Hyunckel is ripped this episode lol

He and Hym's battle was both tense mentally and physically. I like how Hyunckel follows his ambition in this fight and aims forward without holding back. One of the most determined characters I've seen in this show.

Hyunckel showing again why he's my favorite character in this series having his knockdown drag out final fight with Hym! Both unleashing their most powerful aura fist attacks. On equal ground charging right at each other as Hyunckel swoops under Hym fist to deliver his own. Hyunckel redirecting Hym attack was a genius move. Knowing he couldn't break the orihalcum himself Hyunckel knew he had to use Hym power against him. I'm glad they could reconcile right at the end, Hym has no more malice in his heart. He only wants to confront his rival in a pure way. Hyunckel offering Hym healing from the others was nice. Can't have nice things though as of all things the King chess piece, and the remaining other pieces, crash the reconciliation. Another one of those twists in this show where its super surprising because its just something I glossed over even thinking about. Maximum is a tough looking king piece, whom in chess are the least mobile but most important so we'll see what powers he can unleash. On top of Mystvearn dropping in on Dai, Popp and Maam for their big fight against him.

Ok this one made me feel a lot better about the Hym fight. I was pretty annoyed that his first action was to fight hyunckel, but now that they put a little majin Vegeta esque character development twist on it, I’m ok with it.

I have absolutely no idea how Hyunckel can make it out of this fight next week. Has no strength left and is hurt, please don’t let my boy die. Hype for next week

I wish more people were watching this show, it deserves so much more attention and love. Really is shonen done right.

Nice fight between Hym and Hyunckel. Hyunckel truly an invincible and immortal warrior by manage to taking down the promoted pawn. Then he ended up taking the death from Hym and let him live another day. This is kinda have the similar vibe when Popp trying to save Hadlar from several episode before. Too bad for Hadlar don't have much chance like Hym, because his fate already sealed, not like his pawn...

Talk about Hadlar and his pawn. The sneaky bastard King Vearn is actually giving Hadlar a full set of a chess army, not just a five pieces. Here i thought Hadlar was a King with all the important chess type as his royal guard. But turns out Vearn also create another 11 pieces including the real King, behind. Daaaannnggg.

Idk how Hyunckel can get out of those great pinch after taking a lot of shit damage when facing Hym and the demon minions previously. And where the hell Avan and Leona? I may thinking that the next episode might be the end of Hyunckel remarks as an invincible and immortal being. But, let's pray it's wrong you guys, so Hyunckel can living up his meme name till the end of this series...

The Hym - Hyunckel fight was pretty epic, and it's interesting how Hyunckel spared him and wanted him to join (at least for his recovery) his group, but well I didn't expect so many new chess pieces to appear, there's even a king now and Hyunckel has to fight all of them alone, I doubt he can actually do it this time to be honest

Well until now we had three big death flags, and one more upcoming...

- First one: Ep 21, when Leona said this might be the last chance for Popp to confess to Maam, Popp failed --> He's dead later
- Second: Ep 52, when Baran promised to Dai a re-match after defeating Vearn --> He's also dead
- Third: Ep 79, when Hyunckel said this was his last battle --> ???
- Last: Ep..., ... --> ???

Hyunckel decided to fight Hym with his bare hands and it worked, but now the Cleaner of Veran's Palace King Piece Maximum has arrived with his chess army replica that Hyunckel has to fight alone.

It was a pretty entertaining shonen anime that kinda loses points on certain tropes.
