20th Century Boys Chapter 70 Discussion

gg bois T_T he did his best :(

seems like the young officer, kanna, and this girl might be the new trio?? RIP Kenji... I'm curious if that police officer is the one who killed Kenji, with the way it showed him at the end

THIS IS AN MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER.

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

                ;_;

so what I understood from the old mans talk was that Kenji was really close but in the end the chance slipped away.............

kenji lost huh and friend possibly had all 10 frames perfected



and wow, Urasawa seems to have a habit of drawing panty shots

good game Kenji :(

Oh, so back when Kanna noticed someone's ramen at Kenji's monument, it was probably God's one. I wonder why his monument even exists though, isn't he considered a terrorist? Why would there be a monument praising him? Is it because Friend once called him a "prophet" (back at the concert)?



Also, I found it funny that the Inoue guy in the class was doing a project on Musashi. Nice inside joke for a mangaka, because Takehiko Inoue really did a manga on Musashi

What I took away from it was that he had the chance to succeed, but probably a friend / friends lives were in danger, so he tried to do both, but in the end failed at both and died ... or something like that, basically he bit off more than he could chew.

That business suit, huh. So God really is using his premonition powers to win at stock market. I did not expect such immodest behavior from him. And from God's recollection of the events, it appears Kenji was right about everything he does not turning out the right way.

Obviously the monument isn't for Kenji, but rather for the victims of those events. It's written right there - "Friend peace memorial".

that analogy sums up the story that never happened

+ The Egawa kid doing the Russo-japanese war

Kowzum I presume will anyways I don't see how that girl adds to the story other than the old man revealing the bowling game..

That's the way I understood it as well.. T_T



Koizumi seems like a fun, new character!
