Chapter 364: Adam vs Kiozan
>>289739088>However>There was a third dump
>>289739228This must have taken Sandro incredible restraint to not shut this down, I expect the next 10 chapters to look like absolute dogshit as karmic backlash.
Why has Daro suddenly decided that life is worth living again and actually trying with the art?
>>289739316>Sumo, strong?
>>289739349>Note: the size requirement is 5'6"/167cm
>>289739370JuliusBITCHES....
>>289739349>It's a sport where size requirements matters*>*actually no, they changed thatWhy? Why even add this?
>>289739316The initiated
>>289739368so the size requirement is literally just be the average japanese height? i assume this is an ancient rule from when they were shorter
>>289739349Remember to consume your nutrients, kids.
>>289739415yeah, back in the heisei era of 1994
>three dumpsIt's so funny how this is the most memorable part of today's chapter. It has nothing to do with the chapter itself (which really is just dogshit with half of it being pure filler). Once again, the community is here to save the day and make things memorable, even if accidentally.
>>289739228>draft notes: make it lamer and do a front angle
>>289739495>Look at that, it's that worthless amerimutt's only gimmick, god he fucking sucks.Kazzy?
I'm about to take a fucking dump.
>>289739508Is every fight in this fighting manga a filler for you BASTARD Luohan?!
>>289739429I thought that was Raian for a second there
>>289739370>hexes own fighter
Will we get a fourth dump? How about doing an Endless Eight of this shit?Eight dumps!
why are only '''weaker''' characters like Adam or hell, even Kiozan, still allowed to not be just 'le stoic' man?
>>289739641Congratulations adam now you have to bite through the other 7 layers of fat
>>289739641>my mma wont work?>time to bite out this FAT FUCKS jugularholy based
>>289739228KINO.
>>289739641Ah yes, the Jack special
>>289739406I ask that question a lot while reading this manga.
>>289739617I still have hope for Lihito, he just went full stoicface because he felt bad about stomping Sawada
>>289739641Chapter 364: Gif Edition
>>289739228Sumo is...STRONG!
>>289739508>the most memorable part of today's chapter.Yeah, I forgot that the sumo guy slapped FUCK guy in the face. I guess that wasn't an important part of the fight.
>>289739641
>>289739641Adam took the nutrients thing too literally
>Sumo? Strong?
>>289739088>native of Texas >ice hockey
>>289739712HOWEVER....there was a FOURTH dump!
>>289739680>"I'd even show my ass if it meant I can beat sumo"
>>289739712I really thought it was going to be a gif cycling through each page in the chapter
>>289739617Adam has somehow escaped the Omega curse where characters are reduced to only their most recognizable components like Agito and his dragon shot.I thought it was over in early Omega when all he did was show up in the background and say FUCK but whenever he has real focus he maintains his Ashura attitude with moderate character development.
>>289739641So, if Rihito the Ripper used his "Razor Finger" and "bit" into the neck... that's totally legal in modern "don't kill" Kengan Association, right?
>>289739305He loves sumo
>>289739176A mirror match of vulgarity
>>289739406The "current year" of kengan omega is 2023
>>289739751
>>289739785Japanese people don't acknowledge football as a valid sport
>>289739978Still weird, it's like bragging how boxing has roots in pugilism and it was so super brutal and shit but then immediately explain all the rules and regulations that were applied to it.
>>289739415Sumo has undergone a considerable sizecreep since the 80s. Everyone nowadays is much bigger, so fights are a bit fiercer and injuries occur more often.Damnit Onosato you fat cunt get surgery on that shoulder already the goddamn caveman has done it and outscored you!
>>289739228good page
>>289739641Goudou is strong
>>289739641This doesn’t really fit Adam but it’s so insane I don’t mind. I feel like we haven’t seen a bite in a long time.
>>289739370Juliusissies? You okay?
>>289739088I missed the chapter 2 weeks ago, did cosmo win?
>>289739785This is critical to his fighting style, you can actually fight in Hockey and he's got the muscle structure to throw full power shots on ice
>>289740401Yes.
>>289739370Sumo is stronger than drugs, confirmed
>>289739495>Adam’s one and only strengthDudlers…
>>289739406So that my GOAT Takanoyama could competehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uUHG6jUaRE
>>289740459Uhhhh isn't that frowned upon?
>>289740535If you're a bitch
>>289739305I think it was implied in the Ashura's extras that Daro loves Sumo and Wrestling
>>289739169What's the origin of this meme again?
>>289740535its legal and its not something you'd ever get in trouble for, it's just considered 'cheap'if you were in the running for a yokozuna promotion (which is technically non-merit based and decided by an outside council) then you wouldn't want to do it, otherwise who cares
>>289740627What do they promote? Sumo? Is it some kind of festival?
>>289740653Some kind of "party", maybe?
>>289740653the main organization is the Japan Sumo Association and they hold 15 day tournaments every two months; it's theoretically all a shinto ritual (with priests and exorcism and purification included) but its mostly for its own sakethey also go on regional tours for festivals and the like but those aren't recorded or taken very seriouslyif you were referring to "yokozuna promotion", yokozuna is the highest rank and is technically decided by the 'character' of the individual wrestler, but usually it means 'if you're the second highest rank and win two tournaments in a row you'll get the spot'
>>289739785Hey, there's the Dallas Stars. Can't remember if they were any good or not, but they exist.
>>289740626Im guessing Kaolang vs Agito 2>However >There was a second dragon shot
>>289739807huh? It is! Just wait a bit while it is open and the second page will come, then the third and so on. I made it slow so you can read without issue.
>character who isn't Akoya pulls off a bite successfullycolor me subverted. time to see if Sandro respects GOUDOU or if every peanut gallery character gets mad at the gaijin and Takeru flings him to the moon.
>>289740626Real Championship Rolon vs Agito
>>289740835>he can't sense the "however" comingYou are still green
It's interesting that, like an inverse Cosmo, Adam has so strongly stuck to his newly acquired grappling skills rather than primarily striking. It actually feels like the guy cares about MMA and has confidence in a set of skills he's only really trained for a few years now. Five years is a decent amount of grappling experience, but it doesn't hold a candle to some of the monsters who trained it since childhood, so Adam making it his opening gameplan is interesting. In a way, it feels like it makes more sense than Cosmo who spends so much time striking when he has superb technical grappling skills. Adam enriching his gameplan and making use of his unique balance to compliment a mixed strike/grapple game makes more sense to me than Cosmo trying to primarily settle fights with his striking despite not having the size or power for it against a lot of heavier guys.
>>289740535The guy can sumo "normally" too.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ux8xSKG7xE
>>289739495You've changed, Kazzy
Sumo is......fast?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNwJ0bjDQKE
>>289739370Wakakeks, Juliusissies, Raianclowns, Haruofats...
>>289741041Did they even see Haruo have that schizo breakdown? He definitely would have the best specs if we're talking about being all rounders.
>>289740984Reminder that at the start of this arc he was expecting bullshit
>>289740459Takanoyama is what got me into sumo God bless this man.
>>289740984Kazzy is desensitized after all the high level exchanges he saw at the RCT. He's more willing to shit on the low tiers now.
>>289741025Sort of? They basically train to be like NFL linebackers, the guys whos job is to slam into the other guy as hard possible.
I get it, I get it. Sumo is strong. Strong men are strong... but which one is the strongest?
>>289739548Adam culo
>>289741309The GRAND one.
>>289740653Promotion to the rank of Yokozuna, the sport's highest rank. Generally speaking the requirements are two basho wins in a row (those 15 day tournaments "I" mentioned, but being runnerup sometimes counts if the wrestler was on a good streak that basho) while in the rank of Oozeki, the sport's 2nd highest rank (which itself requires 33 wins while in either Sekiwake or Komusubi ranks). This basho Kirishima was on a yokozuna run but he got KWAB'd last day by white boy with motion.Anyway watch this to learn more of the sport, it's beautiful (and strong) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQSEW1NFRwo&pp=ygUOc3VtbyB0cmFkaXRpb24%3D
Sumo is so good it gave Daro back his will to live for one week.
>>289739617they haven't "arrived" yet
Could Julius beat Kiozan?
>Adam as the underdog>literally "didn't hurt lol">cliffhanger...yeah it's over. We had a good run Kiozanbros.
>>289741339Does it still have corruption issue for the lower rankings?
>>289739406Because sumo wrestler numbers are way down. Very little financial success unless you make it to at least division 2 and stay there and even then you're most likely going to have a short career as a sumo wrestler. Takayasu is 36 in division 1 and is considered old there. Simply put there is very low recruitment in sumo at the moment and they will literally take any Japanese person who wants to give it a go.
the subversion is that after he healed up, kiozan will have the word "fuck" imprinted on his neck now from the bite, thanks to adam's teeth
>>289739123Thats not a real accomplishment
>>289741828Adam is gonna impress Kiozan and have him acknowledge his "street fighter pride" before getting low diffed>This defeat will only make Adam stronger
>>289739641Jack is gonna lose this. All of my favorites just keep eating shit.
>>289739305Daro just wants to draw fun matchups and booba but Sandro keeps blocking him with his dogshit plot and anti-fun mechanics like Principles.
>>289741936It'd genuinely be kino if they do this but Sandro won't and frankly won't make sense.
>>289739370Gilbertsissies...
>>289739370bro wouldn't make any "top 5 strongest Kengan bods" lists, what the fuck is this guy talking about?
>>289739712Cool.
>>289739641Adam is getting 'however'd' next chapter, isn't he?
>>289741978>You were awesome, Adam-san. Top 5 yankee street fighter i've ever faced for sure>not even 2 minutes after he starts going away, he meets The Connector face to face>Kiozan mutters Fuck.....
>>289739641Even if Kiozan wins here, he'd have to surrender his watch to someone as he won't be able to run around bleeding all over the forest
>>289742259Shen's probably still doing nothing and complaining about the rules.
>>289742102I mean what does that list even look like?>Julius>Waka>Haruo>Raian>???The top 3 are pretty obvious but Kiozan is at least in question for competing with Raian in raw power. I struggle to think Raian could check his top speed and Kiozan's actual muscular power is insane given his ability to push back Sekibayashi as well as he did. Jurota and Akoya are also decent contenders as huge guys with absurd strength, but they strike me as more technically-inclined than Kiozan who does a lot of what he does with raw physicality and finesse.
>>289742298Haruo is not above Raian, Haruo's putting his own knees at risk whenever he moves. It's Julius, Waka, Raian, and then 4 and 5 are whichever Kure/Wu suck the least currently
>>289742343>Haruo is not above Raian, Haruo's putting his own knees at risk whenever he moves>Anons already forgetting he slimmed down and got brain damageBros...
Hakuho vs. Karelin. Who wins?
>>289742298>>289742343You guys are forgetting Agito and his insane specs. The guy is massive and throws knockout blows casually at all ranges.
>>289742007Gilbert isnt a kenganvenger his "specs" are still safe for "now"
>>289742298Julius, Waka, Haruo, Raian, Agito
>>289742259>Kiozan does his full power sumo body slam>Shen stops him with a single finger because it turns out if you understand the principles of movement you can stop a tank by pressing on the right point
>>289739370>Adam is such a shitter that all those years of training with Cosmo and a FotS character meant the best he could do was get to the final 8 in a tournament Good to know he's just a less arrogant version of his old self with a few new tricks and nothing morePutting it all on the Kiozan coin
>>289739228>>289739257Sumo...... Is Strong!
>>289742343Raian is highly overrated. Removal makes him insane in short bursts, but his actual physical specs aren't as high as the rest of the list outside of that. He's strong, fast, and durable, but even Haruo at his worst had comparably insane feats of physicality back in the KAT. Raian also loses out on size to most of these guys, giving him shorter reach and making him more dependent on timing.
>>289742392This list probably the most correct. Thinking about how Kiozan compares to them all in physicality, he compares well in multiple aspects. He's easily faster than all of them in short bursts, he's got Waka-like durability with how he could take so much of Seki's shit and a Demonsbane, his balance makes him hard to throw off, he made Seki give ground with his muscular power, and he's huge yet has surprising maneuverability outside of his charge what with the finessse of his kicks. The area he primarily lacks in is technical skill, which isn't really what's in question here. He loses in specific ways to some of those guys, but I can see how Kiozan could physically be described as the full package. The thing that really puts him in the running is Raging Vigor though. It's such an undeniably powerful and simple move.
>>289742542>timing
TIMING
>>289742861Wakatsuki is explicitly defined as 52x stronger.Not "twice" as strong.Fifty-two times stonger.Dozens. Multiple dozens.52.
>>289743101What are you on about?
>>289743101>52 times strongerI don't think he is going to deadlift 8 tons.
>>289743145What are you talking about?
>>289743199Nothing in my post had anything to do with Waka's muscle density.
>>289739228Damn that's good shit
>>289739751>>289740033I laughed
>>289742298Akoya is outside the rating parallel to all top 3.
>>289742005>That's the best part
>>289743427Akoya seems way more reliant on technique to say he outright rivals the real bruisers, but then we see him do crazy shit like react to gunshots, crush faces with his bare hands, and brain a man with a flashlight. His reaction speed is also legitimately one of the best physical attributes any fighter has in the whole manga.
Alright "me", out of all dogshit fights in Omega, which one is actually the worst? Jurota vs Meguro?
>>289739305You know how suicidal people often seem pretty happy in the days leading up to their deaths?
>>289743531Collectively Five Fights at Ohma's. Narratively, Eddie versus everyone.Technically, Gaolang versus Justin or Gaolang versus Jurota. Spiritually, Raian versus Willem and Sean.
>>289743531>Jurota vs Meguro?Not even fucking close.Anything from RCT is marginally worse. But I'd say Raian vs Sean and Willem is the worst
>>289739429Temu crazy Raian face.
>>289743531In a vacuum, Gaolang vs Justin.As a complete narrative package, it's gotta be Setsuna vs Tiger Niko. I think it's a far worse villain assassination than Eddie vs Raian.
who beat kiozan in omega again? was it ohms?
>>289739429>i am determined>i won't back down!>>289739457>proceeds to facetankIs determination only good for facetanking? Can no one in this manga use determination to DODGE or ATTACK.It'd be one thing if he took the attack on purpose to launch his own counter, but he just took the blow for no reason after hyping himself up.
>>289743635Have you forgotten Meguro's invincibility chest that let him take no damage from face first throws? Jurota not trying to ring out and then basically losing because he got tired redecorating ring using Meguro's invincible face?
>>289739548Don't do it! Please don't rape the yankee!
I know it's a Japanese series and it's fantasy but I can never take sumo seriously in martial arts manga.
>>289743749Yes.
>>289739641Man, imagine Adam vs #4.
>>289743755It's still somehow less offensive than basically any of the other fights listed. That fight took Masaki's gimmick to the extreme, but there was a form of logic to the fight. It was consistent, but the issue is that Masaki ate way too many throws before executing his plan. Jurota being particular about how he wins can at least he chalked up to his desire to prove his supremacy in a specific way. A lot of these other fights are outright offensive and ruined the integrity of the manga itself.
>>289743531Gilbert vs. Julius. Basically just more humiliation for a character that's already embarrassing enough. Also just a weak fight chore wise and then you get some hypocrisy shit right in the middle.
>>289743531Bad art, bad choreography, retarded supermove spam. This fight has it all. There has yet to be a fight that's worse than Agito vs Gaolang II
>>289743531i'm forgetting anything post purgatory super fast, there probably were loads of terrible fights but i don't remember them
>>289739370Juliusbros...
>>289739641JACKBROS
Have we seen a single actual group fight in this battle royal?
>>289744015No, the only time it was even baited was Sandro titling a chapter a Three Way. Then, they just ignored each other and fought 1v1 while the other sat in a cuck chair waiting for his own fight to come around.
>>289743531Rolon vs Ramon or >>289743635Jurota vs Masaki isn't even the worst KvP fight
>>289744015My fucking hero and his side-kick vs roid-rage Haruo
>>289743749YeahKiozan was awesome
>>289743749>ohmsStop posting here, Fusui
>>289739228Nah that cant be real.How did sandro not shut it down?
>>289744015Two worms getting nodiffed by Haruo
This fight doesn't even seem like it will be retarded in a fun way, we are just going to get some more "sumo is strong". Just get to carlos vs hatsumi already since I know that will be hilariously retarded.
It's a fight I can't get too mad about because both of these low tier guys have been working their butts off to keep up. The worst you can say is that Kiozan has a bit of the magical Sumo on his side but compared to everything else we have seen that is child's play.
>>289743777You are uninitiated
>>289743101Is that Mukaku on the bottom left?
>>289739641>Sumo is strong? yes, but goudou is stronger
>>289744373Daro typed in "strong old man in the kengan art style" and thats what he got.
>>289744373That's Karo Yoshinari after cutting
>>289742204The blood spurt will turn out to be from Adam
>>289742369Karelin. The man is a freak of nature.
>american>blonde>strong core muscles>bites>has shown his asshole to other menAdam was our Jack all along...
>>289743101But wait!
>>289743101>>289744706nerfed...
If kiozan has been "infected" since he has fought ohma and has the best "specs" does that mean he is the strongest?
Are you still enjoying Kengan?
>>289744825Im only here for the "nutrients"
>>289744825its alright
>>289744825I'm enjoying Kengan threads.
>>289743522Akoya is in that camp of being fucking crazy strong but it's never treated as his main selling point.Same with Muteba where he's tanking gouges and getting slammed on hard concrete but he's getting back up like it's nothing but minor setbacks he's already accounted forThey're superhuman freaks but it's never outright stated
>jobber syndrome
>>289739495>one and only strengthdude's a confirmed jobber
>>289744691Jack is Canadian though
>>289745317I mean, technically speaking...
>>289743101Denser, doesn't necessarily linearly translate to 52x stronger
>>289742369Prime Karelin could throw Toa and Julius at the same time.
>>289744772I mean even the original image only talks about muscle density, which isn't a 1:1 measure of strength in real life. They strongly correlate, there are diminishing returns based on anatomy.
>Japanese Fighters are honorable Super Warriors!>Foreign Fighters are Cowardly Dirty Devils!
>>289745511Adam will lose but let's hope for a good fight
>>289745511Ohma is technically Chinese tho
>>289745728Chinese, Italian, Thai or Jamaican
Jouji was right about biting
>>289742343>Haruo is not above RaianBased on? Just because Haruo had a weight problem doesn't mean he can't be stronger than Raian. He was bigger than Julius and could jump many times his own height with his legs and I've never seen Raian do anything like that.
>>289743101>Wakatsuki is explicitly defined as 52x stronger.Nope. 52x muscle density is not 52x stronger. The fact he isn't one-tapping everyone is proof of that and it's reiterated later.
>>289739655Fat is Flavor
>>289740835>Adam using his however this soonIts over for him
>>289745383But can he throow Jurota?
We are now the last "thread"
>>289746440"However" the "daily" will "arrive" soon.
>during the berserker bowl adam suddenly developed some code about how hockey players don’t attack once their opponent is down just so the plot could justify ryuki winning>but apparently hockey players just fucking bite their opponent’s jugular Sandro literally just adds and removes traits to characters at will.
>>289745511All things considered the kenganvengers are pretty diverse, though most of them are different types of Asian>Kaolan: Thai>Ohma and Ryuki: Chinese raised in Japanese Detroit>Agito: Russian? Mongolian? Almost certainly not Japanese>Rolon: Filipino>Julius: German>Liu: Chinese>Haruo: Nepaleseetc
>>289746810Pretty sure Agito is just some brand of Chinese. I don't think Tiger put non Asians in a Gu Ritual.
>>289746440This is the only thread we need.
>>289746853He was found in a Russian sewer though wasn't he?
>>289746941Somewhere near the border
>>289746985So wouldn't he likely be Mongolian or Siberian?
>>289746853>>289746941The sewer he was in was probably in Inner Mongolia so he'd technically be chinese though mongolian through ethnicity.
>>289740626You also have this gem
>>289744445That's exactly what I was thinking.
>>289747162I still enjoy it every time
>>289747162This fight is genuinely more interesting than their RCH match.

>>289750565>He's just talking shit and trying to look toughThat's giving Sandro too much credit, it's 100% superficial damage. Characters don't lie about that stuff anymore.
>>289750565I think he's referring to how in Asura characters would blackout or get disoriented all the time from getting hit in the head, even if it was only for a few seconds. But since Omega it's been way more common for characters to just openly face tank stuff and just get bloodied up a bit. They'll talk about how much damage it did but it always comes off as really superficial since they keep fighting on as if nothing happened.
>>289739286That's a shot you can fap to
>>289739641Nutrients......
>>289750621>>289750664But then how is that any less artificial than it was in Asura? Like all the hits Ohma took from Raian and Wakatsuki? Or any other character for that matter.
>>289739641Adam's learnt from the best.
>>289739641"It" is "time" to "feast"
>>289745317As a hockey player, Adam is an honorary Canadian
>>289744691You forgot they're both weak jobbers too
>>289750480It's a bit more preferable than "wow that strike would have crushed every organs in my body and flung me to the sun IF IT LANDED LMAO"
>>289747997>We'll finally get off the island on approximately July 2029.All of this is assuming Sandro won't go on his usual tangents and digressions to pad things further. Expect to stay in the island until 2030 or 2031. We're here forever.
>>289751671>OhmaIndestrucible has and always will be complete bullshit. But even in those cases Ohma was still actively defending and not just letting himself get hit while he tries to get the timing right or find an opening.There were still cases in Asura where a character would intentionally leave themselves exposed or let themselves take a hit so they could deliver a counter or draw the opponent in, but in Omega it's done to an almost comical effect which is why it gets meme'd about so much. Hell even a few chapters ago Toa's entire strategy against Jurota was to let himself get thrown around like a ragdoll all for one moment that didn't even pan out.
When this series started I was younger than Koga and Ryuki, now I'm significantly older and the story still hasn't really progressed and my heroes are still put in a lower narrative strength totem pole than mid-high tier KATfagsFucked up. It's like the fighting shounen equivalent of those anime women calling themselves hags at 25
>>289753741Koga should be about 24 now, right?
>>289753741>it's been seven years since Omega began
>>289750081It was 唯一不二 so yesStill funny though
>adam vs. cosmo>haha I'm a rude street brawler that doesn't give a fuck about attacking my opponent when they're down even if there's a huge size difference!>adam vs. ryuki>uhhh yeah, adam would never attack an opponent that's on the ground. he's a hockey player and in hockey once the other guy hits the ground it's over>adam vs. kiozan>let me show you my pride as a street fighter and just bite out your jugular!
>>289750081>>289753943>translator doesn't want to translate
>>289754339Cosmo just put the fear of twinks in him
>>289754471seems like nobody involved in kengan actually wants to do their job
>>289739680Dude if Adam gets even a fraction of the glow-up Jack got I will praise Sandro forever.
>>289739316I hate when fighting manga start off by humbling a professional athelete and then add professional athelte fighters and wank them later on.
>>289754710It's because the manga get popular enough that the mangaka become celebrities and get to meet real professional athletes and become friends with them.
How the FUCK can Texas support a hockey team
>>289755212With the ACTeams from Florida have won more stanley cups than Canada this century by the way
>>289752486
>>289755430It was a different time.
>>289755430
>>289739228interesting to see in the drafts if this is a never before seen case of daro getting away with a good idea he sketched or if this is wholly ai made
>>289739457>>289739495>felt the slightest smidgeon of hype with this sequence until kazzy came in with the passive aggressive backhanded compliment
>>289753774Yeah he should be in that range. Ohma is like 30+ at this point
>>289739228The foot looks heavily AI
>>289756091It's meant to look like a tree with roots
>>289756153I know, the toes look off
>>289739403>>289739495>>289739548
>>289740724>The Stars were founded during the 1967 NHL expansion as the Minnesota North Stars, based in Bloomington, Minnesota. Before the 1978–79 NHL season, the team merged with the Cleveland Barons after the league granted them permission due to each team's respective financial struggles. The franchise relocated to Dallas for the 1993–94 NHL season and was renamed the Dallas Stars.But they are a solid team
>>289754471There was a time when I cared about Omega enough to be critical of HNG. But I don't even care anymore. HNG can do whatever the fuck they want with this manga.
>>289739548Man so hyped up, his scar healed up
Why did Adam block the slap with his face? Is he becoming a "timer"?
>>289757252Sandro wanted him to look tough but yeah there was actually no reason for him to take that. I guess he was just taunting Kiozan to get him riled up but there was no way to know he’d go in for a throw after.
Someone like Silva would be more up Adam's alley. It would actually be a high level exchange on even level.
>>289755430Gensai is legit kinda frauding hard for letting himself get hit even if it's just to flex with this martial arts master gimmick. For all he knows in the kenganverse, Rihito has a special poison in his nails that kills you in 0.1 seconds
>>289757629He should have payed the price for letting Rihito land a razors edge. A deep wound that would affect him for the rest of the matches.
>>289739641the bite of 83.kengan edition
I went through the whole thread and did I miss the mayo is for fags page or nobody posted it yet?
>>289739641Martial...arts?
>>289757629>>289757657Gensai easily countering his opponent's because he's been around for so long and is familiar with their styles/knew their masters only to take a critical hit from a literal who like Rihito actually would have been pretty cool to show that even an expert on his level can still let it go to his head.
>>289739641>>289751806This is why Kengan readers owe themselves to keep up with Baki too. Imagine missing all this intertextuality.
>>289758397I may have brain damage but I still have standards
>>289758427I don't follow. If you had standards you would clearly identify Baki as a higher quality manga than the perpetual letdown that is Omega.
>>289747997Don't forget when Hayami's ghost tries to derail the event again. It'll last 6 months this time.
>>289758427>>289758535Both are bad.
>>289740835>>289742204Next chapter will be:>A-A BITING ATTACK?!?!?!!>W-WAIT A SECOND...>Huh? My bite can't penetrate his muscles!>A Sumo's neck muscles are thicker than any normal humans.>Blood splatter was actually Kiozan bitch slapping Adam into the ground>In the end, what made the difference was "experience"Or something to that effect.
>>289755802The drafts were posted in the previous thread after the chapter itself was dumped two times.
>>289758772I mean yeah. No way Sandro is going to go through with Adam actually ripping his throat out. At best it will throw Kiozan off long enough for Adam to run or get a proper follow-up in.Still up in the air who actually wins this. This whole chapter was jerking sumo and Kiozan off and acknowledging that Adam is outclassed, which would be the perfect time for a subversion. But Sandro has been playing things pretty straight for a while now.
>>289758397Or you could just not bring up Baki every 5 minutes in a Kengan thread.
>>289756091>>289756219It's a stylistic choice
>>289758817i was asleep during the previous dumps and the internet was designed specifically to cater to me
>>289758535Baki jumped the shark as badly as Omega did when it just kinda forgot Baki had his mom killed by Yujiro.
>>289758907Adam took a bite out of a sumo. This is amusing because another manga, which one or both creators of Kengan are likely familiar with, recently had a whole arc about taking bites out of a sumo. You don't deserve to be protected from this knowledge no matter how autistic you are
>>289759169That's cool bro. What about all the other times in the last 7 years that Baki has been brought up incessantly? Or is everything that's been happening in Omega just that close to what recently happened in Baki? Constantly?
>>289759169You are the autistic one with how you can't control your Baki obsession.
>>289757937It would make his line >"I'm still green" be even stronger at the end of the day
I'm guessing this is bait for the Sandrobitch schizo, but no, you are not in fact going to police people to stop bringing up another series when the audience venn diagram of the major martial arts related series' on here is basically a circle.
>>289761628Are you going to police his policing
>>289739495>THIS IS ADAM'S ONE AND ONLY STRENGTHI'm fucking dying
>>289759229Because it's the other long-running schizo martial arts manga where 300 pound freaks explain why getting hit in the balls is actually a secret technique from the Ming dynasty. Of course people are going to compare them. You might as well ask why people bring up Dragon Ball in a battle shonen thread.
>>289762179Comparison is the thief of joy and lord knows there is a severe lack of joy here to begin with.
>>289761628Especially given they drop on the same damn day lmao
I just don't care about the weekly Yujiro wank
>>289764006It's been exceptionally bad recently it's usually not like this
>>289764006You are now reminded that pretty much the last proper "fight" was Katou doubting Baki of all people and then getting toyed.The story's over really but I do wish other characters get a spotlight instead.
>>289764006It's been especially bullshit since the Father-Son fight.
>>289740038Eyeshield 21 says otherwise.
>>289746777Pretty sure it's not honor for hockey players, just the rules of hockey
>>289739088>boss burger
>>289739641typical american playing dirty
>>289769225I thought he was canadian since he plays Hockey?
>>289772156As if Canadians cannot get down and dirty when it matters
>>289755430>no form>he just thrust his arm out while standing fully upright>doesn't even have his legs staggered or farther apart for more solid footing>other arm is not counter balancing or generating more momentum, just limply hanging at his sideWhy the fuck is it that the better you get at martial arts, the less martial arts you do? At least with blurry streaks I can imagine they're just moving really fast and still doing martial arts.This is just the fake martial arts where they have their students whenever their master waves their arm.
>>289757937>actually would have been pretty cool to show that even an expert on his level can still let it go to his head.This works only with the hindsight we have of how strong Beard is. If this were to happen the reader's impression of him would plummet.
I want Adam to win. Yes Kiozan may be the objectively superior combatant but Adam of all characters getting to "scale the wall" would be nice. I want him to put all that grinding to use. It's natural to root for the underdog isn't it? I rooted for Justin against Gaolang.
>>289772993Same actually. Adam got a lot stronger so it wouldn't be too crazy if he managed.
>>289773014Adam could have demolished Ryuki if he really wanted, we all know "that" scene was pure plot armour bullshit for Ryuki's sake.
>>289773037Yeah unironically, saying Adam only "got to top 8 of Berserker Bowl" is underplaying his achievement. I guess he had a fair shot against Koga too.
>>289772993Did Kiozan lose against Ohma in that random fight they had before the Fortnite tournament? I can't remember the conclusion of it, just that they fought. If he lost that one, then Adam's fucked unfortunately.
>>289773157Yes, Kiozan lost to Ohma. He even took a demonsbane. Adam is up against a walking mountain, but I still want him to win.
>>289773243The thing about mountains is that they can be scaled
I was cheering for Hayabusa (Falcon) but he lost to FUCKING GILBERT so I am sleeping until Saw does something cool
>>289772484>Why the fuck is it that the better you get at martial arts, the less martial arts you do?Same reason the better at your job you get, the less working you actually have to do.
>>289773638He only lost to Gilbert off screen. Don't count that it may be retconned that Gilbert might have cheap shotted him later.
>>289773677I see Daro is a grandmaster
The "issue" has been "fixed"....
These fights are going to be INSANE
>>289739088Does the mangaka realize he is making Americans look good with Adam Dudley? He is crude son of a bitch that does not give a fuck!
>>289774039>spic thumbnails x Kengan OmegaDear god...
>>289773677And depending on who the manager on duty is you're practically on break for most of your shift
>>289774039Qrd?
>>289774157He has more balls than 2026 America as a whole
>>289772484>>289773677Terrible analogies. While yes, mastering something mean that you can cut out the chaff and what's unnecessary, it doesn't mean you can skip the fundamentals.
Dailyanon was too strong
"I" am the only "dailyanon" that "we" need.

What a waste. I always knew he was the weakest of the storytimers...

>>289775708You wa shock!
I love these retarded thumbnails.
>>289775731This daily's OP is an individual that does nothing but start new dailies, continue ongoing dailies, and walk his "dog" out."It" is a very simple and twisted creature of unknown measure"."
>>289773157Kiozan did better against Ohma than Rolon did. He was just plowing through everything Ohma threw at him, including Demonsbane, until Ohma got him in a chokehold. Even then it was implied he could have gotten out by crushing Ohma by falling on his back like what Akoya did to Cosmo, but Kiozan didn’t want to “disgrace” sumo by allowing himself to fall. So basically Ohma got saved by plot.I can’t remember if this was post Principle and Five Fights Ohma though. Either way it was a pretty good showing and showcased that Kiozan was high up there even though he doesn’t get much screen time.
Every Kenganvenger is a Rikishi...

>>289739088you'd think this guy would be called the Icy Emperor
>>289739415>so the size requirement is literally just be the average japanese height?Since 2002 (it used to be 173 cm, 75 kg), although this requirement has become no more than a formality at this point. The physical exam mentioned in >>289739349 is so easy that I believe all anons ITT could do it. >i assume this is an ancient rule from when they were shorterThe height requirements are more of a product of when recruitment numbers were high so the sumo association felt that it was okay to filter the smaller guys from their sport. Of course, now that recruitment numbers are reaching historical lows, they are steadily loosening these requirements.As an aside, there are a bunch of funny stories involving recruits who were barely under the height requirements doing literally anything to squeeze out a few centimeters of height. One of the most famous examples is when a recruit had silicone surgically injected into his head to get to 174 cm in 1990; he was accepted mostly because he was a proven wrestler in collegiate amateur sumo, but the silicone injection strat got banned in 1994. He ended up having quite a successful career and had a lot of highlight matches (such as vidrel) but ultimately limited by the sheer size disadvantage he had to overcome since he was about 20 cm shorter and 60 kg lighter than the average top division wrestler.
>>289780822Why is Himuro called that again?

>>289780479It's more likely
>>289781547if you are not biting in ice hockey you are half assing it
Kiozan is top 5 most likely to say the n word for sure
>>289782988Who are the others?1. Louhan2.Raian 3. Kiozan4. ???5. ???
>>289781489>legendhes only on par with the legends
>>289783136Rin would say it
>>289783136Luohan would never. Wulong would blame him for saying it when Luohan never did. Raian is absolutely number 1 though. Adam looks like he might slip up if things get heated enough.Justin gets a pass obviously. Maybe Sawada?
>>289780978Nothing beats some good ol' manlet sumo
>>289784739Justin also gave Okubo and Kim a pass
>>289781261He serves 'em on the rocks
>>289785011Yeah but I don't think either of them would ever use it.
>>289780978Now that i look at how skimpy their clothing is, it makes me wonder if wardrobe malfunctions happen often in this sport. They would become completely naked in front of dozens of people with one small rip and considering that +100kg guys are constantly tugging at it, id be surprised if it always held on. I feel like sumo wouldnt be in decline if the clothing was a bit more dignified than a glorified thong, no idea how that was ever popular
>>289785100Superior Japanese textile folded over 1000 times
>>289783136Marvelous Seki
>>289782988You were awesome Kiozen, top 5 n bombs for sure
>>289783136Raian would spam it against Justin but only specifically because he's an edgy faggot and knows it would make him mad. It'd have no actual racism behind it.
>>289783136Julius definitely says it
Good morning "me"
Hmm, my coffee today is weak. I bet that bastard Luohan is behind this...
>>289786628When you think about it, the coffee pot is a "gu ritual" in its own right.
>>289786661But that ritual is Chinese. Chine- oh actually wait. My bad other "me" I forgot coffee is now a trend in China so yes that could technically be a beveraged "gu ritual"
Fuck. I didn't eat enough food with my morning tea. I think I got tea sickness. That fucking faggot cucksucking dickcheese salesmen Luohan did this to me!
>>289781547tbf, the Berserker Bowl was a straight up tournament, while this is just a batshit Battle Royale with rules being made up on the fly and half the fighters being brainwashed lunaticsThe bite fits
Your favorite Chinese food?
>>289783136All of this >>289784739>>289785442Shen might say it, but the properties of the Sandroverse would warp reality around him and cause any black people within earshot to tell him "you aight Connector boy" and give him a pass for being so chill and wholesome, then join him in beating Luohan for glancing at them the wrong way. Xia Ji would say it.Hiraku definitely wanted to say it, but may have thought it wouldn't be beautiful to.
>>289744825Ill leave it open to interpretation
>>289785100>Now that i look at how skimpy their clothing is, it makes me wonder if wardrobe malfunctions happen often in this sport. They're very rare since the belts are tightened until the inner parts fit snugly around the wrestlers' waists and genitals so they don't easily unravel, among other reasons such as the average match being very short, that wrestlers typically fight only once on a given day, and that the gyoji (referee) can stop a match at any time to tighten a loose belt. >They would become completely naked in front of dozens of people with one small ripAs >>289785190 said. They're also very thick and large belts even if they're made out of high-grade silk (or cotton if you're a lower division wrestler).>I feel like sumo wouldnt be in decline if the clothing was a bit more dignified than a glorified thong, no idea how that was ever popularLong ago, in a faraway kingdom, there was a sport that resembled sumo... But seriously, the mawashi survived Meiji-era westernization because sumo was given state legitimacy from the Emperor himself at the time, and nobody has seriously attempted to replace the mawashi because A. nothing better has challenged it, and B. tradition. >>289761699Why was this mook even a gorilla-man hybrid? What was Daro thinking?
>>289788853I wish modern Sumo was cool like this instead of two fatties slapping each other>You don't even watch sumoCorrect, and I won't.
>>289788922Nigga's never seen Ura fight in his whole life
Whoever wins, I want them to go far. If Kiozan wins, I don't want him to lose to no fucking Julius.
>>289789455Julius is not winning another fight after that stunt
>>289783136Louhan only said it in the draft
>>289789536That's what people thought as well when he fought Gilbert and Sandro decided to hand him another humiliation ritual.
>>289788853>Why was this mook even a gorilla-man hybrid? What was Daro thinking?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUK5Gs1lSVM
>>289785067Okubo would say it once and then spend months touring talk shows trying to explain the situation.
>>289789536Julius was said to have "scaled the wall" against Agito but he objectively did not. He did nothing different, he didn't gain power, he did the same thing as before except worse. The only way for Julius to "scale the wall" is to pack on more pounds. He needs to start bulking mid-fortnite tournament.
>>289781261He was the strongest out of all the bookstore fighters. Not a king but an emperor.>>289789674He could get bone lengthening surgery to become taller than Gilchan
>>289789674Problem with a guy like Julius is you can only grow so big before the only way to scale walls is technique It doesn't get more pure jobber than Julius
>>289789799He is still smaller and calmer than Broly
I claim this dying thread. Go away, all of you!
>>289789674He scaled the wall, and therefore he's stronger.It's that simple.
No dump today? Are we still in the "premonition?"
>>289793982daily dump is usually 2 to 4 hours from now
>>289788853The mawashi itself looks fine to me but it looks like you should be able to wear atleast skin tight shorts underneath it. People would still be able to look at huge half naked men slamming into eachother but atleast their butt wont be sticking out. Too bad the emperor was too strong (which was way he died)
>>289797205>not wanting the butts sticking outWeak.>skin tight shorts underneath itThis would still give another place to hold, skin tight does not mean it becomes one with your skin.
>>289786815>tea sicknessDidn't know about this. Thanks. Black tea is my main drink.
>>289797926You should, it happens when you drink tea instead of coffee like real men.
>>289788922>two fatties slapping each otherThat's one of the best parts though!>>289789603He doesn't even go beast mode or anything; he's just vaguely described as a street fight specialist, fails a German suplex, then dies. What a disappointment.
>>289794028Like now?
>>289797926It's just what happens when you drink tea on an empty stomach

I am a B-lister Kengan fighter, how can I possibly stop being a nutrient and scale the wall?
>>289807701Start by calling your opponent "awesome", then proceed to comment on how every blow would be "devastating" if they hit while going limp and dispersing the impact.
>>289807844should I SHYYEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHH or KYAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIII?
>>289783136It's so weird seeing stuff like. I forget there are people (thirdies) who are genuinely eating up everything Sandro is shitting out. They don't know about the memes, about the A.I., they're just happy Ohma came back after all that boring shit in the first 50 chapters. God I envy them.
