Having a personality that can only be described as "main character" is part of the problem, but really he doesn't even get that much screen time or interaction with the colorful weirdos. I'm certain he'll be more interesting once his fight starts but going off to do boring shounen training when everybody cool is hanging out at the beach? C'mon man

gimme the GOD drat candy posted:

ohma's a loner while most of the other fighters are good-natured and social. heck, even fang is more friendly than ohma and he barely understands the concept of being friendly.

Yeah I think this is the main reason I find it hard to get excited about Ouma as a person.

He's got plenty of mystery and intrigue and backstory but all that is done alone (or with imaginary Niko), and since he's constantly off by himself he doesn't get to bounce off other people who aren't Kazzy or the secretary. Cause character interaction is so good in this series. Like Togo looking after Wakaba in the sauna. Jun taking Haru under his wing. Sakura (Kaede's sister) getting along with Wakatsuki, Cosmo, Jun, and Takeru. Mokichi bonding with Erio over their overprotective natures. People constantly thinking Rin and Kaneda are related.

At least it's funny when he runs away from Karla.

That said, I'm hype for his fight against Raian. The Kure are so awesome and maybe we can finally get into how Ouma's Advance is related to the Kure Removal.

I think there'll be a lot of room for Ohma to bounce off people once he starts to work his personal issues out a little.

Raian's gonna beat the everloving poo poo out of Ohma and then Niko's gonna take over his body and win the fight for him.

It's nice the story does call Akoya and his CEO's issues out. That's not a healthy relationship and it's going to end in disaster eventually.

I am really glad they made akoya a bit more interesting in his second fight. He's a completely hateable piece of poo poo with an interesting gimmick. It somehow wound up being a more brutal fight than Muteba's fight, probably because Cosmo was actually feeling every bit of pain.

Wakasa is probably the stupidest person on this manga hands down.

After Cosmo responded to nearly being tortured to death by an unrepentant psychopath with the standard shonen ‘thanks for helping me get stronger, let’s fight again someday!’ I’m not so sure anymore. :(

Let's give Cosmo the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he just wants to fight murdercop again so that he can kill him properly this time round.

Yeah, I think this one was up there with the doctor fight. Can't believe Akoya's still breathing. I guess being able to form sentences and not repeat yourself means you're a more sane and less dangerous serial murderer.

Alright boys, we have thousands of years of human eugenics and martial arts assimilation versus the amnesiac with his own fancy moves. The stakes have never been higher for our MC Kazzy.

Seems like every round there's a short-term personal peril to Kazzy at stake. Round one was the ten Penasonic TVs, and this round it's his son's life. How are they going to keep raising the stakes in Round Three and beyond?

Ohma can’t fight so Kazzy has to. Matches are completely decided by if he can get the fix in because whatever psychopath he’s up against will mulch him immediately

Well his opponent would be Cosmo based on the brackets, who isn't much of a psycho and currently can't stand up.

They did, but he was trying to deceive them, telling them that the other guy was the real CEO. If he had succeeded in deceiving them, they wouldn't be mad, because they wouldn't know!
