Chapter 118: Another Ability
>>288473286telepath-terashi learned from lolong, Okubo didn't say any of the vibration stuff out loud...
>>288473344Indeed.
>>288473344Hands down Kengan worst character. A literal plot device.
>>288473230Dosukoi!
>>288473305Gohan calvo...>>288473334handsome!! a face we've seen before huh...
>>288473280>he vibrated his trunk to cushion the damageSo tired of it man.I'd honestly prefer the baki style loldidnthurt non explanation to this.
>>288473268it always makes me laugh when nips think that telling scary stories will "cool you down," even though shivering is meant to heat your body temperature up
>>288473334He should have worn a mask beneath his mask
>>288473291>>288473301>hexs self from dodgingIt's so nice of the legendary assassin who is somehow an amateur at hand-to-hand combat to handicap himself.
>>288473325he's doing jabs instead of telegraphed kicks now
>>288473320OH MY GOD IT'S A WORM CLONE OF AGITO HE'S GONNA->>288473334Never mind it's just some guy we've never seen before who was wearing a mask to trick you into reading each week so you could find out who it was.
>>288473438Koga and Kazzy got powercrept. This is never brought up again, ever.
>>288473344Her torso is loooong.
>>288473426>those hexagonsAnother herald of doom.
"We" have "arrived".
>>288473286>ominous line that means absolutely nothing
>>288473305>he can't dodge those even if he sees them coming>>288473409>I can see them coming so I can dodge themMy god one fucking chapter is all it took
>>288473257the hitachi magic wand...is strong.
>>288473257FUCKING STUPID BULLSHIT
>>288473438>>288473447>Imperial Eyenever heard that one before. iirc this was a stretch where we were completely off of raws/thread translations thanks to China having a tantrum over Liu being Taiwanese. It was always Emperor's Eye in threads. Also what a horrible job Hanafusa, your patient is essentially crippled for life and can't use his eyes more than an hour a day?
>>288473447>getting compared to Kogaso fucking over for Tereshi
>>288473185my daddy taught me a way to FIGHT without tearin the skin Okubo
>>288473516Fucking idiot
Art is looking really fucking bad, worse than usual ngl.
Chapter 119: Inadequate
>>288473257>>288473268What a fucking waste of a fight. Imagine having a full year to plan out a fight idea and this is the best Sandro could come up with. Well, I know that Sandro doesn't plan, but it still doesn't excuse how this is the 3rd to last fight of the tournament and all we got is this trash.
>>288473521>magic wandBooooooooooo
>>288473504Terashi go brrrr.
>>288473530I didn't know they had a CLAMP collab.
writing-wise this fight is in the gutter too. This entire "you're not a REAL martial artist you AMATEUR" speak is annoying.
So why doesn't hanafusa use his magic on Koga or Kazzy's hypothalamus to give them the giga fist eye?They can already turn it off so get him to overclock it until they can see every frame of reality.
>>288473543but for what purpose
>>288473543>Sees target>"He's hot"Alright.
>>288473286But wouldn't the rest of his body vibrating violently enough to damage his opponent also shake his head fast enough to give him some brain damage?
>>288473438>Terashi sees Rolon move>Neuron activation
>>288473360Longhanafusa is long
>>288473473Hey man, Daro paid 100 yen for that brush pack and he's gonna get his money's worth.
>>288473578Open to interpretation.
>>288473567>>288473577My dude, that briefcase full of french cash surely wasn't that much now.
>>288473344Ew this fag again
>>288473600Holy shit he's long
>>288473582His head is stabilized like a chicken. It's the third superpower he gained by having a crayon stuck in his hypothalamus.
he lost so much aura once he took off the mask, I still want to see him win though
>>288473606Good question, for another time.
>>288473404Try punching a massage chair if you are so tough then, lost a friend to one of those myself...
>>288473188You got the "timing" wrong.
>>288473625weird page
>>288473516GO OKUBO GO
>>288473625What the FUCK is that bottom right panel
>>288473625lel what's with the text on the last panel, is this really an official release
>>288473600He liked Terashi's freaky proportions so much he decided to give himself something similar
>>288473489Bad translations are a possible explanation, he couldn't see the jabs because of vis mask. Now that it broke he has better vision.Still stupid nonsense.
>martial arts!>amateur!>making fun of martial arts huh?>isn't he an amateur??shut the fuck up sandro oh my god. no wonder he switches to AI
>>288473489I mean they atleast acknowledge it in >>288473459
>>288473286He can vibrate his torso while keeping his head normal.Is he like a chicken that can keep her head stable while moving around?Ah fuck, I should know better than try to make sense of this
>>288473551Yeah so I'll just get brain surgery and permanently alter my sight so I'm fucked in every day life just to kill this one guy.
>>288473658Get in the fucking robot Terashi!
>>288473646>he managed to shift the damage at the laszzzzzzzzzzzźzzz
>all the talk of how Terashi has a lot of innate talent and potential for martial arts he could make use of on top of his magic surgeries>Okubo offers to train with him>nothing ever comes of it
>>288473543Wait wait wait, couldn't he just have attended as a spectator observing Nicolas's fights then finished him off when he lost? The crowd in the arena is huge for him to blend in and Nicolas's record sucks of course he was gonna lose against a strong org like Kengan.
>>288473625what the fuck happened to the art?>how it feels to chew 5 gum
>>288473311Hey, doesn't it count like head protection gear?Can purgatory fighters just equip whatever
>>288473725>Ah yes, the weakness I forgot to mention until it matteredVery cool!
>>288473578Probably the french gov wanting to clean house no? Although they would've used a pic of the real one so idk
>>288473725uuh wasnt this dude supposed to be skinny
>>288473714He saw through rhzg gapss hahahahaha fuck you sandroooio this is like anothee chaprer 50 all over gain wtfffuck
>>288473725Video games!
>>288473305amateur jobs.
DONEThis is fucking retarded.
>>288473567Carlosbros... Liubros...
>>288473743This whole "amateur" thing doesn't fucking work since it did seem like he respected his other teammates enough to look like a child in front of them. He even knew he had to spend money to even stand a chance against Bishamon shitters.
>>288473725This still makes no fucking sense. Was he just leaving it on during the down count? You can see the vibration effect here too >>288473670Why the fuck didn't he start cooling down earlier? If he had utilized nine free seconds of cooldown, he probably would have recovered in time.It's amazing how even the weakest guy on the Purgatory bench had to have a lobotomy involved in his loss.
>>288473344is there anything that hanafusa CAN'T do?
>>288473176>>288473760OH NO NO NO NO WE'RE ABOUT TO START "THAT FIGHT" TOMORROW.Another mindbreak incoming
>>288473687Okubo is quick to sense incoming jobber attacks due to his experience at using them
>>288473766Also julius is still here and getting wanked, and Muteba SOMEHOW could no-sell almost everything thrown at him and discover techniques like boxing and grappling on the spot.
>>288473760Someone post the all you had to do pic
>>288473801Bring back Waka's ankle
>>288473801Fix Waka's ankle
Man i hate Lolong already cant this fucking fag shut the fuck up for a second?
I actually kind of liked the start of the fight when it looked like it's just going to be a silly gimmick bout with goofy choreography, but after the mask dropped it just felt like chewing on rubber.
>>288473257PEAK
>>288473819
>>288473760Thanks OP
>>288473737Rule of the cool!
>>288473457It's funny how the explanation for why he wears a mask is completely meaningless after this tournament since it turned out that he can just wear sunglasses to prevent the strain on his eyes. The only reason he wore a mask was so that readers could speculate as to his identity and add to discussion metrics online. Sandro is such an opportunistic cunt who doesn't care about storytelling. Numbers, numbers, numbers is everything to him. He's the quintessential modern social media generation writer.
>>288473257wobbly fist? So he's a high school teacher?
>>288473848It's clear that there was no plan for Terashi and it's just fucking whatever.>He's an assassin!>He's gonna kill Nicolas!>But he has to make it look like an accident so...>He joins a promotion that got absorbed and now he's in a tournament he has no credentials to be on and he's definitely not fighting Nicolas there>Also none of his kit counters NicolasJust fucking poison his food bro.
>>288473280>mock fa jinOh, this is the magic version of fa jin.
>>288473869This brand of storytelling was made fun of years before Kengan Ashura started.
>>288473386The worst kind of plot device too. Because he has no clear rules on what he can or cannot do, and because Sandro refuses to elaborate on these rules for obvious reasons, he can literally do whatever the plot/Sandro wants him to do, and it will never appear contradictory since rules on his abilities are never established.
>>288473326Okubo > RLhito confirmed
>>288473670You can tell just by the expression on this page that Fei feels like a moron for hypebeasting this guy.
>>288473682>atleast acknowledge it inIt's just the usual lampshading/damage control Sandro does every single time.
>>288473869Mystery boxes, plot twists, pointless hype, callbacks and even tracing Ashura, cgdct, yurishit... At some point you kind of respect the grind. Dude wants money no matter what he has to write as long as it sells.
>>288473286>then his mask...>That's right, I can't vibrate my headSee, this is all supposed to make it sound like he has some greater secret behind the mask, but wouldn't it be funny if he just keeled over from one blow to the head?
>>288473801Fix a monkey face
>>288473905Really, as long as a character isn't actively said to have that, he can fix them. But even then he cheats at that so lmao
>tomorrow is THAT fight I cant wait.
>>288473843This except Ohma
>>288473344I love Hanafusa!
>>288473752What is going through Lolong's mind right now?
>>288473760>But how can I put this... you were a real monster! I'm lucky I could defeat such an unfathomable opponent. You're almost Fang level!
>>288473905And the unfunny quirkchungus humour only makes this poofter even mlre insufferable.
>>288473334>that giga forehead in the bottom panel visible even through the bangsLook at fucking Megamind over here
>>288473334>"that doctor"sigh
>>288473760That was the worst fight of the tournament, right?
>>288473286>can't shake his brainGet this ignorant pleb out of my sight.
>>288473984>why was Terashi allowed to wear protective gear into the ring
>>288473702>nothing ever comes of itA story as old as time in Kengan Omega
>>288474003If by worse you mean funniest than yes.
>>288473530Chapter 119 extra
>>288473760Thanks OP, here's the poll for the rating Okubo vs Terashihttps://docs.google.com/forms/d/1GzoZYEErYhSSDy4wgbF81Ib3DBrGymi58TTOVlXcqQU/
>>288473383Was the power to shiver really hard the best you could do, really?Install a fucking bone-marrow cock blade or something at least.
>>288474012Don't you remember THE Mark Myers? Under Purgatory rules cool masks are allowed
>>288474024And here is the ratings of Nitoku vs Liu. This was the fight with the most votes, surpassing Misasa vs Yumigahama. The ranking now is:1. Nitoku vs Liu2. Goah vs Naidan3. Akoya vs Nicolas4. Lihito vs Falcon5. Masaki vs Arashiyama6. Julius vs Toa7. Carlos vs Gaolang8. Raian vs Alan9. Agito vs Lu Tian10. Misasa vs Yumigahama
>>288473714that's a thing now?
Terashi character profile, split because it would be posted real late to the "party" otherwise.
>>288473801Fix Sandro's writing
>>288473372>Doktor, turn off my vibration limiters
This fight just irritates me. Might be the worst KvP fight.
>>288474003As a standalone yeah, completely pointless, vapid and doesn't move anything forward meaningfully. Hanafusa being able to just do that and it not being referenced ever again by anyone seeking to become stronger is also stupid.
>>288473815Muteba is a big mercenary used to mass murdering people with his bare hands and Julius can send race cars flying, it's a little different from Terashi who is just tall and vibrates but has basically 0 hand-to-hand combat experience
>>288473801Hanafusa can in fact bring Ed's mom back to life.
>>288474020Ok so THAT is why he was hired. Now it all makes sense
>>288474055>two fights with the most votes are at the opposite endsKino...
>>288474055Akoya vs Nicholas really shouldn't be that high, it was just his backstory and then blueballs.
>>288474058>Who'd be happy to see a middle aged manAnd so he ruined him. Cool.
>>288474077Dont worry tomorrow will be exponentially worse
>>28847344760 minutes is more than enough though.Also>The Fist Eye is an activatable powerFuck off.
>>288473738Utterly infuriating and insulting.
>>288474055>Goah
>>288474105Murata made the mysterious character a middle aged man, did you rike it
>>288473311How did Terashi get to wear a mask but Hayami wasn't even allowed to use earbuds?
I had to do some real deep "research" for this edit...
>>288474003No, second worst. At least this had a proper ending. The worst is the Alan fight. Or, rather, the Alan "fight". Beyond how much of a joke this "fight" was, it also was the setup that eventually led to "the tragedy".
>>288474136The ear buds could be used for cheating since someone could feed him moves (Sandros actual explanation btw)
>>288474119this is like the third time I post the ranking with that mistake kek
>>288474163I mean, that worked for Akoya at some point so I'll take it
>>288473760And to think, there are those out there who still insist that Koga would have been a wasted slot. No matter how poorly he would have undoubtedly performed, it would still have served as a useful showcase of character growth. It would have been a good way to set up Koga being someone who has earned the attention of fighters at both KA and Purgatory. Meanwhile, what has Terashi's fight accomplished for the narrative?
>>288474160This is why he lost btw
>>288474083They're still amateurs with no martial arts training, you get my point. So okubo's screenching reads as hypocritical.
Terashi actually seems like an actual assassin unlike what Kengan assumes an assassin is.
>>288474110I know what's coming tomorrow. The kinoest fight of all time!But on a more serious note, this is the first fight on this re-read that has given me the feeling that current omega gives me. From the lazy, thoughtless fight choreography and techniques, to the wonky art that only gets worse. Its just annoying to read. I'll probably drop this story time after the next fight, and I'm only sticking around for the meme posting.
>>288473344Hands down Kengan best character.
>>288474077Yumi vs Misasa is still the worst for me.Terashi was just a mystery box sandro dangled in front of the readers but Yumi had build up and was supposed to be a big deal only for him to be systematically ruined with every new appearance.
>>288474197An assassin isn't going to do all that backflips just so he can get close to his target.
>>288473657It's there to give you a shared feeling of brain/nerve damage.
>>288473658Wait, are we sure that middle panel isn't AI?
>>288474256No, I don't think there's anything there that'd make it AI. Keep in mind this would've been released on like 2021, AI wasn't that good. Best you could do was moving faces as if they were singing.
>>288474256Unlikely. Though it kind of looks like it could be a trace over a reference photo or a 3d asset
>>288474233He would with enough pay. And it's the client who wanted it done that way rather than becoming someone in the support staff.
>>288473286Fei...
>I FINALLY GOT THE STRONGEST TEAM IMAGINABLE>"Shitshitshit, I just got here because I wanted to kill that faggot. Why am I being selected? I won't even get to fight Nicolas here. Kengan too? Aren't those made up of sociopath killers? If I back out now, Toyoda might kick me out. FUCK."I wonder what he was thinking then.
>>288474110 So many things about this fight are hilarious in retrospect especially the Shen clone foreshadowing
>>288474336>"Hmmm, I wonder what Lolong is going to say"
>>288473353Missed a good schizo>>288473360Does he really "see" or just placating a mentally ill moneybag>>288474163this sounds like a joke. No, it definitely is
>>288474058So who would he have been originally? His masked design should still be close to that at least.Also that quote sounds familiar.
>>288474256It isn't.
>>288474385Literally Kuroki. That's my bet.>Someone we would've known>Middle aged man>God
>>288474160you ruined it with the feet
>>288474055>Captura de telaAre you a Brasilbro too?
>>288474058>(maybe?)FUCK OFF, WHAT'S THE POINT OF BEING VAGUE ON HIS ORIGINS? JUST SAY A COUNTRY AND BE DONE WITH IT. WHY ARE YOU SO IN LOVE WITH AMBIGUITY?
What was his plan if he had to fight an A lister before he got a chance at Nicolas?Every one of them would have fucked him up at the very least, crippled him at worst.
>>288474282It can't have been 5 years, this chapter surely came out maybe 2 years ago.Also thought we'd get the early obvious AI stuff soon.I guess we're just at the "Daro has given up" phase instead, you can see a lot of those signs pop up now.
>>288474410>Someone we would've known>Middle aged man>God>could be connected to legendary Chinese super assassin from ages agoThat sounds like he could've been Shen
>>288473760Even Koga would beat Terashi.
>>288474465It came out in 2021...
>>288474438nta, but you'd be amazed to know there are many Brasilbros in kengan threads, just like "me"
>>288473869>>288473933>sandro is a fraud who doesn't care about anything but selling, and will debase himself and his older creations if it means getting the upper handWas Mukaku his real self insert?
>>288473268So he gives him the shake and bake and somehow this is good enough to actually warrant his inclusion in Purgatory's all star roster? What a fucking clown.
>>288474492>another "me" in these threadsOh no no no
>>288474007Deido is unfathomable.
>>288474529>What a fucking clown.Oh no, it was another mirror match all along
>>288474491It's 2023 right now, yeah?
>>288474578Why is the monkey holding a Russian chocolate bar
>>288473438Wonder what other wacky eye powers we'll get by the end that are just the same shit with different names.
>>288474535of course, we're all "me" afterall
>>288474590Close enough. No need to worry, kitten
>>288474077It's the least memorable one if nothing else. Okubo just sort of smacks this doofus around until he finally puts him out of his misery. It's jarring to look back on fan reaction for this tournament when people were actually excited about this team.
>>288474007Hmmm
>>288473257>>288473268The slayer of women.
>>288474578Fuck
>>288473760>wins against a total amateur who got life changing surgery for some shitty gimmicksA slanderer couldn't come up with a pity win this terrible.
>>288474492Favorite character?
I like Terashi
Hey...uhhh...so it's been 4 full fights since Raian ran at full speed to catch up to Edward....who was slow walking...uhhh....yeah....
>>288473438But how does it affect his "gaps"?
>>288474475Who?
>>288474750just give him some more time
>>288473489He can see betterer without the mask.
>>288474750The hallway has GER turned on
>>288474385
>>288473625
>>288474750Dont worry that is leading twords the best fight in the series, the wait will be worth it.
>got bodied by Agito at his most fucking around>unimpressively defeats a non-martial artist with one of the stupidest fighting abilities introduced so far>Is only on record as stronger than Lihito, THE EMPEROR, and Kaneda, all R1 or sub-R1 jobbersGive me 1(one)[uno] reason as to why Okubo isn't a Sekibayashi victim.
>>288473176For all the new readers, nothing I mean nothing will prepare you guys for what's about to happen, tomorrow's fight is insane.
>>288474657Lolong perished?!
>>288474732unironically, Okubo, but i've grown to really like Joji after he turns into Shen's drinking buddy
>>288474849It cant be worse than Misawa fight
>>288474849Dubs and both lose.
>>288474750edward is using "that"
>>288474845he's fun
>>288474438>>288474492>>288474535>>288474732There are potentially, 5 of "us" here. At least. ...There could be more?
>>288474849i think we need a few days for THAT
>>288474863You better hold that thought>>288474865Heh>>288474890The Waka fight is the first impact, the second impact is everything about Eddie
I really wish Terashi was good. We got a lot of good memes out of him and I'm a sucker for masked characters. Sandro picked what might have been the dumbest gimmick possible for him. Makes Idemetsu look like a retard too.
>>288474865>65
>>288474845He can pee really far.
>>288474916This injury may be the worst one for me in Kengan. I hate seeing it.
>>288473760What a dumb fight. Stupid abilities, stupid person.
>>288474950Be kind, Okubo tried his best
>>288474886hey "you" don't need to quote "me", "we" already "talked" about it
Well that was terrible, at least these next two fights have to be good, right?
>>288474935At least Agito had the decency to dislocate it at the joint. Ligament is donezo but the bone is fine at least.FUCK THE NIKO STYLE
>>288474972the next THREE fights were awesome haha
>El Dorado>The Imperial EyeHnG HATES the word Emperor
>>288474972
>>288474985What about "The Icy Emperor" Himuro Ryo and "The Emperor" Adam Dudley
>>288474908Maybe he wanted Nicolas dead too all along
>>288474972The next fight is really good anon, you better not miss it
>>288473447Isn't the fist eye just decent sight itself though? It's not a legitimate superpower.
>>288474972Is that your expectation? *lol*
Is tai-chi the strongest martial art?
>>288475083>decent sightSuperb sight
>>288474972The next one will be peak.At least in some ways.
>>288474160you got the "timing" right with the feet
>>288475104I started doing tai-chi after I downloaded the app from Google. It's relaxing at least.
>>288474783KEK
>>288474972I'll say this- the next fight was peak Omega discussion. We were burning through threads every day. Highest engagement Kengan has seen.
>>288475126Carlos...
>>288474438yes>>288474492>>288474535>>288474732I wonder what attracted "us" to Kengan since it has no community or relevance in BR besides OHMA TOKITA CABEÇA DE PIKA
Try to keep it in your pants, don't prehype stuff, the experience should be as unblemished as possible since once were done with the tournament there really isn't much to look forward for. The rapid fire of dogshit sandro is about to subject the newbies to will be much more impactful if they don't get to prepare themselves for it.
Hassad soon.
>>288475126Muy bien.
>>288475165"me"? watched the anime when it released, couldnt wait for the next batch of episodes to release and decided to read the manga. 7 years later, here "i" amthat quote took me of guard when i first heard it kek
>>288475165For me, I've stumbled upon it on /a/ during the first rounds of the KAT, I think we had it up to Gaolang vs Agito translated at the time and the rest of the raws were up on a fucking vietnamese website. >spoilerFucking kek, even some normalfag friends of mine have quoted that, such a good localization.
>>288475165Netflix + 4chanAlso, this pic... I see.
>>288473760Unironically the worst fight so far
>>288475501was it truly a "fight" if Sandro told us he was an amateur who didn't respect martial arts every 2 pages? It was an... "exhibition..."
>>288473257The best technique
>>288473268Would have been better if Terashi's slapping and hand shtick was just him fucking around with Okubo
Why are the KA and Purgatory beefing with each other again?
>>288473193Is this guy's gimmick vibration?
>>288475619Toyoda is just fucking around to pass the time until his space program finalizes. So he started a fight with Kengan.
>>288475633We don't know
>>288475619Purgatory is growing increasingly large and powerful as the premier underground fight circuit. The tournament is a contest of who gets to absorb who.
>>288474786Kek
>>288473268Sure.
>>288474007his is superior after all
>>288475647Oh shut it.
>>288473893But Fa Jin is magic?
>>288474193Well uh it continues Nicholas's subplot which might leads to something worm-related as Naidan foreshadowed lmao
>>288473447> Terashi's ability can permanently fuck up his brainPretty standard for a Purgatory fighter I guess
>>288475633he has magnets in his body, his punches can attract and repel the iron in his oponents blood
>>288473530>>288473543>>288473551Sorry, am I misunderstanding or did the client (probably the French government) hire a weapons specialist assassin to kill his target barehanded in a public environment where weapons were explicitly banned from being used, while also explicitly refusing to hire an assassin who is actually capable of performing weaponless hand to hand assassinations that thee weapon specialist recommended.At the same time, the client who is apparently offering enough money for the weapons expert assassin to accept this retarded contract, could not even procure a picture of the actual target but instead got a picture of his friend who is currently pretending to be him after undergoing a mental breakdown after killing the original target.Is that about right?
>>288473447why doesnt he learn how to go limp in his brain so there are no drawbacks in his technique?
>>288473447>you need to activate Ken GanFUCK OFF SANDRO!
>>288473543>is a hired killer>comments on how the job he's going to take is a pretty shady job
>>288475842What's the problem? It makes sense, you are just taking it out of context
>>288475765There is one thing you got wrong.You see, it has been several chapters since Nicolas had his backstory.Anything beyond 5 chapters should be considered soft canon.That is to say, he was the real Nicolas all along.(But yes, they wanted him to kill Nicolas, I guess. But Sandro didn't stop to think about how no one seems to have known Nic was replaced by Jean Luc, so it doesn't make sense that they'd have the picture of Jean Luc to give him)
>>288473760You guys reckon Koga can take Terashi on?
>>288475929Six more months
>>288473305>>288473286There you guys go againyap, yap, yap, yapIs this what they call hexing?
>>288474845>Give me 1(one)[uno] reason as to why Okubo isn't a Sekibayashi victim.he is
>>288475765Don't think about it
>>288473521Come on now, just push him out, it can't be violating the rule again
>>288475820I would have preferred it with Hostess™ Fruit Pies.
Happy pride month, keng/a/nbros
>>288475916I can almost almost overlook the giant blunder that is the contract target, but the decision to hire a weapons specialist assassin that apparently has zero martial arts training or any type of close combat ability and then requiring him to assassinate the target with his bare hands in an environment that forbids it is actually just far too baffling.It's like hiring Kuroki to assassinate someone, but he can't use karate but he absolutely has to use a gun instead.Or hiring Seki as a fighter but forbidding him from using pro wrestling.It's just such an awful mismatch.>>288476039Probably for the best.
>>288473301>this late into the arc Sandro pulls the "dont underestimate martial arts!!!" fightThis shit isnt even a R1 fight its a boat one
>>288476116It's like hiring Kuroki but he has to wear a formal attire
>>288473760Complete gibberish. I don't think I could have written something more nonsensical under the influence of cocaine.
>>288473426Okubo is pathetic having trouble with this clown. I guess the mirror match is both fighters are retarded
>>288476189Stephen King himself is visiting these sacred halls?
>>288473438Huh, I remember it being "emperor's eye" before
>>288476113Pride month happens every month or something? WTF?!
>>288476218Emperor Eye was the more literal TL, remember the original scans for this fight weren't done by HnG / Comikey.
>>288474007Deido was such a fucking wicked antagonist. He had more charisma in his pinky than a thousand Sandro villains did.
>>288473670Lolong you told Yumi to hang himself because he used martial arts the wrong way but youre respecting Terashi even when the dude can barely throw a punch. I've starting to suspect you just like him because he was glazing your ass everytime you blinked.
>>288473921Fei is a moron so thats in character
Why does Terashi's build seem to be shifting drastically every time?
>>288473734This would have fit better in Asura. In Omega it’s like yeah no shit martial artists are strong
>>288476360Daro was just starting to learn the basics of ai
>>288476297sandro is like an ant compared to Fujita
>>288473725Amazing how Daro can't decide if Terashi's supposed to be buffed or lanky. Even his mask seemed to change the way its strapped to his head every so often.
>>288476309Lolong blinked!?
>>288474828Thank you, assistant-kun.
>>288473334>loses mask>loses absolutely everything interesting about him because Sandro was writing this character by the seat of his pants and it showsTerashi never should've lost the mask.
>>288475126Ninyo…
>>288476388Stop spouting that bullshit, there is no AI involved at this point.
omega anime when
"Soon"
>>288473438>>288474160My brain when playing Bioshock Infinite
>>288476447
>>288473801Die
>>288473801Kill Bando
>>288476545Never I assume. They even cut out the "evil is on the move" bit in the ashura anime cause they knew there would be no hope for a sequel
>>288476628that's an old one lmao
>>288473467He's used to being a clown.
>>288476743Bioshock Infinite isn't old. I still remember playing Bioshock 1 when it first came out.
>>288476116>Hitman escalation mode
>>288477146>Bioshock Infinite isn't old>it came out 13 years ago
>>288477146Oh anon, Bioshock 1 is going to be twenty years old next year.
>>288473734It's weird to say Terashi underestimated Martial Arts when he already knew he wasn't the man for the job, which is why he suggested the Kure and Wu instead.
>>288477158>>288477165This can't be....I was just a wee lad not that long ago. At least Linking Park still popular right?
>Bonjour, Monsieur Terashi.>Proceed to the next phase.
>>288474164>that picit's funny to think how much better this manga would have been if this were the outcome instead
>>288474007
>>288473543So Akoya almost saved his career.Also it's so obvious that at the end of this long beats Terashi up or (even worse) toyoda, lolong or some HACK character "already knew".
>>288473543Can Terashi even beat Nicolas in a 1v1?
>>288473625>>288473596Predictable writing, predictable dialogue. I would've preferred if Terashi didn't reveal his motives until he is laying in his own hospital bed right next to Nicolas.
>>288476506its not the "literal" ai, rather daro was beginning to absorb the "principles" of slop, which, once mastered, allows one to effortlessly produce the dogshit that stable diffusion, nanobanana, grok and indian guys on fiverr who make youtube thumbnails spend years practicing
>>288474465You mouth breather can't tell the difference between computer generated images and a lazy artist.
>>288473577So why did Terashi have to join Purgatory if he wasn't going to fight Nicholas and was going to assassinate him?Couldn't he have snuck into the tournament or post-match room and killed him there with weapons? Setsuna is just running around there by by himself just fine, so are Edward and Xia
What happened here?
>>288473438If you look closely there's a skeleton inside terashi!!!!
>>288473543Pretty unlucky he got stuck in KvP then
>>288477552>Delicious Water chapter>Yujiro bone smashing chapter > GODlius crushes the edd boy Truly still a good time to be alive
>>288473551>want to make it look like an accidental deathJust fucking run over him with a car then use the money to change your face
>>288477552gay rape implies straight rape is a thing
Yeah guys like Okubo, Julius or Waka are cool. But what if they were green?
>>288476701Omega can continue without evil is on the move the same way THAT BASTARD can continue to receive his beatings without context
>>288473893
>>288477552Don't believe that anon's words, the rape was completely heterosexualJust check the difference between their testosterone levels
>>288475820Lu Tian did nothing wrong
>>288475619Because Omega Nogi is a retard
>>288478283Is there an Omega character that can't be called somewhat retarded at this point?
>>288478330The characters who disappeared from the plot entirely, like Hassad
>>288473257This is what I get for liking Okubo
>>288473577Why is he on a coma, he was fine on the ring.
>>288473760This is the second worst fight of the tournament btw
>>288473760So what did Okubo did this 3 years to beat Fang. He just beat a lanky kid that didn't know how to throw a punch
>>288478442Rolon fucked him up apparently
>>288474055Misasa vs monkey wasn't bad, the movement and choreography were good and so was ring shrinking, its just that the backstory and characters sour everything.
>>288473344I was thinking about it earlier, and shouldn't Lu Tian have been in the infirmary at some point? Shouldn't the other Purgatory gladiators there have had the chance to ask him what the fuck he was doing?
>>288476360Because Sandro had no idea what he wanted Terashi to be, he was basically throwing out a billion different concepts and seeing which ones the audience liked.So one such concept was making him creepy and thin like some horror monster. That's what his entrance looked like, even though prior to that there was zero indication of him having that kind of a horror feel about him. But Sandro wanted to throw that out anyway to see how the readers would react.
>>288478600>I was thinking about it earlier, and shouldn't Lu Tian have been in the infirmary at some point?Are you "green"? Your answer will determine how I respond to your question.
>>288474578I know there was an edit of terashi with this, hopefully it was already posted
>>288478618I'm more of a "lime green" if you catch my drift
>>288477690It is the most common type of rape, yes.
>>288474055Will you be including Edward vs Raian with the proper KvP fights?
>>288473334i can't belive it, so the real identiy of Terashi all along was some random guy, what a great payoff for all the mystery surrounding his character.
>>288474055With the exception of Akoya vs Nicolas ranking above Rihito vs Falcon, this aligns nicely with my feelings on each fight.
There are martial arts that incorporate weapons. Terashi could have been a master of some of those or something like that, since he uses weapons... I mean, the gimmicks don't make up for the fact that he doesn't know how to fight. Crazy to think that this shit is still better than Yumi and Alan's fights
>>288474055Only the top 4 I would consider acceptable. Numbers 5 and 6 are mediocre.Everything else (including Okubo vs Terashi and the three fights coming after it) can be pissed away and we'd lose nothing.
>>288478870when you are an assassin you don't need to learn how to fight properly, you are used to find your target and stab them in the back a 1v1 fair fight is a natural disadvantage
>>288473360>correct computer posture
>>288473257>those proportions>those hands>vibratesThe greatest pussy slayer on earth
>>288473623Unfathomable...
>>288477342>Alan (loser) returns to Purgatory side alive and well>gets killed by Lolong for causing a loss while he goes out for a bathroom break
>>288475842There is government sanctioned work, "work that has nothing do with any member of government, organisation or invidual of a particular nation" and then there is "trust me bro" tier work.Like the recent thing in France where "actors close to Iran" tried to hire domestic islamists to eliminate suspected Mossad agents. Except the "actors close to Iran" turned out to be Mossad agents and the claimed mossad agents...... who knows, wouldn't go digging about it openly.But the bottom line is contract killing has plenty of shade into it.
>>288473257>>288473334I don't like how the ponytail hairtie also comes undone and he looks like a completely different character.
>>288473944He can, but he would never help such a despicable monster
>>288473344He looks so weird in the first panel
>>288473472It's pretty normal
>>288473372>I can't rely on weapons, I need a new power>>288473383>I didn't think he'd use vibrations offensively
>>288473447Don't worry about brain damage, you can just get a heart transplant to fix it.Also stop eyeing Okubo's ass like that
>>288473504Jazz hands
>>288474055Nice. For the record, I voted "very good", but that was by omega standards, by ashura standards I'd just rate it good. Still, easily the best fight so far.>>288474100They were also willing to brutalize each other a lot more, and while Akoya has been somewhat flanderized at least he's not a personality vacuum like a lot of the kengan side has become
>>288473383>the infirmary>AKA: purgatory dugout 2
>>288473268my power is... 50Hz
God damn this fight is so bad.Seriously how is he able to write such a atrocious fight?This is even worse than something a beginner would write…Please tell me the next 100+ chapters will be better
>>288479336Haha...
>>288479336oh anon... thread can't even come to a conclusion on if it's the worst thing so far...
>>288475842If the Government wanted you to kill a guy in a way that specifically didn't include your usual methods you'd think something was up He's a freelancer with no family legacy or backing like the Kure nor does Terashi seem like a Mega Murderer like Muteba, he's likely completely fucked if the Government decided to screw him over after this, likely why he tried passing the job off to the Kure and Wu
>>288479336Anon, this party's only just getting started.
>>288474160muh boyloser plapperinos... bravo sandro...

>>288479466>>288479516Just report and ignore
>>288479451Anon no! Think of the nu-kengies!
>>288479336It gets worse than bad, it gets boring.
I see we have "arrived" at "that" point of the daily
>Thread is close to bump limit>Most of the readers are probably asleep and aren't going to bother with Kengan until the next thread>start spoiling anywayunfathomable
>>288479789Resident schizo's gonna resident schizo
>>288473577I don't know how much they paid him, but there's no way it was enough money to justify ruining his life by fucking with his brain.
>>288479604Unfortunately, someone midly criticized Baki three days ago so we're going to deal with the fallout for the next two weeks.
>>288473658>throwing in the towel will make things messy laterThis feels like AI dialogue. His only mission is assassinating Nicolas then get the fuck out of Purg. Losing literally doesn't matter. And his lost really didn't affect anything
>>288473530My problem is:I understand he's a weapons specialist, and it has to be ranged weapons since he's unable to dodge or react to blows without his superpowers, which are a recent thing, but in a world where the top tier assassins are well beyond human in terms of physical ability it really doesn't make sense that he's so weak that he'd lose to a boat jobber without cheating.
>>288478753i have no ideadoes it happen before or after the final fight? I dont remember
>>288480501Right after Ohma vs Lolong
>>288480586ehh probably not then idk
>>288473257THE WOBBLIEST OF PUNCHES
>>288473447Just close your eyes? Or squint? How is this a problem?
>>288473447Couldn't Terashi have just asked Hanafusa to do his job again, but properly this time?
>>288473760Finally alisa gets some respect
>>288475158I remember that there was a Kengan Asura storytime ongoing at that time, and discussion over omega bled into it a lot.
>>288473760This is arguably WORSE than his KAT showing. While it was the second most humiliating defeat at least when he jobbed he jobbed out to the strongest dude at the time, here he just fodderized the weakest dude. Shit like this is why I call Okubo fraudulent
>>288481060He can see for fucking miles... fucking. miles.
>>288473291>>288473301>I AM A GENIUS>OH NO
>>288473577Wait then why does he have to win his fight?Get a pummeling, maybe a little roughed up and then move onto the target!
>>288481374Giving up could make Toyoda suspicious of him since he isn't an old timer in Purgatory and things have already happened before his fight
>>288473714dare I say he got the timing right?
>>288475158Wasnt the thread for the ending of the next fight the one with the most replies in Kengan history? Im pretty sure there was one that hit 1k bumps
>>288473714The face of a man about to test if his butthole also vibrates

Man this shit is sad
>peak of KvP tonight>purg vs purg fight tomorrowit’s purg hours baby
why is having full face protector ok but an earbud is a no-no
>>288483531They have to allow masks because of the luchas
>>288482715This was top kekkles. I’m honored to read this in real time. I was so disappointed that all the Chinese fighters were meme fighters besides Liu
>>288481091what's that?You want MORE upgrade?
I'm starting to suspect Tiger Niko's teaching techniques are not very effective
>>288484362dont worry next chapter you will see PEAK niko style
>>288484362It's because he didn't have all the data he needed
>>288479336I can't imagine how anyone could feel proud of having written something this dogshit. I wonder how Sandro would respond if someone were to ask him if he was happy with how he wrote this fight. He'd probably come up with some bullshit answer to save face.
>>288484574I doubt he gives a shit>Sando-sama, can you tell us what was your train of thought with writing that Terashi fight?>Who? Oh him! Well I didn't think too much about it. *raughs*
>>288484511>i have all the data i need>actually needs even more data 1000 chapters later when he goes to connector data center>devolves instead of evolving even furtherwhat a liar
>>288474055Agito vs Lu Tian genuinely felt more intellectually offensive to me than the Yumi fight. Only positive it has over that fight is that the outcome doesn't feel as immediately predetermined as that one and that's honestly it.
>>288483106Of all the theories of Terashi being an Agito clone or a disguised bando, no one predicted he would just be a filler fighter who cant EVEN throw a punch
>>288485878>can't EVEN throw a punchOf course not, he's a pretty ODD fellow.
New anon here who started with the storytimes.I think im gonna drop out here.I can see now why everyone said it drops in quality after chapter 50.Seriously did koga even have anything important to say/do in this whole arc expect doing :O faces?He was the main character for fucks sake and he got turned into a reaction face.And damn did the fights lose quality.In Ashura the fights had structure and clear lines. You could see where sandro wanted to go with each fight and the moves showed it.Here it‘s just.Punch-> dodge-> grappling move -> punch etc.Yeah there were some ok fights but compared to ashura they were no were near the tournament fights (maybe R1 Waka and R1 sasuke were worse) but damn the Seki vs Koizan fight was better then any purgatory fight. The only reason i kinda liked Liu and Naidan was because if the relationship between those two but even those two fights were nowhere near round 1 kat. Maybe Liu vs Toku could be a round 2 one.And this fight was pure garbage. My dog was once in a „fight“ with a other dog and he had to shit suddenly. The fight only stopped because the other dog sniffed the shit from my dog and my dog started sniffing that dogs ass and ngl that was more entertaining than this fight.I still dont get the „us“ and „you are me“ meme but im gonna be serious it’s not worth it going through this abhorrent choreography and repugnant storytelling to get there.I will stay „green“ and not „climb“ the mountain with „you“ or „us.Goodbye Keng/a/n
