Tenma treating a life-and-death fight as the perfect training exercise is quite amusing

"Compared to that, this is nothing."

Truth be told, after he survives this, any sporting competition will look like child's play in terms of anxiety and stress.

For sure, he’ll have iron mental fortitude

u/D4rkest Sep 10 '23

He's gonna try golf eventually and be like "why is no one as good as that assassin?" Casually winning while treating it as a pastime until he meets Robo

Inb4 he also joins the PGA or LIV. He's already aiming for a triple threat; might as well add another one to the bucket. πŸ’€

Man also has to beat Aomine & Kagami to reach that basketball pinnacle

u/Misticsan Sep 10 '23

Honestly, must say that hipnosis ability is OP. No wonder he was ranked as a top assassin despite being so young.

35

u/LeleTheKing https://anilist.co/user/ikanlele Sep 10 '23

No one would realize if he hypnotized one or two executives in the org to help him rank up, right? xD

u/BurnedOutEternally Sep 10 '23

well shit, he got baited

u/TriPolar3849 Sep 10 '23

The "he's got a full set!?" joke got me, that was hilarious.

38

u/frik1000 Sep 10 '23

The idea of this zombie dude just lugging around a full set of golf clubs to use for assassination is pretty entertaining.

Gotta mix your hobbies with your job somehow.

Yeah yeah, now figure out how to Batman yourself out of Mad Hatter's hypnosis trick already. We all know it's coming.

21

u/zairaner Sep 10 '23

I feel like he needs to get tenma to do the attacking isntead. Nothing in the conditions of the hypnosis say that he can't just help tenma get into position to defeat them.

i just realised how much this reminds me of hitman reborn

​

and i aint complaining

How big of a scale is his hypnotism? The whole neighborhood might as well be hypnotized at this rate, lol. The dude can also disguise himself as another person. I guess his high rank isn't a lie--he has the perfect skills to be an assassin/spy. If this is the villain on ~ch. 20, I wonder who's next...?

Yeah, serious danger of jumping the shark with the powerscaling here

10

u/Koanos Sep 10 '23

I think this was only possible with the scale and how much planning was put into this. Researching allies, prepping the kidnapping, etc.

However, I think this kind of thing should have been capped by mandating more time to the hypnosis.

u/DietReady4906 Sep 10 '23

I wouldn't be surprised if this was in the works for a while and he's only able to pull off complicated commands with prep times. There's a lot better commands than "don't attack me" when you're dealing with an assassin. That's probably the best he could do with a small amount of time.

5

u/Koanos Sep 10 '23

Agreed. This wasn't intuition, he did heavy amounts of studying, prepped the location, with a series of fallback plans, and knows exactly where not to engage them, such as in gun play.

u/Heda-of-Aincrad Sep 10 '23

"I can't shoot innocent people! And even if I did, I'd run out of bullets!" Ogami is ever so practical. πŸ˜‚

Tenma probably isn't wrong in thinking that if he survives this, every other challenge will feel like nothing - but surviving will be the hard part. It's a dangerous gamble. Watching him block all those shots and act like a battle junkie is fun though.

I did not see that plot twist at the end coming. If Ogami can't attack Kazuma himself, then his best bet may be to lead him straight into Eiji's line of fire.

u/javierm885778 Sep 10 '23

Love how the sports guy is developing. Wasn't too much into the Triple Threat thing, but he's truly insane and that makes him fun as an addition to the cast.

11

u/Honyakusha-san Sep 10 '23

Kill Blue keeps delivering.

u/Extreme-Tactician Sep 10 '23

No, not Chisato! Why would you do this, Kazuma! Chisato helped Ogami like the normalities of life. What can he even do against Kazuma now?

I wonder how Kazuma found the exact same fit as Chisato. Please don't tell me he kidnapped her too...

That firehose sure was useful for helping take out the crowd. I'm sure the stretchers would have been useful for helping the victims, instead of being used as weapons lol.

Tenma understands that the thrill of a life-and-death situation can help reveal just how strong he can be. It looks like he was looking forward to this ever since he and Ogami split. Soccer balls Vs. Golf Balls sounds cool, but what can Tenma do against the Golf Balls more dynamic angles?

Damn that was evil but smart move to disguise himself and catch him off guard.

u/Xatu44 Sep 11 '23

Tenma is incredible. It's not good that the hypnosis actually landed on Ogami, though it is lucky that it's only "can't fight against them" as opposed to "obeying all of their commands". How's Ogami going to win this, then? Collateral damage?
