So either Reimu crushes them with an unconscious ultra-powered Miko Smash, Alice does some thingamajigger and saves the day, Reimu is disqualified for ripping Nitori into pieces on the ring or Remilia pulls a friendship stunt and ends the match.
I think at this point there's no shame in admitting that, after a mere two pages of not being able to read the dialog, I have no idea what the hell is going on anymore.
Small bit of blood spotted in the first panel, near Reimu's right leg. I guess that's from the previous strip's last panel. Question is: Will it hit Remilia?
Alice will just do this to save Nitori post #638039
Or maybe she will do a point blank Artful Sacrifice on Reimu and then have herself get beaten up by Reimu on the ground and then the Goddess of Makai will reign down with sweet vengence
ja I didn't expect this battle to get this good so i guess we are near the final damn that nitori was like a ping pong ball, she sure showed a lot of courage too bad that it seems that brain less angered Reimu is about to execute her, hope that Alice can once again move her or Patchy to help the little kappa avoid that final blow but if is truly over they really put a good fight.
Hopefully, that blood reached Remilia or she'll have recovered enough to grab and calm down Reimu.
Still, I think it's pretty much over. Reimu never took as much punishment as Remilia, Marisa and Nitori did and the last member of Marisa's team who could still move is now pretty much running on empty, if she isn't out of steam as of now.

fix'd, etc.

when you said Guile, I was briefly in fear that someone else would've noticed that they still have the Handcuffs, err.. Hope on their side.
This match has yet to show the full effects (or most of them) of Reimu's brain shaking kicking in.. so far she's lost most of her self-control, and seems about to lose consciousness. This would be a funny setting for a Reimu+Marisa Double K.O., should it happen.
edit: thinking about it, Reimu has been spamming her powers for a while. Maybe the desired result from the "brain damage" tactics were, for some reason they thought they could deal with or withstand, to make Reimu exhaust herself like Remilia, or to make her barrier not so useful, like how Marisa spent her remaining powers on a weakened Remilia.
Interesting tidbit: Reimu's final spellcard in Immaterial and Missing Power, Flying Mysterious Shrine Maiden, is described by Marisa in The Grimoire of Marisa as "A desperation spell card Reimu pulls out from an unconscious state."
What we may be about to see is her wrestling version of that.

I dont know if it has been pointed out before, but Alice seems pretty KOed in first pannel.
You realize if the other team wins, it's STILL an asspull win, right? No matter which team wins, it's an asspull. Neither team deserves the win at this point, one will get it, and it'll be an asspull. Both Reimu and Marisa are showing major plot armor here. Marisa ought to've gone down long time ago.

Hm, either Patchouli somehow wakes up and try to interfere with Reimu's attack, Alice uses herb puppeteering ability to help Nitori (or Patchouli, or try to stop Reimu) or Marisa attacks directly despite her current condition.
Whatever it is, my gut feeling states that Reimu connecting with her attack is unlikely.

That or Alice is gonna take control of Reimu and cause her to hurt herself.
I'm kinda disappointed in how much Alice is downplayed in this series. She's not the strongest, but we've seen from swr that she's not completely helpless. Plus she's supposed to have among the highest dexterity among the youkai. I would have liked to see her do some 'float like a butterfly, sting like a bee' stuffs.
However, Reimu remains calm!...and is ready to intercept Nitori!It is a somersault that ignores physics!Episode 770: From an Impossible AngleFrom the Artist's Pixiv page.The fallen Nitori is unable to dodge it!This is bad!
She's out of control!
- MarisaShe seems to be shaken up from that...She has withstood it!She is raising her hand!Precise ControlShe has suddenly turned in mid-air!...but will it be the same like the first round!?She has dodged the blood...It is a cross-counter!So you've got careless with a straightforward attack!
