We've arrived
>>288531600RPG Hex???
>>288531543I BELIEVE IN WAKATSUKI TAKESHI.
>>288531606Oh wow, that's so smart of him. I hope he takes it slower and don't overclock himself to death!
>>288531614>>288531621How can they just keep killing so many martial arts prodigies?
>>288531559Wait, since fucking when Nezu is there
>>288531552I HATE THE NIKO STYLE
>>288531630Lu Tian isn't even on the team.
>>288531630Going through 4000 dudes just for a dude who couldn't beat injured KAT Cosmo and lost to fresh out of a coma Ohma feels like a really bad trade.
>>288531588Notice how Ryuki is totally missing from that shot?
I BELIEVE in WAKU WAKU man
>>288531614it will never stop being funny that all this sacrifice happened so tiger niko could learn how to add indian burns to niko style
>>288531630Ranjo was so pathetic that if he actually showed up for more than 5 panels and didnt die offscreen he would the biggest lolcow
OP overclocked his PC...
>>288531657dont worry he also used all there deaths to improve his niko style and learn a super powerful new move.
Aw fuck the worm caught the dump anon
>>288531600Just dodge roll bro
>>288531682You don't mean... Niko Style: Pinch
You were awesome, OP...
>>288531614At some point China has to undergo some sort of martial art prodigy demographic collapse with how many are being ground up by the worm for some vague goal
>OP overclocked himself and diedK-kino...
>>288531543Dumpanon has been replaced by a worm imposter
OP got the timing wrong...
>>288531726>worm OP killed himselfSounds par the course
>>288531600Wakaculo
>>288531630Uh, wait a sec. Need my pass to reset.
>>288531614>>288531621So there's one survivor out of every Gu ritual. So there was 50 Gu rituals, meaning that Tiger Niko trained 50 groups of about 80 people on average.Honestly, pretty impressive. Say what you will, but Tiger Niko must have been a pretty good teacher to teach so many people martial arts in such a limited time frame, on top of apparently experimenting with different styles going by Lu Tian.Of course, he proceeds to throw pretty much all of that away with the Gu rituals but that shouldn't take away from his accomplishment.Maybe instead of working for the Worm, he should open up a martial arts studio or something instead.
>>288531751You overestimate him, those 50 likely didn't get the same kind of training and most probably already died not halfway in. It really was just a weird attempt to kill a lot of Chinese people.
I got worms in my pants
>>288531751That's not quite right, I don't think.He found fitting sacrifices, threw 4000 of them into Gu rituals and only trained the survivors, which while maybe impressive, is also a waste of talent in general.
>>288531767Myabe Tiger niko just hates chinks and he's using the Gu Ritual to curb any racist accusations.
>>288531751No he only trained them after they survived the Gu Ritual.
Sorry about that. I trusted my pc to keep going while I walked my dog, and it seems it didn't.I'll phonepost the rest.
>>288531750Take your time, OP
>>288531750Take your time its fine
>>288531806>How can he survive using it, Sandro?!>He can because he can. *raughs*
>>288531806What's with all these fuckers and their telepathy? Why don't they use this power to read their enemy's minds?
>>288531630Wait... what was the reason he could use it?
>>288531630>>288531806"So how is his body able to withstand it?""He has talent"wtf
>>288531837That is NOT Julius
>>288531714It's actually a long con to weaken China as a wholeSince all corpo backroom decisions are decided by Kengan matches by collapsing the martial arts prodigy demographic in China with the pointless Gu rituals the Chinese will only have jobbers to rely on, weakening their economic prosperity
>>288531829>>288531855Honestly a based answer, he's just a genetic freak.
>>288531837Kogabros...?!
>>288531781>>288531805That doesn't make sense in context of Agito knowing Indestructible and Formless (now that Formless is officially a Tiger Niko technique) since he got picked up right after his Gu ritual before tiger Niko could pick him up.So Tiger Niko must have taught them that before the Gu ritual.It also means that Agito's Gu ritual involved 80 people doing the funky formless rotation in total darkness for several days at each other, probably.
>>288531861>turns it off by pressing a switch on his head
>>288531829Frankly I don't mind, a more in depth explanation might be worse. It'd be like trying to explain why Waka has Superman Syndrome.
GO GET EM WAKADAD!
>>288531873What am I looking at in the first panel? I see his eye and then ???
>>288531819Once again, the fan translations are better.>you look like an action figure
>>288531896nose and then teeth
>>288531861Oh wow, he's holding back guys. He promises not to overuse it. I AM ALREADY FUCKING MAD
>>288531882Few pages ago>You're too slow, what are you, a statue?Now>How is he so faaast
>>288531882Wasn't it already said that he knew about the blast core?
>>288531933Fuck you, Sandro
>>288531837>lower left panel's Julius is just bald Yumigahama
>>288531866>>288531891Sandro should've at least said that, instead of spending half a chapter on everyone questioning the how only to just go "Well I just can okay" (Or just not waste that time)Waka has fuck-off muscles because he has Superman Syndrome, that is the explanation.
>>288531933He's CUHHHHRRAAAZZZYYYY
>>288531933FUCKYOUFUCKYOUFUCKYOUFUCKYOUFUCKYOU
>>288531933I make that same face whenever I see Rolon
>>288531933how wacky!
>>288531923>>288531933Liu has some fucking awful luck in picking his friends.
Chapter 127: Pride
>>288531933I'M A SICK FUCKThis page is probably the one thing Sandro regrets writing the most. He still goes on to write friendship moments between Liu/Naidan/Fei/Nicolas.
>>288531893>contact>>288531902>recoil>>288531943LOLOLOLOLOL DODGED
>>288531970FUCKING SAY SOMETHING LOLONG
>>288531923I wonder if Niko meant it. Seems pretty nice of him.But he probably knew anyways
>>288531806post your dog
>>288531614God I remember THE Tokita Niko being someone who was dangerous. Why the fuck did Sandro assassinate his character so horribly?
>>288531918It was said that he only knew Waka was planning something.
wakatakatico just tanks everything and has wolverine regeneration this fight is completely steakless
>>288531970Pretty relatable final panel for this shit show
>>288531577reminder a 190lb man makes a 420lb man fly with a chop
>>288531970>>288531976Those two pages go hard.
>>288531993Wouldn't even be the second time he's done that lol
>>288531993>The symbol of Kengan matchesEhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that's Agito though
>>288531976What a waste of a spread
>>288531970>that boy Fei can do anything other than tai chi huh>I better keep my mouth shut>or im FINISHED
>>288531614>you seem like a strong Martial Artist>thanks!>come train with me>ok>*gets culled*:O
>>288532022We're still doing Tai Chi or whatever instead of the NIKO STYLE NIKO STYLE NIKO STYLE?
>>288532007Wait so this means he was unironically a top tier purgatory fighter only using tai chi?
>>288532000Hey faggot, spoilers.
>>288532037Agito is the strongest but Waka has the biggest fight record, so Waka can be seen as a mascot.
>>288532041Up to this day Waka haters still downplay this fight, but this is one of the tankiest and one of the best endurance feat in the entire series.
>>288531970LOLONG ITS BEEN 10 CHAPTERS AND YOU HAVENT SAID A WORD
>>288532057Yeah. Well if you haven't noticed, Purg really isn't the cream of the crop.
>>288531970>>288532007Man, imagine being Liu.Your best friend goes crazy, kills himself, warns you about trusting your other friend who proceeds to also go crazy (against a crazy serial killer cop that the Kengan Association for some reason brought to a no killing tournament), and finally your last friend goes crazy and literally physically transforms into some weird superclocking form out of nowhere, shooting blood bullets and stuff.Also your arm is completely shattered from your fight and it probably hurts something fucking awful.
>>288532064Also Agito left for two years.
>>288531970Bitchlon not saying a word
>>288532074>man too angry at Niko style to die
>>288532041MY FUCKING HERO
>>288531911okay but why tho
>>288532057Half of purgatory top fighters have killed themselves
>>288532099Hatsumi upscale.Get in here boys!
>>288532119This is not news.
>>288532108I don't know, Fei. You're the one making your heart run at 80k beat per second, I don't think you should criticize anyone for being reckless.
>>288532086Is that Nezu on the ground?
>>288532126Julius rooting for Waka is kinda cute.
>>288531933Horrible page. I really am tired of all these cuhrazy worm jobbers.
>>288532126>FUCK THE NIKO STYLE FUCK THE NIKO STYLE FUCK THE NIKO STYLE FUCK THE NIKO STYLEOur HERO...
>>288532126>fucking murder those t*chn*que users my muscle bröther
>>288532157His heart goes doki-doki for Niko.
>>288532126>Because I have my prideHAHAHAHAHA, the only reason this match ends in a draw was because his opponent killed himself
>>288532126Waka has some of the best faces in the seriesMan is just a golem of anger
>>288532126Julius just standing back there, leaning slightly forward and absolutely SEETHING is unreasonably funny to me
>>288532138Okay what if they sent Ohma in for the second to last fight, what then?Should've tried to bait Agito with onion rings.
>>288532171NOTICE ME SENPAIREEEEEEEEEE
>>288532138Wait a second, if his job was to win a fight against anyone not Ohma, why did he literally wait until the final two matches where he has a 50-50 shot of facing Ohma?What was he going to do if he matched up against Ohma? Take a dive?Why not just come out earlier when Kengan was first picking so he could guarantee he's not up against Ohma?
>>288532171NOOOOOOOOOO DON'T USE GRADE 3 THAT SUPER SAIYAN FORM SUCKS
>>288532197extra wide Fei
>>288532074>>288532126Does Sandro just refuse to drawn Kenganvengers taking damage? Waka has been getting the shit beaten out of him for like 15 pages now and it still feels like he's basically fine, any damage is just surface-level. A Purgatory fighter on the other hand, even with the same superman syndrome and endurance, would be missing half of their face and all of their teeth by now.
>first punch SSJ2 Fei throws fucking launches Waka accross the entire arena>suddenly Waka activate Blue Tearstone Ring and Fei can just spend several pages wailing on him and have no effectI fucking hate anime durability and I REALLY fucking hate these super modes that seem to make you actually weaker.
>>288531645He wanted to see Terashi fight to feel better about himself.
>>288532171Why didn't he just use water to disengage?
>>288532204Uhhh Sandro didn't decide that yet. Now to be fair, and I am stretching here, Agito is the only other opponent that's of the same caliber.
>>288532174It's a shame that this fight kinda sucks for him. Like him taking the beating is nice and all, but he really doesn't get to do much of anything here.
>>288532108>PARTYTIME
>>288532204>What was he going to do if he matched up against Ohma?Take him down, he clearly didn't want to let Ohma be.
Waka being ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED is hilarious
>>288532233Water Kata incompatible with possessing spirit.
>>288532231I know it's not the case, but he looks cross-eyes here because of that extra bit in the right eye.
>>288532197I love the movement in Waka's face
>>288532229>I REALLY fucking hate these super modes that seem to make you actually weaker.HeheheheheheheheheAHAHHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHA
>>288532231>>288532246I LOVE THE NIKO STYLE NIKO NIKO NIKO NIKO NIKO
>>288532246BATTER UP
>>288532275KWAB
>>288532218It's pretty egregious too because Fei is launching Waka's 400lb ass from one end of the arena to the other with lunches.This is the most powerful fighter we've ever seen and he doesn't seem to be hitting any harder than an injured pre-revival Ohma.
>>288532275Ahahaha, did he deflate like a fucking balloon?
>>288532275OH NO NO NONONO
>>288532275????????No???Is he dying in his first fucking match??????
Chapter 128: It Was You
>>288532299MINDBROKEN by the niko style
>>288532218in part 1 julius dragged him across the wall and tore half his face off in this fight he slammed his own head into the ground hard enough to shatter the concrete and only had a minor boo boo from it
>>288532246By all rights Waka should be dead from this.This is like being hit by Julius with Rei's speed straight to the face with no guarding or going limp.
>>288532275https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CM2FQeGZQ10
>>288532309:,( sad waka makes me sad
>>288532309>Never thought I'd see you get your ass kicked like thisEven in-universe this was a massacre
>>288532309>DID I LET THIS FUCKING NIKO SHITTER GET OUT ALIVE WHERE IS HE WHERE IS HE WHERE IS HE
>>288532323>Emotional support Medel
>>288532275>>288532287FAN FAVORITE CHARACTERVERSUSMOST HYPED VILLAINTAKE A GUESS WHAT FUCKING HAPPENS
>>288532309>>288532323This is technically a win for Wakatsuki.

>>288532325SUPERMAN syndrome makes him way more durable than that
>>288532337>Liu watching his second BFF die and the other is in the ICU after having a schizo meltdownPoor guy
>>288532275I remember this got leaked the week before and it was a topic of hot debate as to whether it was real or not.The main argument for it being fake was that it was too dumb an ending, even for Sandro.Lol. Lmao.
>>288532337Alisa needs a fucking therapist jesus christ
>>288532337HANAFUSA?????HACK???WHAT?
I FUCKING HATE SANDRO
>>288532246>>288532299>that fucking punch>from someone probably even stronger as Waka with super saiyan 3 running>this little damage
>>288532360No, it's the other page. It's coming.
>>288531567holy fuark, fei(forma gaseosa) is unstoppable!
>Hanafusa in the infirmary like 5m away from the arena : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTczCpIaLAU
>>288532376>We're wary of you, so we brought Kowho and an old man.
>>288532376>I didn't ask for you twoYeah, this is Ohma's show, get lost!
>>288532359OH NO NO NO YAOI BROS WE GOT SHUT DOWN
>>288532323>>288532337Liu may have won his match but he ends the day with two of his friends dead and the last one in a coma.But such is the price one needs to pay in order to have a legit win against a member of the Kengan Association.You must either sacrifice your friends, or kill yourself.
>>288532376>i didnt ask for this retarded flanderized old man and this random secondary characterSANDRO PLEASE
>>288532376>I didn't ask for you twoNO SUPPORTING CHARACTERS
>>288532299I would just like to remind everyone yet again what happened to Yumi when he got beat up by a midget half his size, now look at how Waka looks after taking the strongest direct hit we've ever seen.
>>288532376>I didn't ask for you two... >...who the fuck is that blonde guy anyway?
>>288532399YEAH, WHAT ABOUT RYUKI WHO YOU HAVE LEFT ALONE FOR GOD KNOWS HOW LONG???
>>288532413>Talks about Ryuki>silhouette looks like Kiryu>Ryuki is nowhere to be seen
>>288532399HIGHER HEIGHTSIGHERHEIGHTS
>>288532386Can't Tiger Niko just like... teach more people the Niko style? He's still clearly alive right? What's stopping him from taking on more pupils?
>>288532275Kind of a lame resolution here.
>>288532442STOP VAGUEPOSTING
>>288532429This is a joke Fei, a joke that's over 350 chapters long at this point.
>>288532376>Remove the supporting characters, Ohma only
>>288532399By Fei's understanding of what the Tiger's Vessel is, it makes no sense for him to not consider Agito a candidate here
>>288532439>>288532413Kiryu letters when rearranged is... Ryuki
>>288532454Give it a while, all will be answered.
>>288532457my reaction to this entire fight
>>288532457My reaction to this chapter and basically every plot point moving forward.
>>288532454Not enough data.
>>288532323Agito, what the FUCK do you mean by that. He was literally groomed by the same guy as you. Where's the sympathy?
>>288532483Post it. You know what.
DONEHow would you improve Fei's story?
>>288532483There's the one.
>>288532483lmaooo
>>288532337If this guy was from the Kengan Association, Hanafusa would be able to save him btw. But I guess he's racist against non-Kengans.
>>288532499How about not killing him in his first match for absolutely no reason whatsoever? I think that would be a start? Seriously, what?
>>288532483>People didn't believe this was real
>>288532492Unlike that FILTHY, DISGUSTING BLASPHEMER, our HERO Agito never stopped being a devout believer.
>>288532457I agree with fei here what was the point of all this tiger vessel shit and wasting all that time training everyone if you were just going to clone shen anyways
>>288531559Why exactly wasn't Saw considered again?
>>288531600>video game comparisonThat's a shot. Also>I can't let up for a moment until I've defeated him>haha guess it's fine to let him give me a hug lolI hate Sandro so fucking much.
>>288532499Not kill him for one, make him actually somewhat sad that he has to leave purg and for the love of GOD don't make him kill himself if you just have to have him die.
>>288532499Keep him around, have him be a recurring villain. Sandro just ran through his rogue's gallery just to vaguepost.
>>288532499>How would you improve Fei's story?Waka should've one-shot him I think.
Now posting the peak of Keng/a/n
>>288532041HE GETS UPAGAIN AND AGAINAND AGAIN
>>288532442>>288532457>>288532469>>288532474I like to think that Fei actually still has no idea who or what the Tiger's Vessel is, but he just wanted to use the last moments of his life to vaguepost as a prank to absolutely confuse the shit out of Ohma and Kazzy and Koga, and also a bit out of pure spite.
>the only Worm fighter who actually won his match is the one who killed himself
>>288532275Water and Earth Kata: Gains Goblin
>>288532275FUCK YOUTHIS IS BULLSHIT
>>288531933shame that he doesn't have a worm tattoo on his tongue too, my expectations would've been subverted even more!
>>288532528We absolutely needed Akoya on the team instead.
>>288532499Holy shit the new move he learned must he so POWERFUL nothing can stop tiger niko now.
Fei Wangfang character profile, phoneposted.
>>288532499What the FUCK did he even learn from this fight? That you eventually explode if you use the two super modes together? He already knew that.
>>288532499What data did he collect from those matches, other than Formless being a dead end and maybe it's a bad idea to overclock both your heart and brain at the same time.
>>288532499Next time you see tiger niko fight remind yourself that 4000 chinese kids died for this.
>>288532499Wow.
>>288532499Thanks OP, here's the poll for the rating of Waka vs Feihttps://docs.google.com/forms/d/1-ARzvdRLQV7khq3IZS_-S5R35gMk7n2Y56y265IOmPI
>>288532598>Overclocking is bad>Might need more thermal paste???
>>288532598>>288532602You can just tank 4000 chinese orphans worth of Niko bullshit with muscles.Need to fix that with a move that pierces defense.
>>288532520Tiger is a rogue element in the organization, most of his bullshit is just for the sake of his "research" and while his method is incredibly wasteful it produces combatants for the Worm. Niko just made the vessel thing up as a carrot to dangle in front of his "students", he isn't looking to pass his techniques to anyone, just throwing shit (and students) at a wall to see what sticks.
I like how Niko simultaneously throws his students away like garbage constantly, something his students can see first hand and yet somehow instills loyalty verging on worship.How does he do it? Well...I think I'll leave it open to interpretation.
>>288532108a festival... a party even...
>>288532587>I was actually going to kill him earlierlol, that all you have to say Sandro?
>>288532602Niko style has "evolved" when you see him use his new technique it will be "unfathomable"
>>288532499
>>288532632I suppose those who survive form a stronger attachment because they think they're special and you (presumably) consider them special as well
>>288532499What happened to Muteba?
>>288531933Society! SOOOCIETY!
>>288532171>>288532197THIS IS TO GO EVEN FURTHER BEYOND
>>288532587>Was supposed to fight Waka>in KAT2>And loseSo what was the original plan here anyway? You get Ohryuki and have him just lose to Waka? And bullshit on the worm being conceptualised that early.
>>288532469>The tiger vessel it was you all alongHe was right Ohma The Tiger, Ryuki The Dragon, Hushen and Shen
4000 chinese orphans... but we actually train all of them to create an elite fighting force.
>>288532246
>>288532549Liu won fair and square
>>288532083Wasn't he also friends with the "You've got it all wrong" guy. Fucking THREE of his friends were Worms poor guys got a bad picker
>>288531933>oh no people are actually liking my new villain QUICK DARO MAKE HIM CRAZYFACE WHILE SAYING HE HATES HIS FRIENDS
>>288532700Liu ain't a Worm.
>>288532682Technically it doesn't say he'd lose.But I think it could be neat that they'd use a fellow Niko Style user lose to Waka so there's set-up for Ohma going up against him.Fei can still come back afterwards.
>>288532275He went full Zudah...
>>288532376Ohma and Koga have the exact same face
i cant stop laughing about how tiger niko did all of this to learn some stupid pinch move that gives your opponent rug burn
I'm green so here's my little rant ig>Make a character with a good design and fun personality >Apparently you've hyped him up since the end of Ashura so it's been over 2-3 years since you've introduced their character >First major fight>Have him massively overpower his opponent with secret technique >He overclocks last second and kills himself ending his character and any intriguing narrative hooks he had alongside it>Vagueposts on his deathbed about some random bullshitActually abyss tier writing. People were being generous desu with this shit. Jesus...
>>288531943I don't get it. How did Waka step through him like that? The Blast Core was hitting Fei head on.If Fei managed to limbo out of the way of the punch then Waka should've tackled/tripped over Fei.
This is such a deranged thing to write.For all intents and purposes Fei was the Tiger's Vessel because he had a 1 in a billion talent that enabled him to master multiple martial arts styles including the Niko style, and he could endure Divine Devil for a while.But instead he just gets thrown in the garbage while Niko laughs about it.And there's legit no payoff for this. Fei is still one of the strongest characters in the series. Niko himself is a cuck. No one gained anything from this.
>>288532337hanafusa should just pop a new heart into him, its not too hard for him after all
>>288532745I implore you to stick around because the writing can in fact sink deeper than the abyss.
>>288532737I remember the theories about how he figured out some new form after seeing fei's super form, that would have been way better than what we got.
>>288532745So just out of curiosity, we have two fights lined up. The mythical Rolon and the last remaining member of the "Evil is on the move" gang.How do you feel about their odds?
>>288532256>>288532275God this could have been the sickest shit and then Sandro just has to immediately ruin it
>>288532483wait fei is dead already what the fuck? I thought he was gonna be like the final villain or something. wasn't he the middle guy in the "evil is on the move" page? what the fuck??
>>288532478>Give it a while, all will be answered.>All will be answered>Be answeredPic related.
>>288531588
I dont get it why did he killed himself for some no stakes fight?
>>288532745Haha yeah. You're beginning to "see". Chapter 50 was the canary in the mine, then we had a few smaller moments like the Fangbowl and such that were bad omens and wastes of characters, but this was a REALLY big one. This was just the first step in a chain reaction of absolute fucking trash that permanently mindbroken these threads, however. Buckle up. The "tragedy" is approaching.
>>288532745>and any intriguing narrative hooks he had alongside itHonestly, I'm a bit baffled. He's like *the* major mystery box of KA's last third and he just died to do nothing!I imagine some cursed timeline of Dragon Ball where Nail would just fucking murder Frieza during the Namek Arc and things would go on from there and somehow I feel like it'd be less stupid than this!
bro trust the plan there are payoffs to all this GYAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>288532815Well, it was. See >>288532499Is it a satisfactory answer? No, but it is how it is.
>>288532429>>288532442>>288532457
>>288532598>hmm, one in a billion genetic freak isn't enough for that>time to look for a one in a trillion genetic freak and try again
>>288532769Sandro gained a few laughs from it.
>>288532483Another outstanding win for purgatory>inb4 it was a drawDrawing is just denying your opponent a win so its still a win
>>288532745"you" havent seen nothing "yet"honestly, just keep reading it, its like we are watching the lore getting inside a slow blender, it just keeps getting worse and worse
>>288532820To prove he was the tiger vessel by going full throttle
>>288532041Why is no one talking about the fucked up perspective here? Shiina is literally at STANDING height when compared to both Waka and Fei.
>>288532829>the "tragedy" is approaching>approachingAbsolutely unfathomable. I can't even imagine where things can possibly go from here.
Keep it in your pants faggots, don't ruin the surprise.
>>288532882look at the floor tiles, she's at least one floor tile closer to the point of view, so that makes up for it dummy
>>288532790With Rolon I have no idea honestly I think it'll be ok if nothing else. Edward Wu is either going to be abysmal or great when he goes down I don't see any in between lol. Seeing what happened to Fei and Xia Ji I'm not optimistic
>>288532587haha yea guys, it was planned all along!
>>288532598>>288532602Well...I'll leave that up to interpretation.
>>28853280>>288532820:) I love watching the "green" as they "scale the wall".
>>288532668he had a knife last time we saw him..
>>288532359lol
>have a well-paying job as a referee in a pseudo-underground martial arts org>honestly you're mostly there for the eye candy but things are going well, the attention is nice and the fighters are cool people>you're gonna handle THE big event against your rival org>half the fighters there have kill counts in the double digits>half the fighters on your side reveal to be weird chinese death cultists>no one listens to you>every other match ends with someone dying>you're probably going to be next>oh god>someone help me
>>288531933i can finally post it
>>288532261>>288531933>>288531943
>>288531600Every manga that uses video game comparisons always uses the most generic looking setting. Imagine if Sandro put a spiky haired warrior with a huge, massive sword vs a WEAPON
>>288532969The Alisa bullying must continue.
The Niko train is not stopping!Things are about to get more insane!!!
>>288532912If she was further away. Things don't get smaller the closer they are to the viewer unless you're doing forced perspective bullshit like the LotR films.The art there is just bad.
>>288532820cuz niko-sensei said so
>>288532197>>288532216>>288532231Waka tried to murder him here btw.
>>288533003Murder is okay when we do it.
>>288532979Yeah, and he got tapped.>>288531957 because the possessing spirit limited his movements.
>>288533000you see, she was just REALLY close to the viewer, but very FAR from the fighters, you just couldn't "grasp" it
Waka stopped caring, he wanted to destroy all related to the niko style
>>288531957? But he missed?
>>288531837Would Koga really say that?
>>288533037Then that makes her even shorter.
>>288531873Would this have been more kino without the "Now!"?
>>288532041Waka what are you even doing, Fei is still at full health.
>>288531837Honestly yeah Julius must be like"Who let this fucking retard in? Who the fuck is him anyway why is he with us? Stop yelling over every fucking attack christ"
>>288533026I don't know if that's the case, he got caught by surprise so there could be other factors. Water Kata wasn't the one most incompatible with Possessing Spirit anyway, that was Adamantine because it tightened up the body and risked rupturing the blood vessels.
>>288531933Sandro Style: Complete Character Assassination >>288532275Sandro Style: Villain's EXIT>>288532057Purg is unironically full of Boat Jobbers and R1 Fodder>Skeleton App user>Medicine Man but he's a faggy ninja>Julius but with 2 Niko Style Kata's>The bully who gets bullied Fang>A Western Character >Nerve poker the Frenchman >Whatever Terashi was suppose to beAnd then you have the "King" of these clowns Liu and Jurota are the only one's I see making it past R1 in KAT, not counting the Worms
>>288531933I hope Sandro can meet Togashi at a party someday and get some pointers. Hopefully Araki and Oda #3 or #4 can be there as well
>>288533059she's shorter on "reach" but closer on "range", you just couldnt see it....yet
>>288531957this is the moment that sealed his fatehe was turning off the technique to prevent overheating of both brain and heart, but being grazed by this blast core hit is the start of it allfei could have beaten waka still even with just normal form and niko technique, but no, he lost his cool, he's now hellbent on the "how DARE he hit me? ME? HIT? OH YOU'RE GETTING IT NOW" and restarted the divine demonfrom this moment on, it's irreversiblewaka had his pride to carry on, and it was fei's pride that made him dead
>>288532037Waka is like the Charizard to Agitos Pikachu
>>288532171>Waka can't barely keep up against base form>He is being beaten mercilessly on ssj2>Fei goes ssj3Bro Sandro, you are only supposed to power up your villains once they are out of resources, otherwise what's the point, it just makes Waka looks bad.
Hassad soon.
If fei just stuck to his tai chi he would have won
>>288533140t.
>>288532246HAS WAKA LANDED FUCKING ANYTHING.
>>288531933>MY VILLAINS BEING ANYTHING OTHER THAN COMICALLY EVIL? NO I DONT WANT THATFUCK YOU SANDRO FUCK YOU
>>288533087Toa muda would beat R2 wakatsuki, pre memory ohma and no technique Raian.
I feel like Fei could have easily won this battle without killing himself
>>288531657Maybe Niko is just a shit teacher.
>>288532256>>288532275>>288532287>Waka gets punched out>his consciousness fades as he sees Fei still standing there>Fei explodes>he staggers and slowly says that he wasn't the one>falls down>somehow hits the ground at the exact same time as wakaYeah okay Sandro. Anything to avoid the tournament ending in a draw to force a Koga tiebreaker.
>>288532287Like who is happy with this. Waka is knocked out bleeding after being toyed with for monthsFei is there fucking dead because Niko was having a cheeky laugh, he received no damage during that fight.
>>288531806Reminder that Ohma didn't learn the Advance, it was literally punched into him by Niko.
>>288532218Waka is built different. Didn't Hayami get shown to be pretty grisly after Jurota?
>>288533152But then the kenganvengers would have lost, we can't have worm being intimidating and threatening the first time we are introduced to them.
In the spam of 76 chapters Sandro has single handed destroyed the end of Asura, turned the niko style, advance and removal into complete jokes, killed the hype multiple times with absurd results and subversions, flanderized most of the characters and assassinated for no reason interesting characters. And remember, "we" still are in the "enjoyable" part of Omega.
>>288532323Bro Fei was a fucking lad during this fight, not even once he tried to murder Waka which he could had done easily.
>>288532499>How would you improve Fei's story?Ohma stayed the fuck dead and Fei became the sole practitioner of the Niko style other than Tiger Niko. Shen has fuck all to do with the Tigers Vessel and it's still 100% Tiger Niko's thingThe Niko Style goes from the hero's martial art to the villains martial art and Fei becomes a sour spot for Kazzy and a rival for Ryuki who's using an outdated Martial art that the Niko Style surpassed. Mukaku's student vs Tiger Niko's student, Gaoh Style vs Niko Style. Ryuki will have to rework the Gaoh Style to be able to beat Fei after their initial fight leaves Ryuki battered and humiliated >>288533152Going super duper suicide mode had Fei knocking out Waka in one punch to the face. Fei effectively chipped away at Waka's health and probably would have won had he combo'd Waka instead of going for the risky super move
>>288533174>he received no damage during that fightthat's the point, he damaged himself so much that he died, waka on the other hand just tanked it all
>>288531837But Kengan Associaton will win from that, Koga. It's using your opponent's strategy against them, retarded as it is.
>>288533152Yeah but we need Ohma to save the day against the KING
>>288532337A Paramedic can't know that without images.
Well nu-kengies I'd say things about to finally close now (imo). If the Kengan dump anon is reading my post I'd say end this whole thing when the purgatory arc is done. There wouldn't be a point catching up with the rest of the manga, it goes downhill from here. The next fight will show where the entirety of Kengan has been since it's release and why keng/a/n has become what it is. You'll become as mad and insane as me and the rest of the MADHOUSE if you continue. Though that's my opinion and if this idea is brought up a few times maybe call a vote to continue the daily dump.
>>288532074Akoya would've won here
>>288533191Even in your alternate timeline Koga is still relegated to side character status.
>>288532737The best thing to come out of that fight was Akoya's ass grenade
>>288532386Gaoh?????
>>288532041I'm still amazed that Waka is tanking all of this yet one move from faggotsbane and he almost died in Ashura.
>>288531912dont wanna defend sandro but its clear that its because he waited until fei turned off his super form which is explicitly said to be the source of his improved reflexes and speed
>>288532737that was beyond dumb and also sandro's way to copy baki's whip
>>288531933I'm actually getting tired of this. Impressive writing.
>>288532126Are Germans fightfags? Or are they to civilized to enjoy brawls? Like swedes?
>>288531559Wait what when did Nezu get here
>>288532457Niko didn't force you to use a suicide technique against an opponent who was basically done.
>>288533192You can't just call being beaten unconscious tanking.
>>288532323This is such a psychotic moment from Sandro. Fei died because he was groomed and manipulated by the same person Agito was, and all Agito has to say is that he deserved it for some reason when Fei did literally nothing evil in this match, or at all frankly, to our knowledge of his character. The worst thing he ever did was kill people in the Gu(which Agito also did, on top of killing people in Kengan matches), and kill Long Min, who was trying to kill him too.Great moment of Sandro moralityscaling to refer to in the future.
>>288531933I don't get this guy's obsession with making villains crazy guys who hate each other. I know its supposed to show that they are evil or whatever but bad people can still have relationships and friends. That's why people like the Phantom Troupe from HxH so much. They're all friends who care about each other despite being psycho murderers
>>288531933sandro genuinely needs to be smitten down by a higher force he actually needs to be struck by thunder they need to curse his bloodline whatever god is up there needs to do SOMETHING against this fucking hack
>>288532483EVIL IS ON THE MOVE.
>>288533274People like Naidan/Liu yaoi too much for Sandro's liking
>>288533152Fei likely could have won without using Divine Demon at all with how the fight was going at first. Even then, with how he was launching Waka around the arena, he could have just forced a ring out at any time.
>>288533216>denying green readers the tragedy, Lu Tian, Xia Ji and Yumi returning just to be humiliated, Shen making himself retarded to fight Mukaku and Niko going from the beast he's depicted as in this arc to the cowardly bitch he is now?I don't think so anon, the Gu Ritual has already begun.
>>288531606>>288531614>>288531621>but how can he do it?>>288531630>he is simply built differentFour pages for this
>>288532483Dead Purgatory fighters: 3Purgatory fighters on a coma: 1Purgatory fighters on the hospital7 (One has a broken arm)Purgatory fighters on the bench: 1Purgatory strongest lineup.
>>288532204I think given his reputation as one of the kings, he also has to meet certain unspoken expectations.
>>288531559Suddenly these guys.
ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON ROLON
>>288532989>the most generic looking settinganon it's just dragon quest
>>288533268>took the strongest blow ever shown to his face>gets knocked out back>the guy who threw the punch just dies>gets up seconds laterI'd say that's tanking alright
>>288532483ANOTHER OVERWHELMING PURGATORY VICTORY.
>>288531588He's got the tism too?
>>288532197Hit him, please hit him
>>288531600Why is Fei a villain again, he past time playing vidya and hangs out with Liu.
>>288533300He was just one of the Demon Fists like Liu and Lu, who both went out earlier. The kings were Jurota and Lolong(the former of whom also went out when he felt like). In fact, Fei was originally offering to go out against Misasa in Yumi's place. Imagine the better timeline he would have had.
>>288532499I will be honest Im already extremely tired of this motherfucker.>"you see, Do remember that day you shat your pants and there was no toilet paper?? IT WAS TIGER NICO I hope he at least can be strong because everything that happened can be traced to this guy that he feels like a demiurge figure.
>>288533339He wanted to learn more niko style stuff and wasn't a kenganvenger
>>288532081He's shitting himself because he knows Fei would one tap him
>>288532275FUCK FEI NOFUCK FUCKQUICK USE WATER KATABULLSHIT KATA ANYTHIGN DONT FUCKING DIE FEI NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>288533218Koga's getting fucked regardless because he has nothing to do with the Niko Style or the Worms, which the plot centers itself around. The one time it looks like he might get some involvement with them Shen immediately forgets about him and stops caring He'd just be Ryuki's friend trying really hard to both anchor him from becoming a murder hobo again and to protect him from a terrorist cultYou'd have to make Yumi an actual threat worth beating and surpassing, give Koga some of his own rogue gallery to beat or try to write his whole "Guy getting caught in a whole mess of someone else's trouble" plot betterJust make him a guy who's goal goes from wanting to surpass a dead man to wanting to become stronger so he can protect his friends
>>288531861>Most terrifying >Proceeds to not do a single thing
Reminder that Wakatsuki landed ZERO HITS this fight.Let that sink in.
>>288532499>So if I pileup 3 different suicide techniques on top of each other you die >Techniques I don't even use or want to learn>I have all the data I needWas killing 4000 people and training them for more than a decade worth this little insight?
>>288533375His opponent punched him so hard he died, that is technically doing something
>>288532275>>288532287Man, my expectations were low.
>>288533388he landed hits, but the niko style somehow made them not landI FUCKING HATE THE NIKO STYLE
>>288532323God's domain, now?
>>288532413Is there ever a point as to why ryuki was made or is it just a dropped plot after ch 50?
>he needs to punch his opponents to win
>>288532323You dont have to be such an asshole Agito
>>288532399That's right Kazzy, this DESPICABLE VILLAIN dared to want to be EVEN STRONGER, despite how he had already ARROGANTLY INFRINGED UPON GOD'S DOMAIN! Spit on him as he receives his JUST DESSERTS for this sin, unlike our wholesome seekerinos who want to "scale the wall" the CORRECT way!
>>288532457Terrible writing.
>>288533428shen wanted 2 vessels
>>288533428There is a point to why Ryuki and Ohma were both made. It's stupid, but there is one.Does that mean Ryuki will ever be relevant again? Well.... I'll leave it up to interpretation.
>>288531933The third impact...
>>288533428 Their donor, Shen, has two personalities and those two personalities have their own set of DNA and they're both just so fucking strong they want to implant their halves of their brains into Ohma and Ryuki so they can fuck I mean fight each other I almost believe this was made up to justify having Ohma around and making Ryuki redundant
>>288532376Genuine questionWhy the fuck is Koga even there?
>>288532275i'm someone who in most cases will actually defend the concept of "subversions" as a necessary storytelling element, specially in the modern era where everyone is hyper aware of genre tropes and the artificiality of stories, you need twists to make stuff exciting so i would never hate on something purely because there was some upset or the intended result was flipped on its headeven then there's just no fucking excuse for this, its not making the fight more exciting, its not adding more stakes to the story, its not revealing something new about the setting or characters, its purely sandro walking back the fact he made an antagonist too likeable and too strong and couldn't bear the idea of one of his hero characters getting clearly outmatched, if anything its not even "subversive" because we still ended up with the stock standard result of "the good guy wins because he's good" its just with the most retarded path possible to get there
>>288532829I've seen people mention that but I honestly thought this was it. Is it the wall scaling thing?
>>288532309>hitting Fei with "one hell of a m*nster" while he's already dyingThis feels uncharacteristically cruel and bloodthirsty for Rihito. Is he that bitter over his match?
This fight feels like a parody>my opponent hasn't landed a clean hit on me>time to use my suicide move
I wish we could skip ohma vs longlong and go stright to the kure vs the wu fight
>>288532413So according to this, to be the Tiger's vessel you need both the techniques and the genes. Fei only has the genes so why did that retard think he would be chosen as the vessel? SANDRO ANSWER ME
>>288532359why did he make what could've been his last words a blatant lie?
>>288533514>kure vs the wu fightoh, dear anon.... you don't want to see that....
>>288531855Literally just built different
>>288533484Don't encourage them, you're better off experiencing this stuff without someone giving you time ready yourself for whatever is to come.
>>288532499I think this nigga is coping hard. He taught 4000 people and all of them are dead now. Also no surprise there, Muteba brought a knife after all.
>>288531957This is just Kenichi's fight against Sho.
>>288533514I cznt believe we are less than a week away from the "tragedy"
Its so easy to fix this fight >Have Waka outclass base Fei, not annoy with a single grab, outright outbeat>Fei needs to power up, he is ahead of Waka now but Waka manages to damage him during Fallen demon short-circuits>Fei realizes while winning he might not be able to outlast Waka and tries to finish in ssj2>You can keep Waka being manhandled but he also knows he just needs to endure as Fei is puking blood and starts schizo rambling, that way when Fei heart explodes its not unexpected There, you make Fei not look retarded and Waka not helpless.
>>288532457Me reading every chapter
>>288532499niko's mind will be fucking blown the moment he learns that students are not single use consumables
>>288533518I think he meant Ryuki and Ohma share genes but not techniques
>>288533542He didn't want to train anyone those were worms orders, If tiger niko had his way he would just be eating at fancy restaurants everyday.
>>288532809Evil is on the move......to the realm of the dead
>>288532745This is only the start of a massive party
>>288531976Good page though
>>288533478Kuroki beating Agito poisoned Sandro's mind I feel, as good as it was back then. He took the wrong lesson from it being so massively popular(we know that he knows this, Daro talked about it). He decided that the reason it was so good was because the big hyped up final boss didn't make it to the finals and lost to someone besides the MC who wasn't particularly main plot relevant himself, it being a good fight wasn't the main draw.So surely repeating that beat over and over will be just as loved and won't get old, hyped antagonists being beaten or killed in their first fights is subversive giga kino even though it happens so often that a villain surviving, let alone WINNING their first fight against a non-antagonist themself becomes a mind blowing twist itself.
>>288532048>>288532062>fei literally lets waka punch him for style pointsBut Sandro wants me to believe that Fei is struggling? lol
>>288533632Fei died so that means Waka is clearly stronger
>>288532126Julius is such a fanboy
>>288532998Please stop comparing Niko to the loathsome Niko Style, thank you
Why is Alisa not giving out the win to Fei? He is the one dead.
>>288533652Fei died because despite being an EVIL PIECE OF SHIT he kindly obeyed Purgatory rules to the very end even though he doesn't care about Purgatory at all :^)
>>288533216>it goes downhill from hereYeah because it wasn't before that
>>288532171>Hangon, I'm a worm. I have to kill myself, NOW!
>>288533664That worthless piece of shit couldn't even be bothered to die quickly enough for it to count as a win, just like that filthy ape Yumigahama.
>>288532360>>288532483I still remember when this panel was one of the first to leak and everyone couldn't believe it was real because the perspective and the blood on his face looked so shit.
>>288533664What, did Waka kill him with his face to fist style?
>
>>288532323>He's dyingShouldn't this be a win for purgatory?
>>288533679Purg Fighters use ring outs when they're desperate but have a strange aversion to using it when the other guy keeps getting back up despite getting beaten the fuck up and outskilled
>>288532359He escaping this yaoi manga.
>>288532323>Look Daro, time for one of three major villains I teased back in Ashura to fight.>He's charming and so strong he can pummel Wakatsuki in a contest of strength, not to mention he's even more adept as the Niko style than Ohma.>All right, now time to kill him off.Baffling
Why are Alisa's boobs so big?
>>288532587>the fighter substitution rule ended up not being used>Marvelous SekiThis fucking hack can't even remember his own manga anymore lmao.
>>288533773Carrying Toyoda's kid will do that to a woman
>>288533753Liu did at least
>>288531559>Niko style secret third technique: same technique as the second but with a different nameUNFATHOMABLE
>>288532337Poor Liu, this is the worst fucking tournament of his life.>>288532349Medel is being so nice
>>288533739fei DOMINATED waka the entire fight even without the stupid SSJ formall waka hits were rendered harmless, even the strongest blast core whiffed or deal minimal damage by grazingcan't award a win for fei's death definitely when none of his bleeding out came from waka, at alland they were downed at the same time, so after it was declared a draw, death after that doesn't count
Was the Liu vs TokuToku a lightning in the bottle moment?
>>288533813ohma tech : overclock the heartkiryu tech : overclock the brainfei tech : overclock both
>>288533853Take note that that was the only match where it was two Omega original characters fighting so Sandro hadn't already imprinted on them and gotten psychotically obsessed with making them both look good and neither were W*rms, Kure/Wu, or related to either.
>>288532399If only Tiger Niko had taught Fei Niko Style Secret Technique: Indian Burn>>288532474Sandro forgot
>Sandro: Fei is a twisted fucking psychopath that hates the Purg cast, you should hate him>also Sandro:
>>288532457Niko is lucky that Fei basically commited suicide because if Setsuna gave him trouble Fei is definitely more than strong enough to kill him
>>288533773Let's just say she wasn't hired for beong great at stopping fights
>>288532543>>288532474it's not that difficult to "grasp">fei was a survivor of gu ritual like many others>agito was also one, but he was not picked up by tiger niko, metsudo raided the place before tiger could, agito is now under the care of metsudo>anyway, tiger gathered up other survivors and started training>3 left, fei ranjo min, each were then taught the two secret tech of tiger, overclocking heart and overclocking brain>ranjo and min couldn't achieve the second tech (or at least could, but find the first tech of boosting physical spec better than improved dodge), fei achieved both and managed to combine the two (which is why it's such a surprise to min who were also taught the same)>was lied to by tiger who told him tiger's vassel is being student of niko's style (agito only learned the basics before the gu ritual)
>>288532499Fei should have just skedaddled after beating Waka and remain a reoccurring antagonist and rival to Ohma. Also make it so that he did like hanging out with Liu and the others.Later on he becomes a reluctant ally against Niko and Shen after realizing he's been played all his life.
>>288533347I can't believe that Yumi got baited by Misasa's childhood taunts specifically after he talked about not getting baited.I can't believe he had three chances to accomplish his goal of avoiding a fang and blew all three of them.
>>288534064would this have been so hard, sandro?nope, gotta kill two of the villains introduced at the end of ashura in the first arc, make the last one a joke and bring back one from the dead
>>288532359>fuck this gay manga I'm outI mean, fair
>as long as i dont do this i will win>does it anyway This just makes the kengan fighters look super lucky not strong and competent. How am I supposed to take you seriously when half your opponents just kill themselves.
>>288532197I FUCKING HATE THE NIKO STYYYYYYLEEEEEEEEEEE
>>288532399you might as well not post this page since everything about it gets retconned.
>>288532457so fei knows ohma looks exactly like Shen, but didnt know Ohma was a clone of him? Was he just shitposting since he was dead anyway?
>>288531861
>>288532197>>288532216i know this fight is kinda shit and all but man these pages are fuckin cool
>>288534067>>288534113Sandro adores having a character go "If I don't do (retarded thing I have no reason to do), I win" and then having them immediately do the thing.
>>288531933>EH? MAKE A VILLAIN WHO ISN'T JUST A COMPLETE PSYCHO ASSHOLE PIECE OF SCUM FAGGOT CUHRAZEEEEE MAN WHO JOBS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY?>NOOOO WAYYYY!
>>288534164He knew >>288532413
>>288534164other way around he knew he was a clone but didnt realize he was a clone of shen until just before he died
>>288532337>Alisa has seen 3 dudes die so far in one day, including one dude getting fucking ripped in half>Liu has lost his 2 best friends in Purgatorypoor fuckers
>>288532074Did Sandro forget Divine Demon has increased reaction speed? No way a collapsing guy can hug Fei
>>288534211And its evolution
>>288531567So that's how you powercreep the water elementals: gaseous form

>>288532126>>288532138>>288532157>>288532171Sandro wants you to believe that there is no Niko Style technique for getting out of a bear hug other than overclocking your heart and brain>But Waka's Superman Syndrome!Fei has been no-selling Waka's punches and only getting dealt like half the damage or none at all, in fact this entire fight has been Fei beating Waka, Waka going "Ah but I've been training for this moment!" and then getting assaulted again because he trained against the techniques used by a zombie and not someone with a healthy body who knew what he was doingThere was absolutely a technique for Fei to get out of that
>>288531630I actually dig this. Pure anthropic principle.
>>288532323>Ohma used his suicide technique several times, ignore everyone's pleadYeah he was the coolest guy. Truly our Asura>Fei used his suicide tẹchnique onceFucking piece of shit deserves to die
>>288531630Does this mean if you took a group of 4000 random people one of them would be potentially Fei tier?
>>288531909You're NOT. FUCKING. SUBTLE. GODDAMN. RETARD. This is why I don't care about these threads anymore
>>288531861>he bought?
>now that the audience finally gets to see the main villain of omega how do I hype them up?>I GOT IT! they kill themselves
>>288531911Nambu spotted
>>288531933Worst writing decision in all of Omega and that's a tough fucking competition
>>288534377All of the 4000 people were supposed prodigies so fei is more like a one and a billion situation, which makes it ten times more retarded that tiger niko gave him the okay to kill himself.
>>288533108TAGS. SPOILER TAGS. THEY EXIST.
>>288531923Unironically a nice moment between the->>288531933Never mind
>>288534346Didn't Ohma literally use some sweat technique to get out of Cosmos's hold?Surely Fei could have done that.
my understanding of all this is thatworms, being servant of shen, cloned shen for eventual replacementmeanwhile also conditioned the clones to be ready to accept shen's consciousness, tiger niko being in league with the worms handle the "tiger's vessel" while the worm handle the "dragon's vessel"ryuki, a clone that is closest to complete dragon's vessel, was nabbed by mukaku at very young age and purposedly raised wrong as a joke, which is what enraged shen so muchnaidan the executive worm knows ryuki is the dragon's vessel, and suicided himself to return ryuki to his base instinct of dragon shen he has had since birth because he's a clonenaidan did succeed, ryuki would have slowly "remember" his DNA, but setsuna intervened (setsuna was also a student of tiger niko so he picked up on the plan of tiger niko, also what caused them to fight later)ohma, also a clone and one of the candidates for tiger's vessel, was picked up and raised by ohma niko while living in the "inside" (a gu ritual in a sense) and closely stalked by tiger niko who track the progress of candidatestiger niko managed to forcefully kickstart heart overclock on ohma, putting him on the path of becoming tiger's vessel (remember that tiger niko learned this from wu clan, also under shen)my guess is that tiger shen and dragon shen each mastered completely different technique, tiger shen could advance (ohma), while dragon shen is effective killer (ryuki)
>>288531970>Chapter 127: PrideI agree Liu
>>288531976The absolute STATE of Wakatsuki
>>288531976Is this the best flurry of blows Daro's drawn?
>>288531861The "twitch" is definitely a stroke attack right?
>>288534318>I can win this match by simply throwing Waka/Masaki out of bounds>but that's how losers think
>>288532007Really makes me interested in how Nezu would do in this tournament given how shit purgs are
>>288531933Then...don't make friend? No one forced you. Even among Purg we have loner like Lolong
>>288533087You just said it yourself, Toa is Better Ashura Julius. In the right seed he's finals material.
>>288534429What's a spoiler there? The dump was long over and Fei was deceased by that post.
>>288534391sadly fei got the "timing" wrong and ruined sandro's "party", if he had simply not died the manga would've not "scaled the wall" of the nearby landfill to start swimming in the waste
>>288532074>literally superhuman reflexes>sees the other guy moving in slow motion>only gets hit when he lets himself>STILL GETS FUCKING BEAR HUGGEDSandro you unbelievable hack
>>288532074Why is he looking at him like that...
>>288532275So he was just a glass canon after all. Getting hit while in DD state accelerates the strain being put on his body.
If you kill yourself that means you opponent cant kill you, this fight is technically a win for fei.
>>288532108You can't say that Fei
>>288532126Waka upscale (telepathy feat)
>>288534445That's about the best way you can rationalize Sandro's script, even so there are a lot of oddities like Ohma just being left alone to roam for all of Ashura until he nearly killed himself.
>>288532126>BECAUSE I HAVE MY HATRED FOR THE NIKO STYLE
>>288532171SANDRO VILLAIN ULTIMATE TECHNIQUE: FUCKING COMMIT SUICIDE FOR NO REASON
>>288532171But why Fei...
>>288534480I'll admit I might have overreacted a little but that's still a reply to a page before those ones and sile people, me included (although I'm not green) like to read replies while reading chapter.
>>288532197Oh no divine devil made his ribcage expand
>>288532197>>288532216>>288532231>>288532246>>288532256I remember reading this for the first time when it came out. We got spoilers, even. Man that was fun. Feels like one of the last times Daro cared (there's also the BB I guess).
>>288532074>>288532108>>288532126>>288532157>>288532171If only Fei wasn't a fucking moron.
>>288532357It shouldn't make his skull any more durable
>>288533147Karma from his fight with Ohma
>>288532062Fei is displaying some almost Edward levels of mercy, he could just kept pummeling Waka till he dies, but instead he is waiting between each combo to confirm whatever Waka is willing to continue, what a great guy.
>>28853224615-love
I miss KING CANNON Lolong, Rolon is so boring
Does Waka feel like this is a win? He's alive
>>288532275Goodbye last vaguely decent villain Sandro wrote
>>288532275Imagine making a very likeable and exceesingly powerful antagonist and then you pull this shit
>>288532299Raped face
>>288534574Zero % chance he does.
>>288534445Tiger doesn't actually have any techniques or combat skills though. Or rather, all the techniques he uses are techniques he pulls from Shen, because Shen was in the driver's seat their entire life. There doesn't actually seem to be any real major difference between the 'Dragon' and the 'Tiger' all things considered, just minor stuff like tastes.
>>288532323Reminder that Fei doesn't care about any of these people
>>288532323Dick move Agito
>>288532366I nominate my dick
>>288532359Would be a funny charming way for him to die if the first panel were his last words.
>>288532359>last words are "no way fag"He truly was too cool to live
>>288534346>>288532233Fei's flashback convinced him that he had to take on Waka's bearhug with pure power because that is what he convinced himself being the Tiger's Vessel meant. That he couldn't compromise with a 'trick' like using a technique to escape. He obviously could have just used a technique to escape. But Memory Tiger Niko somehow triggered him to go about escaping the bearhug in the worst way possible because Sandrovich needed to be rid of his character already.
>>288532376Nice to see everyone had the same reaction to this page as me kek
>>288532391Fucking kek that's a good mental image
>>288532399Wow this got retconned hard. And I guess the excuse is that everyone just lied to Fei
>>288532246Wakatsuki should have died here. His character is fucking lame.
>>288534520I think that, at that point in time, ohma and fei were already closest to becoming tiger's vessel, so ohma wasn't attacked further by worm associate and be let to do as he pleasesd, with the worm preparing the heart in advance(heh) for any complicationswhen tiger niko mentioned he's got all the data he needed from fei's death, I think he meant the effect and time limit of using advance, most likely something exclusive to the tiger shenand possibly tiger niko planned to betray shen and take it all for himself too, that's why he's in league with luohanshen didn't attempt to kill tiger niko because of his service in conditioning ohma, now the most complete tiger's vessel, but spare no second thought clobbering luohan for betraying him
>>288531588stfu shitsuna
>>288532197And that's why you don't stop to pose on the middle of a fight.
>>288532399I'm still mad at this getting retconned
>>288534648"I" messed up spoiler tag but "whatever"
>>288532275I can't believe it somehow gets even worse after this.
>>288532442Well, this is more foreshadowed than I remember. Props to Sandro I guess?
>>288532323Liu doesn't deserve this.
>>288534648But the Advance/Possessing Spirit was invented by Mukaku and has nothing to do with Shen or the Tiger?
>>288532457I hate this but it's a funny reaction image
>>288532359He's even fun when he's dying. We fucking lost this for fucking Gilbert and fucking Shengus.
>>288532483I can't believe Waka lost
>>288532499Thanks op. I can't be bothered to do all that work
>>288532474Fei realized the tiger's vessel can only be a clone of the leader, not the people who participated in the Gu ritual
>>288532337Alisa clocked in thinking it was just gonna be a normal day at work.
>>288532099>>288532126>>288532171>gets flung off and then knocked out after thinking this>fei then kills himself, protecting himself against a future revenge humiliation ritual by sandro for hurting a kenganvengerFei won the moral victory btw.
>>288532520The Tiger vessel was Shen's idea. The other Niko just copied the concept and put it up as a "prize" for his students
>>288534681you forgot the part when mukaku was still young and being an associate of the worm and long clan (which most likely worked alongside wu clan under shen)he did not invent advance, he simply took their secret technique to rebel against shen and failed miserably, likely because shen himself is the original user of advance
So why did worm only infiltrate purgatory, having a few agents in the Kengan association would have been useful
>>288533518You have it backwards. What makes Fei think he's different from Gaoh is that he knows the techniques. While Gaoh only knows the prototype style.
>>288532204He said one of the top fighters. It could really only mean Gaolang and Agito. Carlos took dibs on Gaolang and Tongueman lured out Agito. I do t think coming out early to fight Rihito or Akoya counts as taking out a top Kengan fighter.
>>288534739>oh boy today is the big tournament! I'm gonna be in front of the biggest crowd so far in my career, I'm gonna make sure to give it my all!
>>288532520Tiger Niko used the terminology of Shen's clone scheme within the Worm as motivation for training his students to want to achieve great things. It was all just a lie from the start, but he never cared if any or all of them died.
>>288534789Akoya is very much a top kengan fighter
>>288531923Love that tiger niko in the bottom panel
>>288534764They tried with the fake Yuzaki, I guess.The actual reason is because that would mean killing off an established Ashura character in order to have them replaced, or to introduce more new characters on the team like Nitoku(also a no starter because that would mean less wank of said established characters).
>>288531933But imagine this page if fei was a hot woman
>>288534164Fei didn't look closely enough at Ohma to realize who he was a clone of until then. To be fair, it is intentional that Ohma and Shen don't look exactly alike. >>288532457Fei really, really should have survived.
>>288534764>he thinks Sandro would ever let one of the wholesome kengan avengers turn evil
>>288534760Mukaku created Advance, the "retcon" was that it went from being something made to tango with the Kure's Removal and was instead Mukaku creating a technique in the hopes of killing Shen if multiple men using it jumped him
all this talks made me "realise" somethingshen took the last name wulong because of wu clan and long clanwu clan know guihan body overclocking, likely an offshoot of tiger shen's original art of advancelong clan know effective assassination tech, likely an offshoot of dragon shen's killing tech
>>288532499Fei deciding to go full retard at the end was dumb. If he was that stupid, he'd have died a lot earlier and not have been able to balance his two techniques.
>>288532598>>288532602Actually it is a really good idea to overclock both. But it is a bad idea to combine it with an easily misinterpretable flashback where you fight to overpower the strongest mutant man on the planet.
>>288534627Fei going from justifiably cocky because he was just that good and competent to a dude who was jealous of Ohma in a blink like that was awfulJust have Fei and Waka knock each other out
>>288534760
>>288534889Him being jealous of ohma before even learning he is clone makes no sense since he clearly is way stronger and can use niko style way better.
>>288534760I think that's forcing the interpretation a little.80% of Wowang came from outside the Worm. And the Advance is stated to be a new technique they came up with just for Shen. I guess you could make an argument about the dragon style clans, but then you could go anywhere with it.The major roadblock with your theory is that we've literally met 'the Tiger'. And he doesn't have any separate techniques from Shen. He explicitly has the same stuff, because they have the same exact memories. And the Tiger and Dragon aren't even supposed to be different people, they were originally the same person. The previous Shen was the dragon and tiger both. Or rather, the previous Shen was just Shen, but then the cloning fucked up and created a split personality and they just started calling each other the Tiger and the Dragon for some reason.I'm also pretty sure that the advance is outdated because of principles anyway, there's literally not much point in increasing brute power when you can magically divert the point of force or whatever, with Shen demonstrating that by knocking people out with gentle slaps.
>>288532102Don't ask me.
>>288533152He had to have a schizo flashback right at the end that 'commanded him' to overpower Wakatsuki from a very disadvantageous position, obviously.
>>288534900God I can't wait. This motherfucker is gonna burn these threads down
>>288534573This is what Lolong was fantasizing while silently sulking during this whole match.
>>288532528He was considered, but his tribe wouldn't let him participate.
>>288533478The thing is, people praised his subversions in Asura... but as it turns out, there aren't that many of them in there.It was just the right amount. You could look at the roster and guess most of the fights just fine, but because he subverted you just enough, you're always left guessing.But then, it seems, he took the wrong lessons from his subversion masterclass that what made the series popular was subverting at any cost (Except making the heroes look bad)
>>288532528Literally no reason given. His CEO just arbitrarily refused to send him, despite being a perfectly reasonable and friendly guy in Ashura. Sandro just used O MY KENGAN POLITICS to force the team he wanted to use for the arc, and Saw wasn't on that list.He should have been one of the fighters who got poached by Purgatory to make that more than a background concept, out of frustration from the association letting Hayami get away with everything, and Idemitsu offering to protect his village or something.
>>288532323I wasn't aware agito was religious
>>288531641This happened in China.Human life is very cheap over there.
>>288534346>overclocking your heart and brainWhat does overclocking your brain even do here? Since it's just combining the two techniques, and Fallen Demon just makes you perceive shit in slow motion, you could just use Possessing Spirit individually for the burst of power.
Why did tuger pretty much give fei the okay to kill himself to prove his worth? I thought he didn't even care about his students?
>>288532541Jesus Christ, I can't believe it was five years ago. What fun we had.
>>288532975IM DA JOKA BABY
>>288534986>It was just the right amount. You could look at the roster and guess most of the fights just fine, but because he subverted you just enough, you're always left guessing.This. To partially quote a certain Maori, "excessive subversion is worse than cliche".The best mysteries or otherwise twist filled stories need to have a balance. There should be enough subversion that you can't be sure about things because it might be an intentional misdirection, or a double bluff.When everything is subversion, you can just safely assume that any very foreshadowed outcome or hyped up character will be subverted or will lose and be right most of the time, it becomes just another type of cliche, and arguably worse because of how it reeks of a smug asshole of a writer who thinks that he's a genius for avoiding traditional story beats like a big antagonist defeating minor characters to establish themselves, even when things that like are actually necessary to make the reader have any faith or investment at all in your plot.
>>288534567>he could just kept pummeling Waka till he diesBut then Waka would win.
>>288535065"we" are still having "fun", just for a completely different "reason"
>>288533739Fei dying should be a win, but Fei also killed someone, which is a loss. Even if the one he killed was himself.The two cancel out and it adds up to a draw.
>>288535103>it becomes just another type of cliche, and arguably worseThe thing is that cliches etc. are the way they are because they're generally considered good writing. (Of course you can still fuck it up) To subvert something means that you also need to make that subversion worth it, or at least on par with the norm.If you look at something like Setsuna vs. Kuroki, no one expected Kuroki to win against the established "rival" but the subversion works because Setsuna doesn't actually need to win to be relevant.But then you have, well, this fight. Again, technically Fei doesn't have to win here, though it'd be a lot harder to justify, maybe he'd realize he overused Divine Demon and either drops out or loses after running out of gas, still leaving him as a very credible threat.But how the fuck does him dying benefit the story? It doesn't, all we got was schizo vagueposting.Even something like Lu Tian is better, at least he's alive and could contribute something in the future, but Fei is just out. Terrible.
Make another thread. It's after"party" time.
>>288532429>>288532442>>288532457>3 pages>0 substantial statements made
>>288535284his death wail is quite impactful in terms of art and emitting hatred, wish he's not dead
>>288532745>Actually abyss tier writingbut what if there were "deeper depths"?
>>288535008>In an alternate timeline, a chunk of Purgatory consists of poached Kengan members>Instead of Capoiera app man, we could have got Saw vs Gaolang
Huh, I was actually liking Fei. He was a fun fucker.And he just dies after all that build up? Against Waka? It would have made more sense and had more hype if he fought Agito.
one of the robed worm is Cyborg Fei, trust
>>288535340>Better money>Better health care>Semi famous>Less risks of permanent injury or straight up deathAnd best of all you can tie it in with Akoya getting a fucking THIRD shot, either make it where they let him back in because they're running low on fighters or have him getting a third chance being the straw that breaks the camel's back for a bunch of Kengan fighters
>>288533478>>288534986The thing about Sandro's "subversions" is that they can get so atrocious that I question if they're even meant to be subversions and they're not just blatant misuse of established tropes.Like Fei has all the qualities of a great rival character but in the end he's used like minor fodder and then kills himself. It's like if Sandro wrote Yu-Gi-Oh he'd have Kaiba blow his brains out in his first arc and that'd be the end of that character's potential.
>>288531630>three students>gave the okay to kill two of them, not even for ass-covering purposes>they were both also kind of meh and weapon users
>>288535253Obviously I think the best outcome is Fei winning to establish himself as a threat, but I think as long as Fei stayed alive, you could even have him lose or draw. If things stayed the same, but he got saved by Hanafusa bullshit or something, then there's still a lot of places his character could go. He's younger and less experienced than Ohma and most other fighters, so the most veteran fighter of all managing to scrape a draw despite how strong he is could at least be acceptable if it was meant to lead to him developing from this and winding up much stronger in the long term.He could have become a grudging ally against the worm and Tiger Niko after realizing he'd been used, or he could have busted out of the medical ward and gone off to do his own thing as a wild card, a rival to Ohma but still firmly against Niko now.The only way I could ever forgive the current events is if it was meant to further make Tiger Niko into an utterly hateable monster who would be the final boss later, but... it would still feel like a waste, and then you have the stupid framing with Agito acting like Fei deserves this, and the stupid crazyface flashback. If that was the case, you'd also have to redo the last chapter a bit and make it more tragic instead of focused on making even more mystery boxes. Have him reply to Medel that he didn't have any family or anything like that, and the closest thing is the people who are already around him, and that now that he thinks about it, he wishes this could have lasted for more than just a couple of years. And of course Niko would actually have to be worthy of said setup.
>>288531933>>288532246>>288532275To this day, Naidan is the only Worm/Tiger agent that exited the story with any respect or grace. Yeah, he had a crazy face moment but it made sense because he was excited to fullfill his retarded mission and also being choked out so he's high on adrenaline. But he actually cared about people and wasn't some cartoon villain to just die pathetically.
Could Fei have beaten Kuroki?
>>288532359>not into menFUCK YOU SANDROFUCK YOU SANDRO
>>288535496Probably.Divine Devil remains the most ridiculous form in Kengan. Wakatsuki and maybe Raian are the only characters that don't get immediately flattened, and Shen probably has his own ways to negate all that power. I don't see Kuroki not having all his bones turned to vapor with a few punches.
>>288535496Unironically Kuroki is a hard-counter.Kuroki would poke a hole in him when Fei threw a strike (like we see against Shen later) and that would disable Fei's Divine Devil.
>>288535496Going by how Fei was portrayed, yes.As written by Sandro, Kuroki would be able to perfectly parry all of Fei's attacks without even being moved an inch. Fei would see the image of a vast AI generated mountain looming in front of him and be shocked at how stable he is. "H-HOW CAN KARATE BE THIS STRONG AND SUGOI?!!!" he would gasp, before the Devil Lance instantly stabbed deep into his chest. "B-BUT HOW, MY FALLEN DEMON COULDN'T REACT!""Hrm... even the greatest technique has flaws.... I simply "timed" my strike for the "gaps" in your awareness by "curving the blow" slightly "outside of your synapses' curvature" " Kuroki would reply, and refuse to elaborate further. "A true martial artist needs only "that much" to win, not flashy techniques".
>>288532969It's kind of strange just how many mass murderers are in this competitionGaohNaidanAkoya NicolasJulius Raian AlanTerashiAgitoLu TianFeiLolongHow the fuck does this "no kill" tournament have 12 fighters will kill counts measured in scores
>>288532414>>288532473
>>288534574canonically this fight ends with no-one happyBoth in-universe and for the readers
>>288535616It is an underground martial arts tournament where participation at the very least guarantees that you're a criminal.
>>288535565>>288535581>>288535605>>288535496Fei would probably lose because Kuroki's defense is his strongest trait. Waka had no chance in this fight. All he had was resolve and his muscular endurance. Fei threw it because, despite being overwhelmingly stronger than the Kengans, his mind was childish. He threw away his life for a fight that had no stakes or pride. He was even fighting BY Purgatory rules, never following up to end the fight. It was pure arrogance.If he couldn't beat Waka before tapping out, he won't beat Kuroki. Fei's mind is weak.
>>288535677To add. I'm Ashura only and a newfag reading these threads. I could be completely wrong in the future, but that's how I see it right now.
>>288535581That's assuming Shen hits as hard as Fei does. Which I guess is possible? Principles and Divine Devil are both pretty stupid.
>>288535751Kuroki's fingies are basically magic knives that he can stab you with even without wind up.
>>288533236The person strong enough to concuss Waka is himselfMuch like how the only person strong enough to strangle Cosmo is himself sadly for Ohma, Kuroki was way more durable than he was powerful
>>2885315592/3 shown here aren't professional fighters ... why the fuck would they care about KvP???
>>288532483GOODNIGHT SWEET PRINCE
>>288532483kekkk bravo sandro
>>288533236It takes two Blast Cores to take out Waka. Thus, Fei was just worth two Blast Cores. (It does seem like until full throttle he was about on par with Waka in power)
>>288534847Wulong isn't his last name, it's ShenSame as Xia Ji and Xia Yan where Xia is their family name
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhwasn't there something with waka that he couldn't just spam blast cores?Like, a broken ankle?
>>288535390Sandro's writing is still unfathomable
>>288533152Huh, I just realized we never got a scene of shark reacting to Julius winning.
>>288535496Yeah. Fei or Eddie would've cleaned up the Kat on any seed with little issue if they took it halfway seriously.
>>288532275>he used the super mode that's supposed to kill you if you use it too hard and self-destructedHonestly, I don't mind.
