Hopefully (current year) doesn't hurt our chances, but considering he still posts naked drawings of Shigure or full res illustrations, I'm liking our odds. Especially since this won't be in the Weekly Shounen Sunday magazine proper, maybe he can get away with more.

Kenichi was one of those manga I read for the story and not the girls. I thought the Miu romance was cute and the concept of fighting masters was cool. No clue why they axed it the way they did. I honestly feel it could have been the next Fairy Tail if they kept it going.

Shigure already was the weakest master but her being consistently molested and stripped in the new series might be the killshot this series needs.
>>
>>285635890
It's better than average on a normal day, with some really good stuff at times.
It was cool seeing Kenichi actually train and gradually progress, no power boosts or time-skips, closest thing is when he has a subconscious breakthrough and starts to blend his styles in the heat of battle.

It was dumb to get cancelled like that but it is undeniable Matsuena started dragging off hard, Kenichi was running for over 500 chapters and for a while there was prospect whatsoever of Kenichi moving past his intermediate disciple status nor an actual road map for Yami's downfall.

Then everything wraps in three chapters becuase Matsuena got taken by surprise with the cancelation.

Her and her students got ambushed by the bad guy's weapon division. She sacrificed herself so that her students could escape. While she's out cold and was about to be executed, they realized that she's a master blacksmith that could make them weapons.

So she was captured and forced to make weapons for them, though she purposely designed them to break easily.

As to why she's naked, it's because she can turn anything into a weapon, as a master class. So, for precautionary (and fanservice) they strip her naked throughout her capture (which was the whole final arc).

She didn't get to escape bur she manages to send a distress signal to get her friends to help her out
>>
literally everyone wanted Kenichi to fuck Shigure, but Matsuena refused to let that happen because she's his waifu and he didn't want to share her with anyone
personally I'll never forgive him for making Kenichi fob the loli onto the judofaggot that didn't deserve any of his girls

Eh...his latest work was the only one that has next to no fanservice but 008 had a proportionate amount of ass shots and tits since the main heroine frequently wore skin tight suits. Doubt he'll do something to the level of Shigure and every female character getting stripped down in the final battle but he hasn't gone soft just yet.
>>
>>285637907
>literally everyone wanted Kenichi to fuck Shigure
YOU wanted to fuck Shigure, and so did I.

Kenichi and Shigure would mever happen, and I'm actually glad Kenichi was written like a solid dude with a set goal, he never wavered, always dead locked on Miu and even started to outright show to Ranka she was annoying him, not seducing him.

No worries anon. As for that scene, she realizes in another scene (pic related) that she's so far away from the main land, so escaping is near impossible.

So she went to the main radio control room to send a distress signal to her friends, this scene >>285637093 is her sending out the coordinates

>>285635890
The series started out pretty good with the MC slowly improve himself but later on the series had too much fanservice.
>But fanservice is good...
Not in this case as the fanservice mainly use for comedy which resulting in every fights with female characters in it turned into comedy with their clothes flying off constantly so there no tension in all of the fight with female characters.
There was also the lack of end goal. The series introduce a bunch of bad martial artists called Yami and the MC need to fight all of the evil disciplines but then once that finished, the series introduced Yami 2.0 this-time-with-weapons who had barely any characters and presence. Then Kennich fought the last evil discipline guy who he literally never met before until that fight despite the character was introduced over 300 chapters ago. This is baffling because Kenichi actually has relationship and interaction with every other Yami disciplines except the final boss guy
>>
>>285638001
there's 0 reason why a MC from a fanservice show can't fuck more than 1 heroine. this is not some super serious shonen. is ass + tits + beating bad guys

I think there's a difference in skin tight body suits and full on nudity. Part of the appeal of skin tight is the act of taking it off.

It's different anon. While the body suit is hot and all, the lack of actually nudity and hot scenario is what's lacking from Kimi wa 008. Kenichi had the Miu and Shigure capture, while 008 had none of that. Plus, aside from Ayane and the teacher, none of the other girls were even interesting, which is not great.

>Doubt he'll do something to the level of Shigure and every female character getting stripped down in the final battle but he hasn't gone soft just yet.

The reason the author keeps getting axed is that he makes weird martial arts manga with shitty male protagonists. The author should watch some Jackie Chan movies, if he wants to know how to make a likeable male protagonist in a martial arts story.

Not officially, but it's another uncensored version of the actual manga page. In the manga, Ma Kensei had a perverted delusion where he was describing what might be happening to Shigure while she's captured.

It was so heavily obscured so you can't make the details but it's clear that it was done in such a way so that the chapter could be published. Here's another version of the uncensored page.

I'll see if I can find the actual manga page

That would be great, it is criminal how many good girls have(or not even have) so many subpar doujins due to the era they appeared, as the Toradora doujins showed there is so much potential.

Flip side to that is the unfortunate fact that we live in the era where H doujinshi are dominated by gacha shit, so even if an anime does happen there's no real guarantee a good artist will take the time to make one.

>>
>>285635713
Hopefully Matsuena has a better sense of progression this time around.

Every time I felt sad over Kenichi's cancelation I remember it had 557 chapters, 61 volumes to tell its story, Matsuena was a victim of editorial shake-up yes, but also of his own hubris, by the last hundred plus chapters you can tell Matsuena thought the series would run for as long as he could make it out so he started extending the conflict to an undetermined conclusion and Kenichi was left stalled in his real advancement as a disciple ever since learning seikei from Hayato.
>>
I honestly think the prototype version of kenichi did some things better than the final version
for one thing, Kenichi wasn't a white knight who refused to hit girls in it
>>
I don't think this sequel will last long because the only unfinished business is Miu getting revenge on her father for supposedly murdering her mother and Kenichi defeating Elder before he could propose to Miu. However, there is also the possibility of Elder getting revenge for his dead daughter by killing his former son-in-law

No one's going to mention how Kenichi had a surprisingly really decent cast that they built up with that alien dude making a club that all went to shit after it went full Masters arc which made anyone not master level useless.

>>285635713
Holy fucking shit I just heard the news. I get to see my husbando again!
>>
>>285641931
Becuase there's a group of people that really like the masters and don't mind that, but yes the masters being elevated to actual forefront fighters, rather than wild cards that saved Kenichi at the last second, was the point where much of Kenichi's pals took the backseat and Kenichi himself seemed stuck at a certain level for a really long time, his masters becoming main characters as well contributed to much of the progression halting.

It ended with them stopping the evil org; MC's dad coming back from his top secret mission, and MC + Teenager Shigure dating. No fast forward like Kenichi but it's pretty obvious they're gonna fuck

>>285635713
I have no reason to be excited for this, Matsuena is incredibly washed and the last 100 chapters of Kenichi were bad. I hate that nobody can let go of anything anymore and we keep getting unnecessary sequels for nostalgia's sake

Pretty solid for me as a battle shounen. There is a lot of fanservice, so this might turn you off, but there is alot of good moments too. Pic related are the best characters by far.

did shigure have any major fights?
I can only remember her fighting jobbers.

>>285644267
No

>>285635890
>is the manga good?
Yeah. I liked the comedy and all of the training (I love training arcs). You get to see Kenichi and to a lesser extent his buds slowly get stronger.
>or is the fanservice the only thing people liked?
Seemingly I'm not alone in thinking that when the fanservice got ramped up it weakened the manga. That was hundreds of chapters in though.
>>
>>285644942
I think it was mostly jobbers. It's the sucky part of being the only weapon user among a group of unarmed fighters.

No, the spy manga ended naturally, the fact you don't know he put another series after that, and was the one whicb got axed instead, shows much of a fumble it was. Matsuena got some weird epiphany where he tried to diverge from relying on too much fanservice, and that was the result, dead and forgotten.
>>
>>285647235
If Matsuena has learned anything from his latest cancelation, yes.

The reality is that he really doesn't much talent outside sex appealing characters.

I don't want her raped because I hate her. I want her raped because I love it. Because it would actually be something other than teasing. I've had enough fucking teasing. I want her ahegao and sexual submission.

The right should've happened if she broke out. None of that reinforced glass or plastic shit. Have some bondage master or some other such nonsense come and bind her up. Even have her struggle a bit but get restrained. Then have a shot of the guy petting her blindfolded head and rubbing her ass.

Shigure was only the "weakest" among the Ryouzanpaku because she was the youngest and least experienced. Going by her actual on panel record, she not only never single 1v1 definitive loss, but was one of the masters with more fights and on panel wins, all against other masters.

The problem is that most of her fights have very weak motivation. Like look at every single other master and their fights. Those fights were just fight for the sake of fighting but also in it, the participants had share history or opposite worldview.

I disagree. "Anime G.I. Joe, where EVERY villain can be exactly as bullshit as the heroes" is a million times better suited to this guy's sensibilities and talents both as an artist and storyteller than Kenichi; a manga, which, I would like to remind everyone in this thread; went on for literally hundreds of chapters where the audience was supposed to be on the edge of their seat, wondering wether the invincible martial arts masters or Ryozanpaku were going to defeat some new rando Yomi villain or not.

Kenichi actually sucks balls as a martial arts action manga for multiple reasons, but primarily because only Kenichi, Miu and their friends could ever realistically lose a fight. Every single multi-chapter fight featuring any of the masters was a waste of everyone's time.

Shigure, my beloved. But Sakaki had the best fights and seemed the closest to Kenichi. After them it's the alien dude.
Also Shigure, but I'm pretty sure Koetsuji was the best all around master.
Kenichi vs Sho Kanou, Kenichi vs Odin, Berserker vs Tanigaki and Junazad Silcardo vs Akira Hongiu were legit fightan mango kino, and I'm tired of pretending otherwise.
Anything with Shigure and Miu.
Lastly, some people seem to only remember the fanservice, but Kenichi was also very consistently good with its major fights.

I get that, but I personally liked her bout vs the mounted knight while she rode a motorcycle, which was very creative in a lot of ways, and if you're talking about fights with emotional stakes, then Shigure's version of the ones you mentioned was when she fought the Edward Scissors hands spoof guy who killed her father.
