Chapter 57 - Rescue

I had this all written and then a network error tossed it on post, sigh... Trying again...

When I first read the TOC for volume ten and saw the title for this chapter I thought it might be all over. Not yet... They are not rescued in this chapter.

Instead, Ryota is still trying to rescue everyone from the island and even themselves. He isn't satisfied with four people winning the game by killing the other 28 people. He wants them all to hijack a helicopter.

So he fights but not to kill. He uses BIMs and a stick to knock his opponents out and take their BIMs. Of the team of four he gets all but Togo, even Kira without killing him.

At the end of the chapter he comes up on Hidemi on the beach and Oda on the cliff.

The last bit shows a teaser for volume eleven coming in May. I just might have to start buying Bunch magazine as I am not sure if I can wait until then. It shows Oda helping Ryota up the cliff.

Pure speculation on my part: I am worried that Ryota left Himiko for even a little while. I hope Togo doesn't find her before they meet up again!

I am sure I have forgotten stuff on the second try, may add more later...

Hello. I would like to thank you for sharing the awesome summary. I also think he shouldn't have left Himiko even for just a little while!

Kira's face was hilarious when he got hit with that stick, Sakamoto was a boss in this chapter.

I wonder if Oda will just accept's his terms.

S2Scans have been doing a hell of a job lately- three chapters over the course of two weeks.

I've bought the tenth volume when it came out so I knew roughly what was going to happen but it's still cool to read it again. Now it's time to wait for the next book which, coincidentally, is being released in a few weeks' time.

Ryota should have shown his mad skills earlier in the manga/anime so that people cannot call him dumb lol

Funny how Oda and Hidemi continued to stare at each other while bombs from Ryota's fight exploded around them xD. Oda might care for forehead girl more than he thinks.

Kira's submission was hilarious. The kid should have lost conscious from that point black attack to the head :)). The bombs Ryota took away are not his so they are just extra baggage. He should throw them away.

btw, where is Himiko?? I see the bromance coming from the last page. It's time for the girls to get jealous :))

Throw the bombs away and risk the rightful owners taking them back? Ryouta took the bombs to immobilize the enemy and lessen a potential threat, which quite frankly, is the wisest thing to do if you're trying to avoid any casualties.

^ What I meant is throwing them away where his opponent cannot get them back, preferably off the cliff into the depth of the ocean ;)

You don't say!
Some of us prefer to have the chapter translated because they don't speak the language the original medium's written in and do not want to look at the raw chapter, trying to guess the contents of the conversations.

Ryouta is such a badass! He whacked Kira's head with a stick and Kira's face looked freaking hilarious. Ryouta wants to become allies with everyone instead of killing them. Oh man, Ryouta meets up with Oda again...

2 things I loved about this chapter

Kira's face


And noob

Had a thought after reading hpulley's post in the last game there were 3 other survivors beside Date,I wonder if any of them got sent to the island too.


I lol'd at those two scans too, particularly that noob. God, he's bad at this game. ^_^

Darn, and I was hoping that Ryouta would obliterate that brat. Oh well, watching him get that stick cracked upside his head was entertaining enough.

Oda, my love~! Don't try anything that might get you killed.

What a lively discussion we have here. I just realized how I haven't been keeping up with manga and decided to catch up on Btooom! And it was the right choice xD This chapter is juts as good at keeping me in suspense as the others. If only we got more of the romance.

Sakamoto move so quickly. Interesting now he got all the bim and plan to hijack the helicopter. Save Oda will be not easily or maybe as a team I guess.

Why the fuck does Ryouta want to team up with so many of these blatant sadists and murderers? He constantly spares them or tries to offer an alliance to get off the island, ignoring that they're actively trying to kill him with zero hesitation about it. I get at least being nice enough to offer some sort of teamwork with some of the innocent characters who haven't hunted down others, but besides Himiko and Taira (at least initially), those seemingly don't exist.
