It's amazingly impressive that the terrifying bendy mass murderer is debatably the less unsettling competitor here.

Unless it ends in a double KO, I'd rather Bandou move forward, cause while Doctor Death has a neat gimmick and I dig the concept of abnormal vs abnormal, I feel like a dude who's got blades in his hands is somewhat detrimental to a tournament between punchmans.

as long as they dont kill each other we should get to see one of them fight at least one more time, which is awesome

From a societal point of view Bando losing is the dramatically better option, because he's a crazy mass murderer and Doctor Death is actually an extremely competent doctor who doesn't kill people at random.

He's basically a government-sanctioned assassin, so he gets sent in to kill people who the government can't bring to justice in a normal way. Still evil as poo poo but way less evil than random mass murder.

Bando was the one who killed yakuza. Hos hobby in med school was raiding yakuza offices and killing them all. Bando has the moral high ground imo.

The MC is probably one of the lamest fighters in this series by virtue of almost always having to resort to his SSJ mode. Like he'll use all these cool techniques, but it's almost never enough against any opponent who's actually at the level of most of the fighters in this tournament.

Fake edit:

I get the impression that, while Agito is solidly better enough to reliably win, he isn't the sort of character who can just easily dominate everyone else (like your average anime/manga final boss) and still has to try really hard against the other strong contenders.

It would be the reverse. The doctor eliminated dangerous cults and other groups as a government agent. Bando did a single calculated rampage and spent the rest of his life in prison defying the death penalty. Yeah Bando killed some Yakuza, and that's a net positive for the people they were harming, but the Good Doctor has effectively ended a global crisis before it could even start saving millions.

Also we're not sure if Bando did that because he believed in helping others. I can see him doing that because Yakuza would be a good excuse to test his body out on dangerous people.

that's a neat way to end it. hanafusa didn't ever actually need to win the match, since his only goal was to kill bando. progressing through the tournament was completely irrelevant to him.
