Chapter Five - 'DEATH DEAL'


Sumire's translation for the full goods.

Page 124. Once Midvalley's been shot multiple times, Legato drives over him with the bike just to make sure.


Page 125. Hopperd screams again, and Vash's wing grabs hold of the bike.


Page 126. Hopperd's gun on Wolfwood under Legato's control, Wolfwood's on Legato. And then there's Vash.


Page 127. Vash crawls further out from under the rubble. He's got those blank eyes again, like when July went up....


Page 130. The situation is further shaken up by the arrival of an unfamiliar person with some very familiar attendants.


Page 131. A new Zazie has been created to replace the dead one. Luckily, Wolfwood has another gun for the latest target.


Page 134. Hopperd slowly moves his gun from Wolfwood and turns it on Legato. Wolfwood realises Legato's using everything he's got just to hang onto Vash.


Page 136. So it's Wolfwood with guns on Legato and Zazie, Zazie with guns on Wolfwood and Hopperd, and Hopperd taking aim at Legato. And Vash still holding the bike, frozen by Legato.


Pages 138-9. Meryl comes diving out of the hole in the rubble Vash made, screaming as she fires...


Page 143. ...and 'tis a stand-off no more, bullets everywhere. Hopperd shoots Legato in the face, and Wolfwood gets Zazie in the leg while she hits his shoulder.


Page 144. Legato loses his grip on Vash, who flips the bike. Getting shot in the face doesn't seem so good for the mental concentration.


Page 148. Legato reanimates Midvalley's body because Nightow is twisted and freaky XD


Page 150. Vash forms a really big Angel gun. This makes everyone unhappy.


Page 152. And someone fires a huge nail straight through both the hand of Legato's Bearer and the tip of the Angel gun.


I just love Nightow's freaky, freaky brain :-)

Can't fault the man on being thorough, can we?

Well, a number of Knives' assassins keep fighting long after anyone else would be dying, so it probably pays to be careful! Knives has some pretty weird and awesome medical technology on tap, and that explains Legato too.

Man, I seriously want the manga now.

And so my work is done :-) Didn't you know by now? It's my mission in life to make everyone love the manga!

Yeah, Wolfwood's got the cool assassin thing down pretty well at that stage - guns that fire bullets he can deal with. He suddenly becomes very uncool when Vash fires up the Angel gun, though....

Vash in this one is a little too freaky for my tastes. I like him when he's all feathered up and dangerous, but there's still somebody at home, yanno?

Yeah, I like Vash when he's struggling to control himself

You should see the next set of scans - I is dead from, well, pretty much everything really....

Ah, you can tell the passion's still there when they can still manage to surprise one another XD

You know what I think is the sweetest thing about all this? Wolfwood's looking at a Vash who's morphed into this crazy alien with giant wings about to blow them all away, and he still thinks of him as 'Tongari'. At no point is there a 'WTF is that?'

Given the pages, I'm having to skip just to keep the numbers down, there'll still be a manga-gasm for you :-)

Sometimes Nightow just likes to be gratuitous with the gore, and I don't mind at all XD

Oooh, some great stuff there! gotta admit, though. when I first heard of Ellendra the Chrimson Nail I presumed it meant Finger Nails, you know? I picturede these long, red finger-nails just flying round and impaling people. To see large, metal nails doing that is wierd.
Anyway, good to see Meryl getting in on the action! Go Meryl!

*grin* I wanna know where Elendira keeps all those nails! That briefcase she carries can only be big enough for something like 5 or 6 of them. She must store them in an extra-dimensional pocket or something XD
