Oh yeah, this fight was glorious. Just two superhuman monster brutally beating the poo poo out of each other. Probably one of my favorites so far.

My books. They could not prepare me for such tactics. Is the implication that Sen ditched a match to let Wakatsuki fight the Fang?

I wish it was possible to read the wiki to find stuff like this out when you forget except whoever filled it in did it based on the raws

Uhh that’s not how I expected this to go. In fact I assumed there’d be another chapter before moving on. Am I missing something or was Wakatsuki using his injured foot with those last few kicks? Overall it does seem like the winners of this round are getting the poo poo kicked out of them. Which I think is going to lead to upsets as people take advantage of that fact

so who's julius going to make friends with first now that he's lost?
|
# ? Oct 4, 2018 18:45 |

He'll probably just stick with Hayami's bunch because they're all a bunch of antisocial dorks who would rather be plotting attacks on the tournament instead of hanging out with Adam Dudley

doing another reread of the early chapters and with how ohma fought kaburagi koji a blind off against muteba could be good

It turns out that maybe it helps to have some techniques even if you're like, really, really strong.

Calling that Muteba will be winning the next fight up until he accidentally trips over one of the massive craters that have now been punched in the arena floor and breaks his neck.

I'm not upset with the result of the fight but I do hope Julius hangs around and has good taste in tshirts

So Hayami hired like a dozen fighters, got two extra spots and all his fighters lost in the first actual official fight they took part in. A brilliant bid for the Chairman seat.

I think Wakatsuki has been practicing that kick as well because he assumed the fang might figure out a way to stop the BLAST CORE.

i forgot that Sen knows Niko and also schooled Ohma's admittedly injured advance form and it was shown really early on

All we really know is that he’s flighty af. Also everyone who knows who he is; knows he’s mad stronk The fact that he beat Wakatsuki at some previous point in time attests to that fact AtomikKrab posted:I think Wakatsuki has been practicing that kick as well because he assumed the fang might figure out a way to stop the BLAST CORE.

Yeah, particularly with Agito's assessment of Raian in mind. Definitely paints the picture of a dude who could have gone all the way in this tournament, but ended up falling relatively early due to his own personality getting in the way. Funny how that essentially ended up being the case with both of the fighters Agito mentioned to Wakatsuki

Completely agree with Fang, Waka is really loving dull. He relies on pure power waaay to much. This fight would have been better if it was before Raian vs Ohma, in which Ohma used technique to defeat Raian vs just pure brute force. On the last page was it a translation error when it was said "What made the ultimate difference was TACTICS"?

I'm not sure how that's a typo, Wakatsuki tricked Julius into thinking he was going for a Blast Core to the vitals when he was actually planning to use a kick. That's a feint right there.

It's also a nice parallel to how Erio, during his time as the Fang, once lost in a Kengan match and got so motivated to get better that he returned to the Kure Clan and studied up every technique his family had.

I'm rereading some earlier chapters, and this panel is kind of funny in retrospect (since it is very clearly not true given later events):

The author did say that if there was a female-only Kengan tournament, Karla would probably win cause she's super strong.

It's actually a bit surprising there are no women fighters, since they're clearly okay with huge weight class differences (and you have folks like hair dude or Cosmo, who are pretty small).

I think one of the captains of the Bodyguards is a woman, but that's the only one I know (beyond Karla and the other Kure).
