find out!

Well it's hard to say since we don't know what the old system was like. We know it definitely wasn't combat training against Trion soldiers, judging by the reaction of C-Ranks to that back in enlistment arc.
So it probably was basic training like the things Yuma did. Would make sense that if they can already do them well to give them some kind of boost. Also maybe testing their physical abilities and athletics etc.

It's possible they had one on one duels as well. In this chapter it just felt like Border didn't have the time to do that anymore, so they came up with this method to judge a larger pool of people faster. Think of Hunter X Hunter Greed Island arc (spoilers)


Probably not as well detailed or accurate (not to mention it could be unfair for some) compared to the earlier method, but it gets the job done + raises competitive levels which is good.

I can see Hyuse becoming friend with Tachikawa and enjoy fighting each other. Tachikawa wouldn't even mind Hyuse being a neighbor since he is catholic, just like Jin.

I have been wondering for a while, the whole ranking system and virtual combat process were to improve the combat level of the Border's agents; so don't the Black Trigger users need to practice in virtual space and whet their skills? Or, the Black Trigger holders only fight during the practice session of Away Mission and the selected A rank units fight against the BT holder as a team and improve their teamwork.

Previously I'd been wondering who they would get drawn against in the last two matches. Nino & Kage is guaranteed at some point, so I'm presuming they'll be together as the last match.

After this chapter, I'm expecting Ikoma to beat Hyuse, and for the next match to include Ikoma and Yuba (maybe Azuma as well)

Well, Jin is teaching people how to use Fujin, it's just not something Ashihara wants to show us yet so we just have to assume Fujin training happens off screen. Also Amou just wipes the virtual map in his BT form so Border either assumes his training is unnecessary as long as his targets are hordes of Trion soldiers, or they just still don't have the right set up to let him train. Either way we first need to see more of Amou before we inquire about his BT training, he has criminally low screen time ;_;

^^ He looked so bored XD. And he was still smiling during the first bout. Poor him.

BTW, Hyuse defeated 16 people, times 120 gives us 1920. Plus training, he got 2000, so this means he only scored 80 in training, rather than the perfect score of 100 that Yuuma got. I wonder which type of training was his weakness. Stealth? Mobility?

I think we'll see Yuba team next. Also, I want indoor map next round. I hope the next enemy chooses museum map.

According to BBF, Hyuse Abilities are:

Trion--Attack--Defense/Support--Mobility--Skill--Range--Command--Special Tactics--Total
18------12---------------24--------------13-------9------4-----------6-----------10 --------------96


Though it is based on Lymphiris's but since his attack, defence and mobility are respectively 12, 24, and 13 so it's very surprising that he didn't manage to score 100 in the training. It would be great to see Ikoma pushing Hyuse in the next chapter.

I think if Hyuse lost 2 against someone with 8k, he could easily lose a full set against Ikoma. Not that it wouldn't be competitive, but you don't get to 11k for no reason and you can see that even a 1000 point jump nabbed another win over the agents in the mid 7000's.

Good chapter.

I was right when I thought Hyuse would start with 1000 points, but I suprised he rose B rank in a half of day. But I'm not complaining of the new way to become B rank, if someone has a 19 wins 0 defeats, he merits to be B rank.

it's interesting Hyuse takes kotetsu as a main trigger. It has a some consequences. I think except Miwa, all kotetsu users has Senku too. If he isn't a except too, it means he has a free slot in main trigger and 2 free slots in sub triggers after he adds shields and bagworm..

For me, Ouji's way would be interesting for Hyuse, so it would be something like:

Main: Kotetsu, Senku, viper, shield
Sub: scorpion, Viper, Bagworm, Shield.

Although, Maybe be he can change Scorpion for a movility trigger. Since he has a high movility with Lampiris, maybe he wants to strengthen it.
It would be sad if Hyuse doesn't use shooter (o gunner) triggers because he has a high level of trion.

Hyuse doesn't look like the funniest person in a feast..

Maybe now the training gives less points.

Well, I think Hyuse will not rise much his Def/Supp because he wants to be an ace, but his high movility makes me to think he maybe takes a mobility trigger for strenghten it.(teleporter, grasshopper or Idaten)

I think if Hyuse lost 2 against someone with 8k, he could easily lose a full set against Ikoma. Not that it wouldn't be competitive, but you don't get to 11k for no reason and you can see that even a 1000 point jump nabbed another win over the agents in the mid 7000's.


It looks like Ikoma would be the wall for Hyuse in the same way than Murakami is the wall for Yuuma

I'm not sure Ikoma is good only with senku. Well, after all, we know that in two weeks

Scrutinizing the chapter, I realize that C-rank solo point award system has become really generous.

The C-rank idiot trio don't like fighting strong people, so it's likely that Hyuse fought them only once each in a 10 or so rounds match. Hyuse got 1016 from the 3 of them. In chapter 38, when Yuuma did this, he only got 225. So the current system is 4.5 times more generous point wise.

Furthermore, we know that the system awards more point if the point discrepancy was big.
- When Yuuma did it, he was at 1100 fighting against the leader at 2358 and his followers at 200-300 points lower than the leader. Around 900-1258 points difference.
- Hyuse is at 3000 and is fighting against the leader at 3792 and his followers at lower points than the leader (assumption). So 800 points difference at most. But Hyuse still gets 4.5 times more points despite the lower points difference.

Just as comparison, for official agents (not sure if the point system is the same as the C-rank one)
- in chapter 93, Yuuma at 4553 winning 21-9 against Midorikawa at 9985 (around 5500 points difference) only nets 264 points.
- We don't know the points difference with Yuiga, but Osamu only lost around 100 - 200 points after losing 48-152 against Yuiga.
So far, the B-rank system seems consistent with Yuuma's C-rank system experience under assumption that Yuuma won 30 times against the idiots (10 rounds each).

The only other explanation is that Hyuse did 4.5 times more matches with the idiot trio than Yuuma did, around 45 matches with each idiot (ignore diminishing return at the moment). This seems unlikely, due to timing. Hyuse started his orientation sometime before Round 6, Round 6 was 45 minutes and Ikoma just got back from it while T-2 are still not back from it to check up their new member (I suspect they'll do so next chapter).Round 6 evening session start time is still far away because Tsuji and Koarai still have a lot of time to hang around. I think at most we have 3 hours or so after Hyuse started his orientation. So in this 3 hours or so, it's unlikely that Hyuse did 135 matches against the 3 idiots while doing his orientation, training and matches with the B-rankers. Even if 1 round against the C-rankers lasts only 1 minute, 135 matches already take 2+ hours.

So, not only we have a new start point system, but we also get 4.5 times more generous point system. It certainly is convenient that all of these changes are made just in time for Hyuse's enrollment. That said, even without these changes, I'm confident Hyuse can rank up in a week anyway, so on the upside, these changes make the story drags less.

If this system change also applies to the B-rank solo battle system, I think we can see Hyuse reaching 6000 after this day. Yuuma and Kage will also reach 8000 in no time.
