Let this stand as record: I'm only 'scanlating' these now because I find it really entertaining to piss off Wild Fang. Also, the scanners actually put effort into scanning this magazine edition, which I dearly appreciate. Might've just gone with my standard greentext otherwise. Anyway, we're starting off with our weekly Kaiou and weekly selected poem: Chen Kaiou (who?), and "Dark Path" by Malcolm Lowry. As always, I hope that you find interest in the poem.
Dark Path
"By no specific dart of gold, No single singing have I found This path. It travels, dark and cold, Through dead volcanoes underground.
Here flicker yet the sulphurous Charred ends of fire long since I knew. Long since, I think, and thinking thus, Ignite, daemonically; anew.
Yet, burning, burning, burning Lord, Know how this path must likewise come Through multitudinous discord The awful and the long way home." -Lowry, 1929

Aren't we so lucky that the raw uploaders were kind enough to appropriately filter/level this chapter? I really do appreciate it.

"Hero" was the only lone word I could pragmatically use there. "eiyuu" (jap word) does conventionally mean "hero", but it has more of a connotation of like "JFK was a great man". It doesn't quite make sense to say that Pickle did "a great man's feat" as much as it does to say that he did "a heroic feat".

"The ghost bled." "As expected of a ghost!"
Charles Kelly
End of chapter, and then there's an ad or something that I didn't read.
Hudson Gutierrez
blah blah blah, OAD in December, blah blah, apparently the deadline for reservations/advance ordering is October 8th. So... order it soon if you're gonna order it, I guess.
That's all I got today.
Jonathan Brooks
Only been in a few threads so I don't know much about this mc, but I just can't seem to like him.
Luis Ramirez
>Aren't we so lucky that the raw uploaders were kind enough to appropriately filter/level this chapter? They didn't, it's the magazine's digital release.
Julian White
I appreciate the effort though it boils down to the usual "Pickle is tough, Musashi is the greatest thing in existence"
Joshua Flores
Why not? Personality, presentation, design? Because for a lot of people, it's all three. He's essentially been bowling over the entire established cast of the manga for almost the entirety of this fourth series. Upsetting to many readers for obvious reasons. I liked him for a good while, but then it just got *too* bulldozer-ish for even me.
Leo Smith
It is? Fuckers. I'm going to have to have a word with the guy in charge, as soon as I can fucking find him. Hides himself really well.
Noah Smith
Oh, and he's not the MC - he's the villain. The MC is one of the people arbitrarily reacting in the stands. This'n.
Joseph Adams
Probably because when pickles fought baki, Baki took some crazy damage that actually effected the fight. Sure this guy got a bite taken out of him but it really doesn't seem to have any effect. So yeah probably his steam rolling effect.
Jacob White
Just remember that unlike other magazines, Champion releases digitally with a five-day delay from print. So if you want really fast releases, it's not going to be an option regardless of how much better it looks.
Xavier Harris
So, the whole idea here is that Musashi is chopping up Pickle for fame, right?
And Yujiro didn't snap Musashi's neck because Musashi intrigued and entertained him?
Musashi better start getting punched in the face hard fast, or this is going to turn into a fucking snoozefest.
Eli Clark
That one guy is gonna murder him. Motobi or something.
Tyler Harris
>cave man >taller than normal man >lived same time as dinosaurs This will never not trigger my autism.
Gavin Gutierrez
did he ever defeat his father one day?
Connor Morales
Baki?
William Russell
thats an adorable page
Andrew Peterson
Well yeah, but why the fuck do they release the physical if they can just wait for the digital? I much prefer using these than fuckin' pic related. Good God, I would rather fucking kill myself.
He's a spooky ghost, not a caveman
Carson Jenkins
yes
Wyatt Turner
He fights his dad, but his dad doesn't really seem to treat it like a fight. He spanks him for being ill mannered at one point. At the end the dads like "k I give up, you win you're now the strong being on thsi planet".
Benjamin Brooks
no, but he ate some balling air dinner with him
Cooper Green
You're now the strongest being*
Nolan Jackson
i know
I also know and he got a really BIG hug!
I was asking if he REALLY defeat him someday
Chase Sullivan
>Are you a GHOST >Eh Whatever.
Samuel Barnes
He's literally a soul brought back from the afterlife into his own body which is in a younger state than it was when he died. That fact, plus all the nonsense of the modern world confusing the fuck out of him and random people not leaving him alone, has presumably made him stop caring about stuff in general.
Think about it: pretty much every fight he's gotten into in the present has been involuntary. Doppo, Baki, and Yuujiro just kinda showed up while he was chilling at Tokugawa's and demanded fights. (Yuujiro gets a pass though, since Musashi wanted it just as much.) Cop Whose Name I Forgot randomly asked him to come along with him, to which Musashi basically just said "aight"; leading him into fights against Kendo Fag and Shibukawa which he didn't really sign-on for. Gaia came up and bugged him with his knife-gun and whatever else while he was trying to figure out what the fuck a skyscraper was. Musashi's just fresh out of hecks at this point. I think Pickle is actually the only person here that he's fought entirely of his own volition.
Brandon Myers
I haven't been following Champion at all, but if previous share raws were from the physical releases, do you really think they'd pay money to get the digital one? Maybe if they start begging for even more donations.
