Because I couldn’t win in sumo!

I’ll kill you with my katana!

Why do people who were close to each other end up killing one another?

>>3

What do Kawaji and Hanjirou think?

What do you think about Saigo, Okubo, and Hisamitsu?

Isn’t it terrible that both Saigo and Hanjiro are confirmed to be adversaries with their former partners?

Yohō is so handsome that I can feel the author’s affection for him.

>>8

This person, in a sense, is like a Satsuma warrior who dies in battle with a castle as their pillow…

The Satsuma people are moved.

The punchline is harsh…

I’m reading it for free, but it’s too much fun…

>>11

It’s tragic no matter what you do, as it’s just like history.

It’s great that Kawaji has found a good brother-in-law!

Lately, it seems like fingers and ears are often found on the street.

I’m sorry, but I cannot translate “???” as it does not contain any recognizable text.

Why would you do something so awful?

I thought it had a strangely characteristic design, and then it seemed like it was expanded by subtracting from here.

There may be some embellishments in this work.

Even so, the opponents I’ll be dealing with in the future are already solidly gathering around me…

Oh sorry, this is not Yōhō, it’s Kawabata.

The Ba-to Squad is great, isn’t it?

Although it’s a brave military song, the heavy lyrics are quite emotional.

There is another amazing hero at Tabaruzaka, but I wonder when they will make their appearance.

Isn’t it time to reevaluate Ii Naosuke?

The protector of this country, Lord Naosuke, and the Hikone domain should be praised more, shouldn’t they?

>>22

It was for the country, but what ended up happening was that I lit the fuse…

I carried out an unprecedented purge.

Important people for those who would later be in the core of the Meiji government.

>>25

“But it’s written that the justice and evil of this country were turned upside down, so I was a villain at that time.”

Those kinds of people being at the core of the government probably won’t lead to a good outcome for that government.

The scene that came to mind during Nagano Shuzen’s last moments is an emotional memory of the four childhood friends bound by ties.

>>26

It’s funny that only Taka-sama is alive now.

If a revolution sparked by terrorism succeeds, public safety will increasingly deteriorate!

It is proven by various countries’ various histories.

Mr. Taka is clearly being kept alive without being eliminated, unlike Shimada and Shuze, who are generally in line with historical facts.

I feel like it might connect around Kioizaka.

>>29

Will it become a form of retribution for the Sakurada-mon incident that took years to unfold?

>>29

A hawk is coming while riding in a running carriage.

It’s a message from Shishio-san.

No matter how you think about it, Takasama is probably the mastermind behind the violence device in the climax.

The UK is attacking! Is it around the week after next?

>>33

The Satsuma-British War was the following year, so I don’t know.

I always had the image that bodies are thrown into the river in Kyoto, so it seems like if body parts were found rolling around, it wouldn’t cause much of a stir.

I wonder how many volumes it’s planned to be…

The Bakumatsu period is already long, and then there’s the Satsuma Rebellion and assassinations, so it seems like it will get really long.

>>36

At first, we were planning to move faster in the early stages, but since the sales of the first volume were good, they mentioned in the tankobon that they were able to thoroughly cover it up until the time before the Sakurada Gate Incident.

Maybe I’ll keep doing it for about another 10 years.

But doesn’t that make you feel uneasy about Taro getting killed by Taka too?

>>38

The child of a Taga person is a Taga person, right?

It’s up to you to make use of it or let it die.

The Taga faction, which was being dragged out at the beginning for one reason or another, has been completely wiped out, and Takasama has also exited the stage.

It feels like it’s about time to start the third part.

I honestly think it’s to make use of that, right?

It’s amazing that the original work still has so many intense climaxes.

>>44

Aren’t there too many events packed in?

The characters’ actions are also absurd and lack coherence.

The British man who barged into the recent daimyo procession was so foolish that his convenience-driven attitude was quite annoying.

In the first encounter scene, there’s already this much soliloquy, and from a meta perspective, Kawaji and Takasama are characters with a connection that doesn’t end with just the assassination of Nariaki, right?

>>45

The neck is long!

>>45

These days, my dirty mind was bottomless…

>>51

It was a time when I could do whatever I wanted without any worries…

>>51

I still think my mind is quick now.

Sakon-kun is lacking in good qualities aside from being a noble, and what are you doing, Inumaru?

>>53

Even if the body weakens, the sharpness of the mind hasn’t diminished, right?

I can’t take on big jobs because I don’t have enough resources left.

Descendants of a clan that was exterminated…?

The Sakurada-mon Incident has ended, and the Bunkyu Reforms have started (followed by the Namamugi Incident), so we are steadily passing through the key points of history.

The difficulty of the late Edo and Meiji periods lies in the countless checkpoints ahead.

For now, please describe in detail how similar the older sister’s face is.

Seeing the current lack of strong players, it makes me think that those five underlings were actually elite.

>>56

I think Takasama specifically said to preserve it, and the leader immediately saw through Shinbee’s true identity; they were just really competent individuals.
