I gotta say White is a really annoying character. Just an antagonist that never goes away and never develops as a character. I hope that now he's gone for good. And now at least Rak and Koon have leveled up to Ranker level so they can at least hope to keep up with Bam. But now we're getting another Yama vs Yasracha fight. This arc is just full of repeats. Can we just fast forward to the part where Yama wins? Then lets fast forward to the part where the Lo Po Bia Family head shows up?
Here's what I predict: the family head shows up, BTFOs a bunch of high rankers, says some generic shonen garbage like "Mwahaha you can't beat me! My power level is 1 billion!" Then Luslec shows up and spars with the FH to keep him busy while everyone runs away. Not sure if Ha Jinsung will survive. He might get killed off to give Bam motivation to declare war on Jahad. But either way, I can already see what's gonna happen with the rest of the story.
You would think that with all the complaining SIU does about how much he's gotta draw that he would be inclined to speed things up. But the way it's going, there will probably be another year of this battle before the arc ends.
I'd actually have way less of a problem if the fights weren't so freaking boring now.
+ Show Spoiler +Like for the last two chapters (reading on webtoons) Baam showed that he's stronger than White. Cool, can White die now please finally die like he was supposed to in Helltrain and the plot progress?
Fights used to be like early Naruto where strategy and surprise really mattered and skills did something. Nowadays it's all colorful explosions and it doesn't matter whom I'm watching. Like White does white slashing explosions, Yasratcha does blue slashing explosions, Yama does red claw-explosions, Evankhell does red orb explosions, Baam does blue and now black orb explosions. Everything within a kilometer explodes. Except the one who gets hit, who magically blocks everything exploding by crossing his arms.
Siu tells me afterwards which explosion won. Cool. Most DBZ fights were more strategic and definitely felt like stuff people did had more impact.
Basically the only exceptions to this are Khun and Karaka, who also have the only remotely interesting fights right now.
