I am still shocked that Medicine Man is as relevant as he's been so far.

that was a while back. the bodyguards were following all the fighters around on the first day of the tournament, and setsuna got cranky and ganked some of them

he was "crushed" by Hassad, not necessarily killed

His head wasn't censored, so I assume he is alive but anime injured.

So ohma might have used up three chapters of flashbacks, but with the "Tiger" being present, how many more does he have gained from recovering his memories?

Recovered memories is generally a pretty powerful upgrade. Usually means unlocking your limiter

Ohma has regained consciousness, his memories and still remembers that Yamashita Kazuo is his friend.

This is all working out better than I would've hoped, honestly.

iirc it was on the boat, when they trounced hassad some blood splattered on ohma and kiryu flipped the gently caress out.

I'm really glad my job isn't trying to stop an angry Julius Reinhold. He's looking pretty scary and kind of came out of the Wakatsuki fight in a lot better shape despite losing.

You really have to question these guys sanity, or admire the size of their balls. If I had seen most of the second round fights, I would not be picking a fight with those guys no matter how many weapons I have save a rifle. Imagine walking up to Gensai, setsuna, wakatsuki and yes Julius. and thinking "yeah, I have a chance here".

Wakatsuki is also terrible to fight. He and Julius can both just HOSS you through a couple walls and most of your squad.

Muteba got paid to win a tournament, not stop a terrorist attack. He's probably just chilling out somewhere rather than fighting

Imai - Gains Kaneda's "Foresight".

Ohma - Gains the "secret technique" of the Niko Style but burned up three chapters' worth of flashbacks in exchange for it.

Wakatsuki - ???

Muteba - ???

Rei - ???

Beard - Learns the "Ripper" technique from Rihito.

Hatsumi - Gains a Stand after learning the Joestar family secret technique and becoming an honorary Joestar.

Fang - Gains the gratitude of all Kengan readers after "accidentally" killing Murdercop.

Wata- is now two-face, flips a coin to decide everything

Muteba- robot laser eyes

Rei- finally gets to third base after rino unlocks the chasity belt

Going back to the tournament after all this poo poo is done is gonna be weird

Or rather maybe this whole thing is an excuse for the top 8 to "power up" before their quarter finals

I get the feeling that they're giving cosmo a power up so that when ohma stomps him it looks even more impressive

Oh yeah I was thinking less "very powerful" and more "totally willing to brutally murder you if you attack them" I feel like Wakatsuki would be fine with just knocking you out

like Gensai would probably just pierce your heart and kill you instantly but Akoya would brutally torture you, Muteba would probably rip your eyeballs out before killing you, and Hanafusa would give you Super AIDS

All the dudes in the background of Komada and Ivan's scenes are the guys that went down on the boat. Masaki's target. Nikado's target, and the two hitmen who went after Rei and Cosmos.

Pretty proud that I solved the medicine man mystery in my speculation post a while back and holy poo poo was it cool to see him and hassad get a full face turn. I did completely miss that the invasion force was a decoy as well though. It was a cool plan that had some layers to it, a massive invasion force on the boat and a smaller infiltration force both used as a decoy to hide the fact that all of his forces were already in the dome to take the crowd hostage. The parade of callback characters was a really fun and exciting way for the good guys to counterattack.
