Unless you get your neck snapped and then dropped on your head you'll be up and fight ready in no time at all.

Man, the whole "losing the tournament doesn't mean you're out of the story because of shady background poo poo" plus "characters too injured to fight in future rounds and this can be substituted (potentially with fighters who have lost already) give this comic a leg up on your typical battle manga elimination tourney

Gensai also says "you've managed to make me abandon my left arm": https://mangadex.org/chapter/467203/19 Which leans towards at least unusable for now

I R SMART LIKE ROCK posted:Gensai also says "you've managed to make me abandon my left arm": https://mangadex.org/chapter/467203/19 He's literally holding Kiryu back with his left arm in the page before that, with a grip strong enough to leave visible indents on Kiryu's muscles. Hell, the panel before that. He doesn't seem actually hurt at all, unlike the previous person we saw get hosed up by Rakshasa's Palm. I read that line as "you forced me to deliberately take damage in order to kill you", like a sort of "it's regrettable that my invincible technique got pushed this far", rather than "it's regrettable that my arm is busted and unusable now".

Wow wait poo poo, is Kiryu dead? I was still half asleep when I first read the chapter but it looks like Kuroki straight up murdered him. Then again, a pierced heart is a relatively minor wound in this tournament, so I wouldn't be surprised to see him knocking back a beer with Kuroki next chapter.

Also one cool panel this chapeter is Kiryu throwing blood into Kuroki's eyes after having his hand pierced and Kuroki doesn't even blink

I think Gensai at least meant to kill him and probably did but this is Kengan Ashura so he'll probably be back, despite his similarities with the only guy who has died so far. And they made sure to let us know that the damage on Gensai's left arm was at least minimized so he's looking pretty good for going through to the third round. How impressive is his composure, though? He's fighting someone who seems to be faster than him, has a one hit kill, and keeps actually disappearing from his sight only to instantly be in front of him with multiple killing blows. Still takes it methodically.

I'm glad I was wrong because Gensai has been my favorite fighter in the tournament since his first round.

Gensai already defeated the favorite to win the whole tournament in the first round, you should all be ashamed of doubting him.

I honestly hope that Setsuna is actually dead. It would be a really great twist for the crazy prodigy psychopath rival with the tragic murderboner-for-the-protagonist backstory to just get unceremoniously killed by someone completely unrelated to his murderboner due to one of his many crimes catching up to him.

setsuna seemed way stronger than ohma once he started pulling out niko style moves. i'm not sure how a match when they are both already severely hosed up would go, though.

It's a pretty fitting end, given that Ohma has already gotten over their rivalry. I love how Setsuna is convinced this is just another stepping stone on the road to his big showdown even as he's being (possibly) fatally speared in the chest again. Turns out being lucid is kind of important in these matches!

Gensai has to be my favorite fighter. He doesn't have some crazy gimmick, or some special martial arts only passed down through blood line or other dumbass bullshit. He hits really hard, he reads his opponent while devising a counter strategy and he stays cool. Amongst a sea of weirdos, he's blandness is a breath of fresh air.

Mokichi losing so early sucked, because he actually had a really neat fighting style with the bizarre mix of boxing and jujitsu Baritsu thing.

Am I the only one who is super interested by Taira Genzan and hopes he comes back for a prequel? It’s interesting to hear the different perspectives on the guy who (reportedly?) killed Niko.

gensai increasing his friend count for his ultimate showdown with the fang later on he's on even footing right now but if agito makes friends with gaolang then gensai will be in real trouble

I gotta say I'm not disappointed even with how obvious the overall outcome was of this chapter because it was so well written. So Hatsumi is gonna crush Bando and then lose to fang because he gets lazy and loses his edge.

Rihito becoming Gensai's disciple makes perfect sense given that their killer moves have similar principles, we should've seen it coming a mile away.
