TAKUAN BRO???
I THINK I’VE REACHED THE POINT WHERE IT GETS REALLY AMAZING
EVERYTHING IN HIS CHILDHOOD CULMINATED IN HIM THE BELIEF THAT HE DESERVES TO DIE
Needed someone to show him the light, had to beat some sense into him, Takuan GOAT
Always thought Vagabond covers were fire whenever I saw them, reading it confirms this
Feel like I’m done with the first part of this story, the birth of Musashi Miyamoto, I feel like this is one of my favorite moments in manga, chapter 21 was just phenomenal.
LOVE when Inoue uses ink like this
INVINCIBLE UNDER THE SUN!!!!!! GOAT!
The irony in this situation is beautiful
LOOOOOOL LITTLE DUDE SMOOTH!
Yeaaaaaah Seijuro def my third fav so far, behind Musashi and Takuan
THE FOUNDATION OF MUSASHI’S TWO-HANDED SWORD STYLE!!!!!
Stopping here
LMAAAAAAAOOOOOO
Vagabond is great every chapter
Just like Musashi
This old dude > Yoda
“Erupting from the depths of Musashi’s subconscious, an involuntary howl” I love how this manga depicts their metal state and pressure during a fight
Choreography is very organic and easy to follow
And therein lies the difference between, this is gonna be something that Musashi will be able to learn from, and Inshun as well
RAGE
LOVE how fear is depicted here, this is Musashi’s first battle with a true prodigy and it’s been a struggle against fear, fearlessness being his greatest strength and he tries to cover it with rage, he sensed a bit of this fear against Denshichiro, but not quite like Inshun
This is meaningful for Inshun as well as Musashi’s the first person to ever put his life on the line with every stroke against Inshun, so this life & death experience with teach Inshun to put his all into his blow, we see the start of this and he does a battle cry
The demon fear clings to Musashi more tightly as the fight goes on
GOAT CHOREOGRAPHY
INSHUN SO COLD
COMPLETELY taken over by the darkness of fear
FUCK
NAH BRO THIS WAS A FUCKING 10/10 FIGHT, HAD HIM RUNNNNNNNNING, Musashi’s characterization from this is about to be so great. 50 chapters in and Vagabond a 10/10 man
Giving the first few chapters greater meaning by correlating it to Musashi’s current situation >>>>>
I love when themes get brought up again in later when a situation exemplifies them
Perfect lol
OMG DUDE
The interesting thing about Matahachi is that he isn& #39;t even weak, just a coward
BRO I AM FUCKING READY FOR THIS!
It’s phenomenal how Takezo was seen as a fearless demon, almost inhuman, and now Musashi suffers with fear, one of the most human emotions, as well as love because he wants to be Otsu
Nah bro the suspense is unreal
I’m in complete awe of what I’m reading
Selfless sword
No words
Bruh...
So glad he didn’t die
Top 2
LOL
Another fire cover
LMAO
GOAT
MUSASHI IS SO FUCKING GOAT
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY CRAZY
What an intense fight holy shit, only 3 words of dialogue in the whole chapter, I just know if this was animated it’d be amazing with everything being dead silent and only hearing the splashes of the water and Otsu’s flute
AHHHHHH I NEED THEM TOGETHER
This is just insane
Musashi’s so small
THE CONSISTENCY!!!!
ONE WITH HEAVEN AND EARTH!!!!!
To exude this much suspense from two men in a small room, with very few words exchanged and one sleeping nearly the whole time, it’s just, and to further characterize Musashi through it by associating nearly identical scenario to one he had with his father, it’s just unreal
Beautiful
I love how they didn’t say a single word but you can still gauge the relationship they have
I’m so fucking ready for this
Inoue is such a good colorist, love that green/red on Matahachi
