In light of recent sequel news I thought I could do with a rereadWhat is this about?>Kenichi, who has been bullied but wishes to be strong, joins Karate club upon entering senior high school. However, he gets picked on by the other pupils in the club everyday. One day, Kenichi meets Miu, a beautiful girl who has just transferred from another high school. On Miu’s suggestion, Kenichi decides to be a disciple of Ryozanpaku, a mysterious training establishment. Kenichi could not imagine the brutal training he receives from the martial arts masters there… However, now Kenichi is marked by Ragnarok, a street gang group, and he is constantly defending himself from them.I haven't read this since it ended back in the day so in a lot of ways this will be more than just a refresherAt a volume per day we should end a little bit after the new chapter has come outThere are new readers so please keep spoilers hidden, even if it's to gawk at your best girl's butt

>>286112328He's dumb, but he ain't stupid.
>>286112357His finger isn't even on the trigger.He'll just push the pistol right into Gusco's skull.
>>286111747Tanimoto really wishes his coworkers were the quiet type.
>>286111720That's a hot Kenichi.
>>286112381>No!! If he dies, he won't be able to keep living!!You don't say.
>>286112427And that's how Weird Al Yankovic came to be.
>>286112425Renka...
>>286112437People die when they are killed.
>>286112392That's just CTE, elder.

>>286112540Bill Cosby-san's ultimate technique
>>286112576That damn girl again...
>>286112611It's genuinely a pretty impressive martial feat to pick the pocket of the guy punching you in the face
>>286112666So which master is Satan?>>286112680>planning an ambush along the path those three would takeHow far ahead did Nijima plan?
>>286112685Step away from the faker, Ken-chan!
>>286112761Faker? You're the fake hermit around here!
This demon!
>>286111791What the Chinaman doin'?

>>286112737RE-ENTER Best Boy
>>286112792>allow me to explain>IN SONG!I just cant help but love this guy, hes too based
>>286112803His best.
>>286112026Miu's been dead this whole time?!
>>286112521So this damn rabbit is in actuality Apachai's tulpa, and he is so powerful spiritually that it manifests into others' perception.
>>286111720Did you get laid over last two days, Magister?
>>286112899Suddenly Golgo 13
>>286112381Shirou's relative!?
>>286112946You saw it too, huh?
>>286112439That's kind of horrifying.
>>286112826Why do we need the fake hermit. When the real hermit can materialize clothes, gets into sick jam sessions with Vulcans, and is incredibly gregarious?
>>286112899he's wearing the coat, does that mean he brought Sebastian?
I forgot how nonchalantly Sieg just joined Shinpaku. I thought it would be a bit more dramtic.
>>286112783>>286112737OUR GUY
>>286112451I believe it.

>>286112967Ken's mom is so hot. Father-san should plant another son in her when Appachi inadvertently kills the current one
>>286113000he's such a good father
>>286112576Alright anons, who the knucklehead that did the salute wrong? WHICH ONE OF YOU WAS IT?
>>286112576My beloved appears again.......
>>286113007He would never do something so irresponsible
>>286111720Welcome back, Magister. Also, who the hell does Kenichi think he is, looking so cool on the cover like that? Does he want the Masters to kick his ass again?
Just imagine how Honoka will turn out on the other side of puberty.Tanimoto is so lucky, he gets to dote on a cute loli and breed a bombshell!
>>286113145How many is this again? Ludwig, Sebastian, didn't we see a third one that I'm forgetting
>>286113171Two guns aren't enough for him. Two kids aren't enough either.
>>286112737MY HERO
>>286113183Maximilian, for a total of 3 so farsomeone get this man an honorary /k/ membership, three separate shotguns in a country with laws as strict as japans is a genuine feat
>>286113171>He's hiding Ludwig from his wife.Kenichi dad is playing a dangerous game.
>>286112792>Jazz for you SoulBased Niijima
>>286113171What the hell did he shoot in the photo? A giant grasshopper?
>>286113171whats he holding in that picture? It looks kinda like a giant grasshopper to me
>>286112737I didn't remember that he was the first to join.
>>286113227Oh, it seems to be a lever action shotgun, don't see many of those. I thought the bore seemed especially large and smooth for a rifle.
>>286112801>Hermit kept his chuuni streetfighting outfit in his school lockerReally?
>>286112792Understandable Sieg. I mean look at Nijima go!
>>286113227>lever actionthe man has taste in more than just wives it seems
>>286113022>arousal medicineDoes Kensei need extra-strength viagra or is he making roofies?
>>286113300>he actually shot at themholy fuck dad
>>286113312>shoots to kill>terminator cycledudes legit
>>286113312Proving women wrong is the Ken family motto!
>>286113312>Revolving reload techniqueDAAAAAMNOld bastard really knows how to use this shit
>>286112026Tardichi…
>>286113338Evidence seems to suggest he's a master on the same level as Ryouzampaku, just with firearms instead of martial arts.
>>286113375That's a stretch given how nonchalant they areHe's got a few techniques, but he's probably in the gulf of expert rather than having reached master
>>286112381He'll die if he's killed!
>>286113382Ken inherited this man's tenacity, resilience, heart, and stupidity. Ken inherited his cute butt from mama
>>286113299Clearly is for the ladiesLike storing otter meal for future eating
>>286113324>>286113312ASS
>>286111943Classic muay thai technique, that. Using your punching arm to wrap the head and pull into an uppercut/elbow/knee. The author does know a thing or two about a thing or two.
>>286111720SHINPAKUSHINPAKUSHINPAKUSHINPAKUSHINPAKU
>>286112389I don't think his finger could fit in the trigger guard.
>>286112439The elder is basically the River Lethe, or some kind of buddha that cleanses karma.
>>286112521Couldn't he have made up a thing like, oh he got a similar design from the villagers but lost it or something, and he's been into collecting them ever since for sentimental reasons? It really wouldn't have been hard. I guess the Elder is just an awful liar.
>>286111898>>286111912uoh
>>286113768Drink Pepsi
>>286112701Damn, I can't believe Hermit would do that to his old allies.
>>286113729>>286113756Well, that's not foreshadowing at all.....
>>286113807Wow, they were childhood friends the whole time!!!!Slop.
>>286113793>>286113807How convenient for her have that with her today
>>286113807Does this mean we're getting carboy Kenichi like we got catgirl Kisara and Miu?
>>286113768This reminds me of the one time I went to Japan. Everywhere sold Coca Cola except for Osaka, which sold Pepsi.
>>286113831It's Miu, with something that looks like a cat.She probably carries it on her every day.
>>286113816Ominous nerd behind little Ken
>>286113854Holy FUARK this guy is wide.
>>286113854ENTER YAOI MANSeriously look at that fucking frame, dude's a fridge
>>286113854>>286113870This nerd was waiting days here for Ken to remember
>>286112899He's......standing there
Literally meI have a terrible memory
>>286113897>>286113901Ken-chan is a bad friend? No... It can't be....
>>286113375I'd put him more at "action movie hero" than "Invincible God of Death" level myself
>>286113235>>286113244Looks like a hare held up by its hind legs, but I can see why the roughness of the drawing would throw you.
>>2861139343mil yen for kids snacks?! Jesus!
>>286113079me......it's been a few days since I've done it......
>>286112026That's a cool threat from Elder>>286112392Behold my turn you retarded technique
>>286113145ENTERLUDWIGHUNTING GUN
>>286113934Those are like cheeto puffs in cylinder form. Only a genius level martial artist could do that without obliterating it, much less without even cracking it.
>>286113594Wow Kenichi is a bad friend.
>>286113235>>286113244Yes.
>>286112302I need to see this page in color to see the two manly men better
>>286114030Some Baja Blast will refresh his memory
>>286114090Odin should have been the protagonist desu. He only gets increasing based as the series progresses.
>>286114076>Isn't it great Ryuuto-chan? This is the skillful elegant girl we were enamored with as kids! She's now an Aryan sex goddess that I live with and I see her bare naked butt regularly. All thanks to that badge you gave me, buddy :)
>>286114102I mean, its kind of chuuni, but they do live in delincuent dominant era so he isnt really saying just bullshit.
>>286113510>Understanding. Justice prevails
>>286112576HEIL NIJIMA>>286112792>>286112737Jeez Nijima seriously put all his points into charisma.
>>286111720I missed you Magister
>>286113583He's like Stuart Little now
>>286114174Based reading comprehension. To this day, some people think Ryuto was buttblasted by losing the badge and not for losing the chance to make a connection with blonde bussy.
>>286114205Wait, can he... optic blast...?
>>286114207>bussyAnon...
>>286114082Baja Brain Blast

>>286114341Based Miu. Stand up for your man
>>286114217AN ENEMY STAND?!
>>286112381If you die, you die!
>>286113897For some reason candy shops seem to stay the same in manga.
>>286114417>top left panelsextremely cute
>>286113948Oh yeah, the nerd with the cool as hell trick.
>>286114242Honoka looks like she is 5 here.
>>286112737RE ENTER!
>>286114030I do love how friendly Ryuto still is.
>>286114510He's still "green"?

>>286114572>Teaching your childhood friend how to fight so you can fulfill the childhood promise
>>286114547It's an old phrase meaning inexperienced, like "wet behind the ears".
>>286114631>he doesn't knowYou have yet to "scale" the "wall"
>>286112899Best dad in shonen.
>>286114297Hey, it's a cool badge.....
>>286113549I remember a moment like that from my own training, when I lifted a tractor tire that I hadn't touched since my first week there and suddenly realised how much stronger I was
>>286113073>No I'm fineHe's hiding something
>>286114465GO mighty manlet!
>>286114510>He's still green!NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>286113324IS SHIGURE NO PAN HERE
>>286112694i love this retarded alien
>>286114804Stop making the pages sticky, Miu!Even if it's just a wonderful dream!
>>286114576He resists interrupts?!
Well we had a little paremt teacher visit and reconnected with a childhood friendSince Kenichi suffered another loss you just know tomorrow his training is getting even more harsh!
>>286114017YeahForgetting the promise is tolerable, but forgetting your childhood friend is something else
>>286113612>Elder is taming bear with his bare fistHeh
>>286114887To be fair the dude has taken multiple concussions from Apachai and even Odin's own goons so I give him a pass.
>>286114720That's what I always say Kenichi.
>>286111791Focus Ken.
>>286114676>>286114628It's over..I do like how Ryuto was caught off guard a few times by Kenichi's moves.
>>286111849>>286111858I sure hope the kids don't get caught in this.
>>286111920RIP that man's balls.
man, i completely missed the siegried fight
Almost forgot
>>286111965>>286112012So this is true master level combat...>>286112026>only one optic blastSpooky.
damn 4 volumes behind but slowly catching up
>>286112328>a children's paradiseAh yes, I'm sure the rich ugly bastards you intended to sell them to would indeed have a jolly good time.
>>286114741>I'll send these to the 'pet corner' column as pictures of a beaten dogfucking hell Ma
>>286112381PEOPLE DIE WHEN THEY ARE KILLED?!
>>286112418Cute Miu lifting that boy.
>>286113807>Romantic af chapter>anon is seething
>>286112439He should teach that technique to Kenichi - then he can use it on Tanimoto to make him his real friend!
>>286115182Odin is seething
>>286112496He's like a stray puppy following you home.
>>286114676First impressions on Ryuto he doesn't seem like that bad of a guy for being leader of a delinquent group and childhood friends with Kenichi.>>286114741Heh Kenichi got found out immediately time for ten times the training. >>286114841>>286115070Thanks keep it up
>>286112521That rabbit is a goddamn memetic hazard.
>>286112540Kenichi now has even more brain damage.
>>286111898LOLI ASS
>>286112576SHINPAKUSHINPAKUSHINPAKU
>>286112589>that suspicious group of yoursMy guy, you were LITERALLY in a delinquent gang less than a week ago.
>>286112611Kenichi can be so mean whilst looking like a sweet cherub.
>>286115262Niijima has grander plans than just fighting other kids...
>>286112685It's an impostor!
>>286115295Our marshal? No, couldn't be. He's too nice for that!
>>286115126It makes more sense in nip.Makeinu aka defeated/loser dog is how the nips say loser.
>>286112737RE-ENTER
>>286114242Holy shit, she's gonna age all the way back into a fetus at this rate
>>286115324what did dogs ever do to them?
>>286112792Sieg sold his soul to the Devil's tunes...
>>286114697Probably sebastian or maximillianOr both
>>286112864Akisame continues to be completely batshit and I'm here for it
>>286112026Would you look at that, Kenichi is actually more retarded than Apachai.
>>286115364Can't be, his wife made sure he left them both at home.
>>286112381Apachai will get along well with Shirou.
>>286112439>it was an evil country with corrupt governmentHe should specify more, there are too many of those.
>>286114297Reddit...
>>286112479Oh yeah Elder? Look at how the dojo is going right now.
>>286112540Maybe that hit will make him overly retarded, he will loop back into a genius.
>>286112899Best dad has hit the dojo.Y'know, thinking on it, since he's not a master, there are no rules against Ken's dad using Sebastian against one of the Ragnarok thugs trying to murder his son...
>>286112611Of course the demon is maximizing AGI and DEX.
>>286115070Thanks for the dump. Good job!
>>286113694Miu is into femdom
>>286112977Sakaki, please don't kill Kenichi's dad.>>286113000>smoking in the middle of the dayThat's just as bad, you realize?>turning around on his opinion of the dojo just from seeing MiuNow I know where Kenichi gets it from.
>>286113022Kenichi isn't just nosebleeding, but we can't show what else is going on under those clothes without changing the age rating.
>>286113073>Ken-chan is our precious source of income!Wow, they sure do think so highly of their number one disciple! Haha...
>>286113145ARISELUDWIG
>>286113183Sebastian, Maximilian, and Ludwig. And I'm sure that's not all either.
>>286113299The latter. Not that it would ever work given Shigure and Miu could easily tell.
>>286113300>running while holding a shotgun in one arm and Kenichi in anotherDad is fucking strong.
>>286113312>>286113324>not just the revolving reload, but firing backwards without looking back whilst in an active chaseThis man is cracked.
>>286113382Somewhere, Niijima cackles.
>>286113549Shotaichi...
>>286113583Can Akisame literally invent anything.
>>286112737Why even bother impersonating Hermit? They'd run away knowing it's Siegfried, no?
>>286115947Its about baiting Hermit
>>286115070thanks, and grats on losing 5 lbs
>>286112792The Devil's Trill!
>>286112801>>286112820So that's his plan.
>>286112890I wish I was that wooden beam she's sitting on
>>286112946Kek, exactly my thought.
>>286113145I know it's coming, still made me chuckle.
>>286113891I bet he comes here everyday wondering where the fuck is Kenichi
>>286113312This man is surprisingly capable. What's his job, again? A police officer?
>>286114174Bro would shit himself if he learned about Renka and Shigure.
>>286113594>such an old memory doesn't disappearMotherfucker, you completely reset a criminal boss' brain into a clean slate. Don't give me that bullshit.
>>286113612Holy shit, I bet that bear is a fucking vegetarian now.
>>286113756Hehe when it's not colored, loli Miu looks like she's wearing only thighhighs and bare her ass
>>286113901>>286113924The way this is resonating with me is harming my soul.
>>286114242I thought she's a middle schooler?!
>>286114496>that was just like a movieReally nigga?
>>286116527she was mangaka made her a toddler
>>286114576Your legs are open.
>>286114841Thanks for the dump.
>>286116584It does get brought up later that this move is weak to attacks from below.
>>286116673I'm actually more talented than Kenichi...?
>>286116192We know he attends business trips because he skipped out on one
>>286116797More than zero isn't really a flex.
>>286116192He's an office worker with a hobby of sport shooting/hunting.
>>286111898Why is it fat?
>>286116857S-shut up.
>>286116888it's not: she's wearing skintight spandex, you fucking perv
>>286116192Later chapters showed him to be somekind of president or at least head of department since he has his own secretary who phoned him when he didn't show up for work
>>286116853>>286116868>>286116937Yeah, Kenichi's conversation with Odin confirmed his dad is good enough to win shooting competitions.
>>286115070Fatass
>>286114154Miu being rude or just using a different finger?
>>286112504La migra trying to stop Apachai.
>>286112381Apachai does look like Archer, possible Shirou connection?
>>286112565>>286112701Preparation H really does marvels, don't you think?
Miu was extra cute this chapter, even if she is kind of a cunt sometimes.
>>286113044Huh? I thought the anime ended at Odin’s fight (and skipped that part)
>>286117855There have been a handful of OVAs.
>>286114266>>286114217CONQUEROR'S HAKI
>>286113164With any luck she won't change at all.
No Kisara this volume...
>>286114887I wonder how he even remembers to tie his shoes
>>286118672She's blushing??!!
>>286114804>neuron activation
>>286114841>>286115070Thanks OPYou took a break and gain a big step, just like Kenichi in this volume!
>>286113594Elder telling lies when he can literally delete a lifetime's worth of memories from people's minds.
>>286113807THE CHILDHOOD FRIEND ROMANCE
>>286113854BIG NERD DETECTED
>>286111791Thanks for the recap!
>>286113145my true mentor...my guiding Moonlight.
>>286113375I mean, there do Exist "Weapons" Masters. I kinda wish we finds someone deranged enough to reach Master Level on Gunkata.
>>286113975This is some FFVIII hack fraud tier writting
>>286113854AUSTIN POWERS LOOKING MOTHERFUCKER. This is not groovey, baby.
>>286114741Ken has 3 (not) girlfriends while Ryu nerd spent 10 years seething over something Ken forgot.Ken has the moral victory here
To be honest guys I fucking hate the "the main couple already met when they were kids" trope. It's suck and it add nothing to the story beside ading some fate bullshit to the story
>>286111933ya dun goofed, Miu
>>286112392I could hear hokuto on this image
>>286112439This is kinda of a dumb move because if he was evil it's likely he will just do evil again
>>286114841For an MC Kenichi loses a lot.
>>286112576I've tried the salute...
>>286121086>Ryu>KenI finally got it
>>286114207>buttblasted by losing the badgeWhat kind of retarded faggot would think that?
>>286111734>broken brick by Ken's headIt's the little things
>>286114297>>286123529I think he mean that Ryu hate Ken for being bad friend, which he is, with Ken literally forgot about RyuLike, its only like what, 7 year?
>>286112346>>286112357This is so fucking cool
>>286112392>hashougekiGUSCO LOOK OUT THAT SHIT'S PLUS AS HELL! HE CAN LOOP IT IF YOU BURN OUT!
>>286114755>I've never been defeatedJust throw him agaist Yujiro Hanma already.
>>286112792Y'know, Nijima is a weird little freak but he's genuinely good at a lot of things not having to do with fighting.
>>286112941I just joticed but doesn't Mom's hairstyle (the face-framing side-bangs in particular) look rather like Renka's?
>>286113073Source of income? He's not paying tuition, I don't think.
>>28612380510
>>286113171This author realllly likes drawing skintight tops and skirts.
>>286123894After you see what he does later in the series, you'll realize that Yujiro wouldn't stand a chance.
>>286113312Okay I didn't expect dad to be an action hero in his own right
>>286113466>>286113478Manly as fuck
>>286123805Ryu just hate Ken because he got beat than one time, then he met Kensei and basically got recruited and taught by the guy who think strength is the only thing worth pursuit and killing is fun.
>>286113510It's funny how Kenichi feels like a weird mix of a more modern moralfag goody-two-shoes MC and a more old school scummy pervert MC, depending on the situation.
>>286112792I thought this was scene was the funniest shit when I first watched kenichi.https://youtu.be/WjLiUDyGPaE?si=uEPTeJOM71qi22OkI still think it is.
>>286113686It's a neat detail that while the manga is chock full of fanservice, Miu's figure is relatively realistic. She's busty, but not comically so. I understand this changes later.
>>286113807Hit him with the retroactive childhood friend strats, that's an advanced technique
>>286113897>>286113901I've been there, Kenichi. One time it was even a first cousin.
>>286111898rocking ass since loli age, rivals never had a chance.
>>286124124You're saying Ma Kensei's wife and Kenichi's mom are sisters?
>>286112946it's him for sure.
>>286113312holy sexo shigure!
>>286114198>you're the first man to penetrate me to such an extentreally dude?
>>286124339truth to be told it would be better if he was more of a pervert. he just got an healthy amount of T.
>>286113576holy short skirts sexo!
>>286114411Kenichi, your misogyny is giving way to homosexuality
>>286113674i like miu in this outfit, very womanly, also>>286113694dat ass on mid panel
>>286114510SANDROOOO
>>286113807lame
>>286113844funny smuggy miu
>>286114676This was a good "final* boss preview"* as these things usually go and seeing how much manga there is left yet, he'll probably get powercrept before long
>>286114741Jesus Christ Kensei
>>286115070All this from light exercise? Very good progress.
>>286125059yes
>>286114841thanks op. miu's boobies were great this volume.
>>286125178Also from not wearing a hoodieJust a little bit of cheating
>>286125059Kenichi handles powercreep decently well.All the guys ken-chan fights are kids who also have lots of room to grow so the power hiearchy of the disciples aren't set in stone.People who kenichi could easily beat right now could beat him or give him a run for his money later on.Especially because from now on he won't have a monopoly anymore on getting training from a master.
>>286113252>MWO!what did he mean by this
>>286113854ENTEEEEEEERRR
>>286125957It also introduces the most absurdly overpowered character early on so it's not about*who's the strongest?" but more about Kenichi's personal growth as well as the other "disciples
>>286127141Even the characters who are weaker end up having their moments instead of getting fully Yamcha'd.
>>286114207>implying he didnt want kenichi instead
>>286127141the masters are so cartoonishly strong it really takes the whole wind out of the series' sails when it focused on them
>>286114341martial artcels... it was really about personality in the end...
>>286111801I wonder, what does it truly mean to be "Master Class"? Plenty of people call themeselves masters, but being "Master Class" means be truly well above the rest and almost super human.
>>286112012Man, Jedi wish they could be masters like them.
>>286112680Ah, Fat Loki. I love you, Cabrakan.
>>286112737MY NIGGA OF NIGGAS!
>>286112418The black haired girl in the middle of the middle panel looks like background girl...
>>286127141Elder is the right type of overpowered in setting unlike certain blue eyed characters *cough*
>>286113594This is why your enemies want to kill you, Kenichi
FUCK!I can believe I've been missing these
>>286128492Classifications like that get expanded on later if I recall.
>>286129289At least we're still pretty early. There's still 40something volumes left.
>>28612956250 something!
