Unfortunately, it was really hard to not guess that the fight will end up this way. I really hoped for a surprise, but alas not this time. :sigh:

Also the kind of defensive move that doesn't fit into the rest of Rei's speedy assassin style at all.

This.

Also, is anyone else curious as to how the Village of the Dawn got involved with the Kengan Association to begin with? Compared to not-Panasonic, not-Kinokuniya, and not-McDonalds, the Bumfuck, Kyushu Kiwanis Club seems a bit out of place, unless it's another shell corporation like Rihito Inc.

I believe Saw Paing has one more Hammer of Burma left in him.

It's weird because the Village of the Dawn is a Kengan associate presumably for some time, they didn't just get their membership since they didn't have to get on the SS. Annihilation in the beginning meaning they had some status already. I'm really not sure how a village based on Auroville got involved in underground fighting but apparently they had influence.

Assuming this fight is decided, I don't expect Rei makes it any further than this. If Setsuna wins next match then he probably wins right side bracket to face ohma in finals. If Gensai wins he's already been mentioned as an assassin whose style is better suited than Rei's for winning a straight up fight.

Toyo had a mystery person along with Julius passing round 1. I assumed it was Akoya until it turned out that he's insane in a way that makes him unsuitable. The other fighters don't fit so I'm thinking it's Cosmo.

Gensai is the old but not ancient martial arts master who is privy to the secret of whatever Niko's deal was.

He'll make it to the semi-finals at least.

Their mystery person was Saw since they only had Ren, Julius, Meguro, Karo, and Saw as blackmailed/loyal fighters.

Fake edit:Mockey too since Destiny land made a deal.

Toyo Electric only has the force that infiltrated the island by ship now that (I'm assuming lightning man will win this one and fight the other assassin) . There's also the heavenly wolves led by nikaido waiting in the wings. Whatever plans they had for winning the tournament have mostly been foiled so I imagine we'll see them make their move relatively soon.

Hopefully the breakup is referring to Rei's skull and spinal column as Saw Paing climbs to his feet yet again and tries another Hammer of Burma.

I always kind of hoped Rino wasn't just using Rei to avoid the obvious but with how they met that seems pretty unlikely.

I was going to ask this; what do they even have kengan matches for? Is the dude who runs the village secretly a drug lord or something
