I was re-reading some of the earlier chapters, and I forgot how ridiculously strong Adam Dudley apparently is

Yeah I wonder how his physical strength matches up against the other physical powerhouse type fighters.

Getting matched against Wakatsuki in the first round just seems like the second-worst luck imaginable, with only a match vs. the Fang being even less desirable.

Funny then that both guys got picked on purpose for the first round, while everyone avoided Gensai like the plague. I wonder if the second round is gonna shed more light on him and his CEO, they've both been pretty distant to the story so far.

It's nice that they aren't sticking with the dumb luck routine for kazzy and are finally letting him do some cool poo poo intentionally. He's still a total goofball, but he's been shown to be incredibly perceptive when it comes to combat, to the point where he sniffed out Akoya's trick in the first round even if he couldn't quite fit all the pieces together and figured out that Raian couldn't use the removal anymore before the other fighters did.

Now he's straight up blackmailing the Kure clan patriarch to ensure his son's and fighter's safety. He's developing throughout the story and I'm afraid of how powerful Kazzy the Kengan Master will become.

The One True Oden

Kazzy's gaining confidence. When push comes to shove, he can do what needs to be done! (or doesn't, actually, but is still impressive).

I'm betting Ohma will be in a coma until like right before his next match, just for maximum drama.

I'm really curious how they're going to address Ohma's health, since we now have explicit confirmation that Ohma has been killing himself as long as he's been using the Advance. Add that to getting kicked around by Raian and it seems like he should be about ready to die or be permanently crippled, heartwarming revelation or no.

That's how you know he's evil. A good guy just does body-destroying training ten times as hard as everyone else every day until they become a superman.

Yeah but Wakatsuki has been setup as a contender to take on Agito. Which feels like he's mid-boss territory in terms of ability

Does that mean he will spend an entire chapter vomitting because of excessive drug usage? Because that is a thing that happened and baki is very weird.

Cosmo is lucky that he didn't draw Julius in his first or second match. Setting aside the strength difference, I don't think Cosmo's arms are even long enough to wrap around Julius's limbs or neck. Cosmo would Zone and be left dangling helplessly from Julius's arm until Julius gets bored and flings Cosmo into the air.
