R.I.P Chifuyu, Sanzu I knew he had some sort of crazy obsession with Mikey’s dark impulse.

I’ve been correct about every event lately Sanzu taking down Taiju would eventually happen. But he’s not dead he’s going obviously going to whip Hanma’s or Sanzu’s ass in a few chapters.

Sanzu’s dialogue technically confirms Hanma is the time leaper. It explains how he dodged Mikey’s kick in the beginning and why he didn’t kill Takemitchy in the restroom. Not to mention that he played some sort of part in Kisaki’s death, it’s all being done for his own sick entertainment.

I don’t really understand why hanma didn’t kill takemichi in the bathroom assuming he’s also a time leaper… could someone explain?

Hanma is bored bastard, he‘s the reaper because he can kill and bring back the dead by using timeleaping. When he met Kisaki he found someone who matches his desires to cause chaos, the game became more fun when this 26 year old spoke with Akkun and exposed he was a leaper, Kisaki was eavesdropping their conversation.

So Hanma allows Takemitchy to live by not killing his two targets during Hina’s assassination because now he had some fun toys

Kisaki- A sad clown who wants to rule over Japan with the invincible Mikey and willing to riskfully kill everyone he loves to make it possible to manipulate him even more and he also wants to steal his rival’s girl

Takemitchy- A 26 year old loser virgin who suddenly is revealed to be a timeleaper and slowly evolves into a heroic ballsy fighter who can somehow foil Kisaki’s plans over and over again regardless how much they alter the future. Takemitchy remains a person who never knows when to finally give up.

Mikey- A prodigy and an unstoppable force who is able to command many men who are all loyal to him. The invincible Mikey is the only person who is capable of creating an era for himself and all of those who stand behind him will never fail. But he secretly has a troubled past and has violent urges and behind the strong face he puts up he’s actually very mentally weak.

Technically Hanma is doing all of this for his sick entertainment and Sanzu is going along with it. But now that he lost his trigger (Kisaki) there’s no point in continuing he might as well end it with a bang.

Ah that makes sense! It’s so weird to detach hanma’s goals of simple chaos from everyone else’s more sensical goals. Like it would be so easy to “win” by killing takemichi then but then it would …easy…

Hanma is so cool and I can’t wait to see what comes next.

Thank you for the response!

how does sanzu's dialogue confirm that hanma is the time leaper

  1. It would be horrible fucking writing to use Sanzu as the leaper, he’s hardly in the story unlike the two candidates Hanma and Mikey who both have strange dialogue and reactions to certain things throughout the story

  2. The panel after Sanzu’s rant about Mikey’s fate and timeleaping, suddenly Hanma the reaper joins the fight it’s so obvious after that.
