Annual Usagi Yojimbo Storytime pt 16

Usagi Yojimbo by Stan Sakai. Almost time for the duel at kitanoji temple. Looks like I'm not beating my "In less threads" goal. By this point last year we were already in the midst of travels with Jotaro

I wonder who, in their prime, would be the better swordsman?
Usagi with his experience on the road?
or Jotaro with his natural talent?

>They must be dead tired
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH

Milking it like a chocolate cow.

I would hope so, the evil sister thing hasn't been tied up.

I think Uaagi is doing an impression of his spirit hunter friend.

I have forgotten who that guy is!

This brings up a bit of a paradox; if you are superstitous and do all the spirit appeasing stuff, but if spirits are actually real, then are you really superstitious?

Look at the good side my dude, at least this picture is still accurate.

Attached: TheMadman.png (1629x2417, 2.64M)

It's a looong storytime so it's probably best that you take the breaks you need, Dharma.

I would still bet on Usagi. Experience matters.

I bet he is revered as the patron saint of horses, by horses.

RIP Koji. He was truly best boy.

>Usagi openly denounces bushido
This is an extremely important moment for him as a character, but it is so rarely spoken about it's criminal.

Aww, Chizu likes kids. And admits she is a big softie.

She does not hold a grudge...

She's protective...

And there's that. Tomoe may be a sweetheart, but how can she compete?

>I have had experience with hauntings and exorcisms

Lol. You're gonna have a whole lot more experience soon, buddy.

Careful what you imitate, lest you invoke it.

True. This whole Koji storyline is a powerful moment in Usagi's character development even.

In their prime? I’d say Jotaro, not because of the students but because their teacher has had years more to learn.

Reposting!

Don't forget to vote!

I do like that its rather low-key if you've been reading through the story. Because Usagi's change and character development is so gradual and natural you hardly think its anything out of the ordinary when you first read it.

Attached: 1525133669647.png (1010x768, 302K)

So Im not trying to make A THING of it or argue the bitches didn't have it coming, but I can't think of too many instances where Usagi fights and subsequently mercs women.

There was that member of the WE ARE DEATH squad. And the mercy kill. Do yokai count?

What will her kiss count be After Tomoe makes her tap out and kiss her foot?

>Do yokai count?
I want to say NO, if only because they're usually in monster form.

Chizu is gonna make Tomoe tap and then make her lick something else

I don't think our drawfriend is going to want to go THAT far!

some insinuation is just as good

Time to sucky some Jimbo!

Cue the Rocky3 freezeframe.

Wasn't it just ambiguous? She had a nightmare that the sister was alive and that was it?

Oh Usagi, lying right into the face of an innocent child.
He really IS a parent.

In a world where ghosts and demons exist, having an actually prophetic dream about your evil sister surviving and promising to make your life a living hell wouldn't be anything extraordinary.

Perhaps she can make Tomoe a widow, wink, wink

You know, I am a father for less than 5 months, but it hurts my heart that neither Jotaro nor Usagi are brave enough to tell the other the truth. It was sad to me before, but now, when I have a child and I understand what parents feel towards their kids, it's just tragic. Especially after seeing how alike they are and how much they love spending time together.

Just casually talking about how Usagi had the sword of the gods in front of his nephew.

These two fuckers just laughing off them killing ninjas just two seconds ago.

Ah good Fantomah or The Spectre got to him.

Yeah but you're not trained in the way of the Bushido, user.

Bushido is bullshit.

t. Usagi

Kenichi knew Mariko was pregnant when he married her

>Chizu
Am I the only one who can't get over that her name is "cheese"?

Not only this , but unlike Usagi, he stayed behind to help a village that needed his support instead of fucking off to live his bushido power fantasies and regret it all later. Now he is basically a mayor-sheriff, while Usagi is a homeless jobless vagabond.

Doesn't it mean "map" in Japanese?

That intense huh? How do you feel about the end of Yokai now, as a new father?

We got what, 4 pics last year? We got one so far this year. Here's hoping for three more!

I really hope that no tragedy will befall me or my family and make my wife turn into a demon witch! But more seriously, now I can't watch or read anything that has a child which is sad, hurt or mistreated without my heart skipping a beat. Becoming a dad really changes a man. I now fully understand why Stan calls all children a treasure and why he made Usagi like kids so much.

Bless you, dad-user.

I am so damn sick of him not fucking die

HAHAHAHAH REFERENCE! IT'S FUNNY CUZ THEY GOT THE SAME NAME!

Fuck off.

look man
I literally just started watching jojo's last week
all jojo's jokes are funny to me right now

>late getting to something that's been around for decades
Yeah that's typical of a Jojofag.

Would you rather have another wojak edit ya joyless cunt?
Seriously, newfags these days, first coming here to talk about not Yea Forums, then bitching about storytimes, and now even bitching about original content.
You'd be much happier in wherever hole you originally came from.
next time lurk for a million years before posting.

>Jojofag calling someone else new.
Come off, it. Don't get pissy when someone calls you out on your own shit. It's always jojofags who have to turn everything into a jojo reference for the most tenuous of reasons.

jojo's is from 1987
everyone's late to it

They are both hardened killers at this point. They probably can't have much sympathy to spare for every single person whose tried to kill them

>Uhhh booohoo j-jojo f-f-fags
This will not save you, not here, you cannot deflect this one.
The fact that you bitch about OC and then spout newfag spiel about anime fools absolutely no one about your origins.
I bet If I google your fucking post I'll find the fucking same result copypasted in fucking reddit or facebook or some shit, down to the fucking all caps.
Just erase yourself from this board you waste of space, and from this planet while you're at it,

What crawled up your ass and died? And what is wrong with discovering things decades later, especially if you are decades younger? Jojo is over 30 years old (and Usagi is only a year younger!), some teenagers who read it in 1986 already have grandchildren. You are not the fun police, fuck off.

Not him but it is a bit grating. For whatever reason people just love turning everything they can into jojo references. It gets pretty old. I can't really think of any other fandom that is as obsessive about inserting it everywhere, save maybe mlp back during it's height.

I'm not gonna be as dramatic about it as that guy, but that's my two cents about the matter

Yeah but that's different.
One thing is making anime threads on Yea Forums and then people complaining about it, that is normal.
When people come here and regurgitate that spiel whenever anything that looks vaguely anime in a thread that has one or two instances of it, because they saw others do it on the other thread in an attempt to fit in, especially in a thread where it's consistent with the thread, especially when it's original content, Now that is grating.
Sure there were pony spam or even the touhou hijacks in olden times, but that's the thing, the objectives of those kind of posts were different, the objective was to derail and take over the threads en masse and never to add anything to it, the reaction was justified back then.

Your two cents aren't a pile of obnoxious bitching for no reason and are actually quite informative, so you're cool in my book.

>Fujitive again
Maybe that's just how it's spelled in Hawaii.

It's actually a clever portmanteau of FUJI(Big) and fugitive because she's not just a random outlaw.

Where caan i view the previous images? Like for this story time and the last one

just kidding, they'd just team up

>You become an expert swordsman so you don't have to fight.
>t. Changes the murder capital of Japan by walking around

To be fair, he's just a magnet for bandits, killers, and monsters. If they'd just put off their various plans til like a day or so later, they'd all probably live to tell the tale

I am sorry you feel that way. The tragic backstory didn't help?

Thank you for this. Grew up reading these; loving them at least as much reading them now.

Objectively best girl

She's the best girl at begging Tomoe for mercy [/spoiler[

Is it To-Mo or To-Mo-Eh?

The latter. She's named after Tomoe Gozen. Real life lady samurai and generally all around interesting historical person.

She cute

I love Usagi but Conan has this in the bag. He’s more multi classed than a dungeons and dragons bard.

If no one posts them I’ll post them later today.

The bamboo sword block was great. It’s making me look forward to the next.

I love that Mariko is falling while the real fight is between Tomoe and Chizu. Stan knows that the Usagi bowl is really between those two.

tragic backstories almost never help
I don't know, there's just so many he can be brought back after dying before I'm just kinda done

Bit of an excessive spergout here but I agree with the sentiment, Jei outlived his value as a character long before Inazuma. I don't know if Stan realized this and that's why she hasn't shown up in the comic for a million years or if it's just the same old "Stan hates every old character but Kitsune and Ishida" thing. More Katsuichi and Geishus when

yeah of course
that's why it would be a team up episode
who could stop them?

I think that with Jei's backstory revealed, the next time he and Usagi meet is going to be their final encounter. That would be their fourth battle (Usagi was not around for Jeinazuma) and we all know what four also means in Japanese.

While I agree that anything but one more final encounter would be overdoing it, one major appearance of Jei for each 6 years of the comic is far from making me bored with him.

My two bits on Jei: After you read something once, it's way easier to see all the strings used to pull a story together, like Jei's power creep to make Grasscutter epic. Jeinazuma was a shocking twist the first time, and probably the best period for the character. But the body hopping really opens up a can of worms. Hama didn't have much impact when he became Jei, and returns to the original character design. I trust Stan to keep future jei stories interesting, he's been doing this a long time, but as is, had inazuma been exorcised and have that be the end of it, that would have been a satisfactory end to the character.

We're still owed a Sasuke/Jei battle.

I would argue an expert swordsman is the one who survives his battles and avoids as many as possible so he can remain an expert swordsman without turning into a hero.

Speaking of plot points Stan "owes" us:
- Sasuke vs Jei (obviously)
- One more Gen/Stray Dog meet up
- Chizu taking her clan back
- Tomoe's wedding (with a possible return of her crazy sister who may or may not still live)
- Jotaro's training stories, some Katsuichi badassery and them catching up with Usagi

And Tomoe meeting Chizu.

Interestingly, both of them have met Kitsune.

First one is:
This is the Chizu victory.

Since Mariko and Kitsune were both on the poll this year could we get pics of Tomoe and Chizu wrestling those two into submission?

Sasuke vs Jei is endgame stuff though, that would end carnage and destruction. Of course, Stan isn't getting any younger...

>there is no ecidence we were in any way connected with that.

Despite him telling the truth, that's a great response.

bump

Don't worry, if the worst comes to happen, at least we have an actual ending in the form of Senso! It also connects everything to Space Usagi, what a bonus!

I mean, I like Senso and SU, but having that as the only ending to the main series would be... Something.

I think we're all overlooking an interesting idea in the girls meeting Mariko

Any idea when the next pic will be?

Ohoho that would be painful.

Not soon enough

>that would end in carnage and destruction
Nah, seems like on the contrary, having Usagi kill Jei yet again and then getting Sasuke to exorcise the evil spirit would be the best and most appropriate bookend for that whole thing.

I remember the last time Dharmanon did this somebody posited the idea of Gen getting Jei'd and the thread went bonkers.

That one Mariko vote never fails to make me smile.

We got a killer pic out of it.

I like to think that it would end with those two taking each other out.
Sasuke uses so much power he fades away like a Jedi master, and Jei lies on the ground unable to hear the Gods anymore, and fades from the face of that who was possessed.

>That one Mariko vote never fails to make me smile.
It is from Usagi himself.

>it's still neck and neck
damn I guess only a threesome can settle things

I'm really sorry guys, no story time tonight either. my sister suddenly needed a place to crash, and she's where the computer is

Does you sister like Usagi Yojimbo?

Feet?

family is important user

Fuck that. Its not the bushido way. Honor comes before all. What is a family with no honor?

This is the only way to redeem myself. This, or commit Sudoku.

This is proof that the transmission of your dharma lineage is pure.

You chose your clan over some random assholes online as a true samurai should

Looks good to me, Dharmanon.
You're on your way to being the next One.

Conan may have a lot of multiclassing but Usagi has a lot of crossclass skills, not to mention he's the kind of guy who would fuck Conan over, get fucked over by Conan, and then eventually laugh it off over sake (one of the rare occasions Usagi drinks sake) after they team up to kill a wizard.

You've redeemed yourself Dharmanon. Hope your sister is ok.

That might indeed work.

Or Sasuke and Usagi destroy Jei's body but his spirit goes and possesses either one. And if it's Sasuke, everyone dies. There needs to be some sort of exorcising like user mentioned, because Jei is extremely resilient.

Wholesome and funny.

>after they team up to kill a wizard.

Oi.

Heh. I like how for once it's Usagi who confuses Sasuke and not the usual other way round. Pretty cool idea.

It's nice but I feel like Usagi wouldn't refer to Jei by name. Rather he'd call him Bakemono or some such. But that's just a pointless weeb nitpick that doesn't matter.

An Usagi thread which has been alive for over two days. Amazing.

Dharma, you are a miracle worker. Thanks to you I can discuss my favorite comic daily, for two months straight, second year in a row. And the threads are still here when I wake up.

We've had threads up all week

Yeah, but not counting a storytime, how often does this happen? Usagi is almost as ignored on Yea Forums as Hellboy.

I heard in later stories Usagi fights Martian invaders and goes to hell to fight demons and to space to figh evil robots and other crazy shit. Dat true?

Kinda. Sensho is a sort of WHAT IF ending where aliens invade feudal Japan. It's not really canon but it's there.

>Martian Invaders
Not Canon, but Sensor exists.
>Demons in hell
No not really
>Space to fight robots
Space Usagi is Usagi's distant descendant in a SciFi setting, though there was a short story where they team up to fight a robot.

>Learned quite a bit
Hopefully one of those things is the importance of a ruler

>importance of a ruler
Is it to smack smartass anons in the head? I hope it's to smack smartass anons in the head.

It's to measure that asshole's moms gaping cunt after he's done ruining it.

>Jei finally possesses Keiko in Senso
Pretty tragic, especially considering it was just for a quick final cameo

Eh, it's possible she was always some sort of psycho. I'm not sure her weird behaviour is Jei's doing or if he likes her because she is the way she is.

>Jei-Keiko would be called Jeiko
"ko" is a common suffix to a girl's name in Japan. So literally "Jei-Girl"

Perfect!

Hey hey hey we have some news guys.

Stan did a podcast on the new series:

I don't have time to listen myself right now, but enjoy.

Stan also posted a Tomoe on his instagram, so he surely has not forgotten her.

Nah, he is too innocent to lurk here. She is probably coming back for the new series though, that might be why he posted her.

So has there been any news on the cartoon?

Sakai mentions it in the IDW interview, seems like its still in pretty early stages of production.

>muh innocence
Stan "I empty my nine when I see an equine" Sakai draws a furry comic, lads. Do you think those Chris-chan tier degenerates have any restraint or self-awareness? I bet Sakai receives a letter a week from a furry asking him to sign off on their Hebi/Katsuichi anal vore mpreg fanfiction

Nearly 2 decades aint half bad though

Wait. Albedo, Fantagraphics, Mirage, Dark Horse, IDW... That's 5.

Chizucake???!!?!

That's Tomoe you racist. Not all cats look the same.

I don't think anyone counts Albedo. Only a couple of short stories were published there.

Wasn't Albedo practically a fanzine? It's before my time but I had the impression that it was just one guy's self-published proto furry book that came out during the self-publishing boom.

Why did he bounce anyways?

Dark Horse is pretty much dead. They lost Conan, Disney buying Fox means they have Aliens and Predator and can take them away and Hellboy is ending.

Tengu must be really honorable if he agreed to let the guy that cut off his hand go home just because some kid wouldn't get out of the way.

Honestly, he didn't even seem angry about losing his hand -- just that he'd lost earlier. I think the Tengu was having too much fun fighting to really give a shit.

Especially if he thought sparing Usagi would result in Usagi returning to fight him again later.

Gen is a man of opportunity.

I wonder how many ghosts follow Usaji around
he's killed a LOT of people

Jotaro should have been the one to fill her dark soul with LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!

>the ghosts are eating popcorn
>how do they have popcorn?
> ghosts thats how

tell me about the tengu
why does he wear the hook

he's a big yokai

Mariko said so too. Though I guess those are hints for Jotaro.

...

>Though I guess those are hints for Jotaro.
Spoilers for future volumes ahoyhoy, DO NOT READ if you don't want upcoming stories fucked up: Jotaro knows the whole time too, hence his half of this dialogue: . Mariko is just an absolute brainlet and/or crazy BPD bitch so despite telling both of them, she didn't tell either of them that the other knows.

Didn't she also specifically ask they not tell each other.

So when Usagi is being a dick he gets his ass kicked to be taught a humility lesson and is thankful for it but those peasants can harass people all they want. Double standards.

I don't remember off the top of my head but if she did that seems to prove it's "literally insane bitch" and not "brainlet".

They're peasants. Peasants can be as coarse and faggoty as they like since they're nature's garbage. Usagi is obliged to have bearing and comport himself with honor since he's samurai. Double standards are only when you have different standards for people you admit are nominally the same.

Is Dharma taking a break ?

Shadows die twice.
Rabbits die never.

>Daimyo Tobu! You are now in the power of Stardust!
>You will spend the rest of eternity as a tree to ruminate your crimes!

Usagi doesn't seem to think so, so he has double standards.

Did Katsuichi cut off the Tengu's left hand? Why didn't he see that the Tengu only had one hand?

He's being a cocky bastard.
He's playing coy so usagi doesn't notice he was pretty sure he could win again and was basically risking his life for no reason, just to teach him a lesson.

Dharma is dead. Anarchy reigns!

That's some bad reading comprehension there, my bro. Yes, the implication is that Katsuichi cut off the tengu's hand when they fought long ago, and the tengu wants to cut off Usagi's hand as revenge (Usagi being Katsuichi's pupil). Katsuichi totally saw (and knew) the tengu was one-handed, he just pretends not to notice.
