Since the fake tournament set up by the Ura Fuuchouin and the Voodoo Clan is over we can get to know everyone's likes.

I've given the option of voting for 2 options in the above poll, incase anyone is in a dilemma. Please make your likes known in a reply. Smiley


For SPOILER writers:
So what exactly is a Spoiler? In this instance, any information(critical or otherwise) from chapters which has not yet been translated into English and released, is a Spoiler. If you've roughly gone through the RAWS and know how the manga shapes up, then good for you. Just don't give out that information!!

Akabane's "fight" was awesome...liked how they set it up so that the opponent seemed unstoppable and then *next page* gone!  2nd place goes to Ban's fight!

Yup! Hands down! Akabane was down right awesome! His fighting was short, but the pwnge could not be ignore. Of course, Ban was cool...not as cool as Akabane in his fight.

Akabane's was especially great since they had this whole buildup to his opponent being crazy awesome and then it was over in one panel, before anyone even noticed.  Cheesy

Tongue didn't notice I could vote for 2, I'd have voted for Ban's fight as well...thought it was cool that he used magic, I imagined his seiyu chanting the spell as I was reading it Cheesy

Yeah.. but you weren't the only one. Most people didn't notice it. Sad
I was more into Ban suddenly entering the ring and using his evil eye, than his chant. Everyone thought Maria would have died considering she was ready to die, even before they entered the tournament. But Ban did what no one expected.

This, pretty much. I agree on what was written before in this thread; I, too, could literally hear Ban's voice chanting the spell when I read this chapter the first time. Him knowing a few witchlike spells (that are not the Evil Eye and the Asclepius) have always been an intriguing concept for me, so it was like a dream come true to see him release all that magic power in order to actually be kind enough not to completely obliberate that Beltline monster.... while unwillingly remembering some words about "living" that his dad had told him long ago.
Having Ban speaking German is another concept that I rather like. 8F

If we're talking strong emotions from the reader (that's me!), then Ginji's fight was a real bomb that made me explode with feelings. I remember so well how mad I was when reading the chapters in which he fought, how I was jumping up and down in my chair and all but screaming at the computer screen. Something along the lines of "NOOOOOOOO GINJI DON'T TURN INTO A BLOODTHRISTY SOCIOPATH!!!! YOU'RE STRONG ON YOUR OWN, YOU KNOW THAT!!! HONEY!!". And GOD, my GOD, that sadistic cliffhanger we were left with when Ban broke free from jail to save Ginji and there were made orders to shoot him on sight.... FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.

... Am I the only one who liked Juubei's fight? If we exclude the flashbacks that helped fleshing out his character, it was pretty similar to Akabane's fight, wasn't it? Juubei pretty much walked up to that over-sized Ura-Fuchoouin, poked him, and then the fugly bastard went down.

I liked Akabane's fight the most. Even though it wasn't a fight at all Tongue. But pure awesomess.

I also liked Maria's fight because we finally could see some of her abilities. Which were awesome.
