Sangokushi v30 (last updated Aug 19)

I hate how the table of contents page throws out spoilers.
There's a humorous little story about the archery competition here where EVERYBODY gets bulls-eyes and Xu Chu and Xu Huang start beating the crap out of each other that was sadly omitted. It is kind of out place so I understand why. Plus, Xu Huang hasn't even made his official appearance in the manga yet.
It's a little comical how they all still go to great lengths in respecting imperial authority when they actually know it's Cao Cao's authority, not the emperor's.
Lol at Sun Yu getting a small introduction when he's one of the most insignificant characters in the story. But in any case, R.I.P. I'll always remember your last words. It's a shame it becomes a little wordy in English.
I really, really, really wish there was some place to get these pages that were originally in colour.
Oh Pang Tong. What a character.
Enter Ma Chao. I love his little helmet.

  1. Way to start a day! Thanks a lot for the chapter!

    Sad how Wei Yan wasn't given a grander depiction. I mean, he was one of the ablest Shu general, capable of actually leading battles and cooking up good, if not great, strategies.

    1. The Battle of the Red Cliffs ended back in volume 26, so it's been a while.

  4. So, how much I lose if I have seen the anime and start reading from volume 26?

    1. A lot in regards to the whole experience since the anime was fairly low budget stuff and they skipped things here and there.

  6. Poor zhou yu, constantly made to look foolish. i think kongmin is way too perfect a character. Its like he's playing a game with god mode on.

  7. Hox you always slay me with ye olde English translations. Zhou Yu's last words reminded me of the fake king's letter from "Insult" in Vinland Saga. Great stuff..

  10. This may not be the correct time to ask but, Hox, what fonts do you use in Oyasumi Punpun?
