It's November! Halloween is over yet people are still wearing silly costumes in ReBURST!

This week it's Ryouga vs Shin! Shin proves to be badass while Rurimaru proves to be incredibly annoying.

Shin is only in the BHS to fight really strong guys. He doesn't care about the money at all.

Shin has two attacks. His first attack is the Meisou Enbu, Sono Ichi - Fuuretsu Tenbu (瞑想演武 其の一 風烈転舞), or "Meditative Fighting, Number One: Violent Spinning Wind Dance. " This attack has him charging his opponent while spinning his whip-like arms around like a propeller. This forces Ryouga to jump up to avoid the attack. Shin then follows up with Meisou Enbu, Sono Ni - Tendou Gekiha (瞑想演武 其のニ 天道撃波), or "Meditative Fighting, Number Two: Heavenly Shock Wave." This is basically just a wave of energy he makes with his arms that hits Ryouga while he's in mid-air. His basic plan was to force Ryouga to retreat into the air so he would be wide open for his second attack.

The chapter ends pretty much like the last chapter did, with Ryouga's balloon about to pop. However, it looks like he's not fighting back because he has some plan, maybe...?
 
So... Fraud tells Hariru he's improved since they last met, and Calora wakes up, insisting she must quickly go and reveal to Hariru Fraud's true identity before it's too late.
Everyone else thinks Hariru's easily winning, except Hariru, who finds that Fraud is always dodging the focus of each attack so he doesn't get too hurt.
 
That picture of Miruto in a bikini pretty much sums up the only reason she even exists in the first place.

I wonder if she'll ever contribute anything to the plot, ever.
 
Milt exist for the sake of fanservice, pretty sad since I actually liked her.
 
Milt is such a cute girl, it's a shame she got kicked into the cliche "helpless female companion" shounen manga role. I guess that "Jake" stuff in the very first chapter or 2 was there just to make her seem important, and won't be brought up until the plot really needs it. :\
 
Club Sunday has put up the latest chapter of ReBURST on their website.

As it turns out...

Spoiling for actual plot twist.
Fraud's true form is the Boss of Great Gavel.
He used the energy of Pokemon to make himself younger.
It was Fraud that killed Hariru's father and village, not Arcades.

Ok! Hariru's chances of becoming a good guy have just skyrocketed!

So... Fraud found the key to the fountain of youth (or something like that). I should have seen that coming; the first part of his name probably comes from 不老... And speaking of fan service, I'm assuming Fraud is for the girls. (I'm going to need some eye bleach after seeing Fraud like that twice...).

His name implied it anyway...

Wonder when the other three warriors would show up (unless you-know-who is included)
 
What a twist!

If nakie Fraud is eye-candy for girls, then they aren't doing it right. I doubt many girls read this series anyway. XD Just watch the next color spread be even more fanservicey with Rurimaru, Pauline, and Milt of course.

Wait, why was Carola still in the forest? When Haril found her (before the see-saw battle the next day), was she just...left there while everyone went to the hotel for the night?

No, she was in the hotel as well.

She just left it to go to where everyone else was.
 
I'm kind of surprised they went ahead and revealed the boss before showing off the rest of the warriors. One would assume that Furohd (or however the hell you're meant to romanize his name) is the strongest member of the GG since he's the leader and all, so wouldn't that mean that the remaining three warriors are going to be weaker?
 
That's true. :\
I don't think the writer really thought that out much. It would've been better if Fraud was a strong GG Burst Warrior that also murdered people and stuff (like Haril's dad and others).
 
Well, he could always be hiding his true strength. Or maybe he needs some time to regain the strength because he's not used to this body.

Ryouga can't beat him now...otherwise this manga would probably end.

So, this week, Hariru and Fraud continue their battle. Fraud's technique is called Shield Shred in Katakana and Iron Wall Hew (鉄壁斬刻) in Kanji.

Also, child Hariru is adorable.

Edit: Hello? Am I the only one here?

This week on ReBURST!

Hariru reveals a new move. It's called Night Shadow Shot W...and it's basically just the same as his other Night Shadow Shot but double. (If you don't get it, "W" is a pun on the word "Double" in Japanese...)
