I am sufficiently surprised (PoT CHAPTER 354 SPOILERS)

Well, I came back from Cape Cod today, and I immediately grabbed Prince of Tennis chapter 354 from MangaHelpers. Instead of a download link, it linked to the scanlator's website, which said that there was a huge surprise in the chapter...
...and after reading the chapter, I am sufficiently surprised. By both the main surprise of the chapter, and Rikkai's choice for Doubles 2...


Lolz, remember the rant I made a week and a half ago or so? This one?
Well, in it, I was speculating about the doubles pairs for Rikkaidai...
"so maybe they'll switch the pairs around and we'll get Yagyuu/Niou vs Inui/Kaidou and Jackal/Marui vs Ooishi/Eiji, or maybe Konomi will come up with a totally new doubles pair like Yanagi/Kirihara and totally surprise us, that'd actually be pretty fun"


Well guess what?
lol manga panel

Bwahahaha, yayyyyyy I totally called the Yanagi/Kirihara thing~
Well, that leaves Niou, Yagyuu, Marui, Jackal, and Yukimura for the rest of the matches. Yukimura's obviously singles one. I bet Marui and Jackal are doubles 1, it really doesn't seem to me like either would play singles, though then again, Konomi could surprise us...
I dunno who'll play singles 2. Yagyuu? I think he played singles in Rikkai's semifinal match, but I don't quite remember...well, we'll see now, won't we?


And then the main surprise of the chapter.
Ryoma's uber random amnesia. I think I speak for many of us when I say this:
wtffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
Uber random plot twist? Well, at least it kinda explains why Ryoma was missing? xD
I really don't know how to react to that...just wtf, really
oh, and on that page where he's smiling, his smile looks like Fuji. xD

Well, guess we just have to hope that his memory returns by singles 1 so he can sufficiently pwn Yukimura, because there's no way the Nationals is ending before Ryoma even plays~
