still reading through vol 5 and enjoying my time. But I like how hirtio is this interesting and seemly chill character when we see his flashback but then when we get back to the present his just like " So anyways we need to bring back slavery" like what

finished vol 5

Spoiler

gotta say wasn't expecting the reveal of uhlak being the true hero, it makes since but I honestly kind of though shiki might have offed herself with how the true hero was described sometimes. The final battle of round one was also a surprising, quick and straight to the point. It kind of sucks to see Zogi go, especially with him being a once in a life time type of goblin for his people and even hitrio being impacted by his death. it's cool that he still screwed linaris over even in death. It' defntily interesting to see whats gonna happen next volume with so much happening. Definitely interested to see how alus the cyborg and tora the farmer settle things.

I think the only one who could beat Uhlak is Mestelexil his ability to adapt and form weapons is supernatural but the attacks from them wouldn't be like the micrawave heat blast. Plus he has the distance advantage

His ability to adopt is predicated on him surviving. Uhlak would just shut him down(negate his immortal to) or anything he could throw at him

I think Uhak's ability would work on Mestelexil for sure.

 

[Blackcurrant91]

I believe Hirohito states who would instantly lose to Uhak at some stage. The only people that can really fight him are people like Gobita and possibly someone like Kazuki the Black Tone or maybe Sojirou (although I believe they fought and Uhak was able to nullify his supernatural swordsmanship skill somehow). I honestly don't know if there is many characters that can even pass the condition of the fight starting and his ability activating automatically to even fight him, let alone actually dealing with the fact that hes ridiculously strong and quick.

Even against people his ability doesn't work on like Shiki still lost to him cause of his unique condition meaning her ability didn't affect his soul enough to prevent him from acting. He's kind of just busted, and he sort of reminds me of Iihiko Shishime from Medaka box who just nullifies anything he doesn't find cool and fresh but with way less conditions.

starting vol 6

Spoiler

Already off to a pretty crazy start with tora v alus and tora offing himself to break the cycle and find his own peace was rough. And alus seemly going insane from the mechanical regen item(forgot it's name) and squaring up to aurteia is not something I expected at all.

 

[The_one_you_least_expect]

Also another interesting speed feat

Spoiler

Alus had made the mud adhere to the sword in order to delay the release of its ability by a fraction of a second-quicker than a flash of light.


All of this was premeditated in order to ensure that Toroa grabbed a different sword.


"Wicked Sword-"


As he scorched Alus with the Burning Blade's heat wave, his other arm held Wicked Sword Selfesk.


The maneuver to effectively utilize the wedges was simultaneous assembly. The wedges that had been fired into the stone crag to provide Alus with footing peppered the Star Runner from all directions.


The metallic shards became embedded in Alus's spread wings, and the magnetism dragged him in along with them. This was how Toroa was trying to close the distance.


Toroa couldn't stop his forward momentum. If he stopped his


legs now, they would never move again.


"You're...different. You're not Toroa the Awful."


"No, I'm still Toroa the Awful!"


Alus had deployed the mud blades and Ground Runner's flames.


He lost a finger and an eye as he persisted. With his body wreathed in flames, he pushed forward. His prioritization of autonomous magic items was proof that he didn't have any reprieve to aim his musket.


If Alus was prepared to take any attack thrown at him, Toroa had to be ready for the very same. If he took a moment to defend himself, his legs would stop entirely.

-vol 6 pg 40

Also another interesting speed feat

Spoiler

-vol 6 pg 40

Interesting feat but might be a bit contradictory with other things. Spoiler read after the fight.

Spoiler

Shulk being stated to be a bit faster than lightning.

and the author stating only a few can people could keep up with Shulk like Soujirou would also fall underneath that tier.

Although some characters do have lightspeed things.

I would like to form a speed feat list after all round ones.
