>>286614446>Mongoliantoo soon
>>286614438That's not Muteba. Who the fuck is that guy?
Faster OP. My "erection" is dying.
>>286614533The wise magical negro of the book
>>286614545Switch it up every time. Go hard->soft, then soft->hard, and hard->hard->soft...
>>286614592What makes it "his" if he's just following what Niko told him so far?
>>286614628kek
>>286614699>even now he's still throwing
>>286614672Should've just used Indestructible on his face
>>286614513How many other manga show two competitors collapsing from exhaustion mid fight?
>>286614699third epithet
>>286614699Gee Raian, how come you can have three epithets
>>286614734>A "gap" in consciousnessYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>286614734>>286614744>>286614750Round 2 really was peak
Chapter 136: Father
>>286614794He stole Raian's nose, is that allowed?
>>286614758Raian admitting he fucked up is cathartic and his last interesting contribution to Kengan as a whole>>286614767>>286614781fucking raw
>>286614794Pretty brutal of Ohma to pluck out Raian's eyes
>>286614767>>286614781Yamamto SAVED Raian's life >>286614775it really isthese actually feel like desperate fights to the death.
>>286614850One of the best Kazzy moments
>>286614794Don't let this panel fool you. Raian won the metaphorical win.
>>286614879hell yeah
>>286614879Reality would be that the audio is going to be too fucking muffled to be legible.
>>286614781>>286614813>>286614850Get fucked Erioh
>>286614892KAZZY THE PROTECTOR
>>286614879This is one of the time's he's actually pretty based.
>>286614826This still feels like Luohan "disrespecting" Joji. Well, maybe not quite that bad.
>>286614850why do this when he already won
>>286614463OHMA I TOLD YOU, STOP SPAMMING ITS NOT WOR...YEAH THATS IT OHMA, CHAIN THE LIGHTS INTO HEAVIES.
>>286614826No but seriously Kenzo didn't really test anything. Bro just didn't want to show his face
>>286614910Kure clan living natural lives will never get old.
>>286614910lmao wheelchair jiisan
>>286614941You don't understandThe crotch shot is extremely important to this scene
>>286614592Should be called Ohma style.
>>286614954Setsuna hated the Niko style before Waka made it cool.
>>286614453>>286614463I totally understand the criticisms of this fight, and I do think that long term it probably had negative impact on Sandro's writing mentality(ie, super modes, excessive use of ATATATATA high level exchanges, and every fucking antagonist being a cocky retard who plays with his food and loses, regardless of it making sense or not), but I still like the writing behind it in the original context of Asura with stuff like "that's what martial arts are for".
>>286614985Unironically yes, it shows that Ohma made him "go limp"
>>286614475>CRAAAACKThat's his sternum and ribs right there. Ouch!
>>286614734I know the Niko style is just magic but I really like the early depictions of it. Seems not as invincible.
DONEKiryu really really really dislikes NTR.
>>286614781HOLY SHIT A REF DID SOMETHING.
finally past this fight. all kino from now on.
>>286614970Holis used to be like Raian?Why didn't we get to see that in kengan zero?
>>286615025I remember disliking Waka vs Julius on my first read, hopefully this time it'll go down better
>>286615025Thank you OP!
>>286614954Holy fuck. Setsuna still sits in the cuck chair even after Niko's death.
>if I don't just spam adamantine techniques I can winhe really almost had to die to figure it out
>>286614954Me when a doujin's plot unfolds in a way that kills my boner
>>286614941I still think he is alive.They must be wondering why Ohma was acting like a retard round 1 and 2.
>>286614850>What would happenAnd then Raian intentionally broke the contract by needlessly killing Alan and Erioh just told his client to suck it up while Kure clan suffered no consequence
>>286615025TIME TO SLAY THAT MONSTER.
>>286614835My wholesome favorite character in all of Kengan, Erioh....
>>286614767>>286614781>>286614794This is peak.
>>286615125That was personal.
>>286614750What a match to put in early Round 2, really
>>286614592>AAAAAH I HATE OHMA>AAAAAH I HATE THE NIKO STYLEI' convinced people only say shit like this due to massive omega exposure. I always liked Ohma and his style as showed in ashura and will never hate this nigga. shame what happens after
>>286614910Stop being dicks and let jiisan have a kill. Why bring him out if you won't let him kill?
>>286615215>SpoilerI mean duh, it got leveled up to an invincible fighting style that has no weaknesses
>>286614781"refs are useless"Bros what is this???
>>286614781THE ONE TIME THIS FAGGOT NEEDS TO HANG BACK FOR LIKE 10 SECONDS AND HE SQUANDERS IT
>>286615215First time reader, and I don't care about Ohma at all and his fighting style basically equating to magic atm is really lame. His moments with Kazzy and his mentor are pretty nice, but outside of those Ohma is fairly annoying as most shounen protags are.
>>286614982Besides the petty grudge Erioh has no reason not to allow this.
>>286615125Hiring Raian and Akoya for matches where you lose if you kill your opponent was just peak retardation
>>286615215I mean, yeah. It's absolutely the fault of later stuff. People were genuinely impacted and saddened by Ohma's death, you can look back at the threads back then. It really worked as a character arc for him, because you had everyone's preconceptions of deadly super modes never really having consequences for the MC slowly subverted as the tournament went on. And then Sandro just threw that all away in favor of playing that straight.I still maintain that Ohma's revival could have been salvaged and people wouldn't have hated it nearly as much if he'd been genuinely impacted by all this, weakened by the circulatory damage, and having to get creative to adapt his style to being physically weaker.
>>286614941was agito thinking Ohma was tiger'>>286614954s student here?
>>286614910The old man was looking forward to this more than anyone else
>>286614954Can I count his as a retcon? Setsuna was pleased earlier when Ohma used some niko techniques. Retcon count so far is only at 2.
>>286615340Yes
>>286615357I'd say no, Setsuna was in love with Advance Ohma, him getting violent was just included. Him forgoing Advance for Niko style makes Setsuna mald.
>>286615025Thanks OP, fight rating: 9/10 Anime version: https://youtu.be/h2uckkXwjM4?si=TZ68v94DEXPzsVgx
>>286615025ogey
>>286614941Was Agito refering to Niko or TO NIKO?
>>286614910>Took like a hundred of the "best" assassins just to even capture himLol lmao this is embarising
>>286614982Remember Eiroh is fine with his granddaughters whoring themselves out for Kengan promo materials but GOD FORBID she decides on her own spouse
>>286614603Cute
>>286614633>>286614699>>286614710Pure Kino
>>286614781Now this fatass retard ref jumps in when its against a fighter that won't hurt him.What a useless fraud.
>>286614750How come what's essentially an O-Soto-Gari with a punch gets a Niko Style name, but when Raian used Judo it counted as brute force? Hate how this whole "brute force only" just serves to soften the loss for Raian. Just let him get wrecked, get humbled and then maybe learn those spooky fight-ending Kure techniques. It lessens a victory that by all counts is complete Kino.
>>286615009>stuff like "that's what martial arts are for"Yes, a classic, but always a welcome theme in a martial arts manga.
>>286614403My man Waka
>>286615215I disliked Niko style bullshit back when Ashura was first being dumped.Too magical and special for being basically just MMA.
>>286615009It's a great fight, there's no real room for criticism here if we're being honest it's easily a top 5 Asura fight.
>>286615215>I'm convinced people only say shit like this due to...the Niko style being a mismatched mix of legit techniques from other martial arts, and straight-up magic, with the worst being the Adamantine "stat-check" kata.
>>286614794This is technically a win for Raian
>>286615321At first I cope by imagining ch50 Ohma would be revealed to be a clone serving the Worm. Since Worm impersonators were introduced just before it would've made sense.
>>286614723Unadulterated kino
>>286615357You can. Though only 2 seems awfully low, mate, how did you count?
>>286614982She lost the abs
>>286614403>Wakatsuki on the coverHe's so fucked.
>>286615387Something weird the dub did was have Ohma declare that the Niko style was worthless before telling Ghost Niko to fuck off
>>286614904erioh is an old fart that thinks smartphones are magic
>>286614538Well there's the Weeping Willy finally.
>>286615799I've only counted so far Haruo's second flashback and ohma not being able to use the Niko Style while on advance. Dont think theres much to count... yet
>>286615918Yeah, I was thinking the same. Shame, I like him.
>>286614960This is one of my favorites Omega memes that stopped being posted in Omega threads
>>286615978Advance going from>it's unsuited for physically stronger opponentsto>it was made to counter the K*re
>>286614634He has two(?) tulpas, one which encourages him to be what he thinks Niko (white/good) wanted him to be when he raised him and the shadow gigga nigga (Black/Evil) who encourages him to abandon everything and just brute force everything with brawling.
>>286616218>inside you there are two wolves
>>286614982The leg wraps stay on.
>>286614962Imagine being the guy sitting behind Setsuna and then getting a face full of hair because Setsuna can just do that
>>286616233Unironically yes, this is just sorcery as interpreted by street rats and Niko is as much a shaman as he is some martial arts master and taught Ohma how to do it under the guise of martial arts (as taught to him too).
>>286616147and that is also a retcon *raughs*
>>286614806>lol
>>286614403Man has Naruto grown...
>>286615014What was he listening to?
>>286616333https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RSyR78jqsU
>>286614794Woah
New readers, your thoughts?
>>286616333https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdkLZNyEMVU
>>286616333https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LH5ay10RTGY&t=0
>>286614592Wonder how Ohma would do against Raian if he had full mastery of the niko style from the start. Because Raian would still be able to pop his removal at that point, which he can't now
>>286614699Based
>>286614438Fuck, the R2 fights are all so awesome. The worst of them is merely "good".
>>286614750>revolution
>>286614767>>286614781Oh NOW you have the balls to break up the fight huh you fat faggot
>>286614818He turned him into a soul eater character
>>286614794Raian POV
>>286614850>Would you just admit you're a sucker who lost a bet and went backsies?
>>286614897I like that he's still quaking while doing this threat
>>286614734>>286614744>>286614750>Ohma basically just as dead as Raian is>can somehow pull all this off in the 0.14 seconds Raian was not conscious
>>286614910How strong was wheelchair grandpa in his prime?
I like tyrant better than "devil" or "taboo descendant"
>>286614592>Whether or not he knows it.....>That's the stance of the Kongou Rikishi!
>>286616254Imagine being the guy that has to clean the arena and having to explain to your boss that one of the chairs has turned to dust
>>286614970Huh, we know Erioh lost at least once when he got humbled, so did he lose two other times or were the two other kure loses from before Erioh?
>>286614982Somehow Karla isn't sexy to me when she's like this. She was on the last dust cover though
>>286614403>Chapter 135: RaianThat's not raian
>>286615006Kazzy is confused here because Hanafusa is clearly a wizard that can resurrect the dead and cure all ails
>>286616333Nothing, it's why the time is at 0:00
>>286615025Thanks op.
>>286614446>Extra: Six"Anonymous" will be making an appearance?
>>286615079In his defense he has brain damage and wasn't that bright to begin with
>>286616736Will his rival "Seven" also show up?
>>286616714Fixed
>>286616787There he is
>>286614736or to be fair, just go limp in his neck like Lolong
>>286616333huisan
>>286614806It's weird that he's so young, but it's even weirder than Ohma isn't his age.Also, this and the Erioh one>I want to make more Erioh stories>I want to give Raian a proper Gaiden>And Hollis>And Fusui and HenzoIt's all Kure Kure Kure.
>>286614592NIKO = KINO
>>286614879Kazzy the Competent, what did you go?
>>286614463COUNTER HIT
>>286616928Sandro has a fondness for the most chunni shit imaginable
>>286614781The ref stopped Ohma? Is he sure Raian is fully unconscious and people won't think he is stopping the match too early?
>>286614612raian was promised that "strength" 3000 years ago
>>286614592
>>286614463>>286614453>>286614483>>286614502See, this fight is why I can't shit on the Niko style entirely because when Sandro is banging away on all cylinders it's actually a really fun style. >>286614781>>286614794Great end to a fight. This one is definitely one of the best so far.
>>286614850Is he also called Kazzy the Fearless in his youth?
>>286614892Honestly, this payoff to the somewhat stupid gamble is great.Ohma gets the win and YAMASHITAKAZUO goes on to pull his weight on upholding a deal, like a businessman.
>>286614879Based tech literate old man.
>>286616928Considering that none of those things ever came to fruition, hopefully Mukaku will also escape Sandro's interest in writing a gaiden for him.
>>286614483The impacts and exertion in this fight are so good. Really sells that these two are putting everything they have into fucking each other up.
>>286614850>>286614865>>286614879>>286614892Kazzy's growth is also a pleasure to see again. >>286614897But hey, he's still a normal guy and the joke here doesn't undermine him.>>286614910>wheelchair gramps got denied his body countFeels bad
>>286614910Damn it, why even bring wheelchair gramps if you won't let him kill? And these motherfuckers better fix the damn house!
>>286614502That's not a guillotine!>>286614513That's not very feasible!
>>286614954Is this NTR?
>>286614941For a moment I thought he was ripping off his pants at the bottom panel out of sheer rage.
>>286614557I'm slowly being converted to the Niko Style. These moves are way more fun than Advance unga bunga.
>>286614592You know what? Ashura Ohma is a good character and the Niko Style is cool and I'm tired of oretending otherwise. Shut up Waka
>>286617129You can read his spinoff
>>286614612>Raian is IsraeliExplains a lot
>>286614686This is kino as fuck
>>286614982This is still weird to me, she’s only 16
>>286614750What a finisher, goddamn
>>286617167Oh, I remember that one. It was quite amusing.
Between Kengan and Baki, which series would you say is more homosexual?
>>286614794I gotta say, this fight is way, way better than I remembered. In my mind it was just "Raian lets Ohma wail on him to show off, then beats the shit out of him until he pops Advance, then the two go apeshit until Ohma JUST FUCKING WINS", which is not entirely inaccurate but doesn't come close to doing it justice. It doesn't have the technical or strategic depth of some of the other R2 and beuo d fights, but the emotion, hype and choreography (punch rushes notwithstanding) are some of the best. I know many keng/a/utists are heartily sick of Ohma and Raian in Omega, with good reason, but this fight is both of them at their peak narratively. I love this manga
>>286615215I think the niko style has too many reactive techniques.
>>286614557>Screw Cutter JizoI unironically love this move name even though it looks like a standard arm lock or something.
>>286617198>OnlyAnon...
>>286614850KAZZY THE RAGING ROOK EVERYBODY
>>286614879>>286614892That's my fucking GOAT
>>286617235Only one features male on male rape
>>286614910Holden "Bloodfeast" Kure
>>286616147To be fair here, the hallucination Niko isn't real, so he can say whatever to give Ohma a motivation boostidk if that's even a spoiler, whatever.
>>286615412Tiger, that's the only Niko Agito knows.>>286614941>>286614954BONER KILLED
>>286617305Kengan then, got it.
>>286617305did you forget kiryu backstory?
>>286617198I don't disagree, but where do you think we are?>>286617209
>>286616333Meguro Huisheng ASMR
>>286616254>Trying to resist playing with Setsuna's hair so he doesn't palm your head inHRRRRRRNNNNGGGGG
>>286616787Kek
>>286614633aww, he's having fun!
>>286614502>>286614513Literally what the fuck even happened here. Ohma was grabbing him by the throat and then in the next page Raian is somehow reversing it and throwing Ohma with just his neck? This is physically not possible. He wouldn't have any leverage to do this.
>>286614710>>286614699These pages do a great job at showing just how fucking feral this guy is. Honestly surprised we've never seen Raian bite someone.
>>286617807he's got the kid buu tardrage energy down at least
>>286615622Yeah it's retarded. in the end Raian using "no techniques" did more or less the same stuff as Ohma using the Niko style. What is and isn't martial arts seems like it changes moment to moment depending on the plot.
>>286614767>>286614781>>286614794Oh NOW the ref finally does something? It seems so arbitrary when they end the match and when they don't. Aside from some aesthetic blood Raian doesn't even look like he took all that much damage.
>>286614826He literally didn't even do anything though, right? Like I legitimately can't remember what even started the Kure's feud with this son. Felt like they just sperged out.>>286614835The Kure right now feel exactly right - they're basically a bunch of retarded assholes, which is more or less expected from an assassin clan practicing eugenics. The whitewashing attempt later to make them seem good was totally unearned.
>>286614982What would you do if you saw her running naked in the hallway like this?
>>286616687Patrician.>>286616581Faggot.
>>286617315>To be fair here, [headcanon]Gee thanks I guess.
>>286617874Cheers anon. Exactly.
>>286617874i guess they had a hard time visually differentiating brute force vs martial arts and decided technique names would be simple enough to show and get the job donein Ohmas case you can compare his Advanced performance to his Niko Style performance at least
>>286617943>I legitimately can't remember what even started the Kure's feud with this son.I think it was a weird round-about way of getting Raian to kill Ohma and Erioh had no issue dragging Kazzy's son, maybe for the authenticity? The theatrics? >they're basically a bunch of retarded assholesI like that they're retarded assholes, imo it gives their Clan some character. Show's how deviant these guys are that they'll pull some abstract shit like this that only makes sense in their headThey can be mild mannered and polite but then be weird vicious freaks the next, Raian is more or less cutting to the chase and not pretending he's anything more than a Killer
>>286617943>Like I legitimately can't remember what even started the Kure's feud with this sonThey just take an insult for a client using a proxy to communicate with them instead of doing things directly. It's still petty but in that ancient clan kind of way.
>>286614738Technically the Baki and Jack fight, or at least Baki was. He had “5 minutes” left or something to finish the fight before bleeding out
>>286614520Lmao that panel of raian running at ohma
>>286618452>They just take an insult for a client using a proxy to communicate with them instead of doing things directly. It's still petty but in that ancient clan kind of way.It's not even that, that was just the excuse to get the rest of the clan on board. Erioh trying to kill Kazzy's kid is all because Karla has the hots for Ohma
>>286614453It's like that one Chinese move.
>>286614633That's great
>>286614826Being a neet is dangerous business.
>>286614879Damn right all right.
>>286614970He's not looking too good.

>>286614850>>286614865>>286614879>>286614892OUR FUCKING PROTAGONIST
I have a confession to make. For the past year and 3 months I've infiltrated kengan threads as a non-reader. I've never read a single chapter of Kengan Asura or omaha other than the occasional page that gets posted in these threads. I make an effort not to read any dumps. I only participate in these threads by studying the memes, reverse engineering a plotline based on the comments and pretending I read the whole thing. I keep a notepad of characters and their profiles based on your comments. I've even posted "fan theories" based on no understanding of the plot and so far nobody has called me out on it and in fact I've gotten a few "hit" posts that got up to 5 replies. I'm only interested in the sociological aspects of this manga.
>>286616605he looks happy
Do you guys ever just stop reading and have sex?
>>286619848Yes.
>>286619819Interesting anon, very interesting. You have to show us that notepad one of these days.
>>286619819Are you going to credit "us" in your thesis at least?
>>286619819Funnily enough, that is the least "schizophrenic" thing about this "manga"Perhaps you will soon "scale the wall"
>>286614954Setsuna so angry he turns into a family guy character.
>>286619819i too would like to see the notepad
>>286619848Why would I stop reading while having sex?
>>286617235Even though Kengan has more canonically gay characters from what I remember, I still think it's Baki
>>286615009>>286615720Rather than this fight deserving criticism, I think future fights deserve criticism for trying and failing to be this one.
>>286619819>I'm only interested in the sociological aspects of this mangaI would assume that notepad contains "us" as well. I wonder what distinct thread "personalities" you've noticed.
>>286615215I don't like the way it doesn't feel like a cohesive style.It feels like it can just do anything and has no real weaknesses other than the user being outstatted by too much (which is a weakness any style has).
>>286614612>In fact, not a single person until today had ever rivalled Raian in power.I almost wish Raian could've made it further in the tournament just to get humiliated even harder.
>>286617943He was mad that Karla wanted Ohma's dick.The Kenzo thing was just an excuse.
>>286619819>kaburagi
>>286614850ADAMANTINE KATA: BALLS OF STEEL
>>286620204That has nothing to do with Kazzy and his son thoughHe could just have just told Raian to kill Ohma and call it a dayAll this acomplished was torturing Kazzy mentally, and killing your employer because someone vaguely related to him did something you dislike (Ohma didn't even do anything) is a really bad look for an assassin clan
>>286620173R1 Raian could've been a victim Unironically someone like Meguro might've been able to take him. Let alone more technical skilled powerhouses like Okubo.
>>286614970>the Kure clan has lost 4 matches total>Raian was a prodigy of the Kure clanSo... was every previous Kengan tournament full of shitters?Realistically, how many opponents could have defeated Raian?
>>286620278There just aren't that many KATs, especially under the stable reign of Metsudo. Why rock the boat when you're in a good place and business is stable? Also I'd give above-even odds to Kuroki, Agito, Waka, Julius, Kiryu, Bando, and Sen on a good day.
>>286619819>I've even posted "fan theories" based on no understanding of the plot and so far nobody has called me out on itThis would be more impressive if not for the fact that not even Sandro could call you out. After all, he doesn't know yet either (raughs)
>>286615215its just jeet memes, as usual
>>286614453How the fuck do you forget that?
>>286620510Brain damage.
>>286620510Presumably Ohma's trauma over his jobber Master and the presumed constant use of Advance after the fact made Ohma forget stuff, consequently only remembering the stuff that makes beating jobbers really easily though
>>286617142Same.
>>286615025Thanks OP, this fight was fucking SICK. Wish I liked Raian a bit more as a villain, I think if he was a bit less >WAHAHAHAHAHAHA I WANNA KILL EVERYTHINGin the earlier chapters I'd be more attached to him.>>286614954So Setsuna wants Ohma to kill him as punishment? I wonder what he did to think he deserves death. Niko was alive when he already wanted this so it mustn't be to do with that...
>>286614750I remember seeing this in OPTs
I'm bored, tier list, obviously based off their "peak" strength which is why Cosmo is 3 tiers above Adam.>HanafusaI'd have put him higher but he lose without Bando even using his funny arm move from the intro chapter so I have to assume he's not as fast as he first appeared. >KiryuRival buff. I think there's a half decent chance he gets folded by hobo though, given >NezuI was prepared to hear the arguments until Rei's one-shot move got effortlessly no-sold by base form Raian, I'm sorry anons but that boy is WEAK.>>286619819Anon... I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this but... we're all doing that. Noone actually reads Omega.
>>286621119Haru would put up a good fight against a good chunk of your C tier.
>>286620965The whole>fuck techniques I want to outbunga himthing did a lot to make Raian likeable in his defeat imo
>>286621119Interesting. You might be in for a few surprises.
>>286621119>Meguro below Adam, Inaba, Sawada, and ChibaLol, c'mon now. Others are arguable/fair but that's a little silly.
>>286619819>. I've even posted "fan theories" based on no understanding of the plot and so far nobody has called me out on itHard for anyone to call anyone else out on this shit when Omega doesn't have a coherent plot to begin with. The mangaka blatantly writes and rewrites things as he goes along, with no real clear overarching plan.
>>286614533>>286614438Oh shit, it's motherfuckin' Barracuda
>>286614633Same energy
>>286617198...out of ten!
>>286621162This is fair I'm underrating him. >>286621264Meguru was getting handled by Sawada and I'm pretty sure giganigga would have rekt him right at the start of the fight if he wasn't constantly underestimating him.Actually, while I'm here, there's a funny pattern with R1 losers where's there's a bunch of characters that fit the same pattern of having some kind of super-powerful attack that's just there to show off how tanky the person they're fighting is, Kiozan, Gozo, Sawada, Nikaido kinda, and it makes them much harder to tier.

>>286614850>>286614865>>286614879>>286614892"Unfathomably" based.
>>286615006>Get a grip on yourself, Mr. Anon>You can't turn away from "REALITY"
>>286621487>Meguro was getting handled by Sawadaand took no real damage. In total Meguro took 7-9 kicks to the head and he was right as rain against Muteba. Sure Sawada out maneuvered him but he clearly has no good way to take Meguro down and would eventually get caught in some way like this. Meguro has the endurance match in the bag.>I'm pretty sure Giganiga would have rekt him at the startYeah he would've, but he held back as a legendary mercenary for some reason. I'm fairly sure Meguro would've done far better/won if he didn't cash out on a shitty choke after securing the most advantageous position possible round start, but, that's not what happened either way.
>>286617943Basically, they knew he was using a proxy but were insulted that he made zero arrangements to actually meet them in-person.
>>286619819Behold, the fruits of our labor. The ultimate goal of Keng/a/n:"We" have finished "our" group Huisheng. "You" are now "us."
>>286621119Hehehe, Setsuna's bicep is completing the top of Bando's head.
>>286614962The spiral pattern on the cracks is a neat detail
>>286614453i love this page and i love the concept of "that's what martial arts are for" and pretty much this whole fight is awesome. i frequently use the demonstration image in my ai gens when i'm editing them at the end
>>286616662That's not what happened. the .14 seconds was what he needed to basically put him into a 'losing position'. Getting him on the ground, Raian even says "Shit" as he's getting whaled on because the whole ironbreaker revolution was after, but it was too late.
>>286621972It's interesting because I don't think the throw and ironbreaker were quite finisher tier, Raian could probably still walk it off but being on the ground and open for a complete pounding is what actually seals the deal
>>286621993Exactly, the .14 were just long enough to start the process without Raian being able to thwart it in any meaningful way. 'waking up' mid fall only to land on the solid ground with your whole back and immediately pummeled is about as good of a reason to be put back to bed as possible
>>286615025Thanks, OP.I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the next fight Julius wins. The subplot with the burnscar guy seems too important to end in the second round, and while Wakatsuki is cool, he isn't thaaat interesting of a character. We haven't really seen much of Julius yet so I'm excited.
>>286614982i'm starting to see the appeal of the leg wraps
>>286615044Yeah, to the one guy who didn't deserve it.
>>286614982>>286622227What are the leg wraps for?
I know exactly which page, exactly which panel will get the most (You)s in the next dump. "Rare condition with only a few cases"
>>286622305Kek, I think I'm going to go and make a list for that one.
>>286614835Fuck this guys, this should have been the falll of the Kure clan, they are shown trying to kill their employee for petty shit, the peak of their eugenic program just got beaten by some guy with brain damage, this should drag their reputation to the floor.
>>286614879The real hero.
>>286617305Is it hay to do gay things for manly reasons?
>>286620173Raian vs Waka or Julius would be hilarious>Raian talks a lot of shit about physical domination>Julius just picks him up by a limb and slams him into the ground until he stops moving
>>286620239But muh Kure techniques
>>286614794Dang, they are both basically dead. Goodluck to Ohma in the next few rounds with those injuries
>>286622677I mean, he's fighting Cosmo next. Cosmo is basically dead.
>>286622699Wouldnt they substitute him out though? He cant even walk
>>286622717Changing fighters? There is no precedent for that in Kengan, and no legal basis either. Cosmo and Ohma will be sat next to each other and have a slap fight.
>>286622299same appeal as stockings and zr but for athletic women
>>286614794awesome fight
Kure clan should've finished the job
>>286622299Extra grip during leglocks.
>>286614982your 10 years too early to think about babiesgo finish your schoolwork girl
>>286618002>Damn bitch close your legs it's like I'm at a fish market
>>286621812Kek
>>286614538Nice typesetting with weeping willow being distorted by Raian getting flipped
>>286617161I think I liked mellow Ohma when I first read it too it's just that the stoic nice guys shit gets so fucking tiresome in Omega that it made Ashura's version leave a bad taste in my mouth retroactively
>>286623109Ain't no way
>>286622632Waka punching a hole on his chest would have been pretty funny.
>>286619819For Omega, this is the optimal way to experience it
>>286616333https://youtu.be/AOQ83vSmO7I?si=h7G4EJX8e2r298EO
>>286615025100 more chapters before "he" arrives.
>>286620347Largely agreed on that selection, possibly adding Gaolang.
>>286621119Gaolang in the same tier as Gozo? Chiba over Haruo?
>>286623811Raian is annoying and all but I think some of you guys way underrate his raw stats, especially his toughness.
>>286625829Yeah, its basically impossible to actually injure him any meaningful way, the only way to actually win is by knocking his lights out like Ohma did to Seki. I am 99% sure he was ready to fight again the moment he woke up from the beating Ohma gave him (which couldnt have taken more than 5 minutes). I dont remember ever seeing a bandage on him, he is a freak
>>286625829Raian is obviously supposed to be seen as super tough but his feats are pretty unimpressive. He's only shown to be super tanky forget Omega when fighting around his weight class. He went pretty equal against Ohma in exchanging blows and came out better, of course, but still exhuasted. I mean does Ohma get the same praises for tanking that shit and more with his suicidal buff vs Raians easy strength multiplier?
>>286626665By that metric Wakek is the single biggest joke of this tournament.
>>286626665He was facetanking Solomon for a good while who weighed 200kg and was in 100% removal. This was after 3 guys of equivalent weight class was ganging up on him until he was lying in a pool of his own blood. Then he facetanked Edward who was using his Secret art: Supreme Mount Tai Heavenly Yin Yang Golden Jade Fist with 100% removal. He is super tough for a twink whose weight is in the double digits
>>286623603>10 years too earlySo Americans are only interested in 26-year-olds now?
>>286627177spoilers dude, also yeah, people have been saying that for years. That guy who complained about Waka vs Julius being an even fight even though Waka is a experienced martial artist is probably going to have a field day.>>286627616I said to ignore Omega cause we are going into Raian is such a prodigy that playing around with a heavy sword for years gives him principles that are stupidly inconsistent territory. Let alone him ripping Alan in half. Yet he still has even fights with Gaolang. there's no good basing off Omega feats, you'd go insane. It's vibes based at this point.
>>286625829I'll wait until the next fight is underway but I really don't think it's underestimating Raian, but properly estimating either of the next two fighters.
>>286629581>spoilers dudeIf anything the new readers betting on Julius winning will feel vindicated.>also yeah, people have been saying that for years. That guy who complained about Waka vs Julius being an even fight even though Waka is a experienced martial artist is probably going to have a field day.Yeah he got the right idea. Makes sense.
>>286625829I mean, he was able to completely no-sell a kick to the nuts, I doubt any of the other fighters could do that except maybe meguro
>>286630270>He's got the right ideaYeah but he was an annoying ass about it. IIRC he was also ignoring the massive frame and leverage difference between Waka and Julius cause he was super focused on written specs. As if Julius didn't grab Waka by his shins like a baby and hurl him into a wall. Waka does NOT have the arms and hands to do that shit. Plus Julius has a massive wingspan advantage.
>>286627756The age of consent is 28
>>286627756Its economically impossible for 18 year olds to have babies. In fact they are being modest with it, Karla should wait until her mid 30s
>>286627756Mid to late 20s is the ideal time to have kids
Julius would RAPE and GAPE Raian.
>>286634326I sure do love "grapes"
Julius is about musclesRaian is about violencePeople misunderstand this. There are plenty ways to defeat Julius without besting his stats. Blind and deafen him, bleed him dry, trp him up.
>>286635012>Blind and deafen him>Bleed him dry>Tie him upYou are one kinky fuck god damn.
>>286635012Sounds like loser shit, Raian almost never goes for weak spots. Mokichi went for the eye, did Raian go for his eye? Ohma kicked him in the balls, did Raian kick Ohma in the balls? Raian would simply trade blows with Julius like a real man
>>286617794you could try this by pulling your legs close to your chest and flexing them really hard. You dont only produce movement by leverage, you can also do it with rotation.Imagine cheating at pullups, same principle.or jumping up from laying on the floor by raising your legs.Its a kip-up basically:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNX8hK7gH7Q
>>286635488Such a high level exchange!
>>286635012>There are plenty ways to defeat Julius without besting his stats.Shame Raian's pride would stop him from actually doing stuff like that because blinding someone or binding their limbs isn't the same as overpowering them with sheer force. We just saw him realizing he was losing a battle and still choosing to stick to his "policy" even though it resulted in his loss. if the two were to meet in this tournament, I'm betting everything on the German strongman.
>>286614403God Wakatsuki is so hot
>>286615060I don't like it myself because I tend to dislike mirror matches. What makes fighting manga like this interesting is seeing what happens when you put two people with totally different fighting styles up against one another. Wakatsuki and Julius both being giant strongmen means that their strength really loses its emphasis, so they're both less special.
>>286636662>Wakatsuki and Julius both being giant strongmen means that their strength really loses its emphasis, so they're both less special.It's the opposite because it emphasizes Wakatsuki's actual skill and tactics compared to true brute force like Julius. The only problem I had is that this fight comes right after Ohma ve Raian which is also similarly themed.
Are there any matchups you think would've been better than what we got in the tournament? I would've preferred to have Kaneda fight someone like Julius or Waka, and Cosmo to actually fight someone who's a more notorious killer like Muteba instead of the autist cop who just so happened to snap in his match against him.
>>286636639I wonder if her dad ever let her see him fight.
>>286618151>HeadcanonNiko literally told him he was a constructed hallucination earlier. The actual Niko was wordier, for example. It isn't an actual force ghost.
>>286631725Julius' balls shrunk so much he wouldn't even feel it
>>286635543Raian is like Akoya in the sense that they would both easily make it to R3 if they didn't have their deranged personalities
>>286636878There are a lot of fights that would have been super fun. Sekiyabashi vs Agito in particular comes to mind as one that could have been great. Muteba vs Akoya had a lot of potential. Hatsumi vs Raian would have been solid.
>>286636878I want to see Rei fight Julius just to watch him break his hands on that brick wall.Pure strength vs pure speed.
>>286637535He'd just concuss him. Being strong doesn't mean his brain isn't still mush in fluid.
>>286635488This feels like 3 episodes worth of Jojo. Old anime didn't waste time.
>>286637611>implying Julius' brain isn't as jacked as his bodyThat man works out at the gym AND the library. /fitlit/ as fuck
>>286636878kaneda needs to tank a few hits before he can start putting up a fight. if he went against julius or waka the match would be over immediately, no?
>>286636878Akoya vs Raian could have been cool.
>>286616026We really stopped caring.
>>286637772Waka scales down his punches because he's not going against THE Murobuchi Gozo
>>286616026Me too, but it's not hard to see why considering it was a Ryuki meme and Sandro got tired of him several dozen chapters in.
>>286637676you clearly have not watched many old anime
>>286617352That was business
>>286618151It's a silly manga, but it's not THAT silly.
>>286619819That's very sad if true. You should probably get a better hobby.
>>286635641Thanks for the nostalgia, I remember how being able to do this move made the difference between the talented beginners and the shitters. Must've taken a million of these to get it right.
>>286636839What's worse is that Wakek had both Karate and Judo and still struggled this fucking much, only to OHKO julius with a simple mawashigeri.
>>286635641Is there a Danberu chapter about this?
>>286637103>>286639843"Headcanon" meant that you were attributing the retcon to tulpa-Niko purposely presenting two different version, instead of Sandro's laziness.
>>286619819As expected of another "me". Now this is what "I" call perfect sync.
>>286630270>If anything the new readers betting on Julius winning will feel vindicated.We oldfags should try to be as misleading as possible to newbies
>>286614612>the kure are israelisexplains the incest at least
New thread, "me"s.>>286641140
>>286635488>guy who gets knoife loses
>>286614910>shirt partially unbuttonedahhh the old break and rape
>>286617943>He literally didn't even do anything though, right? Like I legitimately can't remember what even started the Kure's feud with this son. Felt like they just sperged out.The guys who are willing to fuck a whole contract over a clan grudge probably like demanding client transparency.
