>>287780268
>>287780280
>>287780290
>>287780298Poor Ken. All he wanted to do was join the Karate club
>>287780310
>>287780320And that's the chap>>287780265This is different. Ken already knew the kuremisago existed didn't he?
what happened to this
>>287780347That's just Kenichi with his normal ki.
>>287780347This is the literal next page
>>287780194Well, Kushinada mastered it. Junazad only pulled it off from the neck up
>>287780078/g/ has gone too far
>>287780049SHINPAKU! SHINPAKU!
>>287780397Seeing this makes me realize how much younger Miu looks in the new artstyle. She looks like a grown woman here
This might be the only manga that after 500 chapters, the characters still live in the same place and the setting doesn't change
>>287780147enter
>>287780265Hi Translator behind this here. Yes it is I just fucked up due to feeling like shit. Mb! Atm everything has been fixed here:https://cubari.moe/read/gist/cmF3L0tva2lLb2kvS29pUG9uZE1hbmdhL3JlZnMvaGVhZHMvbWFpbi9LZW5pY2hpJTIwMi5qc29u/6/1/
>>287780280my man ma>>287780329I cAN SEE THE NIPPLES GIVE ME THE PHYSICAL VERSION
>>287780397anon did you forget that guy between master and disciple class? kenichi effortlessly did what he couldn't.
>>287780067How great would Shigune footjob be?
>>287780259His mind is constantly running Othello games, he has to beat her someday.
>>287780147why does he look like this?
>>287780194Wait...this is the plot of the Condor Heroes novel. Basically everyone want the Nine Yin Manual, a super awesome martial art book. Just study it a bit could greatly improve your martial art.
>>287780217but aren’t they already mixing their martial arts with ki?
>>287780495the author is just asking to get axed again.
>>287780397damn i really wish women like miu were real
>>287780666but does he want to win?>>287780687Its not uncommon for martial arts stuff to have somethign like that>>287780691It's to enhance the ki itself
>>287780709>Its not uncommon for martial arts stuff to have somethign like thatI just notice the part where everyone just learn a bit of scroll and already became bullshit overpower. A common trope that no one ever manage to read the whole thing and they usually doesn't understand the true meaning of the manual.
>>287780310>>287780320
>>287780709>It's to enhance the ki itselfFeels like Matsuena is about to introduce a new power system...
>>287780789Is it time for ken-chan to Dai?
>>287781140well considering his other work with actual supernatural is already part of the same world its very likely for it to happen
>>287780310I kinda want to see a spin-off alt-universe manga where Kenichi surrenders to Daimonji and leaves the club, and then the manga could follow what his adult life would have looked like.
Why is this getting a sequel?
>>287780329Thanks for the dumpI look forward to Kenichi chapters every week now, feels great to have a manga like that again
>>287780329Thanks for the dump anon, it's so weird I haven't watched the show in decades but I can hear the Apa's and the tantrum noises clearly in my head.
stop spamming the same pics every single thread
>>287780280Even Shigure...
>>287781528Why not?
>>287783513fair enough.
>>287780703it didn't get axed due to sales. there actually aren't that many manga nowadays that sell like kenichi used to (100+k per volume). nowadays they're pretty happy with a series that sells even tens of thousands of copies.
>>287780049Great, because of the break and golden week i wasn't expecting a chapter this week.>>287780194>Kuremisago Scroll.This thing is too overpowered, Kushinada without it is already Elder level, and while Miu's Dad was at the same level as his rival he himself said that he still isn't the same as Elder. So we have a scroll that can power up Elder, Ouganosuke Yogi (Weapons division leader) and Kushinada. Would've thought the scroll would make both One-Shadow-Nine-Fist guys at least on the level of those three, assuming they had access to it since they where the Kuremisago leaders.
>>287784381>Kushinada without it is already Elder levelI dont think so
>>287780703It wasn't a sales problem it was a retard that axed several works just so he could introduce a bunch of a failures in their place
>>287780310>martial art gangsNigga, you straight fought against ancient global hoplo-anarchists on their way to kickstart yet another world war. Don't put yourself down like that.
>>287781528Like the other anon said, why not? It only ended in the first place because the editor-in-chief for Sunday kinda strong armed him into ending it so he could make a new series for that big 55th anniversary gimmick that almost killed the magazine. Kenichi was still doing well when it was "axed" and would have kept going if someone competent was in charge of the magazine at the time. I don't blame him for going back to what he probably considers his life work that he couldn't end on his own terms.
>>287784797Indeed a bunch of household works got the axed as they tried to "modernize" which ended up being a complete failure.
>>287780067Fist panel of Apachai looking like his old self.
I want to have steamy sex with Miu
>>287780147Hey Tanimoto, new haircut?>>287780260I'd say his tsun has cooled off>>287780298Played him like a damn fiddle>>287780329Thanks anon>>287781140Well we already have tiers of masters and levels of ki manipulation What's one more?
I know this is the sequel but it still feels so weird how affectionate Miu is for Kenichi and how everyone is praising his skills and openly saying he has some master like reflexes nowI'm so used to everyone going "ha you're nowhere close" and his romance with Miu being slow
>>287780147brother in law
>>287781528Maybe author read a lot of cultivation novels and got new ideas to work with.
The first arc is Ninja Scroll?
>>287780329THAT Master and THAT Disciple will show up?!>>287787053yup
>>287787278"evil" is on the move
did kenichi make a comeback?
>>287780298Fucking ninjas, man, i swear.
>>287780280This is definitely one of those "we can't let him become overconfident" things. He might have been maimed, but die? Not a chance.
>>287786695Maybe getting the first manga yanked out from under him lit a fire under his ass and he isn't taking any chances this time?
>>287780310Martial arts gangs is really underselling Yomi lol
>>287780067I keep getting these waves of nostalgia every time I see them.
>>287780280Honestly, the cheap shots are probably the only reason the guy was even able to touch Kenichi. The guy is nothing compared to Yomi members.
>>287786695I'm not sure if it's overdoing it but I find it refreshing. A lot of these manga kick the protag back to square 1, Kenichi going through the events of the OG manga actually meant something.
>>287780147Protect your imotos at all cost!
>>287789782I was fearing this since Kenichi's slow progress was one of the best aspects of the original manga. It's good that we avoided this.Now we only need to fear Mecha-Shou.
>>287780268Pfft Ken has died a dozen times already. Big deal
>>287790307>>287780054Yeah, them worrying about a couple broken ribs seems odd. But to be honest, during the first part the only injuries were bruisings or clinical flatline death. So we are now in some middle ground of damage.
>>287790303You mean pray for the glorious return of Shou.
>>287789782Yeah it's not bad or anything, just takes getting used to since I'm so used to the usual way
>>287786695Yeah, it feels just yesterday that he was getting clowned on for having no talent, he was losing to a kid, and Miu was treating him like the house pet.Our boy has made it (to the halfway point)
>>287790644>>287790303You mean GoDnosuke
Can't wait to see Renka
>>287781528>Manga was canceled due to the editors' selfishnessAnd that's the only answerDeal with it
>>287780194If this scroll is so important, why didn't Miu's father or mother hide it or use it for themselves? Or why Elder didn't just brute force his way into taking the scroll?
>>287793138Elder is too busy letting mass killers run free, as for why the mother and father didn't get close enough of the clan elders
>>287780092I remember when Tanimoto was like "I don't trust doctors!" after being treated at Akisame's "clinic" and they were like: I am an acupunturist and he is a chiropractor.Meaning: Ah, don't worry we are fucking quacks that don't practice real medicine.
>>287793719This is something that never bothered me 10 years ago for some reason. Elder is just there doing heroic stuff in the background while letting the main villain group do its thing. As an author having a nigh invincible character in the good guys as decoration is really awkward. In Ruroken you have Kenshin's master who is a tier above all characters and Watsuki stated how hard it was to just not have this dude beat everyone and save the day, so he made him a jaded hermit who helps as a deus ex machina occasionally. Also it was implied that had Shishio beat Kenshin he would had dealt with Shishio himself.
>>287793918Usually it would be enough if the character isn't super inflexible and is more down to earth, it's much less likely to cause this problem and it doesn't really stop from the character from having personal values and stuff like that
>>287793918>We should throw nukes because our strength is superior>Retaliation? What's that?
>>287780092>ugh... I probably shouldn't ask what's in this...>probably some dog meat and gutter oil, I know that's what you people loveJesus, Kenichi
>>287780654You wouldn't even last 5 seconds. She would be that good.
>>287794066The elder is not an indiscriminate force like a nuke.
>>287780092She doesn't like the ideas that Kenichi in a collar is putting in her head.
>>287793918I think the Elder still works as Yami has a few people at or near his level, enough that it limits his ability to deal with them. Battles are also treated as fights of philosophy too, gives the whole series this "you need to fight your own fights to prove your way is right" kind of vibe. The Elder seems similar to the jaded hermit but different as it's more like the elder not wanting to get in the way of those kind of fights rather than just not caring about the conflict. I think the series uses these two ideas effectively enough for limiting the Elder.
>>287780147Saiga Tanimoto.
>>287795089Natsu Longfacemoto.
>>287780691They are but it basically gives an even better version of Kenichi's freak regen from the shady medicine.
>>287780147Fake Hermit!
>>287780067Shigure continuing to be absolute best girl.
>>287780049oh yeah
>>287793918It makes more sense if you read this through the lens of a cultivation series.The elder is the grand ancestor, indisputably the strongest, but him becoming involved would prompt others of his own level to leave their seclusion and likewise become involved. Regardless of who wins in a fight at that level, neither side would be able to safeguard their disciples, so ultimately it's a lose-lose situation because the next generation is what matters more than the fight itselfThe elder's backing prevents a rival expert just hyperdunking Miu and Ken, but other opposed disciples are likewise protected by the backing of their own daoist masters. Mutually Assured Destruction, the Elder is a martial arts nuke, but he's not the only one.
>>287780092voodoo doll long time no see
>>287780147He does look weird. Well whatever welcome back brother-in-law!
>>287795423His face is rounder. Honoka has been cooking for him, diet has done him well!
>>287780106What's the name of that face anyway?
>>287780249Ogata's rubbing off.
>>287780298All according to plan.
>>287780329Thanks for the dump.
>>287780512Ok. Thanks for the translation anon.
>>287794615But the weapons division had its own Elder.
>>287780329>Will THAT master and disciple of the one shadow nine fists make an appearance?!Saiga and Kajima next week?
this is fucking garbage
Kenichi lives with Shigure who is constantly showing skin, and Miu who constantly cradles him. He must masturbate all the time
>>287780194Calling it now, by the end of the series is gonna have scanned and published this scroll.
>>287795956That is what kneading ki means
>>287795956>risking the masters catching him mid-wankhe would never. That's why he's so high strung
If we get to chapter 10 without some Kisara I might start going through withdrawal
>>287780067 I love Apachi.
Okay, does author have hentai series he has drawn? I need not-Mui getting fucked!
Do you think there's going to be more supernatural stuff in this sequel?
>>287780320They should train too Mikumo handed their asses to them.
>>287798389jokes on you. Ma got the final hand on ass
>>287795352Which is kind of funny because we saw the Elder going off on randon missions all the time yet his only other equal, Yogi, was so secluded people thought he was a myth. He was not going around wreacking katsujinken shit.
>>287798389>>287798411Honestly I would not go as far as Mikumo. No one in Ryozanpaku sans the Elder can beat Roar Kensei 1 on 1. They'll get fucking blasted like office guy.
>>287780067>that ShigureI M A G I N EMAGINE
>>287798412It's not like the elder only fights satsujinken in his travels. In fact, from what is inferred from the Apachai flashback, he helps regardless of whether martial arts are involved or not.
>>287799427>That sleight of hand.
>>287787053Let's hope this isn't the only arc
I want more Miu focus.
>>287780147Kenichi's brother-in-law is here finally.
>>287797105Nope. Just like Hiro Mashima. Draws the hottest girls, never made porn outside of their private collection
>>287797105Not only does he not draw porn, all the available porn of this series that I found sucks and the girls are all drawn off model. This series needs a Yamamoto
>>287780147He looks like Miu's dad now
Will he finally reveal who Sasaki's sister is
Where's the skin?Half the point of kenichi was the sexy women
>>287800461read the previous chapters instead of asking dumb shit
>>287780147LOLICON VEGETA HAS FINALLY RETURNEDWhat happened to his hair?
caught up with the new chapters since I didn't realise they were already outman I missed this goofy shit
>>287786695These are all consistent to around the halfway point in the original manga. He and Miu have been in a relationship for all intents and purposes since they kinda confessed to each other and the masters have been almost openly praising him for a while.The weird thing would be to undo all that and return to the previous status quo.
>>287801068it's a wig, he went bald just like vegeta
>>287780268>killer instinctShould a member of the Katsujinken really be saying such things?
>MMA fights becoming mainstream already forgotten in favor of chasing the Ninja PieceMeh, I wanted to see Supreme Commander Nijima in Joe Rogan's podcast discussing kung-fu terrorist shadow goverment and wild fauna power levels
>>287780147Its the head being so big and the hair being slightly shorter thats weird
>>287795738Seems logical since it is about Ninja's unless they really do go with the "Actually Ouganosuke had a disciple and he's thr strongest he just didn't show up on the final battle for reasons"
>>287798426If Kensei turned into a woman Ma would be able to fight him
>>287803002Would Kenichi fight Kensei if Kensei turned into a woman?
>>287795738Diego quality chapter incoming.
Will Kenichi continue to allow himself to get hit and injured before he decides to lock in?
>>287800461This chapter had male fanservice to balance out the sexiness in the previous chapters.
>>287798389They’ll become stronger than her once they get the scroll.
>>287780687They are reasonably popular in other Asian countries.>>287780709>Its not uncommon for martial arts stuff to have somethign like thatThe novels created those tropes.
Funny how the artstyle changed because it's been years so every character looks different, except for Miu and Shigure's proportions are still very accurate.Has he EVER messed up with the women's proportions and accidentally forgot to give Miu her trademark fat ass? I guess he never forgot what truly matters huh
>>287804239he kept drawing shigure even before this because she's his waifu
>>287780054>Already reintroducing the mastersOkay, this was a thing in the original but what is this obsession with reintroducing everyone in the dojo every ten or so chapters. It's not even that the previous arc ended or even a volume cut off.
>>287804362Both Miu and Shigure are in every other series he made too. Different hair colors but otherwise the same designs. So he never forgot how to draw them
>>287786695To be fair he is in the experts league now I assume so he will probably be facing the dudes that are almost at Master level soon
>>287800402Popular meme theory is that it's Kenichi's mom
Imo, the art style change is pretty noticeable even compared with Kimi wa 008 and Tokiwa Kitareri. Those two look like late kenichi, which was not very good honestly. This one is like a mix of early and late kenichi, with long round faces. And I don’t know the reason. 3D models/reference tracing? Assistant drawing? AI?
>>287805136>3D models/reference tracingwhen in doubt, blame thiseverything is digital now, and almost all of it looks like ass
>>287803488>Diego Carlo managed to snatch the scroll and will award it to the winner of a phony tournamentDo it
Do you guys think Senzui will turn out to survive the nuke? His backstory and reveal were so rushed
>>287807471Rocket fuel fire can't melt plot armor bad guys.
>>287780320>>287780310>>287780290I fucking love these idiots. Kenichi is like a little brother to them
>>287809211Soon
>>287780132>mattakumoMiu is like three times cuter. Glad she’s back to her classic hair also, she was good regardless but I think Matsuena changed her hairs to save time and efforts. I think he will probably change them again.
>>287780078How is he always building this shit if they are broke
>>287811144her classic hair is shit
>>287811528Acquired taste imo
>>287780054Is 100 dan the maximum you can achieve in martial arts? I mean, he's been '100 dan brawler' for three years already. He stagnated since he met talentless kenichi.
>>287809211>Main crush he can't even kiss because her grandfather is the strongest being in the world>Girl who has the hots for him with amazing tits is also incredibly abusive and beats the shit out of him everytime she feels embarrassed>Other girl who crushed on him is in an evil karate cult with an abusive master>Doesn't even notice the one normal girl who likes himKenichi's romance life sucks
>>287811144Yeah, she looks really cute in the big panel on that page
>>287812409We already know he trained his way into the most average superhuman and married his crush though, so i think he did decently fine.
>>287811528That's such a hot take
>>287803012No, Kenichi's chivalrous misoginy is too strong.
>>287812772This page has always looked so weird that I kept thinking it was porn.
>>287796102I see your prediction, and raise you that it's already being dripfed to the world via that martial arts book series that Kenichi reads.
>>287813088Then would Kenichi fight Miu if Miu became a man?
>>287805136Different assistants, maybe.
>>287812402It means he's a 100th degree black belt, which is already made up
>>287814789Yes.
I'm surprised Matsuena never did a joke where Kenichi fights a disguised opponent, they start viewing each other as rival halfway through, and then she later reveals she's a woman after he beats her, and then gets really confused when Kenichi suddenly starts angsting really hard.
>>287780329My body ACHES with the need to ruin Mius perfect genetics
>>287812772He should get all of them
I need more big ninja tits
>>287813390You and me anon
There are ninjas inside Shinpaku's HQ right now
>>287780067>Nin-Nin!
>>287780260>Tanimoto is leaving us behindPoetic
>>287780268>there's some empty space in this last panel>the perfect place from Shigure cake
>>287819267Horror Vacui over Ma.
>>287812772Renka's outfit is ridiculous. Makes me feral
>>287780329Miu, you've gotten soft. You went from smiling and encouraging Kenichi's training to now getting worried if he even gets a papercut. I knew she was the type to baby her boyfriend
>>287816621We kinda had that with Li Raichu, but it's not that funny a situation.
>>287819442She feels bad cause she fucked up in this situation. It was not just "cmon those were just five yakuza goons with mac-10s, you silly thing"
Remind me, why isn't kenichi one shotting everyone that isn't a master again?
>>287820004He is a talentless expert.
>>287820004Because everyone is moving parallel to him.
>>287812402Dan means black belt level, you start off as a white belt then when you're considered to be technically proficient you're promoted to first degree black belt. Second and third degree are basically improved technical proficiency. Fourth and fifth are more about improving your teaching ability, and everything from 6th to 10th degree is more about your position in the hierarchy of the organisation.So first degree is like a uni degree, second is a masters, third is a PHD, fourth and fifth are about becoming a professor/lecturer, and then 6-10 are about whether you're the dean of a university or whatever. Some McDojos will go bananas with 15th or 20th degree black belt grandmasters of whatever but that's just ridiculous branding. 100 degrees is a meme, it's like calling yourself the Emperor of the Galaxy or something, he only does it to boast about how many street fights he's had. It's intentionally ludicrous.
>>287794136"If it has four legs and is not a chair, if it flies and is not a plane, if it is underwater and not a submarine, the Cantonese will eat it."
>>287820004Kenichi isn't a master yet he's "just" an expert and I'm guessing those guys he just fought were either very high disciple or experts themselves. Kenichi is basically where phone guy was when we first met him.
>>287812402Self proclaimed* no institution gave him such degree.
>>287812402No, the martial arts fad died ages ago cause of UFC, and that died to ninjutsu. Sakaki is just a boomer with a trans am.>>287812409Kenichi had the better romance. I rather take this than Naruto or Ichigo
>>287821532>dream of Shigure titsShigure still has a chance!
>>287821545>Kenichi still tries to strike MiuHow come he avoids doing this on every girl except his literal girlfriend? Why is it okay to attack his girlfriend and only his girlfriend?
>>287812409>>Doesn't even notice the one normal girl who likes himHonestly, that part of the manga just makes Kenichi come off as a bit of an inattentive, insensitive asshole to me, even if that wasn't the intent. I hope Matsuena gives Izumi a proper closure, because Kenichi needs to acknowledge that there was somebody who loved him even as his weak self all along.
>>287821697Just a small preview of their future relationships. Brutally pinning her down and half choking her, manhandling her all over the room, and she will love it.
>>287821697Because a true, chivalrous knightly man beats no other woman but his wife, who is merely an extension of him. Trying to grope other woman is fine, though.
