GetBackers Chapter 70 Discussion

                        ----------------------------------------

                        Well I guess that's why I didn't remember Ban's involvement, he didn't entirely contribute a ton after that one save. Himiko handled herself pretty well with her secret poison, she wasn't able to beat him, though she at least drove him off (and I guess Ban helped too). This kinda alleviates my issue with the arc thus far since it did provide her a cool moment, and without finishing Kagami, it kinda stops the acceleration perfume from feeling so lame. Even though it was established earlier in the arc, it would be lame if we learned it's power at the same time she uses it to secure a win, it just isn't as narratively satisfying. So since the battle didn't end in total defeat, it doesn't feel like they just seeded a win button for her match her.
