I would make akihito"s body more manly, I will make him fight all the rapists except asami

More ambigous Aki! (⊙…⊙ )

Asami, I would make him less hypermasculine and less "rapey" because honestly that can be annoying sometimes. Also teach him how to bottom sometimes sheesh.

I would change the way Asami 'punished' Akihito in that fateful first chapter. Less drugs, bondage, catheter and film roll humiliation please Asami - you naughty boy! I am well aware that psychologically Akihito (or anyone for that matter!) would not be able to really bounce back from that so easily - and it's always kind of bugged me. In a way it's a shame that this encounter had been the base for which everything else has developed. That's it!

I like this one! I wold add that I would have him kick sexual harassers in the balls too.

I would make them saying "I love you" during sex ... They didn't say it at all while they do soo much

I don't think my heart could take it!

I liked Rommy's too,

Fei needs a hair trim

Less "rapey"!! This made me laugh!!

I like this new solution: more ambiguous Aki, less rapey Asami and seeing him bottoming and treating Aki as an equal. Our Aki derserves it.

Asami quits smoking (and Akihito torments him while he is going through withdrawal) and both verbalizing their feelings more.

I would make Aki learn from his mistakes and be a little harder to victimize. I'm sure he'd still get into trouble, but the bad guys would have to work harder to get the better of him.

These are great responses!

This is very true, I did have quite the 'face palm' moment when Akihito got outwitted by the old roofie in the drink trick! Who takes a drink from some mystery blonde in a shady club that belongs to your arch nemesis?! Though I think it would be weird to see a wizened, mature Akihito. Nice! - But weird (≧∀≦)

Would be fun to turn them into vampires ...

She wasn't a mystery blonde. Akihito knew exactly who she was and in his mind, she was a victim. Why on earth would he connect someone he considered a victim with a devious crime lord with a history of raping him? Armchair quarterbacking.

A vamp. culture under the guise of yakuza mob war. Source of the dispute what is a true Vamp. (the cont. drinking of human blood) A split has ocurred in the comm. of vamp. and some are calling for and outright ban on the practice(Takaba A) others don't want it stopped at all, wanting all bans lifted, even suggesting those that call for banning it are not real vamps. Half bloods(Takaba) are a blight. jpn. human pop. has fallen Takaba is not willing to let the vamps have their way Is war on the way?

I agree I wouldn't want him wizened or even mature--just a bit more street smart.

Well, I would--but I would have noticed right away she wasn't a victim there.

Alright there love chill your beans, you know perfectly well what I meant! You didn't catch on that I was joking when I mentioned the 'arch nemesis' bit??? (〜￣△￣)〜

I have seen Ashiteru used but one time the whole time I have been reading manga. That was at the end of story. Rommy 69 is right abt. it's use. The writer made sure to highlight the word to let the reader know how special it was.why ? to appeal to her core aud. which is in Jpn. not the West. We would not know what the word would mean. Jpn. is one of the hardest lang. to understand bec. a lot of it has sig. cult. context. therefore implied. You know it because you are Jpn.

Exactly my thought!! I would like to see a non-smoking Asami. I don't like cigarettes and I don't like the stereotype that we can often see that the "bad guys" are smokers. When I say the "bad guys", it means the people who belong to the mafia/who are doing illegal things, etc...

I like the fact that Aki and Asami aren't using a lot of words to express their feelings. I like to see their gestures, their gazes when they're looking at each other or their silences which often speak more than a lot of words, but I also would like to see them say more words about their love, especially from Asami. I'd like to see a little bit more of the jealous side of Asami too.

i was thinking it was undertaker too.

I think it is vampires. Who or what else would need so much blood.

Me! (●'◡'●)ﾉ (๑•ㅂ•)و✧

'Kay, how many scoops? (by the way the flavour is "If I Had a Thousand Flavours" - still in?) ლ(´ڡ`ლ)

Ah, you are too late - I binged after I found the first peanut butter cup - but at least we have a new chapter to celebrate! (▰˘◡˘▰)

One..
Amano - 1
Touya - 2
Hazuki - 3
Shana - 4
Ruou - 5
We're missing 1
But that doesn't make sense in the first place cause Shana and Ruou never died.
A group of Shinma worriors came to earth, fought to close Hell's gate. Only Raki, Garai and Touya left. Garai killed Raki. Made six souls including Touya's and his own to build a barrier. If Ruou's and Shana's souks were used as part of barrier, they should've died and reincarnated just like the other three.

No, there were ten seals, but 13 warriors with divine beasts. I think that Raki, Garai and Touya were with six other warriors at the gate, but they died and their souls were used to finish sealing the gate ...

I mean 5 plus Garai - not six

yeah but Ruou and Shana were not part of the 8 who came to earth. That's why they can't make the situation head or tail. Ten seals were what Amano saw in his mind. Prince's Ren's barrier only has 6 seals. If you take it as 5 warriors plus Garai, then what happened to Touya? I'm pretty sure Touya seal was used in barrier cause the Himi clan descendants saw the seal. If we calculate all five warriors and Touya, Garai can't be part of the barrier cause his soul is already overwhelmed by keeping the forbidden spell in place. Or if we consider Garai as part of the barrier, one unnamed warrior escaped the forbidden spell so his soul should have been transferred back to their realm, not being chained down on earth by the spell.

I think the six seals were the five warriors and Garai, the ten seals include Raki and Touya - I don;t think Touya died at the gate, Garai was trapped body and soul and Raki was only trapped physically (so his spirit travels to Kou) Touya - don't know what happened but his spirit travelled. Garai's did not - which is why Kouichi has an incomplete binding? Just speculating of course. I am not sure why there were only 10 seals for 13 warriors though, that answer may yet come.

I'm also inclined to believe that Touya was not part of the barrier because that would explain why 5 warriors' souls were not reincarnated. Garai's soul was damaged beyond repair so Hazuki only inherited Tarupa without Garai's mana. Garai's soul cannot possibly be reincarnated. Raki's soul reincarnated cause Garai saved his soul with forbidden spell. Touya's soul got reincarnated cause he was not part of the spell. He only used his body to seal Raki's soul inside it so the damaged soul can heal over time.
But it's confusing because Himi clan actually knows the Touya seal. Himi doesn't have the knowledge of the other realm. They can only see what's in front of them. They only know the six seals which they found on prince Ren's barrier. So why are the Touyas part of the clans to protect the barrier?

Well, they were the traditional clan that provided the 'strongest warriors' to the Shinma and seemed to adopt the role of protector, so perhaps that tradition was passed down?

I think you're talking about the real Touya clan from the other realm? The Touya clan Himi knows is called that way only for namesake. They don't even carry the same Kanji characters. The real Touya clan's name is written with 'blade' and 'evil'. Anyway, I don't suppose Garai and Touya left any offspring. I wonder where all these clans popped up from. But I guess Garai was the one who gave the name to fake Touya clan. Although, he couldn't pass down the same mana because it wasn't his own mana. So the name became in different meaning. It still doesn't explain why Himi will see the Touya's symbol on the barrier. According head lady of Himi, there are only six seals. Then Touya's seal shouldn't be part of the calculation.

The Tohya mana was not passed down genetically, at least I don't think so, it was given to whomever was the strongest and could win the blade at the temple. As for the Touya clan, I am thinking that if they come from parallel universes, then sometimes similar ancestors could appear? I know the Shinma had the 'elf' ears that the people in this world don't, but that could be throwback genetic mutations. Hopefully these things will be explained in future chapters.
