Can't wait! Do you know where I could read some scanlations? I've only been able to follow via hearsay from forums z
 
Besides, I don't think anyone is actually scanlating it.

Looking at the front cover of volume 2...I'm guessing someone likes the colour green? I tried to calculate how much it would cost to get volume 1 from Amazon Japan...yeah, over £35 >>
 
Looks like we have to wait to see if Viz or someone will pick it up sometime in the future. Can't blame the guy for liking green so much, it's everywhere in real life.

Looks like we won't see an up-close view of Faust's burst until Ryouga/Haril battles him. Hah, Rabine's burst isn't as bad as I thought it would be, but still doofy. I didn't really like how they "flipped" the Pokemon's design on his burst, with the chest buttons on his hat and the head shape/design on his body. Not that it matters since I doubt most of the contestants will appear again (unless the author pulls an Oda and have them appear far into the story).

Amazon Japan just has superexpensive Japan-to-UK-in-2-days-style shipping, so you're probably better off getting it from somewhere like CDJapan. I've bought from them quite a bit before and never had a problem, plus they don't have super-expensive shipping fees.

I see, thanks a lot (when it comes to importing things from Japan...I'm not sure where to start xD).
 
Man, both your avatars made me do a double take in confusion.

I'm guessing volume 2 has chapters 8-14 roughly?
 
In before a jerkass male character soon appears and says that bursting is a "man's thing". :V

OMG LOOK! Actual Pokemon holy cr--and they're gone! That sure was quick!

So, we have our final four.

...Kinda sad how none of the females made it to the next round...

This is a shonen manga; unless their strength is made absolutely apparant, women aren't allowed to be strong.

Apparently...
 
I think it's pretty cool how Hariru only took Ryouga's "1" medal. He could have just taken all the medals and left him with zero chance of advancing to the next round, but I guess he respects him too much to screw him over like that.

So who wants to bet Hariru becomes Ryouga's ally before the end of the series?

If Ryouga wasn't the main character, Hariru probably would have done xD

Law of Shonen manga: 1) Beat someone up 2) They become your BFF.
Yeah, it'll happen =3
 
So.... looks like the pictures are in the right order this time.
Ryouga tries to win the 3rd stage, but ends up losing his way and ends up where the losers are kept, and promises Karta he'll win and give him all the billion yen prize money, before getting escorted away on a bed of Girders? And arrives back with Pauline, who scolds him for keeping her waiting but says she'll let him off since she didn't set a time limit, then declares the semi-finals to be tomorrow just because she's tired out. Over some balcony, Ryouga reminisces how far he's come and whether he'll meet Arkades someday, before randomly falling asleep.
 
Courtesy of karubiimunomono, we have new images.

and by "new", I mean exactly the same as before. Just in higher quality.

And three more!

It's nice to have a non-action chapter due to the mess that's been happening recently.

I feel sorry for the losers, they have to mill around with no food or water. "For the losers: No-Food-Or-Water-Survival!" Good to see them again, though!

Also, I'm a bit surprised of the longer appearance of actual Pokemon, instead of being shown in only 2 panels out of many in a chapter. :p
 
Picture's n' stuff.

This round is... シーソー風船サバイバル, Seesaw Balloon Survival.

Also, volume 2 was released in Japan today!
Can anyone translate the second image? I'm not sure what the joke is....

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to bleach my eyes.
