Not really; if she can't move her hands/feet it's not like having underwear on is going to expand her options (and if it did then she could just as easily literally use her boobs as a weapon*). *Honestly surprised this didn't happen

Did you somehow miss the part where she had a bunch of needles under her choker and used them to take out a scientist and two guards, as well as breaking some magic resin?

Only because they didn't search the choker, like idiots. Which is weird, because they made a big deal out of totally justifying why she had to be totally naked. Why even just a scrap of cloth could kill! Oh, poo poo, nobody noticed the necklace in the rush to fill the nudity quota.

New Chapter http://www.mangapanda.com/historys-strongest-disciple-kenichi/545 The twist now has me confused, I may need to re-read the manga

Kind of left feeling a bit underwhelmed by the chapter given that there's never been any hints before that I recall that she had a brother. Would have had more impact if Matsunaga had set it up in the last arc or two instead of just springing it. More than that, the ending reminded me that it's still a bit disappointing that Kenichi never uses a weapon of any kind. Even if he doesn't want to use bladed ones, there's still things like tonfa that he could use occasionally. Or even a bokken, or whatever those wooden training swords Kenpo practitioners use. Would be cool to see him use one to honor Shigure at some point the way he honored Appa by using only Muay Thai (or Muay Boran or whatever variation it was) against Tirawit after Appa was "killed".

Not much to say, but at least the fighting in this chapter was well done. There was a sense of movement that a lot of the early chapters had, but was lost somewhere around the start of this uber-long arc. But, yeah, the brother should have been introduced way before this reveal. There was plenty of time for it.

Chapter 546 Last panel is the best

# ? Nov 9, 2013 18:34 |

Really? Doesn't seem anything special to me. Honoka is the sister I assume? Age gap seems a bit much from what little I recall of her. Personally I much prefer the panel right after Alien-dude asks if there's any place for him on the One Shadow's team, because Kenichi looks quite a bit like Sakaki.

I figure it's that Hermit has Honoka on the mind (for whatever reason), and Kenichi is just doing the big brother rejection just to be safe. The setup is what helps the joke. "I've learned something else that's important...dude, stop thinking about my sister so much."

Got to question the methodology of the mustache mook apparently in charge. This is, like, the exact opposite of the entire plan. Hurry, go out and rile up the only people strong enough to stop us and bring them to this location, which we've been very careful to keep them unaware of. Ha, ha, our plan to force this woman, who we only barely control, into doing our bidding will be a cinch once we add more people we can't stop into the mix!

A manga where thrusting rifle barrels into a woman's mouth and breasts is considered erotic fanservice. A reprehensibly shameful manga.

It was, but I thought both Koutsuji teaching computers like a martial art at Nijima's headquarters and Kenichi's look when he turned on the gun user were both cooler to be honest. I always love seeing Kenichi and Miu step it up a bit though.

As soon as I saw the panel with Akisame standing there with the car barrelling towards him with Kenichi inside , it was pretty clear how it was going to be resolved... Awesomely

I'm always a sucker for the single panels of the masters with their eyes lit up about to commit some violence. Though Ma just casually propping the cut-out back up was pretty good too. Feel kinda bad for that sniper though, Apachi doesn't know how to hold back.

Ytlaya posted:Is Kenichi at a "guns are worthless" level yet? Close range from someone who isn't a master-class with guns? Most likely. He'd probably get aced by any long range sneak attack, though. Not that he ever will because that would be dumb. Pretty good chapter overall

Ytlaya posted:Is Kenichi at a "guns are worthless" level yet? Nah, that poo poo is master level. The apparently insurmountable gap between disciples and masters in one of the things I like about this manga. We have seen that Tanaka guy take the step going from expert to master but Kenichi&Co are barely approaching expert level. It would be a good thing to have Kenichi end the story as no longer a disciple-class fighter but not yet a master (since he's supposed to have zero "talent" anyways).

trucutru posted:Nah, that poo poo is master level. You don't need to be a master that's for sure since Miu has already displayed pretty good bullet dodging (shot by pros) ability in latest chapter. Kenichi is probably less agile than her, but I still think he can replicate something similar if not now, then in a very near future.

Miu has the physical ability of an expert, but her mentality is rather weak. I guess that is the result of holding back for most of her life.

Up to 553 now, plot seems kinda slow these days but hopefully things will pick up soon. Wonder if anything bad will actually happen to shigure or if we'll just see her naked a lot more. (rhetorical)

(rhetorical) HSDK 554. Things are definitely starting to pick up and it is about time the good guys grabbed a few of the other katsujinken masters to help out. I love that the former Yami weapons dude is with them too, James Shiba and Freya's grandfather also it looks like. The biggest issue I can see is that there are so many freaking disciples... somehow the Shinpaku alliance needs to show up so that Kenichi doesn't have to fight 10 people. Miu and Renka can obviously handle a bunch of them but it still leaves Kenichi with a lot of fights.
