In a surprise to exactly no one, I fell asleep earlier.

Here’s my summary for the latest Chapter of Killer Killer: Everyone’s Own Intent to Kill



We pick up where we left off in the sewer, with Hijirihara once again swearing that he’ll kill Asano with his own hand.

She’s flattered by this for a moment before coming back to her senses and insisting that he needs to do it now, otherwise there’s no point. If she doesn’t die, tons of people will–

Someone up above hears them talking, so they have to take off again, a little under 19 hours left on Asano’s clock.

Outside, Hijirihara and Asano run into a crowd blocking their way–not of Mirai Kikan agents, but regular ol’ Joes brandishing pipes. They apologize to Asano, but explain that they have to kill her to prevent the bombs from going off. They rush forward to attack…

And are staved off by FF agents claiming that they’re securing Asano. They engage the mob with their hilarious fencing swords and an agent tries to pull Asano away. Hijirihara grabs his arm though, as an observant civilian sees an opportunity to bash Asano’s head in. He moves to attack before Hijirhara can stop him, and Asano braces for death, but the blow is stopped.

By none other than a Remnant of Despair.

(Did I screenshot this page just because it mentions Junko? Why yes, yes I did.)

They join the fray, the agents asking if they’re trying to protect Asano in order to trigger the bombs Fujigawa hid in the major cities. Asano looks on in horror at the brawl, feeling responsible, and Fujigawa notes that humans are all potential murderers and so to eliminate murder, it’s best to wipe out humanity. Does Hijirihara get it?

Meanwhile, over at the 6th Branch, Punchin’ Bro is doing what he does best aside from fucking up: punching Remnants in the face.

Dougami appears, bringing reinforcements.

(Did I screenshot this just because I love Dougami? Why yes, yes I did.)

Sakakura however receives as message on his iPhone 10 and he tells Dougami it’s all gonna be okay. Why? she asks. Sakakura smiles a big gay grin and answers “Because he’s getting involved.”

Back at the three-way throwdown, Asano is still processing that she’s the cause of all this pandemonium. There’s a lot of fighting going on, but then suddenly, who appears but Munakata! (Exactly no one is surprised, right?)

He tells Asano that he’s going to be taking her into custody, but Hijirihara ain’ having none of that and gets in his way to block him. Munakata muses that this is the one Sakakura told him about huh…he should have taken care of him when he had the chance.

A couple of agents grab Asano to haul her away, and Hijirihara moves to save her, but Munakata holds him at blade point. (No sissy fencing blades for Fukukaichou, I guess.)



From off to the side, someone says not to be too hasty and walks into frame.

There’s only one person with gross ankles like that who refuses to cover them with socks like a sensible human being.

That’s right, Tengan “Grandpa Danger” Kazuo has appeared. Munakata asks him why he’s here while Tengan rambles about how he shouldn’t be holding a weapon to an underling. Munakata asks if Tengan wants to let Hijirihara do as he pleases. Tengan says that there’s a chance that Hijirihara could succeed (in his plan to stop Fujigawa) but Munakata wants to know who’s going to take responsibility if he fails. Tengan says him, of course–he’s the chairman, afterall.

Tengan goes on to say that Munakata doesn’t trust Hijirihara at all and that will be a problem if he wants to be the head of the Mirai Kikan. Munakata demands proof of how Tengan knows Hijirhara can be trusted, and he replies it’s just his old man’s intuition. (Which we all know from Mirai-hen to be FLAWLESS, right?)

Anyway, he says there’s a way to verify his hunch. What does Asano think? She knows Hijirihara better than anyone else in the Future Foundation after all. She thinks about it, considering that there’s no reason to trust him since he’s Killer Killer, but despite that…

He can be trusted…as long as he has love!

This goes about as well as you’d imagine it would.

A-Anyway, Asano says, she trusts him. It’s okay if he kills her, because he has the Love of Killing!

Tengan then tells a bold-faced lie, saying that he doesn’t understand the love of killing, but he trusts Asano. He tells Munakata to let them go, it’s up to them now. Asano is moved and thanks him as they run off.

“If you trust them, why did you put that on them?” Munakata asks, and Tengan chuckles and says he’s been found out, huh? Turns out he slipped a tracking device into Asano’s pocket without her knowing that I guess also has a bomb in it since there’s a button to detonate on Tengan’s phone.

However, he really is leaving the future up to them. He’s intending to wait until the time limit. To see if Asano will put her own life above the lives of countless others? Munakata asks.

“…In order to grasp true hope,” crazy-eyed Tengan replies, “sometimes extreme measures are necessary.”

Tengan, does anything you do make sense ever? No?



Are we sure he’s not like…a terminal gambling addict?

Meanwhile, the fleeing Hijirihara and Asano head down various streets until Asano gathers the courage to ask about where Fujigawa is. Hijirihara replies that it’s here.

At their old middle school.

Also there’s only an hour left on Asano’s clock, which indicates that the fight scene or the fleeing (or the conversation with Tengan) took a really, really long time.

Fujigawa watches them enter the school on his phone, noting that Hijirihara must really not get it if he came all the way here.

Fujigawa hides out in his locker in their old classroom, the grim reminders that Mukuro is a ruthless hardass still staining the floor and walls.

And that’s is for this month.

Only two chapters til the finale!
