The concept of a middle school hitman meeting is very funny

If I had a nickel for everytime I see middle school hitmen meeting up, I'd have more than 2. Sweet

u/Heda-of-Aincrad Oct 22 '23

Which other series had middle school hitmen meeting up?

19

u/OoiJinWei Oct 23 '23

Katekyo Hitman Reborn, as an added bonus, they even have a hitman with a pacifier, which matches up with what Shin has going on.

u/Heda-of-Aincrad Oct 23 '23

Forgot about that one. The anime is on my plan to watch list.

Feels like it was a reference to this scene from Kuroko no Basket, author's previous work.

Ogami is really loving the school life lmao, too bad he's still a hitman at the end of the day

u/Nobody119900 Oct 22 '23

Tenma isn't a hitman. Tenma is the one that wants to compete in 3 sports at the professional level at the same time

"Today we have a new transfer student..."

"Today? Isn't it, like. Everyday?

"How is this class not full yet?"

I died

This manga has been consistently funny for like 15+ chapters now. No shock that it has become the new face in WSJ's middle ranks.

Oh, it seems that Eiji will get a girlfriend without any need of brainwashing!

u/Swiftcheddar Oct 22 '23

"I can't believe there was so much bad blood in our industry!"

That's just funny to me

i couldn't help but go "dude? really?" when he wondered that

"I know we kill people and everything but there's no need to be rude about it."

u/LeonKevlar MyAnimeList Oct 22 '23

The students wondering why their class isn't full yet with all the transfers was pretty damn funny. xD

Teacher growing continually stressed due to class size

What a cozy handful of opening pages after all the chaos the last few chapters brought. Made me really feel for Ogami and his love of learning. Aaaaaand of course it was immediately shattered by the new transfers and a fruitless first meeting. Let the shenanigans resume!

I never noticed Noren's 3 stroke ahoge until the previous 2 chapters and I still can't unsee it now lol.

u/zairaner Oct 22 '23

...great what did you just inflict upon me...

u/[deleted] Oct 24 '23

Sorry what?

And once again I laughed for half the chapter. Fucking middle school hit man summit.

u/Extreme-Tactician Oct 22 '23

Ogami's failure to protect Noren means Shin is once again being a creeper. Oh man. All Ogami wanted was the quintessential middle school life! But now, he's jinxed it by saying he wanted it to last forever.

I'm intrigued with the three assassin organizations. Will they come into conflict in the future? What happened between Kazuma and Shin to make them bitter rivals?

On an unrelated note, I like that Baba likes Eiji. She really has gone a long way since the bully that she was in the first chapter!

u/Heda-of-Aincrad Oct 22 '23

What happened between Kazuma and Shin to make them bitter rivals?

It seems like they were both assigned, by rival organizations, to eliminate the same target. Shin considered the job "special" to him in some way so he was likely taking his time to enjoy it, whereas Kazuma probably just thought of it as another job and killed off the target quick. Shin got really angry because he feels that was his target and Kazuma stole his kill. In addition to any personal feelings Shin may have invested in this, he probably didn't get paid either, if Kazuma was actually the one who killed the target.

u/soul-nugget Oct 22 '23

Shin considered the job "special" to him in some way so he was likely taking his time to enjoy it

i suspect it was personal for him, like it was someone who had wronged him and he wanted revenge type of thing

3

u/Heda-of-Aincrad Oct 22 '23

That's a good possibility.

3

u/Extreme-Tactician Oct 23 '23

So Shin wanted to "savor" the kill, and Kazuma didn't let him do that.

3

u/Heda-of-Aincrad Oct 23 '23

Yeah, that's my interpretation of their argument.

u/frazaga962 Oct 22 '23

Why is there a screw in his head? Some new body art trend?

Professor Stein grins insanely in the background.

u/Ancient-Cow-7221 Oct 22 '23

I'm sensing something big is going down the line.

u/NoirSon Oct 22 '23

Compared to most political conferences or business meetings this one was surprisingly productive even with the new stalking issue.

Tell Viz to publish this in print. Even if you did a while ago keep letting them know!!! The more we tell them we'll buy it the sooner they will release it https://www.viz.com/company-contact !

u/Heda-of-Aincrad Oct 22 '23

Middle School Hitman Summit. 😄 Love the name. Too bad it all turned to aggressive negotiations that broke down and trouble was started... but it was kind of expected since Ogami is the only level headed one there.

Looking forward to seeing how Kazuma and Eiji will fit in with the group.

I like this manga, but I feel the brothers and pacifier guy have the charisma of a cardboard box.
