>>284420715I wonder if dead warsman and neptuneman are confused looking at this
>>284420764Jesus, did he put fucking Broly in this
>>284420647Hey, it's Bibimba!
>>284420741>>284420764We were about to witness an animal moment.
>>284420791Close
>>284420843Kid, what the FUCK does that mean?
>>284420790AN OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCE?!
>>284420816Here we go again.>Warsman fucking DIED!>But here's here now!>Which proves that time travel isn't real!
>>284420816Suguru just keeps on getting more schizo. Next he'll talk about how the choujin graveyard is nothing but a great conspiracy.
>>284420895Maybe it's a poorly translated joke.Like calling him a meathead.
>>284420951To be fair, he doesn't know about the Chojin Graveyard at this point
>>284420998Eeeeeh, it's Buffaloman. The guy's fickle.
>>284421017Natsuko looks so sweet in that panel.
>>284421102Yeah I don't see any surprises in here.I guess the Disasters vs. Neptunemania remains a toss-up for the semis.
>>284421017>so who will the 10th team to enter the last boxBut there are 8 teams left? Am I stupid or is this just a translation error.
>>284421147>Mantaro begging for his lifelmao
>>284421146There's probably no pages without something stupid in the translation.
>>284421147>>284421168I spent a lot of time debating whether or not to stitch these two pages
>>284421308>>284421334OH SHITOOOOOOOOOH SHIT
it's icecubeman
>>284420816>That Warsman can't possibly be alive!Is Weekend At Bernie's even out yet?
>Neptuneman vs MammothmanI have unironically no idea how is this going to go and I'm pissed it's conveniently the last matchup
>>284421446>eats random shit off the floor>gufufu, of course>*starts bleeding from the mouth*>That is definitely glass shards
>>284421017I imagine she's the only one believing it since it confirms Terry marries her
Lately, I've been into the whole Stay Gold family of horsesYou have no idea how much I laughed when I learned that Gold Ship was called the Unsinkable Battleship
>>284421527ENTER
>>284421527How can humans compete with that?
>>284421571Damnit, dramatic rain! Not the time!
>>284421549I think is safer to say that Rinko Roxanne is Mari's biological mother with kinnikuman and all of the adoption story was fake to protect mantaro and suguru from the truth, there is no explanation of why she loves wrestling.
>>284420647>Mari holding her daughter>Bibimba holding her daughter-in-lawPerfect.
>>284421527I know right? Kinnikuman has ruined my view of so many things its surreal.
>>284421588RINKO CHANGED SIDES AND JOINED THE FAMILY DRAMA LEAGUE
Once we're done, we should do a tier list and include Neptuneman (Crisis de la Mediana Edad) in it
>>284420741>>284420764Neptuneman: Master gaslighter/shittalker Hahaha
>>284421647BY JACQUELINE...
>>284421664...that does sound fucking delicious...
>>284421664I've missed this Suguru
>>284421102Surely it won't a double bad guys victory here.
>>284421664>Instantly mellows out and reverts to his goofy selfChoujin pussy is too good bros
The other day, out of boredom, I added "I've got a plan and I'm gonna whip it out" as a cathphrase to Mantaro in TV Tropes
>>284421239Lighting really likes to pose like Spiderman.
>>284420980Time for Mantaro to finally throw out those Ramenman moves.
>>284421446>Yep>That's crack, alright.
>>284421710The john does traced this
>>284421755Have you considered asking giant flying talking heads to seal his soul in another dimension?
>>284421731>My Easter Analysis suggests Kinnikuman can somehow clean up a muddy river. The exact mechanics are as yet unknown.
>>284421260Twenty million powers are the perfect "trainers" to make sure the New Muscle Brothers are "ready"It's their sink or swim moment to see if they can perfect their teamwork
>>284421787General Devil does sound dumbAnd it's not even about translating itDevil General would sound better
>>284421847I can't believe they found out Suguru gets scared of literally everything... such terrifying analysis skill...
>>284421847>Susceptible to loss of limbs after a single gunshot wound. What a loser.
>>284421710>>284421731>>284421755>>284421787>>284421814>>284421847>>284421872>>284421904I always felt that this entire sequence was just filler. You could remove it and nothing of value is really lost. I guess it loredumps a bit for people who didn't read the original series but eeeeeh even then. Feels unnecessary
>>284420764>aww they want to play
Gonna go buy some groceries real quickWill tell you how fighting Okan goes
>>284421385It's obviously Seuichin even further in the future
>>284421527Yes!I've been waiting for a Mcfly moment.
>>284421993https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyPZtWqktzs
>>284421508Out of the way before Stacy, Mari>>284421527ENTER How I missed 80s ponytail Bibimba
>>284421993A Seichuin from a timeline where he remained a Justice Choujin and is battling with Perfect Seichuin for his own soul. Winner becomes the "real" Seichuin
>>284421664The heat of the gyudon cooks the egg!
>>284421993>It's obviously Seuichin even further in the futureHe's such a good boy
>>284420872>Even Harabote has had enough of Suguru's shit
>>284421549YABBA DABBA DOO
>>284421847To be fair, this is the height of intelligence for the choujin race.
>>284421334oh shit its crystalman
>>284421664One of the oddest details of kinnikuman I didn't notice until a crossover pointed it outKinnikuman doesn't get his gyuudon with broth
>>284421285I see what you did there, translators.
>>284421993Now that you said it, I hope this will eventually become a thing.
Survived Okan
>>284421527mantaro is going to have a hard time against freudman
>>284422360>>284422381>we'll use their kindness against them!Nooo that's like drowning a fish using water!
>>284422422Kinda wish the villains were just a little smarter sometimes, because justice chojin do have horrible weaknesses at times that are never exploited, which are very rarely used strategically Gaslight kinnikuman during the match that terryman is tricking him somehow, he'll instantly buy it for no reason, and then kinnikuman will be weighed down by the iron sand and unable to fight. Because justice chojin are not allowed to doubt or hate each other without the sand inside their bodies making them immobile
fuck not this
>>284421610kek
>>284422480>neptunemania sabotaged them without even caring tokek
>>284422516Dude, Geronimo was able to put the hurt on sunshine
>>284422480It's the small things that make Neptuneman such a loveable heel
>>284422516>Hmm, I could insert that mysterious key into my clearly I human head wound >No, no I must be human
>>284422527And it was downhill ever since...

>>284422698>>284422714ENTER OUR TRUE HEROES
I always love it when characters realize they were not alone as they thought
>>284421527Been reading Ring ni Kakero and I swear, Kurumada would occasionally draw Kiku like this too.
>>284422579Chaos needed therapy from the beginning. WTF this is totally the nun's fault.
>>284421549Mari immediately leaves when Bibinba shows up...You had your chance and you push Suguru away. Now live with it!
>>284422769Man, I really gotta get back to RnK, I started it years ago but stopped some time around the first tournament
>>284422698>>284422714I didn't expect this. What good guys.
>beefman and taneman defeatedYeah it's over for the 20 million powers
>>284422714OUR FUCKING HEROES
>>284422775>Robin Mice already outKEK
>>284422955>You haven't been yourself lately, Suguru, if I were to be honest. More nervous than usual.>Also why are you hiding a knife behind your back?
>>284422987.....Ok, are the Carpet Bombings just gonna be in that pose all the goddamn time?
>>284422987What the fuck are you RETARDS doing
>>284423030That's, uh, an unfortunate frame to choose to draw for Andre the Giant and Stan Hansen
>>284423070Guy who got the cheap seats: HAHAHAHA..FUCK YOU, FRONT ROW..IT'S MY TIME!
>>284423070Oh yeah somebody might get thrown out of the ring today!

>>284420980>Warsman vs Hollywood Neptuneman>Buffaloman/Mongolman vs Mantaro/Great IIILETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>284422987I'm kinda loving this bit
>>284422987>So uh>how do we get down from here
>>284421446I don't give a shit about anything other than this match. Shit is gonna be FIRE
>>284421527>>284421610>Best Uma >Best memeShame she can't tank a cross bomber like her namesake Robin
>>284421847>That Terryman outfitLeather bars two doors down
>>284423336Fuck you.
>>284423277That's the thing with these tournaments, matches do get better each round. First few rounds are more about ironing out the kinks in each team, or teams showing what their skills are or how they can work together, or having them job to show off another team. First few matches are basically practice.But the semi finals and finals you've already seen them work out the kinks and show their abilities, that's when its time to just put their 100% against the enemies 100% to see who's truly better. Its only once they've both used all their abilities that a fight can really begin sometimes.
>>284421102This seeding is stupid
>>284423103Underrated
>>284423373Man I know the next fights are all gonna be great but I'm all in on Neptunemania BROTHER. Fucker has completely overshadowed the actual arc villains, he and Seichuin are RUNNIN WILD
>>284422987>>284423005just noticed now those fuckers ''talk'' like some Kengan character
>>284423610HEYHE'S SUPPOSED TO LEARN THAT FROM ATARU
>>284423583>pretending he didn't have the power to say no>pretending he didn't look smug five minutes ago by the idea of Kinnikuman dying

>>284423722bitchy, salty Rinko
>>284423763ngl I'm liking all of these Oh Yeahs! from the 80s gen
>>284423700Yeah, Mayumi. Sorry...it's early morning.
>>284423810>>284423824Imagine if new time choujin appeared at that second and pushed away Terry's handShow's over folks!
>>284423867No problem, brother. Considering Harabote's interactions with her, it wasn't a bad choice either.
>>284423842First we attack his heart
>>284423900How are they so confident...in jobbing?
>>284423970"Pay attention to the losers, Brother Seichy!"
>>284423952>i-if that were me...yeah we get it Thunder you guys are the main villains
>>284423990Mantaro is just trying to be more thorough..he's fighting his master after all.
>>284423979>>284423990love these assholes lol
>>284423979Mantaro can you stop being a cunt to the people trying to help you
>>284424002kwab
>>284423970IT HAS LITERALLY NEVER BEEN KNOWN AS THE GEM OF GEMS BEFORE THIS VOLUME
Lemme guess, he gave back Buffaloman's horn?
>>284424109You've got a good memory anon; that's likely it.
>>284424076>Ortega wins the power match up, for some reason he instantly lets go of the hold and jumps back into the ropesodd
>Knows he's in a bad position>It would be smarter to let terry go first, and to jump in when he's ready>But instead he demands to go first just to front like he isn't in a bad position by playing toughThis guy's a liabilityIt would be worse if Terry wasn't the exact same sort of retard, who when his wooden leg was breaking down he exclusively started using kicking techniques against Justiceman
>>284424176Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, baker's man
>>284424194Damn, he got Kinnikuman with the psychological games
>>284424237Calm down.
>>284424109...Which is odd..he supposed to give the horn back during the Thrones arc during Team Soldier vs Team Phoenix.
>>284423634How long can Ohma survive against Hollywood Neptuneman ?
>>284424261THAT'S your breaking point for all the shit they've altered so far?
this fight pisses me off, mainly because it stacks multiple layers of drama and convolution and Suguru comes off worse in each one
>>284424305Well, they had to do something to make it look like it mattered, given what the other matches are like
>>284424280It was a pivotal moment, the turning point of Buffalo vs Hard Carry
Mental health tag tournament, I am right?
>>284424315He's using the Ray Mysterio
>>284424269can see Neptuneman coming out of nowhere and picking Haruo as his new teammate.
Everyone in this tournament is using fake skin to mask injuries
>>284424361Dude ow
>>284424361I was worried we were gonna go a whole thread without some Nisei gore.
>>284424161>it’s not like suguru to be taken by surprise
>>284424444>lands "one" attack the entire match after screaming for ten minutes>"Yep, this is why they're the greatest in the entire world"Commentary just ain't reflecting reality here
>>284424194The Hercules Factory should have had a gaslight-mental hardiness class. The mental game is underrated in Kinnikuman.
>>284424477>Suguru sacrificed his arm so mantaro could get his ass beaten harder
>>284424361Fucking OUCH
>>284424604no homo?
>>284424590>I have never once entered a ring where I thought I'd be defeatedLOL
>>284424627>bombe gave his life for this
>>284424590>I have never once entered a ring where I thought I'd be defeated!PSYCHOguru has evolved into AMNESIAguru
do you think the fallout from these developments is what led to most of the love interests taking the backseat in the revival
>>284424590There's never been a bigger liar
>>284424614>shows Buffaloman under sedation for surgery>>284424627>reveals the horn hasn't yet been inserted???
>>284424696They had to knock him out so he wouldn't destroy the entire operating room in protest.
>>284424681Kinnikuman was never about women, even if its unintentional making the story about women just makes it about drama, romance drama, relationship drama, and not the regular match style friendship drama. Its a story about men's friendship. For some reason stories about males friendship don't tend to work if women are involved heavily.It sounds negative, but the biggest reason the love interests existed was so there could be a legacy, so there could be a sequel with kids. Like any other series when a guy is having trouble in a fight, he thinks about his love interest, and he gets a burst of power. But Kinnikuman is a series where Kinnikuman thinks about his friends and gets power. There's an odd purity about it.
>>284424792>Like any other series when a guy is having trouble in a fight, he thinks about his love interest, and he gets a burst of power. But Kinnikuman is a series where Kinnikuman thinks about his friends and gets powerAnon, you can't seriously think this is exclusive to Kinnikuman
>>284424807Its different when its Kinnikuman, because women basically don't exist at all. Its a story about men thinking about only other men, but not in a gay way.
>>284424826Alright, anon, let's do thisName five Shonen where the protagonists get power from thinking about their love interests
>>284424852Uhh there was once or twice in Rurouni Kenshin
I think Hokuto no Ken is the *one* major shonen where romance is effectively a main motivation of somehow every single fucking character in the wasteland. Maybe Yu Yu Hakusho too? Both Yusuke & Kuwabara got the "get a fuckhuge powerup once their crush is threatened".
>>284424852Gash bell when Kiyo chose to die against that lion dude he kept thinking about Suzy, not sure he really got power from that though
>>284424807Problem is, Friendship Power IS an actual power chojin can tap into, not just a by-word for the writer deciding the protagonist gets his heat backFriendship Power requires the chojin to form meaningful bonds with other chojin to tap on each-other's Chojin Kyodo and boost their own, an ability that only came about once Suguru rose up in the card and began to befriend the likes of Terryman, Ramenman and others
>>284424917And then Yuria's ghost helped Bat with his fucking insanity in the last arc
>>284424864
>>284424942QUICK SUGURUREMEMBER YOUR GRADIUS 1CC
>>284424912>>284424925Terry deserves to be back in the top 10 favorite characters poll.
>>284424912>t-tanked that btw
>>284424955Anon, Gradius came out in 1985
>>284424973If it worked against Justiceman it can work against ANYBODY
>>284424957Watch out, he's using the Ashura special
Man, these two are really just Discount Sunshine and Ashuraman
>>284424957>>284424984One dude inside another dude has gotten very popular lately...
>>284425006"THESE FUCKERS STOLE OUR TECHNIQUES WORD FOR WORD"
>>284425039I miss the days when Neptuneman used the Robin Special 10x more than Robin ever used it
>>284425039>STOLEthat's the pot calling the kettle black from the "Ashura Buster" creator
>>284425085Boy, suguru wants terry to touch him badly
so what was their plan if they fought anyone else besides these two
This part was good
>>284425155...Moais can do that?
Rather die than tell a lie
>>284425155Now we know the real purpose behind moai
>>284425190Jus like George washington
>>284425192lol getting his woman involved? These guys truly fight dirty>>284425218oh shit
>>284425192>hates rice but has yellow fever
>>284425272Bye terry the kid
Done for todayCome back tomorrow to see if the Machineguns can beat these guysOkay, nobody expects them to lose, but it would be real funny if it happened
>>284425285Thanks, OP.
>only reason this fight is even happening is because both Suguru & Terry are stacking every disadvantage under the sun on purposeHard to feel invested desu
>>284425926Only reason its happening is because they got off way too easy not having a fight last round, and they needed at least one round where they get knocked around like retards before they have an actual serious fight later on. First round for everyone is a humiliation ritual, even Robin Mask floundered around while Kid did all the fighting because he kept looking at Kevin.
>>284425926Honestly, feels like padding considering that we know the Machineguns winning this considering that Moaidon and Ortega are basically randos (who I think should've been the ones in the first round.)
>>284425926That means their next round will be a lot more interesting. I suspect the reason why Yude hyped Hells Expansions vs Hells Bears so much is to help offset the predictability of this fight. They're telling the reader to keep reading; kino will be here soon.
>>284425285Thanks OPI wanted this to be a normal fight so Kid and Mantaro could see their parents at their prime
>>284421549All I can think about is this meme
>>284423722Human rostie seething over superior choujin stacy
>>284423722Is the big drama this arc Rinko hating on Bib since she got the Kinniku dick and not her mom? Then she tries to gaslight Mantaro into hating his mother?Jacqueline is already objectively the best next gen girl. Don't make it worse
>>284422440>titleI'm mr. lonely...
>>284422579That's depressing but he has to face it.
>>284422728>>284422751Bros...
>>284422669You're looking at it from the wrong angle, Chaos.
>>284422868Dawww, look at him with his little lady.
>>284422987>>284423005Were they waiting out there all this time?
>>284423103
>>284423106Even Mayumi is distressed.
>>284423636>>284423731Suguru's hatred for the new gens is so strong it pushed his character development two arcs ahead.
>>284423722Those shorts are criminal!
>>284423795>No special outfitsThey deserve to lose for the lack of style.
>>284423952Every venue has that one audience member who takes it too far with throwing things.
>>284424085Oh no, this anon is suffering from the timeline changing!
>>284424002Ramenman is merciless.
>>284424161Ominous thumbs up.
>>284424247Smartaro
>>284424361That's some awful stitching.
>>284424559Kek
>>284424590
>>284424604
>>284425144>GameSatan Cross bros, we are back!
>>284430525I mean, did you see that back-alley surgeon they went to?
>>284425168>>284425192Based.Never lie about your favorite food
>>284425272That's one terrified Natsuko.
>>284423763Takamura TRACED this
>>284425285Thx mate.
>>284424085Don't worry, it's a new title because this is their first match after winning the previous tournament.
>>284425130moai urinal mode
>>284424604Where the hell is THIS Suguru for the rest of this arc?
>>284432786He only has schizophrenic moments about time travel.Which is to say, everything except this match.
>>284432786only after he discovers that mantaro is his son, and this is where terryman and natsuko discovers that kid is theirs.there is the fact that rinko really feels like she was going to be revealed to be his bastard daughter with maki
>>284430014In an indirect way she is seething that Mantaro exists. It would have been better if they brought the gyaru back in time instead and have her sync with Natsuko over Kid.
>>284430014Jacqueline is literally Stephanie McMahon anon
Never Ever return of Nisei timeline where Terry the Kid finally finishes his story.
>>284430525>>284430724For some god forsaken reason, Suguru decided to pick the shadiest, poorest surgeon imaginable to do a last-minute surgery instead of just going to a normal hospital. What's next, asking Black Jack to cure a japanese cold?
I fucking hate those new gen fakers so much it's unreal!!!
>>284436854Suguru...
Does Nisei deserve the hate?
>>284438748Nisei hate was deserved because Yudetamago was on a bad shape and the two projected on the manga.Thank god by the time the other Nisei comic with Fiona came in, it felt like a OG kinnikuman comic.Which i hope OP covers once nisei ends as a special bonus.
>>284439505Isn't that Nisei all out?We did that ages ago
>>284439517then i lost the threads
>>284438748It's more mismanaged than bad desuUTag already got considerably better just by adressing obvious problems with Nisei so it's not like Yude *isn't* aware of what's wrong with it
>>284439539I can't remember what order we went in at this point, I think it wasOriginal -> Bunch of side stories -> Revival -> Nisei -> Nisei all out -> Maybe more side stories, i dunno -> Time travel tag arc
>>284439615https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/277968692/#277968719here's a random desuarchive thread with all the old thread numbers
>>284439615Nah, All-Out was before Nisei.
>>284439615Which again it may had been during the schizojanny periods from /pw/ banning people everywhere for mentioning a certain individual there And i covering Energon universe storytimes at /co/, which by the way good lord, being Thundercracker is suffering in this latest issue and kirkman nailed his og bio right
>>284439615Doing the first half of the Revival, Time Tag Tournament, and the second half of Revival works out pretty well in an odd way.Spoilers btw
>>284438748Yes. Everything was too mean spirited.
