Chapter 343: Unintentional
>>286168534HOWEVER
>>286168463I am whelmed
>>286168534When was the last time we had a HOWEVER?Like an actual text on page "However"?
what a terrible fight. i'm going to reread asura.
>>286168657
it's pretty much just repeating the last chapter so far
>>286168472>tells doesn't showkek
This manga is 100% AI by now
>>286168463>How you ask?Shut the fuck up Sando I didn't ask shit.
This is so fucking stupid. Also Gaolang is potential man.
>>286168777>IT'S THE REMOVAL!
>>286168626howevern't
>>286168680>>286168714>broke your wrist>"I'm gonna switch up my approach">keep punching with your broken wrist instead of elbow or kickDid Sandrobitch seriously forgot about his Muay Thai?Did Sandrobitch seriously
>>286168757ur 100% AI right now.
>>286168680>>286168714This is just going full retard for Gaolang. Raian is one of the strongest men on the planet. Gaolang can't slugfest him just on the face of it.
@grok write a better manga
>>286168652How the fuck does Seki know they're "watching for the gaps in consciousness"? Is he a mind reader?
>>286168842WAKUWAKU YOU'RE SO STRONG GAOLANG, AWESOME!
>>286168862Once a character becomes the "narrator", they gain omniscience of the fighters and the fight.
Hassad soon.
>>286168872That middle panel is straight up the Frieren chin meme
>>286168903I'm going to fucking kill myself.
Gaolang's on-page record is 2-4 now (in fights that matter)
Actually page 17
>>286168652>>286168680I really don't like mental "strain" techniques causing physical stamina drain trope.
>>286168903This character is a meme
Actually page 18
>>286168964You just wait, Sandro will reference the myth that Chess players need to eat a lot of calories because thinking is so straining in a future chapter.
FIN
>>286168934Haha whoops
>What's that? You want a Kenganvenger to lose? Sorry, best I can do is a loss by technicality.
>>286169022SAVE KENGAN ASSOCIATION, RAIAN!
>>286168472Someone take the "battle damaged" brush away from Daro, he can't be trusted with it>>286168534>HOWEVER
>>286169022Only Raian can save the world
>>286168842Raian no
>>286168995>I'm swallowing my pride to say to you...>... raise a triumphant cry, you mighty champion.
Guess he didn't learn shit huh
>>286169022RAIANLIVE!
Ed bros, how do we feel about our hero losing to a tired Raian.
>>286168964Eh, that particular bit is fine
>>286169064He will never be Lolong
>>286169022ONLY YOU CAN SAVE MY DEAR FRIEND OHMA, RAIAN I LEAVE THE FATE OF THE WORLD....UP TO YOU!
Me? I am already half AI and half Edward.
>>286168842>Raian so desperate he has to resort to hexesHe really is desperate, wow
Why do keep up with this manga?
>>286168903This is lame as all fuck, goddamn
>>286168964That's the most realistic part of Sandro's writing. Mental upkeep is a thing.
>>286169071That scenary
>>286169155I want to see what kind of bullshit they will come up to defeat Shen
>gaolang could actually win this, and still had upper hand during the last exchange (he blocked the removal-powered counter while landing full blow on raian's face)>but he's not japanese so sandro made sure he put the vulnerable tracker on his wrist instead of elsewhere (cosmo even demonstrated that you could wear it on leg)>wearing tracker on ankle would work best for gaolang even, because muay thai utilise knee and foot thrust, and kick with shinfuck this shit seriously
Gaolang is simultaneously the most protected and the most humiliated character of all time.
>>286168463>Remember that thing we introduced last week? Here's why it doesn't really matter and will never come up again.
>>286169084He'll go through the brutal gauntlet of Nam Nhat, Sawada, Chiba, Jose and Himuro to even the odds
was this fight to nerf raian so gil has a chance?
>>286169232Those are all elite A rank fighters, Edward would have been in trouble if he didn't figure out the timing.
>>286169232All off-panel, of course.
I thought Raian learned principles with the wobbly sword Why is he so ass he fell to Gaolang level
>>286169048>SAVE OUR BLOODSPORT ORGANIZATION THAT IS JUST MEANT TO ALLOW BUSINESS MEN TO DECIDE WHO GETS TO WASTE MORE MONEY IN REAL ESTATE, RAIAN!
>>286168964I love it, like how it's used in Usogui.>Bad guy has a definitive edge because there's a gamble (the rules are vague) and they're underwater and trying to preserve oxygen so not thinking is an advantage, and he's really good at spacing out.>Good guy figures out the rules of the gamble and explicitly tells it to the bad guy just to make him start thinking.
>>286169278Silly anon, now Gil will get bruised up even more by some other pair of jobbers to level the field
"I only lost due to tournament rules" merchant
>>286169222Right? It's absolutely bizarre. It's like Sandro remembered that he came out of his loss against Agito in Ashura still looking good and tried desperately to replicate it but forgot how to write. Now he gets rules or narrow losses that don't technically make him look weak but still come off dumb as fuck.
>>286168598>>286168626ELBOW
>>286169324>I thought Raian learned principles with the wobbly swordwhat was that even for?this ‘aiming for the gap’ bullshit is way better
Gonna enter the next KAT and DQ myself so my powerlevel is permanently left ambiguous and left to be speculated about
>>286169232No way, too many jobbers for a single guy, they're being shared with other fighters.
>>286168934Can he just not get fucked by the rules anymore ?
Seems like pretty much all of Gaolangs losses are by accident or rule technicalities, even his first loss against Agito was all.>Agito accidentally broke his fist.
>>286169324Gaolang too strong
Nobody predicted thisApologize
It's SHITE being a Gaolong fan
>>286168961>>286168995Technical victory for Gaolong via battle edging
>>286168934...Then put it on your ankleGoddamn this manga's writing is insultingly bad it's not even fun anymore
>>286169397Carlos being a machine of wining by technicalities would save this arc.
>>286169504Gaolang "the Thai God of Potential" Wongsawat
>>286169326Do they even do that anymore? IIRC in Hatsumi vs. Kaneda they didn't even bother to introduce what companies they were representing, let alone what was at stake
>>286169583>Carlos has been killing all the kenganvengers by just sniping the watches off their limbs >strolls up to Shen with 30 lives
Don't you get it? Gaolang putting it on his ankle would be admitting that he can't keep it protected on his wrist, his pride wouldn't take it!
>>286169539I thought it'd be the other way around because Raian is a dumbfuck that doesn't care about rule and Gaolang SHOULD learn his lesson. Turn out I got subverted by his masterful writing again
How many times did Gaolong kick this entire fight? Did Sandro forget he's also a master of that too?
>>286169441What happened to that tournament everyone was trying to qualify for. I completely forgot. The one Rihito won, or the one Agito won.
>>286168903>>286168934That's why you put it around your ankle instead. Less likely to be hit and damaged.
>>286169648>his pride wouldn't take it!That's why Japanese always win! They would rather DIE than lose!
>>286169653Raian doesn't give a shit about blockingGaolang's muscle memory fucking him over is a fine way to end the fight, it's predictable but it's fine
>>286169745He actually did block...and didn't even bother to protect his watch >>286168745
>>286169022>Gaolangs loss is just another rendition of his loss in PurgatoryHas Gaolang won against "any" Kengan Fighter after Kaneda? Jurota switching to Kengan doesn't count, he's a Purgfag at the end of the dayGaolang is staying some weird A-tier fodder that gets brought out for superficial "unfathomable" fights against characters Sandro likes. Also I'm guessing Gaolang learning Formless was a weird phase since he didn't use it here
>>286169714It's called long term storytelling sister look it up
Why dont Gaolang hid the tracker in his ass? Is he stupid?
>Gaolang on his way to exit>walks into Saw Paing>"RAAAAAAAAAAAA KAOLANK! FINALLY WE CAN HAVE A REMATCH!">"I'm sorry, but I got eliminated">Saw gives him pep talk again>seeing a spark return to Gaolang's eyes Saw breaks his own watch and goes "AAAAAAHAHA NOW WE CAN FIGHT TO OUR HEART'S CONTENT">we never see the actual fight
So it was a tie
>>286168680>we've reached a stalemateNo you haven't. The situation literally changed from what it was before, and you're worse off for it, shut up.
>We know Raian can't lose, because he needs to fight the big bad.>However, Gaolang wouldn't lose without a good showing, which would potentially be detrimental as it would mean Raian would get damaged.>Of course! I'll make him due to the rules!So.. What was the point of them fighting?
>>286169881He's putting up a tough front to hide that fact.
>>286169881This is the Gaolang special
>>286168872This shit got pretty gay.At least Sandro still has the characterization of Raian left.Also>conse quences
Weren't they being sniped by an org 13 worm.
>>286168872The top panel by itself
>>286168961that seki looks funny as fuck lmao
NOT THE APPLE WATCH! ANYTHING BUT THAT!
>>286169022
>>286169022Can someone remind me what's up to Raian that Gaolang is invested in?
>>286168463Isn't that wrong? Average reaction time is 1/4 of a second. I assume it would be even lowers for these freaks.
>>286169803He's wise to not give Raian an excuse to plunder his booty hole
>>286168995>NOOOO YOU'RE HURTING GAOLANG-CHAN FEELINGSI fucking hate how Sandro flanderized most characters even Seki
>>286169715Are there rules where you can put it on?
>>286168777thanks Seki
>>286169504his power is the real deal>pick up movement and read opponents really fast>one of the speediest fighter>also one of the hardest hitter>also one of the most versatile combatant with kick, knee, elbow, punch, even grapple (muay thai actually have grapple moves too) and weapon technique at his disposal>demonstrated ability to throw knockout blows from and to any position, something that karo and adam for example were praised for as unique ability>has proper track record and experience outside of kengan stuffhe had to lose by technicality else the outrage would be similar to agito "losing by knockout blow to the chin within the first 10 seconds of the match" instead of "losing to jurota after bloodied and long exchange"
>>286169888>So.. What was the point of them fighting?Sandro understands that the Good guys vs Bad guys roster is unevenly fucked so he's having Kengan Fighters bash each other even though this whole tournament is supposedly to keep Ohma and Ryuki safeFriendly reminder every other CEO was fine with working together except Nogi who decided to completely fuck up the rules because he's a self-assured jackass
>>286168463Almost forgot there was a new chapter, wonder how Raian wins with a new power.
I think we need a rule recap/revision about the wristwatches
>>286168534I missed How-Ever
>>286169022Raian doesn’t care
>>286168995Why didn't Raian just keep attacking if he wanted a fight that much? It's not like Gaolang would've just done nothing and let himself beaten to death, wouldn't he?
>>286169071KEK
What's the build for Raian nowadays? The instant removal activation buff was insane
>>286168463>.5 secondsMaybe for dead cats lmao
>>286170331Gosh anon, that would be assault!
>>286170027Beating the Connector.
>>286170331Beating a guy that won't fight anymore like how Mokichi suffered? Our hero Raian won't do that!
>>286169022what's stopping them from fighting while knocked out from competition? half the fighters don't even give a fuck about the reward
>>286169960
>>286168472>thread the needle>>286168903>>286168934And just like LITERALLY EVERYONE ON PLANET EARTH predicted, Precious Princess #3 (maybe #2) wins against Precious Princess #5ish and it's made both princesses look worse and wasn't satisfying in any way shape or form.But since an unsatisfying win is what the "narrative" wanted, I'm actually surprised Sandro managed to "pull it off". If "I" didn't know any better "I" would say he thought this out but alas "I" am not that "green". >>286169779>>Gaolangs loss is just another rendition of his loss in PurgatoryJust goes to show you that the Princess rankings are set in iron and cannot be upsetted in way shape or form in the long run. Same reason why Precious Princess #4 Agito won again against Gaolang even though the odds were stacked against him.>Also I'm guessing Gaolang learning Formless was a weird phase since he didn't use it hereThe AI forgot about that.
"I" have "needled the thread"
>>286168903At least a handful of anons predicted this outcome in the previous thread.
>>286170391I'll leave the answer to that open to interpretation
lollmao
>>286169022If Gaolang stood up in this panel, he would be two heads taller than Seki.
At this point this might as well be a humiliation ritual. We just keep on getting baited into believing that the next chapter will be better but it's just getting worse.
>>286170556I think probably 90% of readers predicted a Raian win if the fight was to be completed.
>>286168903>loses againREMINDER THAT HE HAS ONLY BEATEN KANEDA
>>286170705>We just keep on getting baited into believing that the next chapter will be betterLol what? Speak for yourself lad. I have absolutely no expectation whatsoever that this will get better. I haven't had such an expectation since the Purgatory tournament. I'm here because it's so bad that it's genuinely funny. So it actually does get better each chapter from my perspective.
>>286168710I thought OP fucked up and was reposting last weeks chapter for a couple pages.
>>286170149Wrist or ankle. Cosmo put it around his ankle because he's a grappler.
I feel like no matter how this fight would have ended /a/ would still have a problem with itIt's like the other side of the coin of these chuckleheads >>286170608
>>286169022RAIAN. LIVE.
>>286168903>>286169022His last fight ever btw. Last canon recall we'll get of Gaolang is that of a washed up bum that has forgotten all that ''I must fight to the death to uphold my honor'' to just abide by autistic rules no one really cared about.Fed to the princess and ready to get tossed away forever. Even without that retarded wristwatch thing got rawdogged all the fight and failed to do any lasting damage to Raian. In fact he would probably have lost his other hand anyways so this may have prevented him from losing even more of his dignity. But hey he gave Raian some mean blood hexagon textures here and there so it evens out or something.
>>286170996When you make a fight with a setup like this you are just inviting critique.And let's not act like the fight itself is a masterpiece, bad finish or not.
>>286170996This fight shouldn't have happened in the first place. Everyone was scoffing at it from the get-go because they knew for a fact that Sandwich couldn't let any of his Kenganvenger princesses lose (especially to each other, and ESPECIALLY if it involves his number one super special princess Raian). As such, everyone knew that the outcome was going to be utterly disappointing no matter what. The manga wasted an entire month's worth of chapters on this nonsense.
>>286169022i was wondering how sandro was going to soften gaolang's loss. kenganvengers can't humiliate other kenganvengers, that's the rule.>you won... but it was an accidental victory... it would've been a close one... it would've been to the death... it would've been unfathomable... but i gotta leave it to you now bro... the apple watch broke and the return window closes today... it can't be helped... you're carrying the torch forward, even though it hurts my pride bro... i'm just so honorable like thatlol lmao even
>>286169803Gaolang literally lost because his lack of strength what the fuck is that SEAmonkey babbling about. He got his wrist fucking shattered and none of his strikes, despite being more precise (and therefore easier for him to strike weak points) did any damage to Raian, short or long term. He left Raian at 80% HP and was already fucking dying while the former was only getting pumped up. What the fuck. They are NOT at the same level.
I don't even know what to feel anymore. And I assume Raian will just stop because the others asked him to? Also, is this the most a character has used their signature move and still (technically) lose?
>>286170996>I feel like no matter how this fight would have ended /a/ would still have a problem with itThat's entirely the problem people had though. This fight happened just because. It was basically fan service except no one except the author asked for it. It was clear to everyone with half a brain that this wouldn't have a satisfying ending no matter what happened. Raian could have won and that's boring because Raian is Sandro's waifu. Gaolang could have won and that's slightly less boring but still boring because he's also Sandro's waifu. It could have been a draw and that's boring as well because again, what the fuck is the point. And it could have been interrupted and surprise fucking surprise, that's boring as well, because yet fucking again, what is the fucking point???????????????
>>286168815Kek'ed
Fucking Medel bantamweight could tank God Glows and he was supposed to be a glass cannon
>>286170996If Raian had taken a clean loss then Sandro would have gotten a standing ovation.
>>286168472>How you ask?>They tried really hard.Sasuga.
>>286168472A needle-thin margin
>>286168652I really don't like that Seki's is just a Kazzy stand-in here.
>>286171307Nah, that'd just make the Wu storyline pointless since now it's ??????????.
>>286168652the pogbayashi humiliation ritual continues
>>286168903RAISE A TRIUMPHANT CRY
>>286168714You can literally see Raian's arm covered in wounds from blocking Gaolang's punches. Why didn't Raian's wrist watch break from enduring these endless punches?
>>286171307It would have been nice to see but narratively it would have been another entirely pointless thing. Gilbert's whole quest then becomes pointless as well. I get it, the narrative is fucking dog shit, so another pointless thing isn't exactly anything new at this point but still. It would have been a short lived victory because we would have gotten some other fucking insanely convoluted bullshit to make up for it.
>>286171443Gaolang was actually very mindful of that and avoided it, ergo, the mental strain of that made him lose so ackshually Gaolang >>>> Raian still. Absolutely.
>>286168903>excuse to not have either get KO'dfucking kek
>>286171443Gaolang was precisely hitting around the watch because he is le honourable kenganchunger. Same reason why Raian only won accidentally.
>>286171355Raian and Gilbert would have both just disregarded the rules and still fought each other anyway
>>286171355Like how Setsuna losing to Kuroki made his rivalry with Ohma pointless?
Why is he like this?
>>286170705I’m just waiting for the terrible Frenchman and his grocery store off-brand Hokuto Shinken to show up again
>>286171443The watch learned Niko style and dispersed the damage
>>286171593To be fair, that was resolved later on in their own time. Unless Omega is really going to be stretched further than this, it'd just look weird. Then again, I don't think there's anyone really stopping anyone from staying in the forest to resolve their own issues.
Somebody post the "we all know the real winner, it was carlos" meme
>>286171755>>286169397
PLEASE LUOHAN-SAMA, SAVE US FROM THESE DOLDRUMS! MAKE YOUR APPEARANCE IN THE MANGA ALREADY!
Kenganvengers are essentially written like Vin Diesel in fast and furious, they all have a contract regarding how many hits they can take and how they're allowed to lose When two kenganvengers fight, to preserve their aura the writer must come up with an ending that gives fans of both an excuse as to how their character is still stronger despite losing
>>286171668
>>286171769Thanks
>>286171987Nice.
>>286171987>Sandro's princess clubIronically Sandro just evaporated all of Raian's offscreen gains, making this fight worse for him than anyone else (except maybe Seki)
NOOOOOOOOO SANDRO DON’T TURN KAOLAN INTO POTENTIAL MAN SANDROOOOOOOOOO
>>286172481>Sandro just evaporated all of Raian's offscreen gainsJust like his offscreen losses so basically nothing happened. Which has been the theme of Omega for a good few years now.
>>286170996Because everyone predicted a cop-out ending, if Raian had just obliterated Gaolang for the KO that would have at least been a conclusion, these sorts of dusty finishes trying to preserve both of their dignities just makes both look stupid.
Pretty hype chapter if i must say. Didn't move the main plot at all, but at least we now got the deus ex machinima character out of the way!I feel like making a barbeque burger now
>>286172481If anything he massively underperformed, he's got a huge physical advantage over Gaolang if he'd gone berserk I don't think Gaolang could have kept him off him because he doesn't hit hard enough.
>>286172620>I feel like making a barbeque burger nowYou got "me" in the first half, not gonna "lie".
>>286172523Too late. Gaolang is Himuro of upper Kenganvenger pantheon
>>286172620Did you say burger?
>>286171672Did the watch get the "timing" right?
Meat status?
>>286171443He used removal on it
>>286168903there's a very real possibility this is the last time we ever see Gaolong fight, and this is how it ended. this is how he goes out.
>>286172481Did you really expect Raian to shitstomp Gaolang?
>>286173012yea
>>286172899I think he could still die to show how strong/evil the final boss is.
>>286173218No one is dying except for Gil and Nic and even those are not set in stone
>>286173260Gil is dying a brutal death, Nic is also dying but the brutality is still up for debate
>>286173218>DieLumawo, he's an OG Kengan character, the worst you'll see is him getting lightly bruised.
>>286173218>evilBrother please. Fucking please. Be so for real right now.
>>286169022Worst fight in the series?
>>286173326Lol no, Nic is 100% getting a "I joined the worm and let myself lose against Jean to save him" retcon right before he dies
>>286173387Still Jean vs Nicholas or whatever the fuck their names are these days.
>>286170715He beat Jurota and Okubo Black
>>286170996I would have been fine if Raian had just killed Gaolang. Nobody is happy with a win by rules.
>>286173387Eh, Eddie Raid boss is still worse. Or REALEST Jeans fight since it retroactively ruins their plot. This is just narratively pointless.
>>286168903Haha.... Hahahahahahahahahaha seriously???
>>286173520>Nobody is happy with a win by rules.It's funny how often Sandro tries to appease two of his princesses and ends up making both look like shit.
>>286173475Truest Winners Tournament exists outside of the plot so it doesn't count.
>Shen's whole motivatioin is to fight with everything he has>agreed to a tournament with a restrictive rule that could end a fight at any momentThis manga is stupid
>>286168903
>>286173747Shen might threaten to plunge the world into bloody war but he will NOT do something without the other parties' consent.God it's so stupid.
I still don't know why Shen is supposedly so evil. Either Shens. His own team says he's mega evil and the Kenganchunguses all think he's evil as well mostly but why exactly is he so bad? Other than him wanting to morph into Ohma and Ryuki, I mean. Sure, that's pretty evil but every other character treats him like he's the anti-Christ
>>286168842>WAKU WAKU WAKU WAKU WAKU WAKU KILLLLL KILLLL I MUST KILLL YOU GAOLANG WAKU WAKU WAKU WAKU
>>286173880KEK
>>286173875He's the "head" of said evil group so everyone assume he's evil by relation. So far he hasn't really done much.
>>286173875Shen is Schrodinger evil. He was originally the big bad but because Sandro felt in love with him halfway he can't be shown doing bad thing. Luohan was created to become the scapegoat that absorbed all of Worm's evil deeds and got shit on by everyone
>>286173387You can say that about any Omega fight in the past 3-4 years
I wish Ramon was here. He wouldn't run away like Agito or go into depression over a broken watch like Gaolang
>>286169022SEAmonkeys BTFO
Raian isn't even using principles btw, he is choosing not to.
Gaolang isn't even using formless btw, he is choosing not to.
>>286174076Sandro is going to unironically use this twist to explain why raian isnt dog walking everyone
>>286174010>>286173957>He's the "head" of said evil group so everyone assume he's evil by relation. >Sandro felt in love with him halfway he can't be shown doing bad thing.The "Evil is on the move" page gets sillier and sillier after each chapter we get with the Connector. It's like every single one of his henchmen are evil but he's just a paragon of niceness. Or at the very least apathy. >Luohan was created to become the scapegoat that absorbed all of Worm's evil deeds and got shit on by everyoneNow this is the truly strange part because that's almost definitely exactly why Luohan was made but he has done sweet fuck all. He's always shown to be scheming something and pretending to be fucking Aizen or something but like, nothing's happened for it? Ever? It's like Sandro just doesn't know where he stands at any given point.
>>286171668I hope Akoya kills him.
That evil, evil devil Luohan... Just what is he planning...
>>286173387If we're talking least redeemable Omega fight ever it has to be Lolong vs that Krav Maga guy at the start of the RCT. I think that's the one which was just the absolute nadir. This one was pretty terrible though, one of the worst in terms of people would actually be pretty invested in this fight but Lolong vs Jobber was a massive waste of a fight in what was supposed to be an all-star tournament
>>286169071KWAB
the worst fight in this series is gaoh mukaku vs shen and it isn't even close
>>286174501That one is memorable. I cant recall a SINGLE RCT fight. Dilbert Wu was pretty ass too.Honestly all of early fights like Kokuro are retroactively shit because you now know they dont fucking matter and were just padding.
First sandro became already scared to permanently kill good guysThen he became scared to make them lose badlyNow he's scared to make them lose badly even for the sake of milk RaianWhat's the point? Just make everybody the same and have them hold hands. He's already turned all the formerly evil guys into tsunderes.
>>286174501It’s a fun Tom and Jerry episode and has iconic moment like Shen’s self-lobotomy
>>286174501It brought that absolute masterpiece of a page so that can't be it.
WHY ARE GAPS IN CONSCIOUSNESS EVEN A TALKING POINT IN A UNIVERSE WHERE HIGH TIER FIGHTERS ARE TELEPATHIC AND CAN PREDICT THE FUTURE BASED ON INTENTTHIS IS LITERALLY JUST PICKING RANDOM PSEUDOSCIENCE TRIVIA SLIPS OUT OF A HAT TO MAKE A FIGHT REVOLVE AROUND
>>286174753And he chooses to use the eugenic super freak and the guy who can throw 7 jabs in 2 seconds as examples. Two people who are well exempt from this weird "handicap"
The manga is "predicting butterfly effect on a whim... actually never mind."
>stops thinking>can’t exploit gaps because it’s all a big gapSandro foreshadowed it all along
>>286168472>thread the needleNew Sandroism just dropped.

>>286168903What a clown
>The Evil is On The Move, Nigga.
>>286175216Would easily best down Wakashitter
>>286169715Can't he fuck it up with his own kick?
>>286174541>>286174682>>286174709shen turning himself retarded was so notable because it was the absolute nadir of the seriesall the other arcs like luo han's wacky adventures or the striker/grappler tournament were merely abysmal dogshit. but shen vs mukaku was worse
Losing cause of rules seems to be Gaolang's defining character trait.
>>286175259I guess so.Its the most "prominent" bad fight but the objective worst keeps getting updated week 2 week genuinely.Someone said recently that the white brush outlines characters have now happen bc they're AI genned and its easier to copy-+Paste them and it broke me bc you IF by CHANCE something looks good it doesnt have the white blur.Its crazy.
>>286174753>RANDOM PSEUDOSCIENCE TRIVIA SLIPS OUT OF A HAT TO MAKE A FIGHT REVOLVE AROUNDThis has been a thing for a long ass time tbf. Surprisingly this is some of the least egregious shit Sandro has pulled.
>>286174541The Kokuro vs Koga fight is insanely good, it's like what, one chapter? But it immediately sets up tons of Koga's backstory and his fighting experience as well as his limitations and lets him lose without making him look like a total chump. Kokuro never going on to do anything impressive is on Sandro.
>>286174753It isn't even really a new technique I think it's been so long since a Cosmo fight that Sandro forgot that that's how Zone works
>>286175324I did like how it swt up Kokuro as an upcoming challenger and Koga's kinetic eye+ potential for growth but now that i know it goes nowhere i genuinely cant appreciate it.I acrually enjoyed myself up until the end of purgatory but after that the plot just actually ends.
>>286175259>luo han's wacky adventures >merely abysmal dogshitHow dare you! Every moment with Luohan on the screen is unironically a high point
>>286175259I find it notable because of how disrespectful it is. I personally haven't noticed much of that happening if at all where a person claims he can beat people with his hands tied behind his back and actually do it. Other than that though, yeah it was bad.
>>286175395I'd say Shen walking in is where the plot started to actually die. Berserker Bowl represented a new lease on life for the series and Koga vs Ryuki is genuinely a top fight across all of Kengan but the inside arc was such a disappointment that it destroyed any momentum
>>286175259It's not the nadir. RCT is the nadir. Shen vs Mukaku was at least more visually interesting than a lot of other fights we've had since since Mukaku is actually doing comprehensible things and he loses to Shen in a way that sort of makes sense by Kengan logicmy issue is that the poingancy of a man who destroyed himself out of a desire for revenge is undermined by the constant retconning of who he is and especially stuff like Mukaku not even inventing the Advance
>>286175259Shen vs Mukaku was a fucking waste because Sandro really wanted to hammer home how much of a fraud Mukaku was by not allowing him to use his own variety of Niko movesThe creators of the Niko style getting treated like chump change to a guy who deliberately made himself retarded to fight on even terms is wasteful from a narrative perspective and character perspective
The Gaolang upscale is crazy though. He can just tank Removal Raian for some reason.
If this was old Sandro Gaolong would have won, Raian would seethe but then just jump Gil after the event was over and settle this that way.He can't even subvert properly anymore.
>>286175611Damage in general is just a non-thing at this stage of the series. Like, legitimately, a non-thing. So many fights have the commentator character or the narrator fucking go on and on and on and fucking on about how much fatigue and damage the fighter has taken and how that will severely affect their performance and then the fight happens and lol nope. Guy could have just walked out of a luxury spa after a 3 month rest.
>>286175250What kicks, he threw maybe 2 the entire fight
>>286175706I think if it was anyone except Raian I would agree with you, Sandro hates giving guys who just have physical edge the win but Raian has always been an exception to this, hence his nickname
>>286175706Gaolang being blindsided by the rules after already having it happen once is incredibly stupidI guess it would've been harder to write Raian accepting defeat just because his stupid watch broke
>>286175563>The creators of the Niko style getting treated like chump change to a guy who deliberately made himself retarded to fight on even terms is wasteful from a narrative perspective and character perspectiveexactly what i'm saying. it's not just a bad fight in terms of what actually happens in the fight (although that shit is dumb too with le principles) but it's terrible because it wastes the entirety of the first half of omega's narrative groundwork to have shen rape mukaku while lobotomized (and spouting YOU WERE AWESOME the entire time)
>>286175706The Princess rankings take priority over subversions I'm afraid.
>>286173875At some iteration in his many lives, Shen was like Luohan. No one knows exactly what that means because Luohan now has not done anything really villainous, but I guess he was a real sicko or something. Yan seems convinced Shen would just destroy society if he was aggravated enough.
>>286168472What did they mean by this specific panel? How does watching Gaolang's crotch help Raian in this fight?
How did "we" all feel about Sekibayashi this "fight"? Did he add to the experience?
>>286175940looking at hips for kick motions
>>286175940Centre of gravity and proclivity bro
>>286175963kazzyashi
>>286175940I honestly believe Raian is unironically gay
>>286168626Having a blast too? Jesus Christ Sandro stop consuming western slop!
>>286168934>Gaolang watch went from right arm to left armSandro doesn't really give a shit anymore huh?
>>286176004He did decide to compliment another man's cock.
>>286176048Not just another man but the Superman
>>286176072Tbf if there's anyone in the world with a dick worth complimenting, it's probably someone called the Superman.
>>286176034The watch is a sentient creature the fighters needs to "tame". There are many "layers" to this "clash" of "champions".
>>286169022WHY does Gaolan care about ohma!?! Isn’t he here for Thailand and his twink king?
>>286176104>The watch is a sentient creature the fighters needs to "tame".You could call it a Youkai Watch
>>286176121Presumably now that that goal isn't achievable any more, saving Ohma and Ryuki takes priority. Or ChatGPT forgot.
>>286176121I thought he asked Rama to let him go because he needed to restore his honor or somethingHe's never leaving Japan I guess
>>286176131Heeeeeeeeeeeh
>>286174398Luohan would never do something virtuous like continue the sacred cycle of life. He'd have sex with a noble Kure woman while secretly swapping the condom that she sabotaged with a safe one, denying the holy Kure family from attaining the Connector's genes, that bastard!
>>286175963is seki just fodder now?
>>286176193>now
>>286176121The cutthroat era of the Kengan Association has been over for a long time now. Everyone participating wants to stop the evil Worm and save Ohma and Ryuki. That's why everyone reacted so badly to Nogi's schizo moment where he changed the rules to be more brutal.
>>286176193How long could a character whose gimmick is "he lets you hit him on purpose" really last in a comic like this
>>286176193No, considering his power level and Sandro's love for the character it's safe to say that this was a temporary Kazzification that was caused by being the only observer of the fight. Since he hasn't been eliminated he's probably due for at least one more showing.
>>286176034Can't help but to think that Cosmo pointing out that his watch is on a different spot from the rest of the fighters makes it a big glowing target and a reason for his future elimination.
>>286176193>unironically struggling with Worm Fodder #874316219862379>absolutely obliterated by FuSeki is done. It's over.
>>286175963>>286176193He’s an entertainer so you can’t blame him for taking on the role of commentator but he’s clearly better suited for fighting
>>286176157>"Lord Rama, I'm ready to return to your side. I'll start my training from scratch and this time...">"Oh no, it's okay Gaolang, you can stay in Japan.>But Rama-sama..?!">"Don't worry, I already have a new "sword". Allow me to introduce: "Sword of Rama" Kure Raian!">Raian comes in smiling and wraps his arm around the king like it's some NTR doujin

>>286176460Top kek
>>286176267I dread the thought of Cosmo fightingThe only grappling allowed now is throowing (where Daro doesn't have to draw the actual motions) or mounting your opponent until he gets the timing right
>>286176193Seki is Gatekeeper level.
>>286169022>that weird feel when my rookie boxing waifu has a better winrate then Kaolan

>>286176460Kek, it's like the Medel meme
>>286173441That fight is special for being the only time a villain was allowed to beat a kengenvenger, the retcon sucks but Jean Luc getting fucking merked by Nicholas is something I didn't think was capable of happening in this manga
>>286175963>That random amount of damage in each panel
>>286168903Kill.
>>286177396That's only because Jean is a Kengenvenger by proxy, a lower class Purgatory member even so he is allowed to get humiliated.
>>286177396>Jean/Nicholas>KenganvengerAnon?
>>286177474Bro they're all hecking friends now
Can Seku just shut the fuck up! Sandro you fat mongol looking fuck were like 500 in man we don't need this useless commentary!
>>286177525You severely "misunderstand" the hierarchy, "friend". OG Kengan Asura characters are gods. And among them, some are more godly than others. No one in Omega comes even remotely close. Not even Lolong "Could he have taken him" Donaire.
>>286177407Anon this manga is 100% AI
>>286177525Still, Jean definitely doesn't make the cut into the big leagues due to being stuck in a coma for hundreds of chapters. He's pretty much below super novas>>286177693I'd argue Rolon is a honorary kenganvenger by now and probably gets the favor over low tier kenganees like Rei or Metsudo bodyguards.
>>286176193No, he beat Okubo.
>>286168652This from the man who takes every hit without guarding.
>>286177787Lolong still hasn't done anything noteworthy whatsoever. Arguably Jurota is more of a kenganvenger because he actually upset the princess rankings even if for the shortest duration. Lolong is just sort of... there. Like, he exists. That's about it.
>>286169715It's safer if they inserted it in the anus. No on will try to look there.
>>286176848Legitimately great manga. Omega wishes it could be anywhere near it.
Say what you want about Sandro, but you can always trust him to humiliate thai ladyboy boxer and his fans.
>>286177396>KenganvengerDoesn't count, he's with Purg. The only actual win against someone that's the closest is with Erioh.
Kaneda will beat Raian and get revenge on his friend
Technically this is a win for Sawada. Ballet hasn't been eliminated yet
>perma-debuffed by the living jobber flag, Rama>moveset poisoned by God Glow>hexed by fighting to serve Rama instead of going full Waku WakuGaolang is fathomable, is there any way to save this character?
>>286169022Trash, he eliminated the most popular character in the manga in a pointless fight and basically still at the beginning of the tournament. Bye, I'll only go back to reading it if there's a next arc
>>286178195>the most popular character in the mangawhy are kaolangirls so delusional?
>>286178073It's crazy, 2 out of 3 fights he wins comes from the other guy letting him pummel them in the face until they get the timing right and failing and then fights where he loses stem from getting his hand busted or rulesGaolang has never had a clean win where the other guy didn't look stupid for losing the way they did
>>286177957Yeah I've been reading along with the recent translator. Its cute.
>>286174753>THIS IS LITERALLY JUST PICKING RANDOM PSEUDOSCIENCE TRIVIA SLIPS OUT OF A HAT TO MAKE A FIGHT REVOLVE AROUNDSo business as usual
>>286169022In the end, Gaolang is too strong to suffer a clean defeat.
>>286178852>too strong to lose>too strong to winIs this what it means to "stand" atop the "wall"?
>>286174753ChatGPT thought up a powerup but Sandro didn't input his "data"
>>286168903Being as genuine as possible here, i really did cheer for Gaolang even tho i knew him losing was inevitable.But this is beyond what i thought would be the worst outcome possible.Giving up is one thing, but giving up when things are just about to get real is in another category of humiliation.
I dropped this about the point Eddie got bodied by Raian. This thread has encouraged me to pick it back up. Forgot how entertaining a trainwreck could be.
>>286177396>>286177525Being surprised that he lost is like being surprised that one of Koga's friends lost. He isn't a Kenganvenger, being friendly with them is radically different from that.
I speedread RCT.
>>286179694Sandro speedwrote it so it's all good.
>>286169022This might be the worst page in all of Kengan so far and I'm dead serious
>>286177396Nobody who wasn't in the KAT counts as a Kengenvenger. Even new Omega fighters like Nitoku don't count since they clearly aren't being given special treatment the old KAT roster is. Jean is a new character, not a kengan fighter, and suffered a massive aura loss when he lost his crazy schizo boy who killed his rival status to a retcon. Maybe the biggest KWAB in this series in years.
>>286179888Does Himuro count as a Kenganvenger
>>286179770"Raise a triumphant cry" has it beat in the cringe department but it comes close.
>>286170623It's symbolic, shows he's the bigger man there
>>286179888>Maybe the biggest KWAB in this series in years.Still goes to Mukaku.>Legendary status>Uniter of the inside>Gets bodied by a guy who made himself retarded>>286179916Yeah.
>>286168903Majjkayo?
>>286179916You... you mean THE Icy Emperor? Of course, how could one of the best not count as Kenganvenger?
>>286178260Stupid ass retard.
>>286174845>7 jabs in 2 seconds as examples16 jabs in one second*
>>286180766>Has more than half the votes of the entire thing combinedWhat>Jun vs. KiozanWhat? I'd say the Muteba fight was better.>I'll always be hooked on youwas fucking amazing.
>>286180793>What? I'd say the Muteba fight was better.It was an early poll. Those fights didn't happen yet. You can tell by what was on it.
>>286179916Yes which is why he gets hyped up despite being a relative nobody.
>>286180766I wonder how this poll would play out now and if even any Omega characters would rank high at all
>>286180026>Still goes to MukakuI don't feel that way because everything that Shen did was just total nonsense. >You're stabbing me with a spear while having 5x my muscle mass? Well actually I can redirect the force by grabbing it by the tip because principles>You filled this room with poison gas? Well uh, actually I don't breathe lmaoIt was less a fight and more like watching Wile E Coyote trying to catch the Road Runner. If the "fight" went on for another chapter I'm sure Sandro would've had Shen running through a tunnel that Mukaku painted onto a wall, and then Mukaku smashing against the wall when he tries to follow.
>>286180992Yumi and Luohan reach top 5.
>>286180766>Cosmo in 2nd>Rama in the top 10God I hate faggots so fucking mu->Inaba down in 17th, and below MEGUROWait, fags wouldn't let him be that far down, what's going on? Who's responsible for these poll results, who am I supposed to be mad at?
>>286180992Raian still wouldn't crack the top 15.
>>286181155Inaba's too greasy I guess. Creepy isn't an argument since Kiryu is up there.
I dropped at the start of 2025 (stop reading shitty manga new year's resolution) but had to drop in, couldn't stay away. I have no idea what's going on with the wristwatch survival match but I'm laughing hard at it being an excuse to end fights like that
>>286181468The characters are playing fortnite and the win condition is to break watches
>>286181468The manga has definitely gotten worse, but I will say that you missed the one good mini-arc, which was Luohan fighting the Connector. Probably the last time anyone in these threads had any form of enjoyment from the manga.
>>286176542You mostly listed fights that have zero weight to them in terms of potential. There were exactly 0 people who thought Ohma vs Nitoku was the banger we’ve been waiting half the manga to see. This fight on the other hand is something basically everyone wanted for one reason or another. The blind slurpers on reddit and comikey wanted to see two of their favorite epic fighters duke it out. For the hatereaders, the horde of sunken cost readers, and the people who only read to see how much farther this manga can sink, they all wanted to see one of Sandro’s two blatant princesses get their shit kicked it. The wet fart of a fight, the new “technique” that somehow makes fighters weaker than regular people and adds no visual or mental stimulation for the reader, and the even wetter fart of an ending makes this fight easily one of the worst in the series. If it was one named character and a rando, it wouldn’t suck as much.
>>286168626>I'm having a blast
>>286175048Threading the needle is an actual phrase, and he’s using it correctly by referring to the difficultly of hitting the gaps.
>>286176848>>286177054Name?
>>286182477I don't subscribe to the whole "Sandro's princesses" schlock that people like to peddle around here, so the impact of the who the characters involved are is muted for me. Raian hasn't had a real fight in ages and hasn't done much since he ripped Alan, a fighter with nothing but lip service propping him up, in half. Meanwhile Gaolang just constantly slides by on technicalities and face-saving scrapes. This fight just didn't represent much to me. I don't buy the hype behind Raian because he's done so little. Funny enough, the actual worst fight is probably the one I failed to mention in Raian vs. Willem, the last actual fight Raian was part of.
>>286168807When was our last spread?

ALL YOU HAD TO DOWAS THREAD THE DAMN NEEDLE GAOLANGGaolang is the biggest choke artist in the series holy shit. For this guy that’s supposed to be so calm and collected and this top class striker with expert precision, dude always gets tunnel vision and trips right at the finish line.
>>286168903>>286169022>raise a triumphant cry, your mighty champion
Why is Himuro an "emperor" actually?
>>286180766THOSE SEA FUCKERS RIGGED IT, THEY RIGGED IT I TELL YA
Why not strap the bracelet around your cock?
Aren't we just glad that Raian, the man who threatened to kill a referee if he called the match just so that he could break his opponent's neck now respects Gaolang's decision to abide by the rules instead of just rushing him anyways?
>>286168961>averageomegareader.jpg
>>286187029Raian acts like he wanted to kill Gaolang but it's hard to tell how serious he was being.
>>286168626I cant believe Gaolang is forcing Raian to use hexes. Must have learnt that one from Ohma

>ConvictEww
>>286169022I think this page has genuinely induced the most pain I've felt reading this manga. Like I've almost always stuck around for the threads but this is the first time I've felt serious regret doing so.Granted I was able to skip the jean fight so perhaps I should exercise that level of foresight again.
>>286171623I wanna tell you that I notice your edit anon, and it's funny.
>>286188580To me nothing will best Lu Tian. Until that point, Omega fights were alright. But after that everything went downhill.Oh, and Ohma's revival too
>>286187029Sandro has had a really difficult time with Raian. The guy was clearly created to be a heel for Ohma to beat senseless with Advance in round 2. Making Raian a good guy or a hero just doesn't work no matter how much he tries to push the narrative that Raian is this hothead murderer who's actually a pretty cool guy when he's on your side. If he cut the shit and just played him straight as the evil heel fighter he is I could get down with him.
>>286188028Why are you redditroons incapable of directly answering others anons? Is clicking on a previous message too hard?
>>286187971Fuck you you made me think a new chapter dropped.
>>286180766>6th place for a character that literally never served any purpose besides OhmawankWoodchipper, feet first.
Stopped reading Omega a year ago because I just couldn't take it anymore.It can't be worse, right?
>>286189654teehee~
>>286189666No....
>>286189654It's definitely not better. It's just a constant stream of steady shit.
>>286189484People voting with their dicks and self-inserting as Ohma, but to be fair this poll was taken really early on. Like either near the end of Round 1 or before it even fully concluded. So there was no way for people to know that Karla would be a compete nothing character the whole time and maybe thought she would actually fight later.
two or maybe three years ago I said that Kengan Omega is a serious top 10 candidate for worst manga sequel of all time, like it's up thereit cleared that goal easily, it's up there now with trash like GTO Paradise Lost and 21st Century Boysabsolute garbage trash manga

>>286169022This can all still be saved if next chapter Raian ignores this and just beats the shit out of Gaolang.>>286188761It is so weird how everyone is so tolerant of Raian. Pretty sure he killed more people than Akoya and has been shown to enjoy engaging in recreational torture against weaker opponents.This wouldn't be so bad if most of the cast weren't huge moralfags with how they treated Ryuki, but let Raian just be.
>>286190463>This can all still be saved if Raian keeps being a 1D annoying little larping faggot

>>286191871Honestly forgot that Silva even had ties with the Kure. And even now I'm not sure if I just read your post and created a fake memory or if that's even true.
>>286191926A Kenganvenger has to die. Like Agito or Kuroki or someone really high in the Princess rankings. Someone like Waka or Julius won't cut it any more.

>>286192235Julius seems to be a fan favourite here and was the first one to come to mind because I had Waka come to mind. But yeah, that's kinda the point. It needs to be someone really high up in the rankings. Like, imagine if Raian fucking died. Imagine how many threads we'd get. No one really likes or cares about Raian but he's high up there.
>>286192255I still believe Eddie's death is the lowest point. What followed was merely beating already dead horse

Nah, the author wouldn't remove his most popular character from the final arc like that. He'll find something for Gaolang to do in the future.
>>286193156>He'll find something for Gaolang to do in the future.
>>286193156>final arcAnon...
>>286193156>final arc
>>286193156We're barely through a quarter of the story Shen was always the weakest among "The Connectors" This entire arc is just an early boss fight
I feel really sorry for the mental health of all the anons who think this is the final arc when it ends with the announcement of KAT 2.
>>286193156>final arcYou're not ready for the rise of Niko Three
>>286193249I honestly could see it not being the final arc. I don't know why anyone even thinks they have a chance at beating Shen, nobody relevant has gone through any kind of substantial training or growth from what we've seen.
>>286193426You're not cynical enoughI think this is the final arc because it doesn't make sense for it to be
>>286193011So you like him because he's big and strong and abuses substances? Wakatsuki is also big, strong and has a personality to talk about. You're such a little faggot.
>>286193141I'm sure Himuro got some
>KAT 2>America getting hyped as THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF UNDERGROUND MARTIAL ARTSimagine thinking this is the final arc
>>286194117Yeah and then then all the world powers will gather together and fight in the secret 4th layer of the inside
>>286168903>too powerful to loseI KNEEL
>>286168934if I had a nickel for everytime Gaolang lost a fight because of a disqualification, I'd have two nickels, which isnt a lot but also fuck you Sandro
how did we go from this
>>286194618to this?
>>286193156His most popular character but not HIS most popular character, if that makes sense.
I cant believe I'm nostalgic about the Purgatory tournament but also holyshit that was almost 5 years ago now
>>286194669KvP was back when people had hopeWe're long past that
>>286194722Feel like the Berserker Bowl should represent an uptick
>>286181850it was "great"
>>286195044>Hey, aren't those my memories?>I remember those.
>>286195086*seinfeld theme plays*
>>286194814You think? Ryuki vs Koga was good and Koga getting curbstomped was good but were there many other positive aspects to it?
>>286195299Saw Pang's fights were solid"Arrived" is a meme but Rihito's improvements are done well imo.
>>286195299It has multiple good fights in it which is a much better batting average than the other tournaments
>>286195299Ryuki vs Koga was soured for me because of Ryuki vs Adam, if I'm thinking of the right tournament. I thought that was some fucking bullshit.
>>286171443 The watch is unbalanced.
>>286168714 Remember when Gaolang was at risk of ending his career because he hit Kano's elbow?
>>286168903 Pussy.
>>286194722I like the first half of Lolong vs Ohma.
>>286193156Gaofags everyone
>>286195506>>286195366You know, u right I think there are a lot of things people could find annoying in the berserkerbowl but the positives outweight the negatives Just having the actual protagonists of the manga be participants goes a long way Does this seem more accurate?
>>286188761All Sandro would have to do is not have Raian act like a murder-tard in every single interaction, he needs a cool-down when he's with allies and friends, a shift in personality. Instead he acts like a belligerent bully to everyone he talks too which makes him incredibly one-note, very boring and predictable and not in a reliable way
I saw a comment on the video of that baby monkey (the one with the stuffed orangutan) getting beaten up by other monkeys, making a joke about how the zookeepers should give him a knife. My brain instantly auto-completed the sentence with "and teach him to say SHHHYEEA"
>>286196264He should praise other people's equipment more
>>286195537>Ryuki vs AdamAnother instance of Sandro introduces aspects of a character that contradict their introduction all the way back from Asura>"Adam would never beat on someone when they're down" Even when he was more or less bullying Cosmo like that for the first half of the fight. Ryuki learning the Koei style so quickly is bullshit as well
>>286196818Adam's loss might be the sleeper worst fight of the series. It was definitely one of the most pathetic attempts to play the "he lost BUT he's actually stronger..." card.
>>286195889Has the fortnite tournament even been hype? Or is it that anything is better than five nights at ohma's
>>286196969People talked about the Jean vs Nicolas fight and we got some good memes out of the Akoya vs Agito fight and Muteba snatching the McGuffin from Ohma but overall, not reallyWe're all bored and waiting for Luohan and Tiger Niko to show up. I like Luohans schemes being based almost entirely around the fact that Shen is a very compliant retard
>>286196969Despite being pretty mediocre so far, at least the fortnite tournament holds the promise of some plotpoints being resolved and some important fights finally happeningAlso Five Nights at Ohms was THAT bad
>>286196969The vast majority of Japanese comments have been negative so far.
>>286198438wow japanese fans are vocal and they are not happy
>>286195889I saw the resurrection of Ohma go exactly the opposite direction.
>>286194647Grandma was looking fuckable. Explicitly.
I can't believe my hero Raian is letting this loser faggot live
>page 10The wall...was too tall...
Has anyone been working out since Omega started? It's been 6 years so it'd be interesting to see how fit someone could get
>>286200886I have taught myself "principles" so I don't have to
>>286200886I taught myself "Formless" so I don't have to
>>286200955>>286200968You two should fight
>>286168903The jobber became the winner by losing.
>>286173387Anything with superman syndrome.
>>286200886I downloaded a bunch of apps on martial arts as a joke after the Carlos chapters but I haven't used them for anything.
HOW ABOUT MY-NUTS-TO-YOUR-FIST STYLE
>>286168961This is abject horseshit but I will at least take something approaching satisfaction in the fact that Raian looks like he's about to cry at this outcome
>>286195366Yeah I fucking cheered irl when I saw Saw Paing beating CosmoI also got my driver license
>>286169570can't do that because Gaolang planned to use his kicks.which he used. a lot. right?Fight could've been a lot better. Everyone knows Gaolang was the underdog so Sandro should've surprised us by having Gaolang's punches keep hitting and Raian confused that Gaolang is too fast even for him. Reveal the consciousness gap later on when Raian catches on instead of having YappaSeki.That way Gaolang actually gets a couple chapters being a genuine threat to Raian and Seki does not get the yapping treatment
>>286168961I laugh at the fact Raian is the one seething for once. This is the ultimate humiliation for him and it's partially his own fault.
It's kind of funny Raian doesn't care about Gilbert. I don't think he even thought Gilbert was joining. Raian probably came for Shen and other top tiers along the way. He was fully prepared to get disqualified in a death match with Gaolang of all people right here and now.
