Onomatopoeic or mimetic word

Onomatopoeic or mimetic word

Onomatopoeic or mimetic word


From Chinese “màn màn de”

esp. 探す for something desired and 捜す for something lost

Colloquialism
Ennoshita says it in a later panel on this page

gave up on the big block of text from the question but maybe i'll come back after read aloud lol

from Nishinoya's shirt: 三点倒立; maybe something like "3 points define a plane [math.]" as in "3 points give you a stable standi

span. exclamation (vivir=to live; viva [imperative])


I think Nishinoya means the white cloth that's wrapped around the upper body
3 points give you a stable standing"
