Air Gear 2

[Alberio]

This is a continuation from the Air Gear thread

We were talking about Kazu with the flame road, and Ringo and Ikki together, with other things as well I think...Air Gear

[asanta]

btw air gear 175's out, except not on one manga yet


and also i think its awesome that kazu inherited the flame road :D

[par167]

Kazu better get better before he puts the flame Regalia wheels on or he is gonna get hurt.Ikki and crew are fightin for their lives in 175 and looks like they are loseing .Ringo is the key to everything in the tower and how the story will progress going into the tower.I had a question for everyone ,did you notice they colored the first page?I thought it was great .Guess they have a new trademark.

[Raziel2389]

i want to see how these later chapters are gonig to turn out, it is really getting me into the story now that the real parts wars are starting, Ikki i am looking at beacuse of his new path and also Kazu, right now I am thinking that when the final fight comes Kazu and ikki will bring the heat on the Takuchi brothers.

[death incarnate]

ikki, kazu and agito/akito have all been given the spotlight buccha really hasn't really gotten any lately nor has onigiri (which i can understand why) i wish they would develop other characters too. like what the hell has ringo been up to she basically got cut out of the manga.

[par167]

Chapter 177 is heating up. I wondered about Ringo not being around but Ikki needs to do it himself and when that happens think she will back.Kilik must be interested in Ikki after all ,as he showed up to watch the match.Kinda surprised at the lack of kazu and bucha time they are both strong team members and you would think that Kazu has been practiceing secretly with the flame regalia and might have to break it out to help them win against these guys .The 178 raw is out and full of action if you want to look it over here is a link http://sai.voiea.net/AGr/

[Alberio]

I'm reading the newest chapter right now...A bit boring yet very cool in the meantime while Kururu makes her appearance.

Discussion time!:D I hope at least...

[wildstriker]

I have just read from the first chapter to the 170+ in this past 3 days (not read it online from here of course, I can go crazy to wait page to page load for 170+ chapters >_>).

So far, I like Akira and his Bloody Regalia while it lasted, and Kilik on recent chapters developement.

[err]

kururu's regalia looks nice. xD
reminds me of that priest guy from trigun, forgot his name. D:

[jotony]

dude? what date does air gear come out? u know every friday naruto comes out... what about air gear

[gr1mmy]

Whenever the scanlators feel like it. I'd say...

[Alberio]

Most of the time it updates on Fridays-Mondays(Monday a lot recently) but the releases vary a lot.

[SKATEateer]

yeah


i want an update from sekerei!!! haha
hi alberio

[b3nji306]

anyone who knows what's buccha's road?
kogarasumaru already have three kings, ikki,agito and kazu, what about buccha, dont you think he would also become a king in the future chapters of airgear?

[par167]

dude? what date does air gear come out? u know every friday naruto comes out... what about air gear

The raw hits on weds night or thursday Sora usally has it done by sunday.OG took a week off last week so no new chapter last week.
The good thing is that Sora is caught up with the raws and are quick on their releases.

[irdevilish]

:thumbup: i totally love airgear mens -.- onemanga stop airgear chapter at 179 -.- i wanna read more... its getting more interesting..

[tsunade666]

well to bad the scanlator of sora quit so its still a raw 180 raw I wish someone translate it already I just downlaod it and can't understand a thing if its japanese

[uranium]

Where the hell are the AG fans in this site?

Sora are speed subbing it -_-

Stick with scum T_T (we're going way too slow though... Quality over Speed my leader always says.)

[Alberio]

Hello. I kinda fell back on the chapters on AG, I plan on reading them pretty soon.

I agree with your leader, I like HQ since its easier on the eyes and normally tiny font on the page is hard to read in LQ...T_T*has a lot of experience with that like with Negima*

Hey SKATE, I hope we'll be on at the same time so we can talk again sometime, sorry for not noticing your post, which I seem to do a lot now.
-_-:

[tsunade666]

speed subbing but before the 180 shows up .It is in news in sora that their raw scanner quit but it looks like they fine a new guy to scan here is the post and date Posted by Aeonsky on 12 Oct 2007 look in it you can say I'm not lying but they still scan it and translate it and show in in 16 Oct 2007 that 180 is out its a good news
okay?
and high quality is much better than low quality scan its obvious right? high and low?

[tsunade666]

181 raw is up we can expect a translation by nightfall or maybe tomorrow

[tsunade666]

the new translated c181 is uploaded in the site

[the one rabi]

chap 181 was so lame, i think all they wanted was to make people get all "hype" so they can find out what happens

[tsunade666]

huh
their is no battle happen in c181 it sucks only it shows how awesome kururu and her regalia I want to see ikki kick their buts goodbye
and I think hako has a fast change of heart so I think she is still evil maybe

[wildstriker]

The opponent isn't even interesting by slight bits...., bunches of old man..., well, at least Kururu got some spolight.

[tsunade666]

huh
those old mans part kicks *** after kururu fix it and enhance it

[wildstriker]

Sadly, nobody have hots for old guys...., no matter how good the tricks they pull.

[Tomm-E]

Does anybody know if Air Gear and Tenjou Tenge have a connection? The drawings and the way the story is written is very similar.

[tsunade666]

I don't know I haven't read about tenjou tenge yet
I just watch the anime not read the manga
look into the author or artist maybe they are the
same but I think they are different in story

[Tomm-E]

Really? The reason i saw a similarity was because everything starts off simple...but then everything is actually really complicated and it involves the past generation.

[tsunade666]

that is normal for any manga if yor reads a lot you will see some similarities in that and also even in anime many starts slow and then become complicated
basically its its start to be good in my opinion

[wildstriker]

Yes, Tenjou Tenge and Air Gear is drawn and created by same artist, Oh! Great.

[Tomm-E]

HA i thought so. My intuition and sense in manga/anime is flawless =P

I was wondering why it was getttin more boring and farfetch'd.

[wildstriker]

Really?, I though it was getting more interesting since they have a new purpose and main villain to take down in recent arc.

Farfetch'd?, well, the Air Gear system has been farfetch'd in the first place I'd say, but yes, those "Regalia" and "Gravity Children" add more ridiculous element to the storyline (not that it matters anyway, it's shounen manga type after all).

[Tomm-E]

Well initially it was just a street sport and you had a path take the street or go pro...which is sick turf wars and so on...then all of a sudden all this extra supernatural **** goes on...and killings and controlling and the army and soon world conflict...its like..the story started with one extraordinary thing which was fine then now its everything is out of it.

Wouldn't you be happy with a more down to earth type sporting manga...highschool kids getting involved in murder when they just wanted to blade...WTF?!?

The artist/writer for this story is very good interms of first impressions but they just take it too far in the end.

[wildstriker]

Actually, what the artist good at is the fanservice. :D

Well, I think it's never intended to be a down to earth story at all actually, as soon as Akito/Agito introduced, I already have a gut this will turn into a bloody one..., and the Gravity Children/Regalia things just spice up the condition.
But well..., every shounen must have a plot twist or two...

[Tomm-E]

I really wanted a down to earth sports manga/anime.
I thought this was good at the start then it kicked into all this twisted plots i don't like story lines like that it needs to be consistant. Like Hajime no Ippo and i would have said Prince of Tennis but now its getting a little silli aswell. I like Cross Over from the little that has come out.
Street blading is good...but street blading becoming World War is a little crazy.

[wildstriker]

Well...., read Slam Dunk yet?, that might down to earth as far as the series goes.

Yes, as far as PoT goes, the tennis techniques getting more ridiculous since National Tournament arc, but it'll end soon, so just follow it a little bit more. :D

[Tomm-E]

Yeah i've gone trhough slam dunks its good but...sakuragi never really improves LOL.

You have story lines where they improve too quickly but in this case its boring he never improves at all but thats the anime i'm not sure about the manga, did that go far?

[wildstriker]

Yeah, the manga have an extra National Tournament arc as well, featuring 2 matches that was not in the anime (Toyotama and Sonnoh).

[Tomm-E]

So it isn't very exhilarating is it. He never looks 'cool' at all.

[wildstriker]

Well, he does provide some real help in the last match, just read the manga from volume 21 again (vs. Ryonan) If you've only watched the anime version.

[tsunade666]

IF YOU WANT REAL SPORT MANGA READ MAJOr
if you want baseball and its extreme down to earth no exaggerating stunts
and really its going off topic
back to topic air gear
what would you think of hako does she turn good all of a sudden or its just a story twist by the artist ?

[Tomm-E]

She is a slut...who cares =P lol

[tsunade666]

WTH

she really looks like one a slut but its bad saying those words in public we can get banned here watch the wordings
and she said that she looks a sudden change of heart but I doubt it and the old man's is starting to get hot the ,the battle is starting to get exciting the last few manga just bores me it better do some really good stuns or the repair and upgrade would be useless and it looks like ikky is determined to win even the odds are against them

[Tomm-E]

Hrm i apologise for my wording. I don't think she will change she has that evil look no matter what she says or how much she cries.
Psstt where can i read Major...i can't PM you.

[wildstriker]

Well, her jealousy towards Kururu is kinda not-likeable at least (changing the Regalia core and trying to disarm Kururu to the match), and the change of heart, well..., even though it's for real, it doesn't change the To Toul To (or whatever their group name is) rule; to support whichever team they're assigned to and stay neutral.

[tsunade666]

about the the manga major try manga volume and manga updates
its really a good one if you like baseball

well if hako suddenly really change in heart then their will be no tuner for the takeuchi brothers and thats a big help because if they battle them and they are out of tune it will be advantageous and if its really true then its another addition to their nakama
and right now the geezer are winning ikky got to do something or they will lose big time he even plan using the money for bbq

[Tomm-E]

Are you kidding?!? Their the Takeuchi Brothers...They'll just kidnap her or even better kururu, I mean they've obviously murdered i don't thinking kidnapping is going to be something they'd be scared to do. Even if Hako has changed heart...she is still a weakling that has no pride.

[tsunade666]

yap
they kill and most appropriate is they massacre
but I think kururu will just die than help them unlike hako
which is in deeply inlove with ikky and then got betrayed
hearts problems and broken hearted can be easily
manipulated. I think..or make it more
vulnerable to those 2 monster

[itachiiab]

hello, i came to post for air gear 182 in raw

http://rs115.rapidshare.com/files/65655537/Air_Gear_182.zip

[darkninja27]

Haku is a whore and just cuz she got rejected she went to the Takeuchi brothers....thats really gay.

[nope]

yea, she is a psycho. Of course she'll either die or end up betraying her friends again.

[tsunade666]

I think you all guys hate hako :D :D :D
well I'm not :D :D :D
I think she is just fine but kururu is way better than her
and thanks for the raw

[Kaiha]

Too be honest, I think Haku is still with the Takeuchi brothers.....

[tsunade666]

why do you think like that?
well me also thinks she is still a bad girl
but still she looks like she realized that she did was wrong

[Kaiha]

I don't know just a gut feeling I guess...

[tsunade666]

hmm
me either she is not the type that will be goody good too

[wildstriker]

The tuner team is on neither side (neutral) after all, they support whichever team they're assigned to, so it's natural for Hako to keep supporting the Takeuchi brothers, while supporting them is bad for mostly other teams, it'll more humiliating to abondoning them outstraight since it defies the group ideal for neutrality.

[tsunade666]

well thats the reason the last pledge queen quit and give the title to kururu
she is not helping ikky to have time

[Riffz]

I have some questions--

1. What do you think will happen next??
2.Whom will Ikki choose in the end?? Kururu or Ringo??
3.Do you think Ikki understand kururu?? or he thinks that she is a traitor as she is helping white wolve??
4.All kings have their own road and own regalia, As storm king when will Ikki will get his??

[Shino176]

I hope Ikki chooses Kururu. Ringo claims she likes him, but was willing to attack him over a pair of powered up rollerblades.

[Riffz]

I am not sure whom ishould support. Coz I think Ringo and kururu both likes him. But I suppose Ikki likes kururu coz in chapter 143 he saw kururu when he closed his eyes.

I am eagerly waiting to see Ikki's regalia. I wonder when he will get his regalia?? Coz without regalia a king cant show his true power, right?

[tsunade666]

its kururu just wait a couple of minutes I will hunt down the manga
and chapter where onigiri ask ikki to think of who she really like
and then POOF
kururu in his mind
just wait a minute :D :D

[tsunade666]

http://www.onemanga.com/Air_Gear/143/14-15/
http://www.onemanga.com/Air_Gear/143/16/
I like the reaction of ikki
plus ikki's cellphone is special the only number store to it
is kururu's number
plus in the past couple of chapter when they think
kururu is been kidnaped ikki gone out wild
and yelling jumping in front of the car and when
kururu said its her dad ikki said
DAD( or is it father )

[kururu]

tsunade666 your my new bestfriend

[ShootingStar~]

I think, they'll go for the grand scale tournament, drama, drama, drama, then Ikki wins?!

I'd prefer it if Ikki chose Kururu instead of Ringo : P. And I don't think Ikki thinks Kururu is a 'traitor' he was still smiling and battling after he saw Kururu.

Maybe Kururu will make Ikki's regalia... Who knows~ But I bet the regalia WILL be made <3 Can't wait to see it~

[tsunade666]

kururu is the only one that can make another regalia for ikki. kururu is his tuner.
and also I prefer kururu than ringo.usually the kings choose their tuner as their
lifetime partner.well they have very intimate relationship to begin with :D :D

[ShootingStar~]

But umm... When was there a King that chose his regalia as his partner? =/ I don't think Spitfire's time counted... They weren't love partners?

[kururu]

I think Kururu will make the regalia after this battle coz she will know Ikki`s weak and strong points enabling her to make the perfect regalia for him,

BTW Kururu is the first girl Ikki has ever been embarassed to talk to,, remember chapter 144, the one where they met the members of TOUL TOOL TOO, it was the first time Ikki is shown shy to a girl,

and of the reaction of AKITO,

AGITO qoute [How scary do you think a seriously angry AKITO would be]

[tsunade666]

the 184 raw is out
http://rapidshare.com/files/68370302/Air_Gear_184.zip.html

[tsunade666]

hate to be a spoiler but they freakingly lose with a 310 vs 90
kogarasumaru 90 white wolves 310

[Tomm-E]

...Well guess there isn't any point in reading the next one...=P its boring now.

[tsunade666]

its just boring also reading it.
no more battle scenes.
only fun parts especially the last page :D :D :D
it still worth it reading but the game sucks MAX!
kururu rocks and beat the hell out on ikki's team

[kururu]

oww

[Hynavian]

Gezz....what a lost and with such a huge difference too.

PS: Spoiler tags are around ya >.<

[happyfolk]

when is 183 going to come out, im anxious to see what happens now, and see more about aeon clock helping the sora brothers. and kilik going against them to.

[tsunade666]

the 183 is out already the translation and about the 184 raw is out and also
my bad the info about score is wrong
its 9 vs 310
but their is reason to it I can't read japs so I can't tell whats happening but
it looks like ako is about to leave again and she is the one that move
the score board and it looks like a one sided game.and also the contract is
been disregard and the father of kururu gives his blessing to ikki :D :D :D
its really a disappointing point range but the ending is funny.

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

[QUOTE=tsunade666;145808]the 183 is out already the translation QUOTE]

where can i find it

[tsunade666]

My bad again the score is 9 - 10 the reason its 310 is because of this
hahah on another note, i finally got my net services running so i'll be around more often... anyway lets get started on this week's chapter shall we? http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc161/penguinism/happysmiley2.gif

this chapter begins again with a comparison of each kogarasumaru by kururu... she compared the role of each individuals by saying how a team is similar to an AT... how buccha is similar to a damper and agito the wheels, kazu playing the role of lubricant, onigiri the speed-alternaring mechanism (omg!!! onigiri has a damn role..lol http://www.sorascans.com/forums/extrae/happy.gif), and emily is like a situation-dependant optional part... and obviously, ikki being who he is, is comapred to the engine of the AT who drives everything/one forward and he is gradually determining the "performace" of the team... however, kururu adds that the power-lacking AT (that kogarasumaru is being compared to) is not mainly because of ikki only but the burden is also shared between the other parts...

hako and kiriku then talks on ikki's and sora's abilities, with the later placing that the current ikki has about a battle level of about 78 and hako saying sora is about a battle level of over 300 (o_O).. with that hako reveals the outcome of the match - 9:10!! sadly, kogarasumaru who was seen to be in the lead earlier did indeed lose the match after all...with kogarasumaru in somewhat of a minor shock, as the principal-old-man pointed out, it may not be a bad thing... black flame then comments on the connection between ikki and kururu, with them being a storm "jack" and a rin (pledge queen's road.. not really sure what it translate to) "queen"...

hako begins to leave the scene, saying how crappy the "boat" that kururu rides on is and that she is terrified to be on herself(no, she did not turn evil again, its probably just a normal honest comment) but kururu counter-argues that, because its terrifying, it would make it fun... narration on the next page then talks about how its like the first time a user wears an AT, where one takes his first step into the sky amidst his own fears; that courage will become a beam of light in the darkness...

with that said, our heroes turns to leave the stadium and the commentators bids farewell to the audiance, only to be called back by the white wolves who reminds them of the contract... it seems kogarasumaru has not fogotten about it at all and was attempting to run-away-while-trying-to-look-cool http://www.sorascans.com/forums/extrae/happy.gif agito, being who he is and declines to get his "hounour" stained, bids farewell to them team and tells them that its been fun during the short time they are together but was pinned down by the rest of the team http://www.sorascans.com/forums/extrae/tongue.gif kururu then tries to plead with her father to let them off this time but was told by her father that there will be no one who will follow a leader with no credibility and tells kururu that she probably does not like someone like that too... however, upon saying that, he says that its a different matter if no such promises is made and got the contract torn up and declares that "Sirius" is leaving the world of AT since it is a world for birds and not their home... (aaawwww, i wanted to see kogarasumary wearing those stupid mask-rider costumes too!! >_<)

as it comes to the white-wolves making their grand-exit, they were cheered by audiances, some of whom wanted to have their powerd-suits (who doesnt? http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc161/penguinism/happysmiley2.gif) before leaving, however, kururu's father gave ikki a farewell-advice saying how the path that he will take will be a rough one and asks him once again if ikki will proceed on that path... a firm confirmation from ikki made kururu's dad telling him "if (u) want to conquer the wilderness, (u) will need a horse... will you be kind to the horse?" as ikki is confused by wtf kururu's dad is talking about, apparently, he's actually asking ikki to take care of kururu!! (much to kururu's embarassment >.>) with tears in his eyes, kururu's dad begs for ikki to bring happiness to his only daughter and it was all ikki and kururu to do to try and deny it while the rest of kogarasumaru could only silently thinks to themselves what an overly-truthful dad he is...
PS... I just copy paste this somewhere...
and also my bad the 183 translation isn't out yet I just read the summaries part or the words thats been translated but the raw it self isn't been edited yet...

[Hisoka]

u better be carefull on telling the spoiler next time k~
herm 9-10.... n kogarasumaru dont have any tuner.. they still rox eventhough they lose.
KURURU regalia is superbly awesome~

[Hopeless]

wonder what'll happen next... no clues to what will happen after... except for ikki asking kururu to make him the storm regalia there's no hint on other events...

[ShootingStar~]

Aren't they training for the grand scale tournament? o__0

[kururu]

That was the training,, BTW, any idea on who the other two unknown members of sleeping forest??

When Kilik and Sora first fought, Kilik was shown with $ other people, two of them were Om and Gabishi, the other one was probably the person Kilik was talking to during the match but who was the other one,,

Besides I think they`ve decided that Kururu will be the love interest for Ikki, not Simca, not Ringo

YAY for KURURU

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

by the way do you think the storm regalia will be the complete version of the wind regalia wind some new feature

[Hopeless]

Besides I think they`ve decided that Kururu will be the love interest for Ikki, not Simca, not Ringo

YAY for KURURU

It's not really decided yet... but for me I'll go for Kururu hahah... simplicity at it's best... ringgo's too violent lol and simca's too flirty... kururu's more the angel for me lolz... don't hate me ringgo and simca fans *LMAO*

[Hopeless]

by the way do you think the storm regalia will be the complete version of the wind regalia wind some new feature

It'll probably have be a new one... it would be so lame as to duplicate the wind regalia now... best action would be new design and feature and especially new trick - one that Ikki would be making up rather than use Sora's technique...beating a technique with the same one would be totally lame...

[j0wjow]

i cant wait for kururu to tune the storm regalia and ikki.
of course in a non-perverted way.
it would be rather funny and sweet,
given that akito doesn't mess things up.
:D

btw, i always pictured kururu to be blonde..
to bad she has pink hair too..

[Hopeless]

i bet it wouldn't turn out be in a non-perverted way haha considering Ikki...well given that he's already matured and focused on the tournament it might turn out ok...=P

yah... me too i was kinda thinking of her having blonde hair... maybe the artist likes pink... anyway she's still cute for me <3

[j0wjow]

yes she is:thumbup:
pink hair and all..
but i like simca better..
people think she's a little too flirty
but honestly,
ive only seen her flirt with ikki..
plus that scene in the hospital room
proves she definitely likes him..
that lucky bastard.. 3 beautiful girls.. >.<

[Hopeless]

lucky bastard indeed...hahah

well judging from the circumstances regarding the AT team (the bulldog ones...i forgot their name lol)

seems simca flirts with different riders before she met with ikki you know...
but you're kinda right... though it's after meeting ikki, her flirting became limited to ikki then...

[tsunade666]

if you can consider that flirting yes maybe...
but I put my bet on kururu I think I post my reason already on it and with some proof
that the manga is voting for kururu.. well for current part....
the wind regalia is pure wind ,death reaper, blade power and maybe laser if you consider it or something similar to it when sora use it with his twin making a barrier.
it pierce right through spitfire and aeon clock.
maybe the storm regalia will have combination of wind and thunder like a real storm..
but if the wind and storm regalia will be that strong how strong can the sky regalia be?

[j0wjow]

i wonder..
taking into account ikki's personality..
would he actually use it if he manages to get it?
i kinda remember him saying
that he doesn't want/need a regalia..
so if he doesn't want to use that sky regalia
im rooting for sora to get it "first"
so i can see it in action..

[j0wjow]

@ tsunade
i have read your reasons for rooting for kururu.
as well as the facts pointed out by the other forumers.
point taken!
the manga's flow really is in favor of kururu and ikki
but im a stubborn man
and will still put my hopes on simca!
=)

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

according to logic, the sky regalia may be weaker. reason the technology is worst. and the sky regalia does not mean it is the strongest regalia it just a symbol that the holder is the sky king

[Hopeless]

i wonder..
taking into account ikki's personality..
would he actually use it if he manages to get it?
i kinda remember him saying
that he doesn't want/need a regalia..
so if he doesn't want to use that sky regalia
im rooting for sora to get it "first"
so i can see it in action..

he'll probably use it now... since the fight between the wolves and kogarusumaru he probably has changed... i mean he practically asked kururu to make him the regalia then... why ask if he's not going to use it?...

and yes the sky regalia's probably weaker and so just a symbol of being sky king... but my guess is ikki's gonna ignore the sky regalia at the end of the tournament saying that the sky is free for all now or something like that...

[j0wjow]

he'd probably say something like that..
and your right, he did change didn't he?:D
but somehow, im still not convinced that the
sky regalia will turn out to be weak..
things aren't exactly logical in air gear
:thumbup:

[Hopeless]

maybe...

true things really aren't logical in air gear but then again most of manga's really don't follow logic... it's mostly fantasy worlds anyway...

what if the regalia isn't actually a regalia lol... i don't think kilik and the others actually went to see what it was anyway...

[j0wjow]

ahaha.. who knows..
it was never really shown if they took a peek..
its still probably inside the attache case..
in the arms of that dead dude hanging on the wires..

[lmaololjkbffomg...etc.]

I heard that the 185 scan will be released soon...

[josef200]

Hey every one!I just want to ask a favor from the administrators....Because some of the pages of the airgear series is somewhat blurry...Most especially those pages with small images...I hope you could zoom on the image so that it may look clear...Maraming salamat po!

[Hopeless]

You should have put this in the suggestions forum part... but the pages are already zoomed in when you're viewing them in the onemanga reader... the pages with small images are probably the ones where there are double paged ones...

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

the SR may be like a hyper flying ability to reach the sky closer then anyone esle. lkki then use it in the end and something like the anime ending is show

[Hopeless]

aww man... stupid training chapter... useless waste of pagessssssssssssssssss!!!! and their training without ATs!!... only thing new is the introduction of a new Air Trecker... possibly an uprising King? could be competition for Om the Water king/queen??...

[Krimzhun]

I actually like training chapters. It gives the reader a break from the action and shows what the new techniques are in the making.
Bucca is going through mental preparation.
Kazu and Agito are probably working on their endurance. But I'm not sure.
Ikki is training his offense.
And Onigiri...

The new guy was probably introduced as a rival for Agito. Seeing how shark(Agito) and dolphin/killer whale(new guy) are natural enemies.

PS: I think the Hanged Man is king. He probably has a magnetism regalia to allow him to hang upside down. But if we were going by real life physics (which apparently doesn't exist in AG:D) that ability should be someting Nue could do.

[tsunade666]

onigiri is training if you it that way.
his nirvana or something ero road...
a terrible road to take..
and about the hanged man he is definitely a king and a comrade of kilik of the sleeping forest. and about the electromagnetic force that can be produce by electricity well its possibel for nue but how can you relate the magnet to a.t....
airgear is a mix up fictional physics

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

the kid is a king from birth did anyone know why

[Hopeless]

he's not really a king from birth... Aeon just mentions it because of his name... suffix has greek(?) *forgot what language he said it was* translation into king...

wonder who's stupid enough to fall into the hands of onigiri's ero road lolz...

[SKATEateer]

wow
im sorta confused at whats going on recently in the manga

team kogerasuma lost to that other team which toul to helped out right? and then like they just left.. i dont get what was going on

[Hopeless]

well toul tool to (?spell check) was helping out the white wolves because Kururu was trying to make Ikki see how having a special customized AT and a tuner is important if he wanted to go to the Grand Scale Tropheaum (did i spell it right?)... and eventually ended up with Ikki asking Kururu to make him the Storm Regalia... thus fulfilling what Kururu wanted... and now they're just training for the upcoming GST...

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

Is the faster you go the greater friction. I have not learn it in science lesson so i want to know

[Hopeless]

hmm... i think so... i dunno i kinda forgot what they taught me in physics already lol...

i think it was kinda like this: greater force exerted to move forward = greater friction...

[tsunade666]

I think thats the greater the mass of the object being push or pulled and a rougher surface will increase the friction.

[recXion]

hmm...don't forget the air resistance too :P but yeah, the mangaka's got an interesting take on physics lol. can't wait for kururu to create the storm regalia, i guess ikki's probably gonna be qt untouchable with it, given the fact that sora already felt threatened by his ability (him wondering "what if ikki's gotten hold of the actual air regalia" and all) ^^ love the mangaka's creativity, esp abt the role of the toul tool to (as tuners) in the story, as well as the ability of the regalia, "axis" - think it's really cool. i think kururu's real cute too, by the way ^^

[Blaze]

Noob question: What chapter did the anime left off after episode 26? The part where Ikki attempt that long jump thing. 30 M was it?

[Shaun]

Noob question: What chapter did the anime left off after episode 26? The part where Ikki attempt that long jump thing. 30 M was it?

It was pretty much dead on 100 I think.

However there's a lot of things that happen differently in the manga compared to the anime, so it's worth reading through the entire series.

[Blaze]

>.> I despises reading a manga again when you already watched the anime.

[Hopeless]

i too suggest you read the manga from the start... the Air Gear anime takes on a different story flow than that of the manga... so it might leave you confused in some parts...

sorascans sure take their time in releasing their scanlations... although i appreciate their effort in making us Japanese-illiterate otakus able to read the manga... i just wish sometimes they could hurry a bit ^_^... very tiring to wait lol...

[Blaze]

Is it a big change,because I don't want to start over if it's only a small change in the plot. >.<

[Krimzhun]

At least read the first couple of chapters again. I noticed that the anime and the manga are totally different in the beginning.

[methaniel]

I really like the way he did the jump in the ned of the anime with all his freind (in the manga he's quite alone...)

[Hopeless]

still waiting for scanlation to be released T_T...

i don't think he's alone at all... his friends are there to back him up whenever he needs it... though most of the time he handles it by himself...

[methaniel]

tha's not what I mean (I wrote not like I want), it's just during the time he have to do the 30 meter jump, the part against Yo****sune, in the anime all his friend came and lay down on the ground, but in the manga, only Ringo is here (but that's a way for finishing the anime)

[Hopeless]

ah... sorry didn't finish the anime... well animes tend to add things which the editors/producers think would bring out a better feeling/emotion...

[The Hidden Smog Villager]

The anime really annoyed me the way it finished. i wanted to see ikki take on sleeping forest. heres to hoping for a second series

[Hopeless]

Scans are up... good, 2 chapters were released...

1st chapter... still training... wow love story in the making haha...

2nd chapter... Agito Vs Orca! lol somehow i think Agito's gonna be ripped to shreds here...

[Krimzhun]

This is awesome. The Shark vs. The Orca, two natural enemies duking it out. Even though it is kind of obvious that Agito will lose, but I'm still rooting for him.
Shamu is nothing compared to Jaws. The next couple of chapters better not be dissapointing.

[Tomm-E]

I can't help but the further this manga goes the more I dislike it, but i still want to see Kururu hook up with Ikki LOL. Couldn't care less about Shark V.s. Orca it feels like Ikki's group never win anything these days. Such a drainer!

[methaniel]

Will the shark become the dragon? I hope so (it's good, with this manga I learn what mean Vercingetorix. I didn't know before I read it even if I studied the life of Vercingetorix a lot of time in school)

[j0wjow]

cant focus on the agito vs orca match
mind is still stuck on ton-chan
:lol:

[Hopeless]

lol dirty mind hahah...

damn... i feel that the manga is losing its exciting feel... maybe because the recent chapters haven't had any strong opponents against them and they're mostly training... so now i'm hoping this would be the start of it getting good again... Agito vs Orca... though i know that Agito's gonna be no match for Orca now... i'm hoping the fight doesn't disappoint me with it ending at once(one hit finish lol)... probably ikki and the others will arrive before he gets finished? or it might be here where he suddenly masters the killer fang that he wants... ONE SHOT KILL!...

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

most likely, Agito master his one hit killer fang and the battle end with a draw

[tsunade666]

The story is going slow I think it will get better when the tournament starts. I wish kururu will start making the hurricane regalia.

[Hopeless]

they're probably gonna delay showing off the hurricane regalia to us until a battle in the GST...

[Noelle]

I think so too, Hopeless.

Still, it wouldn't hurt for us to be told that Kururu is working on the Hurricane Regalia, and not slacking while they're training. Since Ikki and gang are training, I thought Kururu would at least start work on the Hurricane Regalia. Or is she going to leave everything to the last minute? =/

[tsunade666]

isn't it needed for kururu and ikki to be together while creating it like when tunning.
I mean its creating a new one unlike the wind regalia which their is a core.
A core that will be used as a based so kururu will only make something from it but
hurricane regalia doesn't have a core yet. Its not even planned yet..what will it look like? the attributes? and all....

[kururu]

so wat do you guys think the power of the 2 unknown members of sleeping forest, the guys with the masks on aside from gabishi,

I wonder why they introduced Orca all of the sudden, don`t they have enough villains already

and besides when did Agito and Yayoi came from.
I know she can tell exact time like kururu and the others TTT members does, does it mean she`s a potential tuner, so where dies that live Akito,

Too many questions so little hints

[wildstriker]

To add the flame, how the heck Aeon Clock actually still alive?, guess he's just pretended on Spit Fire side after all....

[Hopeless]

Too many questions so little hints
probably the reason for more villains is to add to the excitement of the GST... it being the greatest AT battleground and they've mentioned that all the greatest ATers flock there, so there has to be other ATers aside from those in Japan who want to participate...

Yayoi probably has potential to be a tuner... might as well be Akito's tuner too... that's good for them both ^^

To add the flame, how the heck Aeon Clock actually still alive?, guess he's just pretended on Spit Fire side after all....
i think Aeon Clock is just following Simca's orders since he's still part of Genesis... it's probably like Simca and the other Genesis member's case... even if they want to support Ikki's team they're on the other side of the battleground so they're still like enemies...

And now for the newest chapter...

LOL Agito almost pissed his pants here...for a while i thought he was going to be a goner... hahah man those two new arrivals look strong... wonder how the flame magician guy(forgot his name sorry ~_~") guy will protect ikki and the others without their ATs around... there's orca and the other guy to deal with...i'm thinking maybe Kururu will suddenly arrive a while later with the storm regalia then Ikki will beat the crap outta them after??

[tsunade666]

the storm regalia wouldn't be finished thats all I know for now.
If the regalia is already finished and shows up early in the story it will not add some spice in the seasoning. It will be introduce later in the story.Maybe an AT would do for them.
And about the guy that almost make akito wet his pants his moves remind me of sora.

and as for yayoi and akito I think it will be good if they match up.

now I'm a little bit confused who is the girl side of akito again isn't it akito the girl and agito the boy?

[Krimzhun]

Just finished 188 and I have to say: I actually know what they are saying and whats going on. No more ambigious dialouge.:thumbup:

For once in many weeks I am really impressed by this chapter. The story is slowly but steadly moving along. New villian is introduced. The art seemed more detailed than the last couple of chapters. As long as AG continues with this type of quality, it will be one of my favorites again.

[tsunade666]

AG?
well I'm still bored of whats happening.
I want more fighting or more character development.

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

is the orca one of the genesis?

[tsunade666]

maybe because of the pyon pyon girl but I always thought when reading the raw his from sleeping forest but their is the pyon pyon girl of Takeuchi brothers.

[Noelle]

Ahaha. I agree with you. :thumbup:

After such a long lull in the story, it's finally picking up its initial momentum again. The next few chapters certainly won't be a letdown if this continues. ;)

[bloodred]

is agito gay?

[j0wjow]

i really hoped that agito would make a grin after that attack
and say something like:
"at last, a formidable opponent.."
like negi did..
oh well..
maybe we'll get to see akito fight..

[ShootingStar~]

It was so cool when he said "Do you want this rain to turn into your own f*cking blood?" ...But more pages came, and he seemed... So out of it. Much more weak D:

Soooo~ Does anyone know whether Orca, I think it was? ;; is a girl or a guy..? lmao, I still didn't get that ):

[wildstriker]

Looks like a girl from my insight..., there's a good chance for trap as well though. :D

[kururu]

Well to add to my rant is why are they introducing more powerful characters this late in the game,

They already hinted us during the WWC fight that Sora is still much much stronger than IKKI 78<300 after all

and ofcourse Sleeping Forest haven`t shown us all of their aces yet, I still believe that they`re quality is better than Genesis` quantity especially in the high atmosphere arena that Ringo is not affected

And here we have Kogarasumaru, Akito who I believed was the second strongest member of the team almost wet his pants after Caesar shows off, and I think Orca is stronger than he is, unless Kazu can somehow super saiyan his way into using the flame regalia I think Kogarasumaru can only win by manga-plot

Btw I`m not sure what`s the use of Onigiri and Buccha anymore, they need to be king level type of skill to hang in the GST

end rant hehehe

[tsunade666]

yap
onigiri is useless unless the enemy is a girl his useless and also even if its a girl he is still useless MAX!
as for bucha he is weak mentally so he needs training but he is strong physically.
as for the strong opponents that is showing up its good that they start showing up because it will be bad if they suddenly show up out of no where when the battle starts.

[kururu]

yup Onigiri = funny

Onigiri in a fight = useless to the max

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

yup Onigiri = funny

Onigiri in a fight = useless to the max

not really. He can confuse the opponent.

[bloodred]

yet again nobody answers my question...

[tsunade666]

agito is not a gay
he has split personality you can tell based on his eye patch
the girl is akito and the boy is agito if I'm not mistaken.

[methaniel]

Agito and Akito are boys I think, and Akito is in love with Ikki

[kururu]

yup both are boys, just split personality

btw Akito is the original fang king so he is supposed to be bad-assed before he gave up AT and gave his abilities to Agito

[tsunade666]

yap but why does he turn into gay or home or lady like or whatever you want to call it.
Its not been explained yet and in some flashback their is akito and agito running and akito is the one thats been dragged by agito. I think its in the part when they are entering the nest of the sleeping forest. agito did said that they enter their back then and akito was trembling because maybe they can't escape anymore.

[kururu]

I think is was explained already about that flashback, it means that the longer Agito stays the more the possibility that he will takeover the body and Akito would disappear I think, that`s the message I see

[darkninja27]

but Akito is Agito's tuner soo how would that work out.
Another thing, Im guessing that the Kings lose their "u know" to their tuners cuz its been implied a lot.
As for Ikki, he better train his *** off so that he can actually stand a chance against Sora.
And then Kazuku is just pimping the Flame Road^^

[tsunade666]

akito can be truly gone for all I care. he is a hindrance to ikki and kururu.
as for agito's tuner yayoi can be the strong candidate.

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

Akito die and Agito complete domain the body? Agito will cry?

[Hopeless]

but Akito is Agito's tuner soo how would that work out.

I don't see how Kings lose their "u know" to their tuners though... the only one where a tuner and a king has had a romantic relationship shown is spitfire and the former pledge queen... they're not actually doing anything...the tuner's just feeling the body of the king with the sensor suit (although it's see through =P)...

akito can be truly gone for all I care. he is a hindrance to ikki and kururu.
as for agito's tuner yayoi can be the strong candidate.

actually i don't see him as a hindrance to ikki and any of his love teams lol... not like ikki's gonna fall in love with him lol...

[ShootingStar~]

I don't see Agito as a hindrance either. I mean, he's the fang king! And the first king in Kogarasumaru.

[tsunade666]

Usually the tuner falls in love with the one he/she is tuning. They have intimate relationship if you ask me. Well maybe at first its normal but as the time flows the feelings change as well.

And about hindrance Agito is not its akito but then again like ikki will fall in love with akito is just that akito is scary when he/she is angry just like what agito said to ikki and kururu when ikki invite kururu to do some shopping or a date if you call it.
Akito just shows up like a serpent and said he will tag along.

As for fang king akito is the original fang king ten after that agito succeed it.

[methaniel]

It's been implied that a lot of tuners have intimte reltions with the rider they are tuning. But Akito (a boy for me) is really in passion for Ikki since he's the one that showed him the sky and bringed him out of the jail made by his brother (when are we going to see him again?), so he's jealous of Kururu I guess, even if he knows he hasn't any chance (by the way, do you think Ikki will fall in love with Ringo or Kururu, I prefer Kururu myself but...)

I like the reaction of ikki
plus ikki's cellphone is special the only number store to it
is kururu's number
plus in the past couple of chapter when they think
kururu is been kidnaped ikki gone out wild
and yelling jumping in front of the car and when
kururu said its her dad ikki said
DAD( or is it father )

I dig this up in the thread.....
heres MY ANSWER AND I'M 100% SURE ITS KURURU
unless something will happen that will change the flow
its kururu
not ringo
not simca
but kururu

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

O.K then. so be it kururuXIkki

[Hopeless]

lol...

actually i was hoping it be me x Kururu <3 but hell i'll have to go with the flow and root for her being with Ikki... that way i'll be able to see her happy :thumbup:

[tsunade666]

LOL... you and kururu then that leave ikki with nothing... I pity him :D :D

[kururu]

I dig this up in the thread.....
heres MY ANSWER AND I'M 100% SURE ITS KURURU
unless something will happen that will change the flow
its kururu
not ringo
not simca
but kururu

I love you

[tsunade666]

Your first to say that within my 16 years of life.
Well I have said that before that its kururu and ikki though hopeless likes kururu for himself :D :D I pity ikki

[methaniel]

I too will prefer Kururu, that's for sure, and since sometimes, things are better between them, but there was a time when Ikki and Ringo were closer (but now, he just forget her)

[Rexick]

It's gonna be Kururu, Ringo is gonna get placed aside. Anyway what you guys said about Buccha and Onigiri is true. They're more or less here now for humor not battle. Emily is almost stronger than them. Unless they can miraculously get to King level then they're just dead weight.

Oh and Orca is a guy. I think he's gonna battle Agito eventually, heh heh can't wait ^_^

[methaniel]

I doubt Emily is on the same level with Buccha and Onigiri, I'm sure these guys are going to reveal that they are better than we tought. Go the piggy brothers!

[Krimzhun]

During the Behemoth battle, Spitfire said good things about Buccha's talent. So, I'm expecting him to be a real contender now. As for Onigiri...um...not much to say but he is still one of my favorite characters.

[kururu]

tsunade666, yeah and remember Ikki was shy around Kururu, I went WTH when did Ikki get shy around people

[tsunade666]

I too will prefer Kururu, that's for sure, and since sometimes, things are better between them, but there was a time when Ikki and Ringo were closer (but now, he just forget her)

Not completely true that he just forget her.
I'm sure if they fight again the lost love will just bloom again and thats the problem for kururu and I think ringo and ikki kiss.
go blush blush red on your FACE>>>>

As for buccha he has talents and raw power but his not mentally prepared just as what spitfire said and thats what lacking him now.

As for onigiri he can go peeping all the time like I care.

As for emily she is not as strong as buccha. She is not fast as
kaku but she has GUTS MAX!
She is the only one that can be classified as normal people in the team but she still fighting..
I give my praise for her.

[kururu]

Well I think Ringo and ikki has a brother and sister thing going fro them, and I believe Ringo thinks of this aswell I think

[tsunade666]

Ikki maybe but not ringo. Its obvious MAX! from ringo is fallen in love with ikki heads to toes.

[kururu]

Well she`s been helping Kururu from the shadows this past few chapters... maybe she finally accepted it

[acent]

Ikki and Kururu, they are a good match. but i kinda hope, Ringo won't just give up yet. another girl fight to get Ikki will make the story more fun.

[tsunade666]

But I think after this training it will be pure battles because of the upcoming tournament.

[kururu]

poor Simca she`s out of the contention

wait a minute, what am I saying hahahahah down with simca

[tsunade666]

AAAaaaaaa! A! A!
I almost forgot about her....
what happen to the bird with broken wings???
still in a wheel chair or in the hospital.?

[kururu]

don`t know and don`t really care

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

AAAaaaaaa! A! A!
I almost forgot about her....
what happen to the bird with broken wings???
still in a wheel chair or in the hospital.?

most likely yes. Ringo did want her to stay away that why she attack her. so after the G?T then she will recover

[tsunade666]

Well ringo is scary.
She did it to simca ... no to be more precise its her minion that did it to simca by her command.
the bubble buble queen that looks like a Chinese with two huge dumplings on her head.
Whats her name again?
As for simca I pity her she can't tune ikki anymore...like she did tune ikki before :D :D
hehehehe
IT WILL BE BAD AND PITIFUL FOR SIMCA BUT YAHOOO! FOR KURURU :D :D

[acent]

Simca deserved it tough. she is working with the sora and his brother, right?

[tsunade666]

nope...
she is plain loyal to ikki shes not like the other genesis member.
Well originally genesis where sora's twin groups so not sure but I'm only
sure of that simca is loyal to ikki.

[Hopeless]

Whats her name again?
As for simca I pity her she can't tune ikki anymore...like she did tune ikki before :D :D
hehehehe
IT WILL BE BAD AND PITIFUL FOR SIMCA BUT YAHOOO! FOR KURURU :D :D

i think it was Om? damn i'm also not sure but it started with an O...

hmm...i'm under the impression that Simca never got to tune ikki... though she said that she wanted to be ikki's tuner... all i remember is that she showed up naked around ikki at his house back then... but no actual tuning happened?...

Simca deserved it tough. she is working with the sora and his brother, right?

i don't think that she's working with sora and nike... but because of the circumstances that Sora and Nike control Genesis now she has to go along with them... but deep inside most of Genesis sides with Ikki especially Simca...

[tsunade666]

Yap she never tune ikki before I'm just using some insulting kind of speech
"like she tune ikki before" with pronounciation the meaning will change.
As for genesis I think simca is the only one loyal to ikki.
nue betray the aoen clock is a betrayer also the 3 bigs shot of the kyoto (if I'm not mistaken) benkei and the other king which will suck the lives out of you. They are all genesis but left ikki alone. I think the only loyal to ikki to begin with is spitfire and simca.

[methaniel]

Isn't the other king of Genesis who was in America Nike?

[tsunade666]

Well nike is the leader and the founder of genesis. The twin of sora.
We are talking about the members and btw nike is the king of jade if I'm not mistaken
jade road.

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

I thought the trident want to have a match with ikki that why they join them. not because of they loyal to genesis

[methaniel]

Yes so the four Genesis King were SpitFire, Nue, the guy from the trident and Nike? But if it's Nike, all the members would have know that Sora has a twin?

[acent]

only few people know about the secret of trophaeum. it makes only few people know that sora has a twin.
