Oh, God, those cheekbones.

*Shrug*

I can't figure out what's going on.
What I do know is that Amu is basically sent into the bottom of a lake, and can't move. (He gets out)
Ryouga wins, and Gerubu takes Amu's Burst Hear. (For what? Fraud?)
 
I can't Burst Hear you! :p

Maybe Gerubu wants to give Amu's Burst Heart (assuming that that's his) to someone else? I mean, there's no use in letting a good magical jewel go to waste, is there?
 
Is Gerubu also trying to take away Ganku and Rovy's Burst Hearts? I think this legendary battle (a battle between Legendary Pokémon Burst Warriors) will end in the next chapter instead of this...
 
Just to let you know, Ryouga's attack sent Amu flying into a lake.

Uh, was he fished out? Because I don't think people usually live through that while unconscious.

Hardy har har.
 
So, today's chapter:

  • Ryouga and the others meet up and vow to go to Arcades.
  • Ryouga invites Hariru and Carola to join them; they decline.
  • Gerubu uses the Burst Hearts from the fallen generals to revive Fraud. He explains that the experience the three of them gained in their battle with Ryouga / Hariru made their Burst Hearts stronger.
 
Watch Arcades be an a-hole.

Watch it all be for naught, or Ryouga be strong enough w/o him...

And I still am betting Arcades has Kyurem as his BURST form.
 
So, Ganku, Rovy, and Amu were just test subjects for gaining experience. I wonder whatever did happen to their bodies them...

Well, it's nice to have a breather chapter. I like seeing Ryouga got glomped... twice.

As for Fraud, he mentioned about his strongest body being completed, does that mean the series is near its end...? (And the manga has only reached 65 chapters...)

I wouldn't worry. People thought the same thing when Ryouga went up against Fraud at the BHS (how can they go up against the leader of the GG already!?), but then Rug and the whole three generals thing happened.

After seeing this, I'm pretty sure Gerubu likes little boys. Or whatever Yappy is.

Oh, hey, Yappy's contributing to the plot. Yay.

Gerebu likes to trick young boys like Yappy. What is ZBC? Zekrom Broadcasting Company? Or What?

Err... Wait, where's Fraud's Bisharp (Kirikizan) Burst Heart? He lost it or what?

I think Great Gavel might seal Genesect into Burst Heart soon as the Genesect (a Zaku-looking mech-like Pokémon) has recently leaked (not yet officially revealed by Nintendo).

Right, I forgot the main point of the series was to find Arcades and Garyuu, not defeat Fraud of Great Gavel.

Gerebu likes to trick young boys like Yappy.
Yappy's a young boy!? I thought he was a middle-aged dwarf :p

What is ZBC? Zekrom Broadcasting Company? Or What?
Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation

Hiragana says Zetto Bii Shii, which is just the Japanese way of reading the letters Z.B.C.

Err... Wait, where's Fraud's Bisharp (Kirikizan) Burst Heart? He lost it or what?
Fraud was shown with his Burst heart, and just fused with Bisharp. He never lost it. But considering he was "revived" by the other three Burst hearts, does that mean he is fused with four Pokemon?

I think Great Gavel might seal Genesect into Burst Heart soon as the Genesect (a Zaku-looking mech-like Pokémon) has recently leaked (not yet officially revealed by Nintendo).
Seeing that he destroyed his own headquarters, there may still be a chance assuming he left the laboratory intact or he has another one somewhere else.

Nope, this manga series isn't going near end yet. I bet this will end in 2014 instead of this year.

And I still am betting Arcades has Kyurem as his BURST form.

Legendary Pokémon Bursts are Mitsuhisa Tamura (the author of manga series)'s most difficult part, so the Kyurem will not coming (yet) for this series.

Gerebu likes to trick young boys like Yappy.
Yappy's a young boy!? I thought he was a middle-aged dwarf :p

But in fact, Yappy's a 17-year-old dwarfed boy if most characters in the RéBURST manga are 20~30-year-olds.

Where did he say that?

Ryouga and the gang aren't that old, though Yappy's rather hard to tell. As for the others, well...
Rend and Sabin are most likely in their 30's or 40's
Fraud should be in his 60's/70's
Discounting the BHS participants and other one-shot characters, the only ones that are likely in their 20's are Shin, Rovy, Ganku, Kigyan, and Lukov
 
Volume six is coming out on September 18.

Since no one cares, let's post the newest chapter's pics.

....Sigh. I knew this was coming. I knew. The long, white hair. The main villain status. I knew that he looked like "that" Pokemon, but I didn't want to think about it. But it happened.

I mean, look at him! He has the crotch fur! How am I supposed to take this guy seriously, when he looks like he's waaaay too happy to be in this fight.

Maybe we should call him Furlord from now on :p

Honestly, I didn't see that coming, although the hair really should have made it obvious. As for the design, Fraud as a Reshiram Burst Warrior really reminds me of grown-up version of Lucemon. Then I just realized, Fraud would be the Luc**** to Halil's and Carola's Saviors, considering their names resemble certain words. And so, what I thought when Fraud said in the last panel as "The Final Dinner" can also be translated as The Last Supper... (I could be overthinking this though...

I'll just note that Fraud has turbine tail, while Ryouga doesn't. Does the lack of the tail have something to do with age or something?

As for my final comments, it's nice to see a manga (excluding ani-manga) where the roles of Reshiram and Zekrom are switched. I'm rather tired of seeing Zekrom as part of the main villain's team, so reading this manga is a nice change.

Sorry for the inactivity lately! Here's my summary for the second half of July:

Chapter 66: "Betrayal and Revenge and..."

Yappy's out in town by himself getting supplies for everyone. As he makes his way through the streets, he encounters Gerubu, the GG member he saw at the BHS! Gerubu asks Yappy to carry a communication device and use it to tell them when his group's reached Arcades. Gerubu presents Yappy with a suitcase full of (Japanese) cash and tells him that he can have up to 100 times that amount if he cooperates with them. When Yappy shows signs of hesitation, Gerubu adds that they'll also be able to get him a job at ZBC, the most prestigious media company a journalist could hope to work for! Yappy thinks about how rich and famous he'll be but, upon remembering Ryouga and the others, decides that betraying his friends is not worth it. He smashes the communication device on the ground and makes a run for it before Gerubu can attack. Gerubu doesn't pursue, however, since he was able to place a tracer on Yappy before he ran off.

When Yappy returns, he expects to be greeted as a hero for giving up money and fame to avoid betraying them. Instead, everyone just gangs up on him for getting the wrong food and medicine! Poor Yappy...

Meanwhile, over at the GG headquarters, Hariru and Carola prepare to sneak in and finally get their revenge on Fraud. They notice how nobody seems to be guarding the place and thinks it feels suspicious, but they continue to break in anyway. Inside, they come across a hallway with fallen soldiers everywhere! Hariru wonders if someone else got to Fraud first, but a still-conscious soldier lets him know that it was actually Fraud who attacked everyone in the building! Just then, the boss of the GG enters the room. After commenting on how totally different he looks since the BHS, Hariru asks Fraud why he would attack his own men like that. Fraud responds by saying that he simply no longer has any need for them; he's already absorbed enough pokemon to gain a perfect body, after all! Both Hariru and Carola Burst into Zorro'ark and Emboar, so Fraud Bursts into Kirikizan. A fierce battle begins...

Chapter 67: "The Evolved vs. The Strongest"

Hariru's and Fraud's battle is happening at such an amazing speed that Carola isn't even able to follow it! As the fight goes on, both Hariru and Fraud congratulate the other on how much stronger they've gotten since the last time they faced each other. Hariru figures he's about ten times stronger than he was during the BHS and yet Hariru is still stronger. On the other hand, Hariru is just a little bit faster than Fraud is, leading him to believe that if he drags this battle out long enough, Fraud will let down his guard. At that moment, Fraud de-Bursts! He tells Hariru that Kirikizan isn't the pokemon he's been training so hard to be able to make the most of and goes over to a throne at the end of the hall to retrieve a second Burst Heart. He then Bursts into a Reshiram Burst Warrior! On a boat headed toward the island where the GG's headquarters are located, Gerubu is delighted that the time has finally come.

Elsewhere, Ryouga and his friends have started training for their upcoming meeting with Arcades even though their wounds haven't all healed yet. Suddenly, dark clouds and an ominous sound divert everyone's attention outside. As Ryouga guesses that Fraud is the cause of this strange phenomenon, he notices that his Burst Heart has started to shake violently.

Back at the GG headquarters, Fraud the Reshiram Warrior prepares to attack Hariru.
