Welcome to your latest chapter of Strike it Rich. Commencing Chapter 30 dump
Hajime
>>269047523The sex was so good she switched sides.
>>269047838This page is hilarious after this tourney because they just steamrolled Slaughter Colosseum, who are supposed to be a big shot when it comes to the women division.
>>269047510Just checked the first couple arcs. This was surprisingly fun.
>>269047523Shitposting and hornyposting aside, it really does look like they just finished having sex
>>269047925>>269048001>Stars on her face and clothes, but not on her eyesPoser!
All I want to know is why the last three fights were so short. The finale was TWO chapters and literally 50% flashbacks and explaining the jobber's gimmick and backstory, so we only get ONE chapter of fighting.Does Sandro suddenly fucking hate choreographing fights for big people or what? He didn't hesitate this much when he was doing Waka vs Julius or Toa vs Julius.
>>269048103YEAH BABY!!!This is the vagueposting I came for!
>>269047751When did Riku become so cute?
>>269048001Cute little psycho.
Hana in the wrong place at the wrong time. Looks like we'll be getting the "other children" soon enough and Nozomi going on about getting "military strength".See ya next time. Let's "reach for the stars"
>>269048149Bros... They're on the same page...
>>269048183Which one?
>>269048228All of them
Bonus page
>>269047888>>269047925>Hina literally blurts out her name>??? in the name boxSandro...
You've got it all wrong
>>269048260Thank you for dumping! Really cute jobbers.
>>269048217Thanks for the dumb broFeels kinda short but cute girls makes it worth.
>>269048280To be fair ambiguously named characters aren't exactly new for Sando
>>269048280Plot twist : It's an imposted passing for Hina!!
>>269047510https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4sdZN7blfE
>>269048217isn't this just a rehash of Kiryu making Ohma his 'god'?
So rei is hinas setsuna.
>>269047621>>269047669Wow this guy sure is cool I sure would love to see him starring in the main series Kengan Omega in what's supposed to be a very important anti-Worm group that we could call the "Anti-Worm Alliance" with a bunch of other organisations that would really call back to Kengan's roots as a manga that intertwined its battles with business instead of watching Shen drink beer and tell a bit character named Koga to fetch more beer for him.
>>269048260Thanks for dumping.
>>269048451It's similar, but this time i guess anyone can be a god, even you
>>269048217Thx mate. Phenomenal chapter!Let loose the vagueposting, the PLOT, the age old secret organizations, the mysterious characters, the jobbing, the asspulls, the easily waved away plot threads, the seeker mindset!Omega seething is old news. Now, it's the age of SiR seething!
>>269048103Wait..."the stars"....are they the "highest height"?
>>269047523So is she just scarred now?
>>269047795>that was a stellar climaxMeh, you could switch around the first and last matches and nothing would change, they have around the same level of intensity. I'd actually argue Iori's match had a little more.
>>269047710I'm predicting the payoff for this would be in another two and a half years with Karen saying she found nothing about her.Anyone else has a different prediction?
You think Rei's power compares to Hina? I was thinking she'd be a rival figure when she showed up.
>>269048810>two and a half yearsIs "optimism" a "principle"?
>>269048852>I was thinking she'd be a rival figure when she showed up.In the Yumigahama sense, or the "one of the Supernovas that orbit Koga" sense?
>>269048103Sorry Rei But "Woody" has already "Arrived".
>>269048521Each Man is Free, Each Man is a God.
>>269048717They're too high to be the heighest, do understand.
>>269048916I was thinking more the Setsuna kind.
Is "Evil" "on the move"?
>>269049021Better hope this series doesn't get a Ryuki then.
If Yumigahama played Street Fighter III: Third Strike, would he be a Twelve main?
>>269048540>Now, it's the age of SiR seething!SiR will take over Kengan popularity.
>>269047523In hindsight we shouldn't have expected anything out of the three baddies, even just going off of Hayami's coup where he gets stopped with little issue. Yet we DID. We went against everything that we learnt in Kengan Omega and EXPECTED things out of Sandro's ANTAGONISTS. People's expectations were actually raised throughout this entire arc. Well played Sandro.
>>269049223Wrong image.
>>269047579Does this mean he will go working with the one and only fisherman himself
>Sara will probably join because of Iori>Yuu can join but realistically has no reason to>Karen will probably not join since she'll be busy with searching about info on Hina>Iori can recruit prisoners because her bosses allowed her to>This Rei chick>Since Inoue got caught they can ask for fighters from SCOn the one hand, Nozomi's military strength is guaranteed so it won't look sudden if new characters join from a story perspective. On the other hand, this could lead to character bloat like in Omega and cause even more problems to spill here. Like having the fights be in tournament format only.>>269049138That day will come after the anime.
>>269048280Rei is actually referring to her numbering as one of the "Children." You rike?
I've seen a lot of gripes about Karla never getting a proper on-screen fight with a proper conclusion in Kengan, but will Isshou Senkin be the manga that actually has some intergender fights?
This chapter is lacking in Yuzuha
>>269049556Mark my words Karla will fight in SiR. Her rival will be Hina when they meet again.
>>269049812>>269049556Please no. I don't want any K*re shit in SiR
>>269049975What if Karla instantly job instead?
>>269048217Oh stupid plot shit that Sandro can't handle is rearing its ugly head again.
>>269049420What's stopping Sandro from having more fights be stuff outside of a tournament or Purgatory match context? Xia Ji's scuffle with Akoya and Ryuki were weirdly intense and the Justicevengers as a concept show Sandro is willing to do them, but he keeps insisting on filler matches with returning characters when he could have just shown the Death Dealers doing their thing. Senor Omar was left as a cliffhanger for months out-of-universe.
>>269049702Be happy with what you got.
>>269048103Would the Kure's try to breed Hina?
>>269050020It's gonna backfire. He's gonna make Karla femRaian and will poison this manga as well.
>>269048103Well considering workshit in Omega I'm guessing they failed.
>>269050140He keeps adding unnecessary parts to a simple framework.Sandro should know at this point that he fucking SUCKS at writing these kinds of plots and it won't change anything relevant if the main character is actually in on it from the start.>>269050271We know Isshou Senkin takes place before Omega so it's highly likely a given, the tension is already weakened with this piece of information. Shouldn't have made Omega so high-stakes, or at least moved it a little up the timeline.
I'll find a use for this someday.
>>269047795>>269047838Kengan female division soon.
Re-reading Rei's talk I guess the star children are in a battle royale situation, with the last left alive being chosen as god. Whatever that means.>>269050174Tournaments work better as a hook. Even if they suck, you could derive more entertainment from them than a shitty fight.
>>269047523Corrective rape.
>>269048149>we might get some kind of Rei/Hina/Nozomi pseudo love triangle where Rei gets absolutely buttblasted at Hina being touchy with Nozomi and trying to beat the shit outta her
it's Isshou Senkin, don't call it SiR it just doesnt sound right
>>269047669Doting spoiling uncle.
What if this goes the Otokojuku route and every arc is a tournament that involves all of the previous enemies coming back and fighting for the team? Sara, Karen and Hazuki will all join Valkyria and all win their next fights.
>>269048149Cute little crazies
>>269047523This has the energy of an ntr doujin.
Feels like Hina still has some cult brainwashing in her being activated from catchphrases and whatnot, as they often do.Kinda sad that our cute lil' psycho couldn't be just that.
>>269048217Aw man, this secret organization stuff is so less interesting than the underground fight club stuff.
>>269047510I wonder which girl will get Vol 3 cover
>>269047963Didn't she kill him?
>>269047838Christ, Yuzuha is so goddamn sex.
>>269047946They still only have 6 good fighters and 2 of them aren't even actual fighters, just staff members who are good at fighting. They can't depend on just 6 people forever.
I want Rei to utterly destroy one of our girls
>>269047523Wow Karen was actually tamed
>>269053067If KA management taught me anything, is that you can recycle the same fighters for your skirmishes as long as they are the strongest ones. So they're going to be fine.
>>269047579I like his eye in the right panel
>>269047751Based Yuzuha
>>269047523>the villain straight-up gave up and changed sidesThat's it. Sandrobitch is now officially a CareBear faggot who cannot stomach to write anything but the most heckin wholesome buddy-buddy kindergarten dynamics.
>>269047838Perky Yuzuhas
>>269048121>Does Sandro suddenly fucking hate choreographing fightsYes. If he could get away with it there'd be no more fights.
>>269052688No that was Hanafusa, Hina just metaphorically puppeted or brainwashed him.
>>269048217It's the "Tiger's Vessel" all over again. At least this finally put a nail through the throat of every fucking faggot who doubted SiR would inevitably go the same way as Omega.
>>269048149Cute Star Gu Ritual survivors>>269048217Poor Hana
>>269048260They will return…
>>269051377>What if this goes the Otokojuku route and every arc is a tournament that involves all of the previous enemies coming back and fighting for the team?Wow mate, you just destroyed all interest I had in reading it. I fucking hate that dumb shit.
>>269048149>>269048217"Mercury" is in "retrograde""I'm" the only "starchild" we need.
>>269048217Ah yes worm-lite shit. And just like the worms we know they will fail. Expect Hina to betray them.
>>269050444Yumibros...
>>269047838Possible hint that Kengan or Purgatory might eventually start a women's division. Seems more likely that Purgatory would, because they focus more on entertainment instead of settling business deals, and they don't allow killing.
>>269047523Lesbian revenge rape is powerful....
>>269050615>I guess the star children are in a battle royale situationDon't you guys get it yet?It's all "Gu Ritual".....
>>269048217Could Lolong take her?
>>269054696Only current Lolong can who has seen higher heights, but not in Shen, in Fu.
>>269048217Loli star child soon
>>269054441Haven't they not started a women's division for two fucking years? I swear there was something explicitly saying there was none.Also if anything Purgatory is the best suited to have a women's division due to the degree of safety, Kengan having a women's division makes absolutely no sense due to the structure of it being used to close deals (at least on paper fuck you sandro)
>mystery villains and vague posting about conspiraciesfinally a return to form. now this is the yabako sandrovich I know and tolerate.
>>269054441That would be BS.Not only is there no hint to it, but a new division would have been brought up when the worm infilitration was a thing during KvP. It would have been the perfect opportunity for them to plant operatives in it.If Sandro actually wants to bring competition then he can bring foreign promotions to compete. Perhaps something from America since he mentioned how strong their martial arts were a few weeks ago. It will also make sense with the "foreigners trying to get into Japan's economy after Metsudo retired" narrative that was present at the start of Omega.
Rei WILL job.
>>269055903She's on the job
>>269055903No way, she's equal to Hina at least
>>269056259And we thought Tiger Niko was equal to Ohma.
>>269052603Most probably Riko. >>269054134Otokojuku takes it to the next level.>Fat sadistic jobber loses after a prolonged fight but is spared as they're fighting above super dissolving acid>The enemy on his side that hasn't fought yet suddenly cuts the wires he was hanging on (saved by the guy he lost to) and has him fall into the acid that dissolves people into skeletons in seconds>Next arc starts>He's alive and it's completely unexplained>Dies after his first fight back because he just couldn't accept that Otokojuku (the school) was insulted by the enemy so he refused to surrender>Never comes back>Meanwhile the guy who had him fall in acid prior is also back and utters the line "I don't like to kill needlessly"In all fairness he was being a huge fucking prick anyway so maybe he thought it wasn't needless to get rid of a wretch at the time. You shouldn't think too hard about it, Otokojuku is pure bullshido the series and is very honest about it.
>>269056464Lmao
I really hope Riku gets another fight as much as people love her sister. Her carnage rush is really cool and I like her idea behind grit. She'd serve as a great middle ground between a lot of them.
>>269053911This kinda of shit makes whatever Hina is all about really low level. Feels if things get out of hand Kengan Association can take care of it in minutes.
Fuck it ,I ship it I fuck with the Gyaru oh x Jimiko dynamic
Final thoughts on these retards?
>>269048149>>269048217I'm looking forward to Sandro's collab work with Soul Eater/Fire Force's Mangaka.
>>269056730I actually kind of prefer that, I like how SIR feels like a gaiden side story and as another anon mentioned in the Kengan thread about the start of Omega, Sandro's "low level" fights are sometimes some of his best lately because he doesn't feel the need to be hyperbolic. >>269056464I read a couple arcs of Otokojuku and I'm not surprised that it turns into that. People rag on modern manga a lot but there's a lot of old stuff which was just completely incoherent from chapter to chapter and it gets a pass.
>>269050373He locked himself into it because it's the premise essentially (that Hina has chemical weapons and they want to know about them and she'll tell them if they keep giving her exciting fights). The issue is that they've shown too much too soon. The lady who overheard her had literally just asked someone to investigate, two seconds later she's just overheard super important stuff. It's ridiculous. He genuinely doesn't know how to do a non-tournament plot.
>>269056999As Kengan jobbers go not bad but kind of forgettable. I've already forgotten what Karen's speciality was. Sandro started out much stronger with the first tournament participants.
>>269056999Sara: Fun fight and personality that I hope sticks around.Karen: Kinda meh but is just a side character.Yuu: Very fun unga bunga hulk that I wanna see more of in the future, preferably just hanging out with the sisters.All in all I really enjoyed them despite knowing how the fights would end up.
>>269047795>"A woman's divisio can turn a profit" Sounds like a metacomentary about the success of the manga and by how many people are speculating about Kengan's associations adding a women's division.
>>269050864I shall call it SaaR.
>>269047838 Is she planning on using Hina's WMD on gangsters? Maybe she will just use them to threaten them.
>>269048121 I am fine with short fights as long as they are intense. My favourite part of this arc was the police woman biting her oppponent's throat.
>>269053631I hate Sandro. MAKE YOUR VILLAINS WIN FOR ONCE GOOD FUCKING LORD
>>269058396 Even if they can't win a normal 1v1, add more important things to the; introduce civilians that can be harmed or kidnapped or use the companies to mold the culture in their favour.
>>269054441>Purgatory butting into the story againFUCK GOAT
I am so genuinely pissed off with how this story is ALREADY going in the direction of Wormshit
>>269058524 I hope he gets a lot of protagonism if he even appears. We could see the better side of the character given SiR stor focuses more on the buisness plays than Kengan.
>More villain infightingSANDRO. PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SPARE THE COOL NEW LADY. I CAN'T LET THE STAR CULT LOSE THEIR THREAT FACTOR THIS EARLY ON HOLY SHIT
>>269048217Someone ought to tell Sandro nobody likes these schizoid vagueposting side plots already. We were doing so good up until this
>>269056730I mean, KA are Sandro's avengers. They can do impossible feats such as locating every hidden worm in every criminal organization around the world. Even if what they are facing is impossible to defeat they'll still overcome it.You have to remember that Dr. Miracle isn't KA, but government. So he was doing the government work when he went after the cult. But even after killing them the threat of the bio weapons is still a thing.One good thing about this chapter is that it showed that what he did actually had an effect and that Hina isn't an unstoppable master mind. She still poses a threat to the government, but they aren't hopeless against her. Though, it does question whether or not she'll follow through with her promise to Nozomi.
>>269048217Keep the wormshit to Omega Sandro. Pls. Just kill this bitch off next chapter.
>>269058780No, what really pisses me off is Sandro's utter refusal to give them a threat factor.He needs an editor
>>269058826No. That makes the problem worse because it means the villain isn't a threat.Worm was cool when they were actually threatening before Sandro went insane
>>269058779Hina is actually happy to see Rei for one so I don't think we'll see the other star kids get taken out in one punch. >>269058873While you're right that killing her off immediately would fucking suck. Rei doesn't appear to actually be a threat for now, just a potential future rival. Right now her and Hina are on good terms.
>>269058833I really can't imagine imagine liking any of the worm, setsuna, or hayami stuff in asura or omega much more if they were a threat. The tournament stuff is always just more fun and engaging to read.
>>269048451Except Hina is into it and that's hot.
>Shen Wulong was the OG Star Child. >The Star Cult lady is the one who taught him Huisheng and told him to wait until mankind had destructive enough weapons
It pleases me to see seethe over vagueposting once again. There hasn't been enough of it since the Champions Tournament started.

You already saw him push an Ohma stronger than the one in the KAT and he couldn't try his pre-initiative schtick. He also thrashed Toa, who is bigger than fucking Julius. >Finger measuringSomething that is actually done IRL as a practice. Stop posting garbage.

>>269061153Well, I'm not there, so I can't tell how far it is.But seriously, why do you need to mathematically tell how far someone is in a fistfight. I'm pretty sure you can accurately judge how far they are with just your eyes
>>269061238Japanese highschools
>>269061287Do you not at least think about WHY people do it? https://blog.outdoorherbivore.com/wilderness/estimating-distance-with-your-thumb/
I am still unsure to this day
>>269061382They do it because they need to MATHMATICALLY tell exact distance.But why would you even need to do that when you can probably tell>Okay I need to move to his side and then move forwardIn an instant with your eyes in a fistfight. What Lolong's doing makes it look like he's thinking>Okay, I need to adjust my foot by 1 mm and then wait until he moves exactly 10 cm at a 47.36 degree angle on my right, coming towards me

Sex with Riku
>>269047523i want hana to mind break me
>>269062782anon...she'd make you cum with just the cattle prodshe'd stick it in your ass until you did
>>269056999Fine for jobbers since nobody actually expected them to do anything (as opposed to Purgatory or the worm). I swear Sandro was the one who forced MAAM to give Sara that stupid as fuck cumming cuhrayzy face even though her karate flashback one was fine
>>269047751good job Yuzuha, Riko will be expecting a banana treat now
>>269061031Except Lolong, like any top level fighter, should be able to do this perfectly fine with just his eyes. The finger trick is pointless at the level of skill these fighters are supposed to be at. You don't see Kuroki doing that shit because he can measure distance perfectly fine with his eyes alone and time his attacks accordingly.
>>269047523>>269047621Do tasers leave nasty scars like that on her neck?
>>269063055If it transmits through contact prongs, it can. If it's a jolt between them, no.
>>269048217Judging from the conversation, she's joining Valkyria right?
>>269058824Isn't Hina brainwashing his new step dad too? Whats exactly stopping the government from probing her ass off.
>>269062372>Made Riko too strong>Gives her a Julius moment with Rei as AgitoWe have to re-establish martial arts superiority somehow, I guess.>>269063909She isn't brainwashing anyone right now.
>>269056464While I admit I only watched the anime (+ ova), my biggest gripe with Otokojuku was characters dying, having the tension and impact that follows, all the sequential buildup to a climax, then "oh they're actually not dead look at them there".I get that they are the main cast and all, but the repeated going back on it makes it lose the meaning behind actually killing off your characters. If you're gonna do that, then commit to it
>>269064002I think my biggest problem with Sandro's martial arts writing is that he tends to make martial arts able to overcome ANY level of physicality regardless of skill level.
>>269047751>you earned yourself a BananaIs this a compliment or some sexual joke ?
>>269053911What chapter was this again.
>>269064002She is attending this private school while also living in this rich apartment and sleeping with all the bombs.
>>269064529We don't know where she lives, just that it is spacious enough to hold the chemicals. Getting money is easy since some cult members are still loyal to her.
>>269064615Didn't the cop said she got adopted by a government agent at the same time the investigation was asked to stop?
>>269064342It's just Yuzuha calling Riko an ape but phrasing it as a compliment.
>>269064459101
>>269047751The Strong
>>269064183I can get that. I can sense emotion in the moment but it's generally amazing the way they just ignore death or have "THIS POISON CAN KILL AN ELEPHANT WITH ONE TOUCH" only for them to ignore it. It loops back into being hilarious sometimes honestly. I think the sequel Akatsuki Otokojuku showed evolution on Miyashita's part when it comes to certain story beats.
>>269060667Ramon...
The "Star Children" may as well be considered some kind of super soldier. You saw how Hina flatlined Yuzuha in one punch with that thing that looked similar to Wakatsuki's blast core. They were probably bred to be a certain way. I look forward to more Rei. None of you are wrong that this is reminiscent of Omega though. It is to a bordering on hilarious degree.
>>269065419It is but at least there should be a more limited number of them. It's closer to the Niko's than the Worms I think. Also yes I want to see more Rei too.
>>269065613It may be the inherent appeal of mystery. Rei could be a load of fucking nothing but SiR is still relatively early into its run while Kengan is not.
>>269059485I like the idea of this image, kek
>>269061274Kungfuzuha
>>269065702Yeah she's already primed herself to die whenever so she and I could see Hina coldly use her.
>>269065771From what I can tell Rei is completely up for Hina being number one but if she dies, Rei will take her place
>>269065869So she says... I feel like her allegiance could change at the drop of a hat
>>269048260I hope Sara recovers quick.
And Sandro ruined the star cult idea in record time by introducing infighting. It would've been cooler if it was a bunch of them who checked up on Hina.>We've all done what was asked of us>What about you?>Don't turn out like the failure who traded his purpose for strength
>>269047669
Pitch a martial arts manga>Over the top "Hood" aesthetic with spray paint and crazy clothes>Generally irreverent and extremely crude tone akin to Grezzo Due>Thugs of different gangs are pitted against each other for dominance>Protagonist is a sneakerhead with a ski mask who has anger issues, but trains in kickboxing>Just wants to chill with his sneaker collection but now he's the fighter for a gang
>>269058099The issue is that interspersed flashbacks and info dumps really fuck with intensity. Shuumatsu no Valkyrie still has this problem. As does Tenkaichi. In some sense I'd actually say the problem gets worse when its a short fight that doesn't stretch past two chapters, because with more chapters flashbacks can afford to reveal more stuff about a character that makes them feel like a person, AND we get to see more of the characters actually fighting simply because there's more space for them to do so.It doesn't help that two out of three opponents practically vanish after losing. We don't get to see Sara or Hazuki's thoughts after their fights end. After the tournament we immediately jump to dealing with the minor antagonist. Yet we saw Nezu's thoughts after he got one-shotted by Rei after his fight instead of starting the next round immediately.Gozo vs Waka was only slightly less of a stomp than Rei vs Nezu, but itdidn't cut to a flashback where we see Gozo running laps halfway through Waka creaming him. We were drip-fed info about Gozo instead of having it all dumped on us at once the moment his fight starts. Takayama vs Gunji was even shorter than Waka vs Gozo and it was just the two guys using brutal attacks on one another without stopping to breathe. We see Takayama actually losing his fingers and getting his mask knocked off halfway through his fight to see his scars (a character defining trait from his past fight with Agito), which wouldn't have had the same impact if half of it was the narrator explaining a younger Takayama going to the doctor to get his jaw fixed.
>>269047795So did Hazuki just vanish from the ring like Lolong did? I don't remember seeing her getting carted off by the medics.
>>269066410The anti-Yakuza laws are indeed a spook.
This manga is losing structure again (like Sandrovich's Kengan works, especially Omega). It's falling victim to what the Kengan series lost: reason.>Hina HongouWHAT is her purpose in this manga? What reason does she have, at all?All that's established is "she is someone to be feared" because "she's strong & might have chemical bombs." She's a highschool teenager who clearly "only wants to participate in martial art fights" and is frankly loud & explicit about asking anyone to "strong opponents."But... so WHAT? What is "strong?" WHO would she hurt? Why? And chemical bombs, okay, why does she have them? Is she planning on using them? Where? When? Again, why??? There doesn't seem to be ANY REASON for these traits beyond "characterization." So what? Why teenaged? What goal does she have? Is she working for someone else? We NEVER see her making any sort of progress to whatever endgame she seems to be desiring. We're left thinking, "does she ALREADY HAVE 100% of everything she needs," and, "what possible RISK is involved given how little progress she seems to be making?" It's even been established that when Hina is getting what she wants (a strong enemy) then she's happy, but if she's not then... she's nonplussed? A frustrated or unhappy Hina seems irrelevant, since we've seen that nothing bad happens. We're asked, as the audience, to fear a potential future but we're not given any reasons, any parameters, any circumstances to trigger a negative action, the scale of that negative action, there just isn't any risk!All we have is "Hina is insane and wants to fight strong enemies... OR ELSE!"
>>269047751My little delinquent can't be this cute
>>269064342>Is this a compliment or some sexual joke ?Both.
>>269065173I am having a schizo moment or wasn't there a chapter the doctor went undercover to a hospital to rat some corruption out? Or was it another manga.
>>269066820>It's falling victim to what the Kengan series lost: reason.Who needs reason when you have somebody on par with the legends?
>>269047838Jesus, be careful Yuzuha. You'll blind someone with those.
>>269066859That was in Volume 0 of Kengan Asura.
>>269048149Conceptualize the threesome between those two psychos and (You)

>>269054969>Kengan having a women's division makes absolutely no senseMoney and Prestige matters for having female divisions.

>>269048217>we're already at full blast schizo vagueposting
Or how about>Tenma Nozomi - "Valkyria"We're given medical and economic background to who is arguably the protagonist of this manga, but it's nothing more than exposition to start the story. Nozomi and her 2 friends do NOT seem terrified of bankruptcy, yet their idea to start up "Valkyria" as a public women's MMA organization is nothing remarkable aside from the idea that it might have "underground" or "illegal" participation. Frankly, to find this startup idea as any remarkable is laughably false and their marketing practices look terrible. Granted, it might still be "early" in this manga, but this "Valkyria" does not seem enticing to the 3 starting it, the list of female fighters it would employ, or the Japanese audience it's looking to attract....And what value does contracting Hina have to this gambling agency using female fighters as its betting front? Given the implication her involvement would announce fame to this new business, we are NOT seeing any explosive excitement and ridiculous influx of powerful female fighters clamoring to join this terrific MMA organization and fight each other and Hina. Or, back to Nozomi, despite the original exposition to her character, she seems COMPLETELY lacking in any sort of fame or agency. Any sort of attraction from how "famously strong" she was occurred years ago which, apparently, is ANCIENT and just outright irrelevant, now. So what purpose does establishing her as "MAYBE STRONGER THAN HINA!!!!!!" even serve aside from "lol, Hina likes her, so she'll join?"These two protagonists just do not serve their purposes. But, well, that's common with many Sandrovich characters; established explicitly to take specific roles and then act completely without reason.
>>269065994Is MAAM even able to draw a girl that isn't sexo?
>>269066820Hina still runs the risk of becoming a black hole like Shen is where the story is kinda forced to reshape itself around them, and any attention focused on characters that don't have anything directly to do with their plot feels like filler because it actively grinds the plot to the halt. Isshou Senkin is still too small for the latter to be an issue and the characters still feel like they have agency outside of the big conspiracy - it helps that Hina was there from the start unlike Shen who Sandro just shoved in and called it a day - but that might change as the manga marches on.
>>269065173Now I remember we still don't know the reason Bando went insane and killed people.
I want to spend the rest of my life having raw baby-making sex with Tenma Nozomi, if you know what I mean.
>>269047751IORI MY LOVE
>>269067215Iori has the most charisma of the main trio, but Nozomi feels like a reverse Kazuo that's in a bit of a limbo storywise. Having her be there purely from the business angle feels redundant because Iori and Hana do those much better. If Nozomi has something to offer, it must be because she is the only one who can drag Hina around, but Iori is more suitable even here because she can actually fight without having to risk her ocular health, on top of the "able to provide punching bags for Hina" and "able to herd those punching bags" thing.I'd say Nozomi's appeal comes from her being a retired fighter that decided she'd rather be the one handing out the fight money, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of avenues where that can be explored because again, Nozomi is the most replaceable amongst her friends, and Hina is threatening to take the "retired fighter" aspect away from Nozomi by having her become an active fighter again.
>>269067396Hina this isn't the time to think marrying and family with Nozomi.
>>269067267>black holeIt's probably the most frustrating thing about Sandrovitch's villains. They don't do anything. They're literally godlike in strength, but, so what? Over and over it turns out we didn't have to worry about it, and they never did anything with their strength or resources.>Kengan Asura "WORM"No end goal. Harms no one.>Kengan Omega "Villain of the Week"Loses despite introduced as the most powerful human in existence. Or, harms no one.>Isshou Senkin "Hina"No end goal. Harms no one.If anything, Sandrovich just likes writing new characters and his mangas are a platform to do that. It fits "Danberu" very well, since it's literally a CGDCT instructional booklet on diet and exercise and genuinely has zero plot. But for his MMA "let's read this story" manga? No.
Given Sandy's mangas always devolve into>wtf is even happeningit really just needs to stay a manga where were see who wins the tourney. And then, a new tourney.
>>269047510Why is this more interesting than Kengan Omega
>>269067267Hina is entertaining because she's a fight-happy lunatic, unlike Shen
>>269067549Actually Hina wants to overthrow the Japanese government and is literally just playing a game with the protagonists
>>269067549What really confuses me is how Sandro can't seem to make the audience give a shit about the characters he wants us to give a shit about.We're supposed to think Luohan is an evil piece of shit? We're supposed to like Shen Wulong and think he did nothing wrong? Nope.We're supposed to see the current Kengan tournament as a pseudo-Gu ritual? Nah.We're supposed to hate the Westward Wu and root for the Kures? Fuck no.Like other anons have pointed out, maybe Sandro just takes for granted that people will root for the characters he likes and so doesn't bother to explore the headspace of those characters.>>269067783>unlike ShenThat's the issue, Shen is supposed to be a fight-happy lunatic too, yet because Sandro wants to protect the integrity of Kenganvengers like Kuroki, there's no room for him to be one.
>>269060075Of course you do, faggot
>>269067744checked and also because there're girls.Also, right now it's fairly low-risk, so when it fails to deliver tension or has mild repercussions it's less frustrating than Omega's>"lol, Ohma died? Nah.">"everyone on planet Earth should be fearful of Worm and who Shen is! Apocalypse is coming!" >*proceeds to visit hotel bars and lounges and do nothing*
>>269047751Little sisters really are the best
>>269067812I hope she gets the confrontation she wants, then. Hopefully it will deliver on her psychopathically murderous nature or maybe her opponent will be so strong we actually sympathize when she ends up getting similarly crippled as Nozomi and cannot live her brawling fantasies anymore.
>>269067700I so want some omakes about their lives as students, and how they were the biggest losers of the school but actually Hana fucked the entire classroom.
>>269066498>Cockfighting manga, but from the perspective of the cocks>They all view themselves as tough guys and "martial artists">Also it's a tournament manga and one plays the Kuroki/Old master roleEssentialy it's Kengan with roosters.
>>269067836>Shen>"Why are you doing this, Shen!? You're a part of Worm, in fact you're the #1 head honcho! Why aren't you helping us do our thing which we need done!?!?">"...are you telling me what to do?">"NO NO NO NO NO NO! Oh no, no, no, no! Not at all! Hahaha! Don't mind me!"What is the point of this? Who the fuck are they and why should I care?
>>269067943That's going to be Carla, she'll be the one who will push Hina's shit in.
Thanks for the dump op, take these pictures I got of a hina cosplayer from anime expo
>>269067348They'll try it more into the Worm SHENanigans just you wait.
>>269066859Who could forget this panel?
>>269048103>>269048149So, the new schizo girl is going to see Nozomi and Hina interacting and get jealous of how attached to her Hina has become already, and decide like the Kiryu/Niko thing that she's a bad influence on Hina and try to kill her.However in traditional Sandro villain, at best she takes down one of the side characters for hype before jobbing in her first real fight to Nozomi, then optionally gets finished off by another shadowy supposedly stronger star child who says that Rei was always the weakest among them, and that she is the only "star" that they need.
>>269068428>Decently muscularI appreciate the dedication. Or she was already into fitness but still.
>>269068452>Baki with roses>The abs and scars on that Ohma dollKek, I like the style
>>269068428>Shadow plushie on the left
>>269068428>>269068452That Hina cosplayer has to be a legit WMMA fighter.
>>269066820It's like he always builds a house of cards just above his ability as a writer and then it predictably collapsesBaki has the right idea with no real structure beyond>There's a tournament>A new guy shows up and they fight
>>269068618She seems eager to kill, but yeah she's probably lower on the Star totem pole.
>>269068452>>269068428>No barefootSo close to be a 8/10 cosplay.
>>269069047While I agree, I don't think I would walk around a convention center bare foot.
>>269069668I saw a female L cosplayer walking outside barefoot once.
>>269057084Personally my biggest gripe was the complete overabundance of super stoic characters while Togashi and Toramaru got heavily sidelined. I don't mind stoicism but when almost every relevant character is a 24/7 stoneface and almost never expresses anything else but their pride in their secret kung fu techniques it can get a bit dull.
Before this manga becomes schizophrenic I want to try to read into the narrative to try predict what's going to happen and make theories, let's start with the vague posting >>269047963>>269048057>>269048103>>269048149>>269048217"Last dad""Other children""Reach for the stars""Other kids""Star children ""Final Star"These are all the Vagueposts Sandro left in this chapter, I'll give my interpretations now >"Last dad" For me this confirms that the cult isn't really the"big thing" in this manga. Whatever Hina and Rei are into goes far beyond that, if anything the cult might have been a puppet for the "Star children" since the beginning (this would be an extreme Sandro thing to do)>Other children/Other kids/Star children I'll assume this is a translation of 星子 with the 子 character indicativo that whatever this group is it is likely made entirely of women/girls.These are likely girls that share some past with Hina and likely are all fighters (prepare for the Unfathomable girls that will get no diffed in a single panel!)>Reach for the stars Either a challenge all the star children are doing between them or the "star" part in the names refers to something tangible, a prize or something all Star children are looking to obtain >Final Star The final Star children and winner of whatever they are after, Hina pretty much confirms this conflict ends with only one child alive since she said Rei will die because of that.
>>269070456I think you're reading too far into some.>Last dadJust referring to her previous parental figure.>Reach for the starsJust a simple "let's do it!" essentially. Do whatever their battle royale entails.
>>269070456So based on this, and what the voices inside my head whisper to me this is my theory:Hina and Rei are part of some twisted game/ritual/practice made by a Korean feminist witch covenant who is trying to groom a girl into the "Final Star" They brainwashed all these girls to be used as assets for whatever Korean feminist witches need them to do (in the case of Hina she was sent into the jobber cult because the witches needed something to expand their influence in Japan) but for some reason all these special girls are now needed from this twisted ritual/challenge/whatever.Whatever their final objective is it must be related to fighting prowess because this is written by Sandro all the star children are girls trained to fight beyond their physical limitations and it's likely they want to turn one of these girls into their desired result, so it might be either:>They want to create a new breed of women that are as strong as men (lame and nonsensical because Riko exist in this world)>They have a technique/martial art that needs to be passed down to the next generation but this is the only way to do it (boring and borderline the same shit as Niko in Ashura)>"Becoming God actually means becoming a vessel for something" (literally just female shen, please no) >These girls are actually chasing delusions implanted inti them by the witches as a joke, there's nothing to be gained from this other than sick pleasure for the ones orchestrating everything (unlikely but funny to think about)I can't Hope to ever predict what's inside of Sandro's mind but these are my thoughts so far.Also the Korean feminist witches are just a joke, it could be any other type of evil women org, but I think something like that would fit considering there was an actual Feminist cult in Korea
>>269067836Shen isn't a fight happy lunatic like Hina is. She wants blood and pain, he just wants to play
>>269070871>>269070456I like the delusion one the most but what're the odds Sandro would do that? Zero I guess
>>269070968Unless Sandro actually wants to develop Hina as a character outside of "WAKU WAKU CRAYZEEEEEE" I don't think there's a chance of this happening, because the pay off of such a thing would center around Hina realizing her entire life is a sick joke and watching her break down and (hopefully) rise from her ashes as something better than what her old masters created, but of course this only works if she is allowed to show emotions (sadness, despair, grief, anger, etc)
>>269071251Anon Hina fights because she wants someone to beat her, this "Final Star" thing isn't her primary motivation.The real Star Cult motivation was to cause worldwide collapse of government
>>269070456Last Dad is probably Staface from Hina's flashback.
>>269070456>For me this confirms that the cult isn't really the"big thing" in this manga. Whatever Hina and Rei are into goes far beyond that, if anything the cult might have been a puppet for the "Star children" since the beginning (this would be an extreme Sandro thing to do)This is essentially already confirmed by Hina's flashback to her teacher giving a mission to her and the other children. She and the others were 100% assigned to go and subvert(lol) cults like the army of god and direct them from whatever their original purpose was, to full doomsday shit(the interview with the ex-member said that the leader of the army of god only went fully off the deep end into wanting to cause an apocalypse after Hina "changed" him)>reach for the stars/"Final Star"New vagueposting Tiger's Vessel nonsense that Sandro himself doesn't know the meaning of yet, he'll decide exactly what it entails later.Also I guess Rei is the one sitting next to Hina in pic related.
>>269071578I really like my idea that Shen is the first Star Child. Crazy lady taught him Huisheng and told him to get strong enough to take over a cult and destroy the world but she realized she did it too early
>>269047523Hana a cute!
>>269068252Literally Shamo. You get the joke
>>269066498Basically picrel but as a martial arts manga and with less furries
>>269047523Was it rape?
>>269051584Sandro really loves doing that
>>269072693This page is so amazing, I don't know Daro managed to pack so much NTR energy into this, down to Yamashita's pose even.
>>269072693kek
>>269069840>outsideWhich is way safer than convention floors
>>269057146Bold of us to assume the possiblity of a timeskip that outs it adjacent to Omega.
>>269057146What’s really pissing me off is that all his plotlines are super easy to think of fixes for
>>269048217It's hard to take any of these villains seriously when we know Shen is a literal immortal demigod who can stop aging with his breathing. We are too deep into wuxia/fantasy category that realistic villains like death cults are too tame now
>>269072891Wouldn’t it be funny if the Star Children straight up annihilated multiple cities worth of people with bioweapons as a show of their threat level?
>>269048217Surely THIS organisation of schizoid nigh-suicidal villains will be a legitimate threat.
>>269073086Genuinely hoping that they somehow humiliate the Kengan Association
>>269073263The Kengan Association being introduced into this as more than a passing wink to the audience would be the point of no return from pure undiluted Sandro fuckery.
>>269073263Sandro would never (voluntarily) bring shame to the Kengan Avengers
>>269047523Notice than Karen wearing a bathrobe meaning that Hana didn't gave her back her clothes (and possibly underwears)
>>269068618>and that she is the only "star" that they need.Evil is on the move.
When are we getting someone from Kure?
>>269047523>lesiban rape so good it mindbroke herOkay, this is at least funny.>>269072760The pose, the proportions, the clothing. Everything is just NTRight.
>>269073892Probably when we get to KAT-level promotions so Karla can get an actual challenge. Read: steamroll over any non-Hina opponents so Sandro can continue his Kure wank.
>>269073892Hopefully never. Realistically, in the first "big" tournament that isn't just a 1-4 match thing like the first couple arcs here.
>>269067843Rude
>>269073722Hana is such a feisty demon.
I don't like how Hana seems to be the one who will look for info around Hina instead of Iori. But I guess that was chosen to give her something to do instead of having her sit on her fat ass the entire series.
>>269068912
>>269075406Logically speaking there's not much reason for her to do much fighting compared to other characters, so I guess that's why Sandro gave that plot to her.
>already cringe worm 2.0 plotSandrooooooooo
>>269050373>Sandro should know at this point that he fucking SUCKS at writing these kinds of plotsDoes he just have an editor whose on the level of the pushover that let Kishmoto release that trainwreck Samurai 8 or something? Any sensible editor with a backbone would have reeled Sandro in long ago.
>>269047523I like that little detail of where the stungun hit her throat.
>>269075780Nice
>>269072828It was out on the concrete ground and not exactly smooth either. Are convention floors really that bad?
>>269072685Is it ever?
>>269077380Oh yeah I didn't look closer enough there.
>Hina obsesses over "fast" fighters>Someone she seemingly respects is introduced >Presumably this someone is "fast">She's named ReiWhy use "R3i" for the not one but TWO speedy fucks in your verse? Out of all the Sandrovisms we've seen so far this was the most jarring to me. Just unnecessary.
Nice chapter but what about my girl Sara?
>>269077740Rei even had the surname Takezuki so he is clearly named after Takemikazuki Rei, a god of lightning. This Rei may be the same.

>>269070456>I'll assume this is a translation of 星子 with the 子 character indicativo that whatever this group is it is likely made entirely of women/girls.Wait a fucking minute. Isn't that a lot of info that was left out by translation?
>>269077914She's her little sister

You know what? Im full of hope. Sandro isn't doing much in this manga, it's probably good that he is directing all hackery into Omega.

>>269077914Hina beat the bitch out of her.>>269078535Sure, but TWO times? Why? If it had been in a prototype manga like FotS it'd be understandable to recycle the idea, but Kengan is his most popular work and still being published.

>>269078654I don't think the post is denigrating Sandro, anon. It's a basic template post I've seen plenty of times in other threads. You might be too caught up in the perceived negativity of Keng/a/n.
>>269078644Maybe he'll do better this time.
>>269078347Depends on how long Sandro manages to stay in the relatively low power-level territory. If he immediately goes >okay fuck you femKAT is a thing nowout of nowhere that would fast track SiR to Kengan Omega level real fast.

>>269079200Oda wishes he could hack as hard as Sandro
>>269079200Oda rarely vagueposts directly. He does have an unfortunate tendency to drag things out, but vast majority of things are at least somewhat explained or get some sort of pay off later.Sandro just literally puts random words in quotation marks.
>>269079231You sure about that?
>>269079304Yes.
>>269047579Part of the bait.

>>269066820Yes it's a garbage setup but waifufaggots love it.
>>269079304Two different kind of vagueposts. Oda is all about blatantly obscuring the steps of the plot, whereas Sandro obscures the plot itself. Oda would say "*That Man* has went on to do *That*, we need to go to *That Place* and get *it*" and two / three arcs later, you'd get the actual names in a pretty underwhelming manner. Sandro would say "The "Forerunner" has initiated the "Communion", we are but only mere "Dice Rolls" away from the "Ascension".", with each of these terms changing definition every 5 chapters or so. It's important to be precise.
>>269083938"I" finally "understand" now.

>>269083938This 'anon' have 'arrived'.
>>269078654>>269078723Yeah I didn’t mean it in any negative way, it was just to compare them since she was more cutesy and making the >u< expression this chapter.
>>269047523>there will never, ever be porn drawn of this because Sandro is a literally who hack outside of /a/
>>269085340Darn
>>269074890>Hina wins easilyWhat kinda cope will Sandro bring up
Am I the only one who feels that Ohma is a fraud?
>>269085744How so?
>>269085845I dunno. Everyone just seems to be doing better than him generally speaking
>>269085340Hold out hope, there have already been more Riko images than I thought they'd ever be.
>>269085744Your opinion on pankration?
>I singlehandedly exposed the pankration anon and others are following suitLOOK AT MEI'M THE STRONGEST
>>269085878I mean if he comes back able to do that perfect punch Shen taught him regularly he'd be a right monster so I think he'll be find even against Agito's new evolved power.Heck assuming Agito wins that might be their next match since we never got that in Asura.
>>269086112The dude kinda got mindbroken lately. His posts are easy to spot (and imitate, for that matter).
>>269086180So "you" are suggesting "He" could be "Worm"?
>>269085744Only for pretending to be dead, but that's the writers fault not his. The only other instance maybe is Shen telling him to change his form slightly while punching and that having so much of an impact, but again that's just the current writing.
I think I will read this manga
>>269086070kek
Does anyone think that "I" am a "fraud">>269086453Please don't
>>269086453"He" has "awakened"
>>269085979>Most popularFor once, Nips recognize who best girl truly is.
>>269085979>PicI have "Arrived" all "over" my "pants"
>>269086641>Yuzuha menstrual tea
>>269085979Is she gonna be drawn fucking Yuzuha? Is she gonna be drawn fucking anything? No?Then I don't care.
>>269086687Tastes like thermite
>>269086641I'm glad they recognized her cuteness
>>269086746>Any use or reproduction of the illustrations is prohibited>AI
>>269086641I wish Iori got some attention too.>>269086876We live in a society, it seems.
>>269086876Oh its getting worse and worse with stuff like that
>>269086941This is the lewdest she has.
>>269086641>>269086687Riko's bodily fluids shrink your testicles and give you a heart attack, because she takes more tren than fucking Julius.
>>269086997Is it just me or is her right leg like twice the size of her left?
>>269086876>AIthat is not ai.>>269087044Just like Daro does it
>>269086997I'd agree on just some cute or cool art.
>>269087044Dammit you're right, I can't unsee it now.I think it's more so because there's no clear line divide between the calf and thigh.
>>269085979There's also a bunch of Yuzuha stuff
>>269087112I do have is this, but that's about it
>>269087223Yeah she probably actually has the most still
>>269070456>>269070871I'll give you a real theory!"Star children" isn't a translation of 星子(this would be a name) but of 星の子 (hoshi no ko) because the cult is actually a group of wealthy Otaku that are grooming girls into becoming the perfect 2D waifus! And all the training, murder, and whatever else is just for the sake of turning these girls into real life Taimanin girls (or something like that I only consume Taimanin porn so I don't know if the girls actually fight there) The big subversion will be Hina winning and "moving on" to the "next phase" that is sexual training (because of course once you got the base for a perfect 2D waifu in flesh and bones you need to make her into a unrelenting sex toy little anime girls are usually depicted in doujins, this will make Hina snap and become "A true star"
>>269087224Cute.
>>269086746>Making Riko's brain malfunction with simple riddles
>>269086112Huh?
Why is this manga have so much lesbian energy
>>269088160You see what you want to see.
>>269088160I bet you also think Kengan is gay as fuck
>>269088176Correct, I was (and still am) stewing in anger at the moment thinking about that.
>>269088176Anon none of the characters have shown any attraction to dudes
>>269088334And?..
>>269088401Hina is extremely attached to Nozomi, and all of the girls are constantly complimenting each other
>>269086129It feels like Ohma struggling even a bit against Lolong made him look really bad.
>>269088334I rarely go around and hit on girls, does this mean im gay? Use your head, retard.
>>269088460Hina is brain damaged.People complimenting each other doesn't mean sexual attraction. Or are you one of those guys who immediately scream NO HOMO whenever you see another dude do something impressive physically?
>>269088334>The series needs male romance to not have "lesbian energy"Please stop talking
>>269088334Because Sandro is a cryptid who doesn't really care about sex.
>>269088697Underground pro deathmatches don't link well to romance I am afraid. Then again there's 5 billion married assassins in the kenganverse so~.
>>269088511>>269088500It’s mostly because there’s a lot of sexual energy within the fights and interactions.Hana and Karen’s altercation reads like some kinda weird buildup to a rape thing.
>>269088798Look I get you want to see fit, attractive anime babes smash clams like rabbits but not every fighting manga is Hagure Idol.
>>269088806>It’s mostly because there’s a lot of sexual energy within the fights and interactionsOr maybe you're just a coomer who took the yuri memes too seriously.
>>269088806Anon, hate to break it to you, but i didn't see anything abnormal. I mean, im not a woman, but i did martial arts as a kid and student. It's just banter.
>>269088836No I don't? I hate yurifaggots and I don't care about whatever shit "fighting" manga you keep trying to push.
>>269088840Or maybe it’s not that far of a stretch to say that the characters who look like they’re making O-faces or bedroom eyes in the middle of a fight have sexual energy
The actual subversion will be the 2 chapter long HinaxNozomi sex scene were they fuck so hard their eggs fuse inside their pussies as they are scissoring each other, creating a new lifeform born without make input, his name? Shen Wulong!
>>269088881I’m not talking about that, I’m talking about shit like>Sara basically orgasming when Ichika hits and bites her>Karen being tied up with bedsheets by Hana, who knocked her out while naked>Hina’s weird attraction to Nozomi, openly fantasizing about Ichika biting her, and how she basically compared Yuzuha breaking her foot to losing her virginityFor fucks sake Yuzuha has a bunch of Jap women who want to fuck her
>>269088960>Or maybe it’s not that far of a stretchYes it is. You're delusional.
>>269089165I can understand Karen and Hina, but with Sara it could've been anyone. It's just she met an insane cop instead of a "normal" fighter who goes for strikes and shit.
>>269089165Hina is mentally unwell. Sara is also mentally ill masochist. Tying someone up isn't inherently sexual.
>>269089213Anon look at her face
>>269089259I’m pretty sure what Hana did had some very, very rapey vibes
>>269089298>I’m pretty sureBecause you're a deranged coomer, yeah.
>>269089324What do you want them to do then?
Riku needs a win, I want to see Riko get proud of her sister's Archivements
>>269079304Knowing what we know now about Haki, those 2 soldiers must be at least Admiral tier to guard Roger
>>269089552...Logel turned himself in. He had no reason to run away.
>>269089552Roger let it happen is the thing. In these kinds of manga, you can simply "hold back" to let things kill you much like a Dragon Ball character lowering their power level. Roger wanted to die there, so he died.
>>269089749Or, you know, he got weaker from being terminally ill.
>>269086453Why would you do this to me
>>269066989They'd just ignore us throughout the whole thing
>>269047523>>269047579damn I wanted literal piss but close enoughso i got 2/3 fights right and predicted>the assassin getting bent the wrong way>that yak pissing himselfand soon>muscle waifus will become friendsbelieve in the plan
>>269059620The finger thingy is the funniest one. Any other fighter KNOWS where the fucking median line is and can strike it precisely. Even Mentaro in FOTS, a dude that is specifically not very skilled, could somewhat aim at the line even if his punches ended hitting other areas of the body. Lolong doing that is like Mike Tyson having to do some stretching mid-combat to properly hit a chin
>>269082027Sandro wishes he could asspull the fucking choose choose one fruit or the i can asspull female joyboy out of my ass or the dimes THE WILL OF D IS......(transmission is cut) AND NOW EVERYONE IS GOING TO DIE *croaks until ruffy finds another asspull asspull fruit or the useless jews of the world goverment reveal he was merely pretending to be dead*
>>269089777Roger was in mostly peak condition thanks to the treatment given to him by his doctor for most of his illness. It's how he was able to throw it down with Whitebeard without issue.
>>269091281He was still dying of aids and wanted to protect his son and crew, and also give the world goverment the biggest fuck you with the one piece reveal
What even was Rogers desease? Was it ever explained?
>>269091415The point was that Roger was still easily capable of breaking out at any time easily if he so wanted. He'd much prefer to go out with a bang and cause a stir in the pirate community than just fade into nothing with a disease.
>>269087069>that is not ai.I don't read moon runes, but there's "AI" on the script.
>>269091481He had the jap flu no mi, very deadly if you aren't the choosen one joyboy with the porridge no mi dish
>>269088232>
>>269091555That artist has been drawing in that art style for far longer than AI has been serviceable. mayhaps it stands for something else.
>>269083402What about the reverse, if Oda did Kengan?>Shen would save Ohma's life early on in Kengan from Setsuna or Akoya or Raian or whoever, and then never do anything again other periodically appearing, staring into the distance with a "..." while Yan delivers the newest recap info for the latest arc.>Lihito seeks to be the strongest karate master in the world, but after he gets humbled by Kuroki, Kuroki vanishes from the plot as well as any future fight.>There is a time bomb buried in the arena floor that will explode and kill the current fighters every match if some arbitrary time limit is reached.
>>269091693Setsuna is arguably more feminine than some SiR girls.
>>269090487Yep
>>269091804>niko style is the bestest style and can bend anyone to your will......except no one will use it until kengan omega and when asked why no one used it before they just shrug
>>269090487Speaking of which it’s depressing how Sandro bought back his FOTS cast but didn’t give them their personalities.Joji and Kureshi aren’t psychotic enough. I can understand mellowing out but good lord Kureshi literally masturbates to breaking bones.You really couldn’t keep some of that psychotic energy they had?Mentaro should come back though
>>269091930??? What are you on about, kureshi was one panel away from cumming every time he showed up in ashura and was reaching orgasm during the xia gets abused arc
Waka has never lost a fight on-screen
>>269092017Imagine if Waka gets the redemption arc to end all redemption arcs.>He trained with Katsuya and his skill level went up multiple dans
>>269091898Honestly, 'Principles' might actually end up essentially becoming the equivalent of Haki
>>269092059Sandro, enough with your shitty FOTS characters. I'm not going to read that shit.
This happened. It's all a dream.
>>269092097I wish
>>269091996Wait what
>>269048217Now it's a Sandro manga.
>>269079304>You were never the "Drums of Liberation" Luffy!>I'm the only "King of the Pirates" we need....
Say Shen did die after his first fight with Mukaku. Then what would Sandro have done?
>>269093942Everyone is left trying to figure out what the fuck just happened
>ctrl+f "hazuki">3 resultsEveryone's already moving on huh? At least give us a shot of her and Sara in the infirmary or something.
>>269093942Introduce another Connector and give him the beer characterization after killing Mukaku effortlessly
>>269093942The plot would have probably started spiraling around the Tiger Niko, 'Tiger's Vessel', and the Niko Style would get even more focus/wank.Whether that's better or worse than what we currently got is up to interpretation, but given how sick and tired some people are already of the Niko style, I have no doubt that there would be a lot of hate for this other plotline, although I don't know how the anger compares to the current worm plotline.
>>269094009Technically 5 if you also consider "Yuu", but yeah. She wasn't on this chapter and she's not very sexo, so people will naturally forget her.
>>269094408Hazuki and Sara are honestly disappointing characters even if this arc is supposed to be the result of a bit villain lashing out with Hayami-tier antics.It's like Sandro forgot he was writing them as high-level martial artists. Sara is just turned into a masochist with no real moves outside of blurry flurries even though she was supposed to use a brutal style, Iori felt like the actual brutal martial artist. There's nothing about Sara's style that tells me she could have accidentally killed anybody in the ring.Hazuki's boxing was shoved aside in favour of her bone gimmick that was essentially deactivated the moment it got explained. Her being a serial killer that hacks people up with an axe didn't meld together well with her being an expert boxer. Saw Paing essentially had the same gimmick Hazuki did, and the only time he needed to worry about organ damage was when Rei attacked him in the middle of him throwing out his ultimate move.
>>269049121this guy's fight was definitely the worst in omega. so painfully bad, even worse than Lolong who was hyped up to heaven and back only to lose without Ohma really trying.
>>269059442most subtle yurifag
>>269060667>>269061274this bitch should be dead considering how her match against Hina ended
>>269095012There are many "worst" fights in Omega. Many of which come from Purgatory. Case in point: Carlos vs Gaolang.
>>269091996He stuck his tongue out once and wiggled his fingers like that fat son of a bitch at the office when someone brings donuts. FOTS Kureishi got a HARD ON thinking about snapping joints and had to masturbate in the bathroom to vent
>>269095186Chinese have adapted to 4000 years of head trauma
>>269095012>>269095220You seem to forget Gaolang vs Jurota...
>>269095220The only four-ish good fights there were>Lihito vs Falcon (Kinda?)>Julius vs Toa (MAYBE)>Akoya vs Nicolas (Up until Lolong showed up)>Nitoku vs Liu
>>269095396I actually dropped before that so I concede
>>269095469Julius vs Toa is a joke. They only hit each other a few times and then Julius just easily destroys him as if he wasn't on the backfoot a moment ago. Makes Toa look like an even bigger joke with his backstory.
>>269095490Not even recency bias. Give me one previous fight that has 0 redeeming qualities like this one.
>>269095541Like I said, MAYBE
>>269095541Nah Julius vs Toa was great.
>>269095554Raian vs Willem and Sean.
>>269095554anon, I already conceded with a kneeling reaction image. you win.
>>269095603how was it great?
>>269093942Retcon out the 'dragon' and 'tiger' being inside Shen and just make up three other connectors (who represent the tiger, bird, and tortoise respectively) who lament how the mighty dragon was actually the weakest among them and how this doesn't change any of their plans
>>269094788What makes it worse is that these Murderers lost outright to objectively lesser fightersIori wasn't given a Martial art and was working on pure menacing behavior but won out anyway, Hana hadn't practiced Martial arts since highschool and Riko is an objectively stupid person with stupid fighting moves and techniqueWho's the editor-san for this one, is it the same as Kengan or is Sandro free roaming
>>269095708The dragon was never a part of Shen, he was only the tiger.
>>269095761Dude the entire gimmick of Shen is that he's the dragon and tiger in one. What do you think that retarded shit with Ohma being the TV but not being "him" or whatever while Ryuki's name being dragon ghost and saying that was Shen
>>269095633>Raian disappears for about half a year(?) in real time>Most we get of him is a flashback>Meanwhile Willem is slowly growing to be a fan favorite among Keng/a/n for not being a stupid idiot>Cuts to his fight with Akoya where he dominates on-screen until he jobs off-screen>"Don't worry, it was his first fight and he didn't die!">Cuts to his fight with Raian with a giant ass sword>Willem is accompanied by his only minion, Sean, who we all figure is going to get fed to Raian, which he does>Willem unexpectedly starts jobber speaking out of nowhere>REMOVAL X SUPERMAN SYNDROME>Get neg-diffed by Principles and has his head sliced in half>Keng/a/nons were so mortified they hoped beyond hope the shitty way Daro drew the head slicing meant that actually Willem survived and was spared as a messangerI didn't think there were guys here who still held out hope like that but we have zero Villains with redeeming qualities now so let that be a lesson to everyone here
>>269095857>Dude the entire gimmick of Shen is that he's the dragon and tiger in oneNo, there is just Shen and "Tiger". There is no dragon's vessel.
>>269095857where does Koga fit into this?
>>269095761I hate how little bloodlust or aura Shen has.If Sandro wants Shen to have actual presence, have him do something that we can physically understand and see as impressive. As well as actually correlates to his character as an endpoint of martial arts.>Is the one who does the shockwave punch>Basically uses Rakshasa's palm with his grip to turn Mukaku's spear into a spiral shape>Throws Mukaku with his own spear so fucking hard that he plants him in the ground>Parts a lake like Liu did except way better>Blows out so much air with his breathing techniques that he creates a smokescreen via all the dust on the floorYujiro simply tore a table in half like paper and it had presence. Technically it isn't as impressive as breaking concrete, but it had aura and creativity to itTLDR if Sandro wants Shen to have aura, have him do something batshit insane that people will remember for years to come
>>269095991>Shen is the dragon>Ohma is the phoenix>Ryuki is the tortoise>Koga is the tiger
>>269091555It probably means that you shouldn't use his artwork for AI.
>>269095857ohthey're his personalitiesso the tiger vessel is supposed to be his literal vessel for the tiger
>>269096041Who's the kangaroo?
>>269096006Childish
>>269096164You got any better ideas to actually make Shen intimidating?
>>269096160some aussie omega hasn't introduced yet
>>269096182I don't want or need to think about that pastebinfag.
>>269096182More like how do we make Luohan intimidating since he's the clear main villain now and not Shen who willingly hangs out with the Kengans for fun
>>269096208>Make his big three worth 1000kg.>Make him insane>Give him Superman syndrome and Removal 100%>He licks people to show how bonkers he is
>>269096244Btw he is also (formerly) a disgruntled office worker.
>>269095641Just about everything aside from Toa ceasing to exist after the fight when he’s arguably stronger than Julius.
>>269096208Have him randomly nuke some place like they already did with Italy and make him someone who's willing to use anything and everything to try to pressure things into going his way with the apparent tons of nukes they have in storage instead of trying to settle things through honorable 1v1 kung fu combat.It'd at least make him different from everyone else who tries to settle things through a kengan match.
>>269096070I could see that, though it's weird the english and nip disclamers are different.
>>269096361what's so great about Toa being Julius with Demonsbane?
>>269096207Why not?
>>269096407Good start
Hassad when?
Another good thread.
