Liu is literally the only character left with some crumble of pathos to him. He should get out of the manga right after he beats Nicolas so Sandro can't ruin him.

True.
Seriously, just the fact Liu had to keep fighting with a handicap instead of going 'Niko Style: Namekian Regen' to unfuck his hand make it a massive improvement.

yeah that's why it's a headcanon friendship
liu's motivation here is ridiculous when held under scrutiny. supposedly he's fighting for his purgatory friends but one of them went super saiyan then died, and one of them literally used his dying breath to warn liu about not trusting the last one. it's fucking retarded

>>286659034
just because liu is separated from a lot of the main plotlines doesn't intrinsically mean his writing is better in any way, shape, or form
that's why i was bemoaning how far we done fell, to pretend that this grade-Z plot thread was good

>>286658871
Pretending the friendship didn't count and that he's not allowed to care for them show you're retarded, not that this is bad

It only feels good because Nicholas is so fun but the fight itself is terrible. "I got beaten to a pulp offscreen but now i magically win since its onscreen"

I think the choreography of the recent chapters is better than what it used to be. Did Sandro finally get a competent editor or something? Same editor but sales dropped so he slapped Sandro?

That's a hassle to do even if they're martial arts masters. Naidan should've just gotten thin cuts so they can just dip it into the broth. Then again, seems like no one has any idea with what they're doing here.

It would've been a decent chapter if not for the fact that this whole fight is just Sandro's attempt to close Liu's arc in the laziest way. Nicolas is, just like Luohan, a lightning rod to make sure there's no ill will towards Shen and Yan

It was alright, its not normal that hits actually land and do damage so its a tad refreshing. Maybe Sandro is reading the dailies who knows.

It wasn't bad but the fight still does the omega thing where the big hits just land without one of the guys trying to block or dodge them for no apparent reason.
>>286657606
>>286657649
This exchange is good because each panel flows into the next so you can follow the action, and you can see how Liu baited Nicholas by sacrificing his arm to deliver a strong blow without the latter being able to avoid it
>>286657759
This exchange is shit because all you see is Nicholas going SHYEEAAAHH and then getting kicked in the head in the very next panel.
Yes, he got baited into attacking but you don't see liu dodging and countering, it's just see Nicholas standing there and taking the hit.
>>
I get that Liu is a good character and people like him, but it's still hard for me to enjoy the chapter when half of the fight was skipped, Nicolas hasn't even used his Sahate and Liu's shoes just disappear. Then again, compared to the usual Omega chapter, you could say "we" are "eating good meat"
>>
>>286664627

Just ask Fei or Liu to cut them with their scissorhands
>>
>>286657878
Liu doesn't know that
>>
>>286662106
Liu feels like the only real character with actual goals and motivations and somewhat realistic reaction to things. Ohma doesn't feel like a human character with how much he flipflops and attentionwhores (remember that, I dont need the connector to train me, then immediately does it when Koga wants to?) and Koga/Ryuki have been consumed by Ohma/Shen's orbit. Shen is just a terrible character because of how Sandro flipflops between him being a inhuman fairy without normal morals or actually a heckin nice guy despite being the leader of a terrorist cult organization.

Liu is actually badly affected by this because I can't see him narratively facing Shen/Yan without it destroying his character.
>You're strong Liu... But it's not actually Shen's fault!
Then they pin the sins on the fucking monkey worm or something and Liu forgives Yan/Shen

>>286665812
He was circling around to the side with Liu’s paralyzed arm and I’m guessing the intent was that he was trying to get in close enough where a kick wouldn’t be effective, which would kind of make sense, but he had no reason to assume that high kicks weren’t part of Liu’s arsenal.

Liu finally hit puberty.
>>
People are being gaslit by the fact that Liu is one of the last remaining characters we don't hate. Fight-wise, this is no better than Raian and Gaolang's high level exchange.
It's impossible to tell if Liu is using some 4000 year old Chinese sorcery to land these hits, or what. Last chapter had Nicolas react and comment on the punch being slow, only to get hit anyway, so is it the same with the kick? Did ChatGPT forget? If Liu has some new gimmick, shouldn't it be alluded to even slightly by now?
>>286664435
This. Characters just magically teleport into their hits half the time nowadays, there's no choreography or setup because that confuses the AI. Nicolas forgot his bullshit blood vessel touch of death now that it's time for him to lose.
>>
>The standards are so low in Omega that a fight that just is inoffensive is considered good.

>the fuck is this, some gag...oh.

>>
>>286663873
They were lying to Liu yes, but friendship isn't always an equal relationship. He genuinely liked and respected them as fellow fighters and enjoyed their times being idiots together, simple as, even if they didn't feel the same way as him his friendship was real. Also they all died/schizoed out before they could betray him personally so other than fibbing about their feelings they didn't really do anything wrong to Liu.
>>
Woah, I thought that was for my personal reasons, but looks like it's a consensus that this was somewhat a fine chapter.

Liu vs Nitoku was my favorite from Omega, i had to say goodbye to someone in my life by the time that chapter was released and all that "partings take too much" really got to me. Please, just this time have mercy and don't ruin It ALL, Sandro.

Just started reading Tenkaichi (yes, I know I'm late, but my backlog is clogged, and I only managed to reach Tenkaichi now).
Is it just me or is Musashi's design in this inspired by Ohma?
I know for a fact that historical depictions of Musashi don't give him that messy seaweed hair that Ohma has (he typically has a ponytail or a bun). It has to be some kind of an allusion/inspiration, right?

>>
I'm still in shock that we got a "good" chapter. Some SoL with characters who shouldn't have died that's actually charming, a fight that actually has a moment of choreography instead of formless blobby strike spam, both characters getting visibly damaged and trading hits.
The fight still isn't good though, what with Real Nic suddenly throwing up a million jobber flags and losing just because, but it's probably the best chapter we've gotten since Koga vs Ryuki.

Seeing it on the draft here I checked back on the previous pages to make sure and you can actually see him take it off. It's obsecured by the weeds but you can see a space between the lineart for the foot and the shoe. On another panel you can see his feet have the same texture as the rest of his leg, so he wasn't wearing them then.
So yeah, he did take them off. It was just too subtle to immediately notice.

Was the implication meant to be that the other half of the Connector, whose name I have forgotten, Fu Shen or whatever the fuck, is a lot more aggressive and thus Ryuki being aggressive would have made the brain transfer go more smoothly or something? I genuinely have no fucking clue what the finer plot points are any more.

>>286678906
I still don't understand what Luohan's motivation is. Sandro wants to believe that he is LE EBIL and that sissy hypno will make him God once he finishes memorising Shen's PDF file, but his MO seems to be politely asking people to help him out, handing off information about inhuman clone experiments to people wronged by Shen, and doing whatever Yan tells him from killing the rest of the Worm to NOT abusing the nukes.

Like if he wanted the memories so badly, why didn't he simply threaten Yan with the nukes the moment they gave him them? Why did they give this evil scum villain the nukes anyway?

>He is Wasted Potential: The Character
This is so many Omega characters I can't even begin to list them all. I like Lolong BECAUSE he's unintentionally incredibly funny and says some of the dumbest shit in the series with a straight face and deadly serious conviction. Sandro wants readers to believe that this guy is an intimidating badass when he's actually a short lightweight that comes off as a weird excitable autist. It doesn't make me hate him it's just funny.

One of my favourite changes? about Lolong after Purgatory is how much more cheerful and cocky and jokey he has become. It makes him even more silly and his whole fighting history and shit even more hilarious in retrospection. It makes me think he was just taking the absolute fucking piss out of people in Purgatory all while knowing he was just (probably) like an okay fighter at best.

I like him because he's the perfect example of Omega's bizarre writing.
To this day I can't tell if Sandro legitimately wants us to think he's strong or if he's some kind of galaxy brained meta joke.
He's written so badly that it loops all the way back around into being genius.
So now he's probably my favorite character because I know he'll never achieve anything yet we'll be told how important and powerful he is whenever he's present.
Only Sandro could write a character who supposedly has more wins than anyone else in the cast and went undefeated his whole life prior to meeting ohma, yet on a meta level the audience considers him an underdog when he fights.

my favorite is when they talked about how he was the only one to fight Gensai to a draw, and then they flashbacked to the fight and it was revealed it was just interrupted before Gensai could whoop him

It's blatantly obvious that while the concept of Ohma/Ryuki being cloned to be bodyjacked by some hidden superboss was in the cards from the start of Omega at least, Sandro kept changing his mind on the exact means that the Worm was planning to use.
First we had the cyberbrain, Sandro spent time early on hyping this up only to years and hundreds of chapters later, have Shen just go "I changed my mind lmao" as his mouthpiece.
Then we had Huisheng, a more vaguely defined, almost spiritual possession. This was introduced during KvP when Naidan's fight was, so I'm guessing that was supposed to be the point of Naidan killing himself, to test Ryuki's compatibility with the personality that was going to take his body.
But because Sandro changed his mind again, Naidan's death has literally ZERO purpose, there's no cope that can explain it. Shen's actual plan is to LITERALLY SCOOP HIS BRAIN OUT AND PUT HALF OF HIS IN. Ryuki's own personality and bloodlust doesn't matter because his consciousness would literally just be gone. The only factor that would matter is the DNA matching, and the Worm had already tested his DNA before Naidan killed himself, so....

The hype won't be restored until we reach the next plot twist or panel soaked in retardation.
"I'll leave it open to interpretation" was close but that was more like open disdain for the audience than dumb.
We need Koga to fold Tiger Niko mid diff or Luohan to die having accomplished nothing or Gilbert to die only to reveal there was another clone of Eddie waiting to replace him and he's totally stronger than Eddie and Gilbert combined trust me guys for real this time.

Luohan is a tragic character. Right now it looks like the only reason Shen hates Luohan is because Luohan reminds him of when he was "aberrant" aka zesty in a previous iteration of his life. What's the worst thing Zesty Shen could have done when Shen himself is a murderer running a cult? There's also the matter of Luohan doing kind things for others like hooking up Tiger Shen with a job and rescuing Ohma and Ryuki as babies.

Sandro wants Lolong to be an S tier jobber even though we already know how strong characters like Ohma and Agito are. Even so Sandro wanks Lolong way too hard which is why his defeats look so stupid. He bashed Agito in the head multiple times, he brought Ohma to his knees, it's never enough, then he goes down to a normal looking punch.

Lolong... come... top...

Judging by how Rolon offscreened Toa and Liu, I think he has some kind of damage bonus against people that actively seethe against him. Agito won because he didn't allow himself to get baited too badly.

I'd rather realcolas win so fakecolas can get his groove back, it'd be straight up pathetic to have someone not involved in his backstory beat him

Don't worry, once Liu beats Realcolas, he'll become a Nicolas himself. And then Jean can beat Nicolas(Liu)

Fakecolas is barely even a character, he is a guy that we ended up with after we got told he was just pretending to be the character everyone liked

Bold of you to assume Sandro would let Fakecolas do anything after utterly humillating him
