Suika looks a little bit mad there, Remilia probably did berate Sakuya a little but we won't know for sure until its translated.
And from what's going on from what I see is that either the next match will start now or they are just going to say a few words before going back inside for the intermission.
At least Sakuya and Suika are present for the after match. Our beloved underdogs have just seem to have vanished out of nowhere and they're the winners of the match -.-

Tenshi is probably still in the ring and Okuu is just laying in the hallway after Suika knocked her out, as I said before I REALLY hope Tenshi does compliment and comfort Sakuya to be a good sport.

That's what I was hoping for, I figured since both teams really went all out, neither has the energy to move yet. at least it doesn't look like anyone has actually moved from their spots since the match has ended. Not sure though.

There are 3 scenarios I can see happening regarding that.
Either Tenshi does compliment and comfort Sakuya for the match to be a good sport, or she relishes in her victory then rubs it in Sakuya's face and berates her, OR Tenshi just relishes in her victory and doesn't even say anything at all.
Due to her arrogant and selfish personality the last 2 choices are the more likely and if she does she will be a major heel.

Me too, it's a lot like how I love Okuu and Tenshi's pre-match outfits a bit more than their actual ones.

Tenshi has been prideful in this comic but I've yet to see her rub her skills into people so I don't see where you're getting this arrogance from. Or would you describe Cirno as arrogant because she boasts a lot too?
I also have yet to see her act selfishly in the comic either. If we're talking in canon though then Tenshi is as selfish as Remilia (Block out the sun so I can move around freely), or Kanako (Eliminate this competing shrine), or... most of the characters in Touhou.

Looks sorta like a White Mage's robe...
And I think it's the whole "can't have too many characters on-screen" thing that plagued matches in the past.
Pretty much all the angles have where Tenshi was last seen (barely getting her head off the mat) is just out of frame, or blocked by some body in the foreground.
Tenshi has issues with Kaguya. Not sure about the others.

She showed a bit of arrogance throughout the comic such as before her match with Lost Servants and like before with what I was talking about with Sakuya's depression it was only a GUESS.

Kanako wasn't the one who planned that, it was Sanae, and there is an official speculation in the series that suggests that the incident of EoSD was staged by Remilia and that she lost on purpose for Sakuya and while there is nothing to prove this there is nothing to disprove it either.
Tenshi even joining the tournament was an act of selfishness just as much as her causing the Scarlet Weather Rhapsody incident for her own amusement since Yukari didn't send her an invite because she despises Tenshi for what she did and building in a keystone in the Hakurei Shine when she rebuilt it and she just joined in as Okuu's partner. Kanako and Yuyuko even denied them when Satori was demanding them to let Okuu and Tenshi in the competition, Yuyuko even said that Tenshi was unpopular and Satori and her pets picked a fight with her and Kanako. The only reason HS was let in in the first place was because Hijiri (who was already originally decided to be part of the reserve team) listened to Koishi and requested that HS be both in the competition AND their opponents or else she would drop from the tournament (which Kananko actually staged) to which Yuyuko and Yukari had no choice but to accept.
This stories Tenshi doesn't seem arrogant as much as childish. She's not honest with how she feels or what she wants but is still a good person at heart kinda thing.
I don't think anything she's done so far has had any ill intent involved. It doesn't help most of her appearances are used for one-shot gags that could be interpreted as her being arrogant and/or selfish.

Suika didn't knock Okuu out... they flew into a wall.
I'm not sure we're going to get to see much interaction between the two teams now, because one of the teams is currently split up. If Tenshi hasn't left the ring to check on Okuu already, she will probably do so shortly... and then the two teams will be away from each other. There might be something eventually backstage, but, again, HS isn't allowed full treatment and LS now is, so they'll probably not be in the same areas.

How bout before the match with Lost Servants, and keep in mind what arrogance is, arrogance: an attitude of superiority manifested in an overbearing manner or in presumptuous claims or assumptions,
And what pride is, pride: a reasonable or justifiable sense of one's worth or importance.

I... fail to see why you recounted all that. How is all of that selfish? Wishing to participate in something that someone unfairly prevented you from joining isn't selfishness and Tenshi never asked for anyone's help in getting into the tournament, the whole time she was oblivious to the fact that she wasn't invited and it was thanks to her friendship with Okuu that the Underground decided to get her in the tournament.
CybeastGregarX said: It was "The Immortals". Why whoever translated this put it as undead I will not understand.
Now, now. No need to get all uppity. Just a small confusion, no harm, no foul. As always I'm just happy and grateful for the contributions our moonspeakers give us by translating such treasures as this.
The 'She's not feeling too well.' from Suika's dialogue should've been 'That's not funny', referring to the way Remilia responds. Apparently Remilia thinks that they did all this only to fight her. So even if she is complimenting Sakuya, I don't think she's gonna be so happy about it since she has found another reason in this match. I sure hope Tenshi is going to say something to Remilia and Kaguya and then give some compliments to Sakuya and Suika before rushing to Okuu.
Okuu isn't there. Right now the focus seems to be on the losers and segueing into the next match. The winners have a lot more flexibility and can be put off for a bit, because they still have another match to fight this round.
ithekro said: HS will be up against the Miko with the unbreakible morale (Erin tried...not possible to break)...Sanae.
If it will be HS' win against Moriya, I have the feeling that it won't be through Sanae's loss. My gut tells me that the decision would lie on Suwako's performance.
And yeah, Kilgamayan. I'd say that disrespectful might be the word I'm looking for. Like Suika said, they didn't give their all just for vengeance. It's one reason, yes, but they put everything on the line because their opponents did the same thing. Unfortunately, how Remi said those words makes it look like she thinks that it's all about her.
Perhaps it might not what she wants to convey, but it she did step into that ring without even giving a chance for HS or LS to get out.
aListers said: So 1 out of all the matches so far(I've lost count of them) have been victory for the team I supported. Hopefully the immortals will make that 2.
Even though I'm not a fan of them, it's refreshing to hear someone support the Immortals.
I now acknowledge how you guys are.Episode 974: Delicate differences in enthusiasm.From the Artist's Pixiv page....didn't fight just so we can have our vengeance on you guys.What's with that attitude saying something like that?Quite the formidable enemies you guys are!!That's not funny at all.We...That's right.Quickly Seizing The OpportunitySeems like this vengeance thing is quite attractive....saying that line a bit too early?This time it's Kaguya!!The Immortal Combination enters the ring, too!!The tension in the ring is heating up!!!Besides, aren't you guys...
