Let's all appreciate how hard it is to get blood out of clothing. And how Muteba quite possibly went out of his way to go help Sekibayashi out.

The One True Oden

Muteba got his clothes bloody! That's true friendship. I hope he wins the whole tournament.

I was thinking that this might just become a regular ol' fighting manga, with everyone facing off against various Guardians for the remaining chapters, but I'm glad I was wrong. The tournament is definitely gonna continue without a hitch. I just hope Cosmo didn't get too injured, if both he and Ohma got a big power up that fight is gonna be hella good.

e: I accidentally a word.

Well, so much for that.

And I guess Takayama was the only Metsudo bodyguard worth a drat after all.

I'm very glad that Himuro happened to be around Okubo at the time this went down.

People not redeemed in this series yet

1)The Cop
2)Energy Baron
3)That guy who got his testicles crushed and then killed by that good guy

Not only did Muteba get his clothes dirty, but he went all the way to the medical room despite the fact that he lacked any injuries, which means he went there just to check on his pals.

The cop doesn't need redemption because being an alpha vigilante cop is already badass.

he's a serial killer, not a vigilante. vigilantes kill criminals, not everyone related to criminals.

A vigilante isn't someone who kills criminals, a vigilante is someone who takes the law into his own hands without any sort of legal justification.

being related to a criminal is not a crime. killing such people is not vigilantism. also, as we saw during his fight with cosmo akai murders people because he really enjoys slowly torturing people to death for the sin of opposing him. miss stockholm syndrome is the only person on the planet who actually buys his bullshit excuses.

Akoya is both a murderer and a vigilante. All the people he killed in both flashbacks were criminals, even the college student who was also trafficking drugs. That doesn't mean he isn't unhinged, but he's clearly led by a sense of preserving public peace through working outside the law. That desire has been severely warped though to the point that an 18yo underground street fighter is also in violation of his "justice"

...of course being related to a criminal isn't a crime under the penal code of the state of Japan. But Akoya is killing as a vigilante and not as a state persecutor or a judge and he follows his own set of laws.

Um, Cosmo was not only willingly participating in illegal bloodsport tournament, he knowingly assaulted a police officer and then resisted arrest. Akoya's actions were clearly justified self-defense and he should get a medal. :colbert:

I am the law. Also, I want to see more of Hawai. That guy makes Haruo look small. Was pretty surprised to see Rei's master here, since I thought he gave up the martial art when he passed it on but I'm glad it happened. Inaba too.

Awesome chapter with an amazing amount of references.

We still haven't seen the conclusion to Gaolong/Adam/Kaneda/Cosmo vs spinny sword guy right? It ended on Kaneda basically going "Oh poo poo Cosmo's got (imperfect) Foresight now!"
