Sorry, no raw out, except in stores. And, well, I got no scanner, so all I can do is tell you what happens. Hah!
(SPOILERS)
TITLE: A Block semifinal
Starts off with lots of ships out in space listening to a Jovian (I think) broadcast, which, interestingly enough, is written in barcodes.
Anyways, the seed team is from Jupiter, so everyone in the Jovian empire (that's a lot of people) is watching. They're going up against the Angels, which is effectively just Sechs at this point, since Alita is MIA and Elf/Zwolf are being useless ponces.
A Jovian spectator shows up in the announcer box, with a slightly more humanoid body, although his head is still the weird block thing. He also has a blocky cat sitting on his head. I think his name is something like Chihonof 727.
Hopper is still on fire. You'd think someone would put him out.
Anyway, the Jovian opponent is this 50-meter-wide, 500-ton ball, called Wohmen 609, or Ubernote. It unfolds a bit, revealing different weapons and appendages.
It starts by launching some nanopolymer blocks at Sechs -- the same thing that Trinidad caught all of them in when they first came to Ketheres.
Anyways, Sechs dodges hundreds of the nanopolymer blocks, and they end up surrounding him by making a huge pyramid out of the blocks.
Ubernote launches a ton of missles at Sechs, who uses his expand punch to get out before they hit. While Sechs is still flying through the air, Ubernote launches more missles at him...
...at which point, Sechs starts bouncing between them in midair, alternately cutting them apart and riding them like a surfboard.
Sechs redirects a ton of the missles at Ubernote, which seems to take on a more jelly-like consistency, and grow to a size of 100 meters. I think the Jovian guy is very proud of this.
Ubernote, now roughly 1/3rd the size of the entire arena, begins spinning around incredibly fast, tossing around everything in the arena like a hurricane. The Jovian dude refers to this move as the "Jupiter Mixer."
The last two pages show Zazie infiltrating some other ship, labeled OLYMPUS EXPRESS C-078 (okay, technically it's olympos, but he meant to write olympus) while everyone's distracted. I think what she says on the last page is, "Well then, maybe now's a good time to meet."
