Chapter 344: A Surprising Proposal
>>284224249omg this finna be based
>>284224287oh shit! it's dat boi, waddup
>>284224356this nigga finna get mogged
Kuroki could never
>>284224389Kuroki would just use his dick
>>284224356>I can't let you do all the fighting yourself.No, not in this free-for-all tournament that Shen requested to sate his battle-lust. That would be unethical. WORM is very ethical.
>>284224471A razor thin margin...
This manga is pointless. Even the art is, now, meangingless and inconsistent.
>>284224494MONK SAMAAAAAAA!!!!!
Sorry, got a phonecall from "that man"I'm back now
>>284224504what's thinner than a razor? i think that was too thick for this outcome.
>>284224471Wow... if Yan hadn't slipped that uppercut, who knows how this fight could've turned out... Onoda truly was a fearsome opponent...
>>284224356>Just wanted to fight>That's LITERALLY all he wants>Nah, bro sit this one outWhy?
I feel like every other chapter is Sandwich hotfixing a previously /a/ mentioned tournament exploit
I never noticed that Yan initially punches with his left >>284224455but feints it then actually strikes with his right.>>284224471Could this be a clue about his fighting sty-zzzzzzzzzz
>>284224655>Why?
I can't wait for the chapter where Muteba swims against a wall for 12 hours to gather enough speed to BLJ to a parallel world so he can sneak up to the connector without jumping
>>284224768Ohma is WAKKA WAKKA
>>284224768KEK Sandro adressed the criticism
>>284224745>That Okubo stanceI've seen that before...
>>284224768>You want me to cheat and betray my best friend Shen?!
>>284224768Would the tournament end here? It'd just keep going right? The way he's phrasing it he'd be the only one with the RIGHT to win, meaning he could still lose through just getting knocked the fuck out but retain the rightHe, EVERYONE can still fight, correct? So what's the conceivable reasoning behind not allowing Muteba to disqualify himself since he can still do everything he originally wanted to do?
>>284224790alternate
Long chapter this week, truly we were blessed on this day
>>284224768Say they actually go through with this plan and have to explain to Shen he lost because of a retarded technicality, what then?He just tucks his tail between his legs and fucks off to a mountain somewhere?What are we doing here?
>>284224790>>284224811>>284224838>Heh. Nice moves, Muteba, you're quicker than I remember.>*SNAP* Muteba whinces in pain as his left hand broke in an unnatural way>H-How did you?! When?!>Niko Style: Joint Annihilation I activated your nerves, jolting them into chaos.>*Muteba's hand begins to twist and break, the damage climps upwards to his forearm*>AAAAAAH TOKITA STOP THIS!!>Oh I will. I'm the only one that can before your entire body becomes a black pretzel.>*His collarbone begins to bend, Okubo horrified begins to puke*>MAKE IT STOP PLEASE!!>Give me back my medal Nigger and I will stop it.>*Muteba hands the medal over to Ohma. Muteba is eliminated due to injuries he sustained from Ohma's technique*
>>284224840Yeah I think Shen would go postal if he was blueballed that hard.
>>284224811What a wonderfully depicted wrist on Muteba, catching the tossed "coin" that happens to be larger than any pocket could hold.
>>284224840Shen literally just drinks beer and spends time with his friends we have been given literally no reason to think he would have any kind of violent outburst
>Muteba is a mercenary who only fights for money>it has been established repeatedly he will run from fights>but he's gonna risk fighting one of the strongest fighters on the planet now for reasonsHmmm.
>>284224811I genuinely read this page 3 times already and I think it was so stupid that my brain immediately hit alt f4 to prevent itself from saving it to memory I saw people memeing "non killing intent" and thought "that's weird where'd they get that from"
>>284224840Pretty sure he just does that, yeah. He seems unreasonably easy to reason with. Not sure how he ended up starting a cult
>>284224886Everyone respects each other so much in Kengan Omega.
>>284224886You don't understand, he's just like Lolong. An absolute maniac with unrivalled bloodthirst that we need to stop at all costs.I won't show you any of that but trust me we're in danger.
>>284224838Uh just walk away instead of standing there facing them dude the fuck are they gonna do.
>>284224990waht the fuck timmy gonna do
>>284224768>Can't explain why Ohma is such a wakuwaku fightfag in this situation without making him a total asshole>so I let Muteba interrupt him and then forget this plot point for the rest of the mangaAs expected from Sandrovich "I'll leave it up to your interpretation" Yabako
>>284224768>>284224790>"addresses" the criticism>actually just fully affirms the criticism>all of this could've been wholly avoided if he just did a normal elimination style battle royale and didnt needlessly add weird medal and zone rulesSandro wrote himself into a corner with stupid rules he only added to pad out his chapters and thought acknowledging the stupidity meant there wasn't anyThis is awfulAlso lol at Okubo arguing against Ohma then stanced up against Muteba intent on getting the medal back FOR OhmaThis is just a shitshow
>>284224838Im will forgive Sandro's crimes of the past 5 chapters if Muteba just bolts it and they never find him again because he is really good at hiding
>>284224768>>284224826actually i dont get it, does ohma need to still survive until the end if he ditches the medal?if that's the case he'd still be able to fight everyone he wanted and they'd all still be just as desperate to take him out since he's the only one that could be the winner if he made it to the endeven if he didnt need to he could still fight everyone but from a waku waku fighttard perspective letting muteba dq himself and being the only logical winner would put a HUGE bullseye on him so why the fuck wouldnt he?
>>284225116Ohma cares more about the sanctity of the competition rather than actually fighting people. He would otherwise forget all about this watch/token/zone nonsense and go immediately to fight Shen like the superjobbers are doing rather than waiting around doing nothing
>>284224287
>>284225116Ohma's never been particularly smart.
>>284225116Ohma is a fightoholicThat's been his character from page 1
>>284225116You don't get it. Our hero Ohma wants to fight his terrorist friends HONOURABLY unlike that coward Muteba
>>284224811he relaxed
>>284225235If only...
If you're going to have someone meet Ohma, have them steal the medal and then choose to fight Ohma over it why would you use Muteba as that character? There are dozens of jobbers who could have fit this role, why waste it on the guy who by all rights would have taken the medal and ran with no confrontation? There are plenty of guerilla hijinks you could have used Muteba for instead.
>>284224838>jobber who shat his pants and had to bring out a gun against Tikek Niko is now acting niggerishly tough around the guy that almost curb stomped THE Wulong
Honestly I would have rather had Fei with a cyberheart or something pull up.
>>284225297
>>284225394Have faith in chopstick johnny.
>Ohma is willing to get people hurt or even killed because HonorHow Japanese
>>284225065Kengan higher-ups came up with the medal in order to cheese Shen, the game was so obviously rigged for Ohma to get the medal first. Problem is they didn't realize how much of a wakuwakufag Ohma is. Nogi should have given the medal to Ryuki.
>>284225546>Nogi should have given the medal to Ryuki.He'd have done the same shit because he didn't want to disappoint KogaWhy the fuck didn't Nogi pay off and give the medal to Muteba, he's the only person who will reliably DQ himself
>>284225394In any other manga I would say having an explicitly dead character return from the dead just because they're a fan favorite would be jumping the shark but we've passed that point repeatedly during omega so I would actually welcome it. While we're at it bring Naidan back too.
>>284224636Oh yeah giga nigga I forgot he existed.
They should break the medal up into pieces and give a piece to every elite fighter and have the rest of the story be Shen tracking them down to restore the sonichu medallion.
>>284224953Their goals are so threatening, it's absurd! If they win this competition, we're all SO DOOMED!!
>>284225631This would have actually been cool if it exclusively followed Shen and treated him almost like a protagonist putting together pieces of his old skillset and re-learning his way back to godhood slogging through the high-tiers of the Kenganvengers eventually winding back up at Ohma, him broken and beaten but having fully regained his memories, Ohma also worn down but less soA nice inverse throwback to the last fight of Ashura
>>284224741You can tell it (probably) isn't a mistake too because there's movement lines on his left indicating that he pulled it back.
>>284225814the fact that random anons casually spitball ideas that are so much better than the reality of omega is depressing
I know our "memes" carry these "threads" but I am genuinely sad how shit this manga is. Fuck.
>>284225597How else would Karla get to marry and have sex with her husband?
>>284225814fuck that noise. i want to see death and destruction. everyone but the top 10 dying a horrible, death. then the survivors decide to have a massive orgy with cum and shit and lube everywhere
>>284224287Gonna be fucking honest, don't know if Muteba being pointlessly obscured is really dumb or a genius level troll by Sandro.
>>284226019Obscured?
>>284224655
When omega ends I will release my autism power limiter and go through every chapter to tally how often Koga does something. Not just show up in a panel to glaze ohma, I mean he is either taking a relevant action or has the spotlight. Because this "absent for fifteen chapters followed by one appearance before back to being absent" shit isn't cutting it any more.I need to see the protagonist.
If every chapter going to be>What is Ohma and Okubo up to>What is Shen and Yan up to>Some other third thing Is that how we eliminate jobbers so Kengan doesn't have a massive roster against the Worms?
>>284226202>I need to see the protagonist.He was there last chapter anon.
>>284225065>Also lol at Okubo arguing against Ohma then stanced up against Muteba intent on getting the medal back FOR OhmaAt least we might get Okubo vs. Muteba, the match of the... decade?
>>284226226Shen will punch the base of a mountain and cause a landslide that kills half the participants, cutting this bloated arc duration in half.
>>284226239Well played, I actually checked thinking I missed something.
>>284226253>Okubo starts up a whole monologue about how it's finally his time to shine and how he always wanted to fight Muteba>Ohma just teleports behind Muteba and oneshots him>walks up to Okubo, puts a hand on his shoulder and says something like: "No way man, it's not worth it. You're too strong for this, I can't let you get worked up over something so trivial. You're my dear friend, I can't risk you getting hurt">the rest of the tournament is just Ohma cockblocking Okubo against countless opponents, while he slowly descends into madness
>>284224790>>284224811around blacks....
I think we all should be the bigger men and respect the fact that Sandro wants to end the manga. Not with a sudden ending or hiatus but going through the motions until the very end.
>the answer to the quandary of "where is the tension when the match is Kenganvengers who all want Ohma to win vs worms who won't fight unless directly challenged" is for there to be Kenganvenger infighting>however, the motive for said infighting is not fighters wanting to win the tournament for their own wishes>it will be other people trying to stop Ohma from being a fucking suicidal retard willing to gamble with not just his but Ryuki's life over waku wakuI don't even know what to say anymore.
"GENOCIDERS could be here" he thought, "I've never been on this island before. There could be GENOCIDERS anywhere." The cool wind felt good against his exposed adamantine style enhanced chest. "I HATE GENOCIDERS" he thought. Divine Demon reverberated his entire blood system, making it pulsate even as the ¥1,600,000 wine circulated through his powerful thick veins and washed away his (merited) fear of The Connector after dark. "With the niko style, you can kill as many orphans as you want" he said to himself, out loud.
I received info about a normalfag being disappointed that Sandro is blueballing us from Ohma vs. MutebaUnfathomable.
muteba was too smart to win
>>284224838>implying Muteba will fight and not run his ass out
Mystery niggas
>>284226711The only thing Tiger Niko has left going for him is he's probably the best advance user ever and we didnt even get to see how he used it to rape KiryuImagine if instead of"EYIKES!! TIGER SHEN IS SCARY!!" pants shitter he got in stance and turned Advance on entirely by sheer instinct of "Holy fuck i'm about to die so preserving my heart by edging Advance is meaningless" and then just Tiger walks away so he looks a little silly but not like a whipped bitch
>>284227084>pants shitterHas any series had less respect for their antagonists? Even Fist Of The North Star goons went out with more dignity
>>284225814Yeah but can you write that in 5 minutes?
>>284224811Ok so you could easily beat Ohma by snatching the watch off his wrist? Since that wouldn't count as "violent intent"?
>>284227567Easily? No. This is a racial bonus for Muteba.
>>284224905Yeah, it really doesn't make sense. Assuming Muteba is lying and just wants the coin so that he can win himself, how does he realistically expect to make it out of a fight with Ohma and Okubo in a condition that would still allow him to win? Assuming Muteba isn't lying, going this far for the sake of a strategy that does not benefit him personally is completely out of character.
>>284224287Doing a "who could this mysterious character be" just to resolve it within less than 10 pages of the same chapter.
The only reason "non violent intent" is mentioned here is because Sandro watched the KNY movie btw.
>>284224905Sandro had read the complaints that he made Muteba too much of a pussy so he's going to rectify the situation. Happy now?
>>284227646I thought Muteba just wanted the coin for himself? That talk before is obviously just a false flag. I mean why would he sacrifice himself for Ohma?
hassad never
>>284224471All jokes aside, if Yan used his silly bugle fingers he might have just straight up instantly beheaded this man.
We might finish the Fortnite arc by 2028 at this rate
Could anyone from Omega take him down?
>Kengan x Kaiji crossoverYeah, I'm starting to slide more and more in the direction of the Sandrobitch seether anon who fantasizes about showing Sandro how "awesome" he is. Baki was one thing when it was an obvious crossover for Netflix to wrangle when it was showing both anime, but seeing Sandro's utter slop continue to get to rub shoulders with more and more famous series' is kind of infuriating.
>>284228260A shocker grunt?Probably the non-combatant female cast couldn't take it down.
>>284224636>no pussy hangin off his monster cock hes changed
>>284224811>Sup /a/, check out what just arrived in the mail
>>284228316Wait that's real?
>>284228429Yep.
Sandwich must suffer
>>284224327>Hail Hitler
>>284224833I FUCKING CAN'T
>>284224833Gotta love how Okubo's reaction fits
Ohma is too strong for you, MutebaLet me handle him for youSHEEEEYAAAAAAAAAAA
>>284224356>Stop, invincible son
"non killing intent" is literally unreactable bullshit dude when will they nerf this shit by the time you see the animation it's already round 2
I think the problem is we've become acclimated to the shit writing so even when there's some garbage going on like the "open to interpretation" line, it only elicits a tepid response.What we really want deep down is another Fei suicide or Shen making himself retarded on purpose kind of event.
>>284225081he's gonna job to our lord and savior ohma
>>284225546Ryuki would do the same as OhmaIf he wanted to rig the game he should have used someone like our hero Medicine Man
>>284224768>"Ohma, this entire "tournament" is balls to the walls retarded. Why're we even doing this when you can just cheese the win easy. Do you realize you are putting Ryuki at risk if you don't do this, you're not the only one Shen is after you know!">"Yea but like...I don't... It's just...."Ohma's such a douche lol
>>284224838I remember Muteba being a dark horse in the OG Kengan and was surprised he got pretty high up in rounds. Though would rather see him fight Okubo
>>284224471>>284224494omg bruh...
>>284225235B A S E DASED
>>284224768>>284229159Yeah, but Ryuki is like a tertiary character and I don't know...
>>284225235The man... with no 'principles'...
>give the medal to Koga>he makes it to the end by virtue of no-one knowing or caring he existsI beat the game.
Could they take Shen?
>>284224790>>284224811So Ohma would lose to any speed blitz character if they simply didn’t have “killing intent”
>>284230156Shinji... had a hard life.
>>284224655No fair keeping all the fun to himself
Could "he" take Shen?
>>284224726>>284224826>>284225065>>284225116>>284225546I don't understand, this was already rules patched, there is an explicit rule about who wins if the coin ends out of bounds meaning nobody is able to hold it anymore. This was just a few chapters ago, I feel like I'm going crazy. Muteba's plan had zero shot of working, it would end the coin 'time' at 2 hours, which is equal to ten eliminations. Meaning anyone who takes out more than ten people would overtake Ohma and win. Hell, Shen basically has four eliminations to his score right now since there's no way Yan won't just give over his points at the end if it calls for it. Five eliminations if we want to preemptively add the other supernova guy to his count.
>>284230440Sandro cares less about the rules than you so don't sweat it.He'll write whatever he wants to write and if it happens to be within the rules then good, if not he'll just handwave it away with a one sentence explanation afterwards.You could say the rules are left open to interpretation.
>>284230440In the same chapter he contradicts himself>if the coin is left behind the longest holder wins>unless he had less life points then that person winsSandro literally could have just done an island-wide free for all with all the fighters having a device to indicate their participation, super easy, but he writes himself into corners with pointless rules then acknowledges the stupidity of his writing because he thinks acknowledging something is bad is smart and makes it not bad
>>284230440>if we want to preemptively add the other supernova guy to his count.Here's how Silva can still win
WHO THE FUCK IS THIS? This can't be Luohan. His eyes look completely different.
Hassad soon.
>>284224838The best way this goes is either Ohma or Okubo goes in for the attack but Mutaba still doesn't pop his Killler Instinct and says something like "Nice moves you've gotten better, unfortunately I can't risk my paycheck or the world over a martial arts fight, have fun fighting the Conncetor though" and then just runs to the next area
>>284228514>A whole crossover chapter by Daro featuring TonegawaWeird crossover. Not many similarities to create something from, there's the gambling over fights but that has been a non-factor for a long time now.And don't they have different publishers?
>>284229159Sandro should just take a page from Toriyama's book and make Ohma not care, the pussyfooting is a bad look, he already threw his opportunity to escape away with Hushen.
>>284230680Are you saying that perhaps the real Luohan has been... replaced by a worm?Tiger Niko might be in danger...
>>284225065>and thought acknowledging the stupidity meant there wasn't anyI hate Sandro so much. He always comes off as so smug and insufferable when he does things like this. He probably was giggling to himself thinking how much he was a genius for shutting up critics.
>>284228514>AI generated mahjong tiles>Kaiji crying about losing all of his savings while Metsudo keeps calling him "awesome">Wholesomechungus Teiaidaring synthesis
Why not have fodder fight fodder as a way to ""clear up the road" to Shen.
>>284224356
>>284224471Asura bros, we are so back!
>>284224615Not even Ikkai? You mean, THE Ikkai? THE Onoda Ikkai who is on par with the legends?
>>284230775It only works with some assholish characters (Vegeta) combined with a world that doesn't take itself TOO seriously (Dragon world). Kengan is too serious and the characters have gotten too nice
>>284224726THAT'S NOT WHAT THE RULES SAID
>>284231042They've thought this through, haven't they?
>>284231042The flow of time is convoluted, with plot points chapters old phasing in and out.
Can someone summarize the story for me? I don't follow very closely
>>284231095Giant musclemen obsessed with being the strongest optimize an extremely esoteric JRPG meta system to fight as little as possible.
>>284230957Nice.
>>284230680Waluigi?
>>284224726>>284231042The rules got patched so much by this point I genuinely can't keep up. And we are only at the start!
>>284231090That was part of the explanation, if the coin was no longer in play. It's obvious the coin itself was a motivator to cause conflict. They said the person that destroys the coin will be disqualified. The effect of the coin's destruction means there is no longer a goal to actively search it each other for it and fight. So the only person that does know, is also the one that destroyed it will not be able to tell anyone else due to their self-elimination. The game continues because the coin itself is not a physical goal, but a motivator to have contestants fight each other as soon as possible.Remember there are people watching with money on this event, and no fights or eliminations happening will ruin the event.But here's the problem with this chapter. 1. The watch now tracks the coins location, which is basically an Air Tag at this point. 2. Nobody said anything about the game ending if the person with the coin doesn't make it to the next zone.
>>284231042Wasn't Yan part of the negotiations?Why did he let Kengan create such a rigged tournament against the Worm?
>>284224287OH FUCK IS SQUIDWARD
>>284231042>>284224726Call me retarded but I'm not seeing the contradiction here
>>284231253I think that whole chapter is just the characters not understanding the rules or were still unclear of the rules if not already forgot the rules. Which makes for some gaslighting potential when the actual event goes underway.
Why did we need a fucking compendium of rules anyway? Could he really not have written any other way of having a battle royale where Shen loses somehow?Hmm I think I answered my own question while writing this.
>>284231392Reread the chapter. It was only about the event rules.
Reminder that Koga's "fist eye" would have allowed him to detect Muteba's rush even with his "non violent intent".Therefore Koga > Ohma. The REAL protagonist will save the day.
>Koga
>>284226686Sandro is a master comedian, only he can come up with this shit.
>>2842314601. The person that reaches the goal and has the coin is the winner. 2. The person that destroys the coin is disqualified. 3. The game still continues after the coin been lost and the winner who reaches the goal is determined by opponents defeated.No one is required to keep the coin as there was no official explanation to what the coin holder can't do.Any additional rules not from the official briefing is fake news.
>>284231310Still shocked that Julius is up that high after the fucking THRASHING Agito gave himI guess some people never EVER learn
>>284231746The top odds were based on the results of the previous tournament.
>>284231815Still shocked that Lolong is that high up after the fucking RAPING Ohma give himI guess some people never EVER learn
>>284231334He was the one that asked what happened if the coin was destroyed or lost.
Here’s how this could have been fixedWhoever is left standing and is able to hit the griddy at the end wins
>>284231839Ohma didn't participate in the previous tournaments for like over 2 years.
Can someone "explain" this "plot" that feels like it meanders onwards and onwards without any sense that the protagonists have overcome struggles and have something to fight for instead of a boxing themed SoL?
>>284231839Ohma beat Rolon, his inferior brother. Lolong is still loose out there somewhere.
>>284224471>>284224494I remember a few weeks ago, someone said that it felt like Sandro had it out for the monk guy because of how one-sidedly he gets his shit kicked in but with this chapter I'm really feeling it now
>>284224726Someone should just destroy the stupid coin so we can stop talking about the stupid rules
>>284231859Did you already forget the rules?It means anyone can make it to the final area, and then the results will be determined by coin possession or body count. The final area, just like in the game Fortnight you play every day is all within visual range of the remaining participants. There will ether be a brawl for whoever has the coin, or to whoever wants to eliminate the person with the highest competing body count.This is like the third time it's been explained today. Everyone needs to Reread Chapter 327.
>>284232069Everyone is just confused. I think Sandro should have the next chapter reexplain them.
I still can't believe I'm trapped here in Sandro hell for a month till old geezer Itagaki decides to bless us lowly degenerates with the next chapter of Baki.
>>284231939Fortnight Arc
>>284232085Another rule chapter LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO (it will only add to the confusion)
>>284232087In fairness I don't think another chapter about Doppo becoming ethereal would have been much better.
>>284232085What Muteba said was a complete lie to distract his competitors, because to talk about the rules no one seemed to remember was enough to cause a distraction.A reminder Muteba is blind, so how can he read and navigate a digital touchscreen watch to find the coin tracking function?
Post it
>>284232283
>>284224249>2 characters i barely remembered started of the tournament>Nicholas fight that nobody asked for >2 characters I don't remember get lose this chapter>Muteba fight which could have been better against a worm character but it's a FUCKING NO KILLING TOURNAMENT ANYWAYSThis arc is setting up to be the holy fucking Grail of filler fights that literally do not matter and weren't asked for. Funny thing is I don't know if it's on purpose to drag the series out or not
>>284232423>Funny thing is I don't know if it's on purpose to drag the series out or notEveryone seemingly hates being involved in creating this manga, why do you think they're still carrying on?
The match would be a lot better if the Worm started off with the coin first.
>>284224816
>>284232582Because Sandro gets paid to roll out of bed 15 minutes before he needs to submit an outline that week, then he shits it out onto a napkin and hands it to Daro. If he wants to do overtime that week he'll kick Daro in the shins for half an hour and berate him for not drawing things exactly as they are written.Omega will last as long as possible so he can continue this lifestyle.
I've figured out the outline of this arc.>Jobber characters nobody gives a fuck about such as Kim Janggi, Onoda Ikkai, Justin Kitagawa etc anyone of that ilk are to be used up "fighting" and getting one-tapped by Shen or Yan>Purgatory fighters are to be used in designated 1v1's where they can job for the sake of another character>Kengan fighters will all easily defeat worms they come across and will all felate Ohma relentlessly the entire arc>Worms exist to job, that includes Gilbert Any questions?
>>284226686we’re getting too deep with the meme fusions
>>284230680>expecting on model kengan art in the big twenty five Count yourself lucky he has the right number of fingers.
>>284232582Kengan is their money makeSandro gets the funds he needs to work on any other manga, it's clear he puts "more" effort into SiR and Blue Ursus>inb4 some shit about waifufaggotryDaro doesn't have to try to draw because Sandro and Editor-san both equally do not care, so Daro can churn out some Ai backgrounds, Ai characters and call it a day. He's no danger of dying like a typical Mangaka because of thisEditor-san just sits by and let's Sandro do whatever while giving him occasional feedback that amounts to "Yea sure" and "Eh"
These threads are looking dire, we're in desperate need of a Luohan appearance to bring us back.

Why do you still read kengan and browse these threads if you hate them so much
>>284233226I'll leave that up to your interpretation.
>>284233226Because I care.
>>284233226
>>284224287is that Handsome squidward
>>284233226You've got it all wrong. I read the manga so I can enjoy the threads.
>>284233226I don't hate it. The writing and art is lazy and haphazard but it's not enough to make me hate a guy who isn't spiting me specificallyPlus the threads are fun, more enjoyable and far more tolerable than the Drama Queen threads
>>284224356Did Yan wot Wider?
>>284228514Wait, you got a sauce?
>>284233484It's the upcoming volume feature advertisement preview stuff. We're also getting Luohan fanservice dustcovers.
I just laughed for over a minute straight at how fucking stupid this has made me.
>>284233342> the Drama Queen threads QRD?
I just want to see Yujiro go through a humiliation ritual.
>>284233706>Anons insisting on making up theories that either completely ignore or directly go against the message of the story>No one wants to have a genuine discussion about the manga and anyone that tries to has to deal with guys who genuinely thought Shueisha was going to publish a BASED and REDPILLED MOON MAN manga>They now have a resident schizoI just want to talk about the story but it's nothing but "TAD" this and "BLOCKHEAD!" that
>>284233906I mean I'd like it if they DID publish that even if it makes no sense with what else they support but I'm not surprised to see it "evolving" and I'm not sure why people always cope
>>284234251I was personally hoping for a Serial Killer focused manga but we quickly got away from that after about 3 chapters.The main characters still kill Aliens but it's not with much thought put into "how" they do it
>>284233906>anyone that tries to has to deal with guys who genuinely thought Shueisha was going to publish a BASED and REDPILLED MOON MAN mangaAs soon as I saw that series, I instantly assumed it'd be Attack on Titan's successor in terms of cultivating soon to be "betrayed" readers here who'd just focus on the message not being "racism is BASED" in a mainstream published manga instead of the other blatant problems with it.
>>284224679Australia?
>>284224356Shen could lose due to points so that's kinda dumb
>>284234376>I instantly assumed it'd be Attack on Titan's successor in terms of cultivating soon to be "betrayed" readers here who'd just focus on the message not being "racism is BASED" in a mainstream published manga instead of the other blatant problems with it.It will but probably not to the same degree as Attack on Titan. The threads aren't 'that' active most of the time and it seems like hype died down for it after it's initially first few chapters after January
>>284230440The match ends if the coin is out of bounds.Also even if the match would continue they could do what Haruo says a feed ponts to Ohma.
>>284231310>Nobody said anything about the game ending if the person with the coin doesn't make it to the next zone.They did.>>284230570
At this point in the story, given their convoluted goals, what are the odds that the Worm revolves around an actual worm or worm-like animal, magical properties or not? Seriously
You guys are right, this has gotten way too confusing. I'd better take a couple more chapters here to go over the rules again once and for all so everything is clear.
We're four fights in and still no sign of BITCHrokiFucking supernovas and Kokuro has bigger balls
>>284235023Perhaps.
>>284235073I was thinking pic related
>>284234569Shen could just take all of Yan's points at basically any time though. I'm sure Yan would be more than willing to offer his points to Shen, and even if Shen wanted to take them fair for whatever reason he's more than strong enough.>>284234892The problem with the funnel all the points to Ohma idea is that it relies on Ohma not fighting Shen but deliberately avoiding him and just hiding and running away to run out the clock, which... does seem likely.The feeding someone all the points idea isn't bad per say, if you're solely focused on winning the match, but Ohma probably isn't a good choice for points holder.
>>284235041>Kuroki is such a protected character that any time he's not fighting Shen in opportune situations he's instantly a fraudShen should have beaten Kuroki instead of having this "Maybe next rematch" shtick
>>284235041Rihito and Falcon are fighting him like Ohma at the end of his training with Niko
>>284235308He's just gonna get one-tapped by Agito after making crazy faces while spouting jobberspeak
>>284235308Tiger Niko is currently screaming like a girl after seeing the monk get one shot.
>>284235308Luohans sidekick, he goes wherever Luohan goes and does whatever Luohan does. They should just get married already
>>284235308He's gonna coach the Kenganvengers on how to beat Shen, then when Shen gets taken out Tiger Niko will sedate his body, grab it and run away for a secret plot that Sandro definitely planned all along
>>284235308Self destructs fighting Agito after he uses divine demon x 100% Guihun.
>>284224838most based character so far
>>284226202>protagonistdoes autism come with copemaxx buffs?
>>284230156I might need to find out more first.But if Rino can't do it, it's not looking good yet.
I'm surprised Sandro remembered the Supernovas.Can someone explain to me what the fuck is up with them in Dragon Ball terms?
>>284235041>>284235211"The BBEG and the strongest good guy have a massive pre-final arc fight that ends in the villain winning to establish the level of stakes for the endgame" is a huge cliche, but it's one for a reason because it does its job well.But as usual Sandro is a massive fucking coward of a writer who wants the illusion of stakes with no commitment, so we have all these side characters stressing over this EPIC FINAL BATTLE training their asses off when Shen has never done anything that would really make them feel like that(and Ohma and co constantly sucking him off for being so heckin chill and nice doesn't help of course). Even if Sandro didn't want to kill off Kuroki because of his insane attachment to even the most minor named characters imaginable, he could have just had Shen pummel him into a coma in his excitement to have a bit of a challenge for once and that would have served fairly well too, but he won't even commit to that kind of thing.
>>284236091I don't know how to explain it in Dragonball terms, but they were originally introduced because Sandro needed to show that there were other rising stars on Koga's level and have them be potential rivals since there was no way he could hang with the Ashura boys yet so he needed his own entourage.The thing is Sandro realized he doesn't give a shit about writing Koga at all so instead of having them interact more they just job, and despite supposing to be Koga's rivals he's only fought two of them, and one of the fights was offscreen.
>>284236091They were just a poorly thought out idea by Sandro. He gave Koga more friends, but the cast is bloated enough as it is and it's hard to get any screentime in this manga. They're so underdeveloped they have no choice but to be jobbers, some don't even have movesets. I thought Leonardo was cool, but the rest don't really deserve to exist. There's no Dragon Ball equivalent because Toriyama doesn't stupidly bloat his cast like this. I guess the closest thing would be if Toriyama forced Gohan's highschool friends to be mainstays and they actually tried picking up martial arts to join the cast.
>>284236356He "struggled" against Leonardo "I get none of the benefits of being a Kure descendant" Silva and throttled Onoda "Sandro is pretending I'm not a gag character" IkkaiThis manga is such a good example of what happens to supporting characters when the writer doesn't care about the character they're suppose to be supporting
>>284236356>>284236391I meant more 'Explain why they just showed up out of nowhere after 500 chapters just to job to the equivalent of Dodoria' but thanks regardless.
>>284236356>>284236391Don't forget the fact that they're basically just a retread of the "new generation" fighters like Kokuro. Sandro literally did the same concept twice and squandered it both times. The only one that even SLIGHTLY deserves to exist is Leonardo, the others have the personality and relevance of a faceless AI generated mob extra.
>>284236472Onoda is so weird, Sandro just copy and pasted Okubo.
It's so funny how Ohma basically gives no fuck to the rule at all. Even Shen wants to know more about the rule. Ohma just going to waku-waku his way to the win isn't he?
Is there some kind of gag with Kim that I'm missing? He was brought up before the whole Supernova thing as an A-lister in Purgatory who could have taken someone's spot on team during KvP if they dropped out. Then when the Supernovas were revealed he had the best record out of all of them. And then he showed up with Okubo to support Justin for...some reason. But then he just never does anything.
>>284221627>comicGO BACK
>>284236762Another victim of Sandro's terminal ADHD bullshit. He wrote him up a character design/bio all the way back in KvP extras, so he was clearly conceptualized as a character very early, but didn't fight onscreen a single time.Sandro even practically laughed at the idea of it. Remember when he was in the berserker bowl and Sandro had him and Onoda cripple each other in the first round so that Kim had to drop out from injuries, which meant that fucking Mike Myers got to go to the quarterfinals for free and job to Rihito, instead of using Kim.
>>284236762...Kim?
>>284233342>Drama QueenYou made me realize I forgot to read the latest chapter, and reading the very first page felt like a slap to the face because this feels like something Sandro would write. I'm still quite enjoying Drama Queen though, probably my favorite of the last year
>>284224790Das racis
Umm actually why did Shen need 2 bodies (Ohma and Ryuki) again? Shouldn't Ohma enough for the Tiger vessel? Why Ryuki too?
>>284233342>it's not enough to make me hate a guy who isn't spiting me specificallyBased and sane
>>284236986One for Shen, one for his schizo parasitic twin brain.
>>284236986One body is for him, the other for the tiger. This was explained
>>284237030Why did Shen need a new body? His current one is not strong enough??
>>284237054How many levels of speedread and self-induced shizophrenia are you on? Do you remember any plot point or character motivation from the last 3 years? They're all stupid and retarded mind you, but still.
>>284237054He is not immortal yet, he needs a new body to enjoy life and fighting for longer
>>284237102Seems like a massive downgrade going from the current one to Ryuki LMAO
>>284233342I remember getting dogpiled on at the start because I dared to say the forced le racist shock value wouldn't last and it'll end up as just another mediocre mangaPeople who jumped on the bandwagon back then just because it's le redpill manga (aka mostly "people" from "that" board) are either delusional or severely retarded
>>284237143That's why he was angry back thenREMEMBER THAT? THAT MOMENT??REMEMBER KOGA??? REMEMBER THE DEEP LAYERS OF THE INSIDE, THE AMERICANS AND ALL THE AFRICANS????Do you remember Hassad?
>>284224838>running the risk of fighting "eye gouge crushes your balls" manthis plan is retarded because of all the rules shit already but Ohma shouldn't be WAKKU WAKKUing right now if his goal is to get a good fight from Shen
Why did Sandro write off Kiryu like that? I need more of my gay twink boy to humiliate Niko.
>>284237143Doesn't really matter when apparently none of his strength is from his body, just knowing how to tuck in his elbow at just the right angle.>>284237229Shen being angry there makes no sense now frankly and was never called back to again, nothing related to the potential hijacking of Ryuki like that or Naidan makes sense now that Sandro decided to go with the plan being "brain surgery in like 50 years".If Ryuki isn't being brainwashed, then Naidan testing his killing intent is pointless because he doesn't need to have specific tendencies to help it along or anything. And Ryuki losing a fight to Koga also means nothing because Shen will transfer his principle magic to the body anyway.
>>284237595he sleepy
>>284237595>Why did Sandro writeWe just don't know.
>>284232786kek
Koga and Ryuki jerkin off in some bushes right now
>>284233310Japan has so many powerful people and companies.The motivations for the characters is so palpable and obvious and clear!The dangers and risks and negative outcomes are so explicit, it's like I feel it on every page!
>Sandro when he realizes he is running out of Supernovas and will soon have to make the Kenganvengers fight each other
>>284237778that's why he introduced 16 masked jobbers
>>284229159>Ryukiwho?
>>284237439You're absolutely crazy if you think Muteba is even remotely a threat to Ohma right now. Muteba is "smart" but he only got as far as he did in the KAT because of the opponents he got matched with.>First fight was against a retard that didn't defend himself at all and practically let himself get killed. Got lucky that he was blind already or he would have been crippled for the rest of the tournament>Second fight was against the guy whose whole gimmick was also not defending against anything. Was getting mostly overpowered and had to rely on feigning helplessness and Seki being honorable and letting his guard down. Got fucking crippled even more but again was lucky that his sponsor happened to be an insane shark lady that was able to give him cyborg upgrades>Wakatsuki went into the match blind in one eye and even then he had to keep taking his distance so Waka couldn't land a clean hit. Despite stabbing him in the neck and not taking the full blow of his attack he "AIEEEEEEEE'D" and gave up once it became apparent there was a real possibility of getting his shit slapped and coped by going "H-heh, I'm not actually a fighter...">Offscreened by Tiger NikoHis only chance here is if Ohma actually lets Okubo fight him instead of just instantly sleeping him like he did with Jurota.
>>28423779416??? I know there are 9 numbers +2 funny names?
>>284237813>JurotaSandro...
>>284237906I meant Nitoku. I don't know why I said Jurota. I guess they're both kind of big guys.
So the worms are going out of their way to avoid starting fights and the kenganvengers are going out of their ways to honorably 1v1 and Louhan's """men""" are so few they can only at best 1v1Did I get that right?This battle royale will involve matches exclusively suitable for a tournament?
Meanwhile on the other side of Ganryu Island...
>>284231392Here >>284231042 they stated that if the coin is lost, the person with the most LP will win. Coin is no longer a factorBut now >>284224726 if they get rid of the coin, the one that held the coin for the longest time will winNothing makes sense anymore
Rule patches will continue until attitude improves
TURN ON CNN THEY PATCHED THE PRINCIPLES
>>284239213HOLY SHIT!!!THEY NERFED PRINCIPLE DAMAGE BY WHOLE 500%???
>>284238914It's not actually contradictory, I just don't know if Muteba is deliberately misrepresenting the situation or if he forgot about the LP system.Or rather, Muteba is technically correct in his statement, that if the medal is left behind in a closed area, the one who held it the longest will be declared the winner. The issue is that LP counts as 'time spent holding the medal', with every 5 lps equaling an hour of time.In other words, Ohma, having held the medal for about 2 hours, and with his own life point, has a 'time' of about 2 hours and 12 minutes. Shen on the other hand, with his 3 life points, has a 'time' of 36 minutes, despite never holding the coin.Or if it's easier, you can think of it the other way; Ohma has passively earned 10 lp simply by holding onto the coin for 2 hours.As Yan said, they've thought this through. At least, that's what I thought, before Muteba made his stupid statement this chapter, forcing me to wonder if Muteba is being tricky, Muteba made a mistake, or if Sandro actually just forgot his own rules he set for the tournament because I can't write that option off.
>>284224816WATER RESISTANCE IS HUGE!
>>284237215>People who jumped on the bandwagon back then just because it's le redpill manga (aka mostly "people" from "that" board) are either delusional or severely retardedBoth. People are still suggesting that Noma is only a massive bitch because she ate too many Aliens and not because being a massive bitch is her base personality, the Noma we saw in chapter 1 was just a Noma that hadn't given up yet>>284237813Sandro is pretty insistent on Muteba not being a Fighter for some reason when his tool kit is full of pragmatic techniques
>>284239213>giving principles to julius bold, but intriguing
>>284224833Manga might be shit, thread might be losing anons but at least the edits are still golden
Remember Gaolang?
>>284239657He's "scaling", but as long as he's perma-hexed by his own employer, he'll never be "unfathomable".
>>28422483310/10
>>284224833Quality post.
>>284224287It's HIM
>>284224636Are his tattoos smaller now?
>>284227888Sure, but is he actually expecting to be able to not only defeat a completely unharmed Ohma, but then also evade or defeat everyone else on the island for the full duration of the battle royale? This is the guy who backed out of his last three fights.
>>284241024Maybe. You can't expect Daro's "assistant" to remember that kind of detail.
>>284224811Muteba got too cocky and hexed himself here.He's gonna get 1HKO'd when doing another no killing intent rush with a dialogue that fades halfway through.
>>284224790niggers always stealing things
>>284241440He actually semihex Ohma (you've improved) but also downplayed him (not work without killing intent). It's a rookie mistake since it leaves room for Ohma to "scale" and "overcome" his "weakness". The correct move would be>If Okubo distracted you for 0.01s shorter I would've lost
>>284235039Look at this smug motherfucker. He knows he's full of shit.
>>284241440>>284241896However... what if this is Muteba's plan all along? Perhaps his intent to help Ohma win was genuine, and this is a 4D chess sacrifice play to give Ohma a heaping load of Morality Mana by rejecting his offer to win by underhanded means, and then allowing him said opportunity to "scale" by purposely leaving that loophole in his hex? Muteba, what a man you are...
>>284226202>WhenIf

>>284242503Wrong sentiment, "me."The joke was that Sandro doesn't remember those things either
>>284237439those things only happen to jobbers, neither Ohma or Okubo are going to get their balls crushed or eye gouged so this fight is completely pointless
Okubo will win by showing off his mastered "just hold your breath" move

I don't know about you lads but so far the battle royale has at birthed some funny memes, unlike the previous 2 years or agony
