I mean the guy who talks about sinister foreigners invading Japan is specifically characterized as dangerous, sociopathic manchild, so it hardly seems like something Kengan Omega endorses.

The mangaka is just setting up the plot hook for the next sequel, Kengan Gamma Beta - International Tournament Edition. This will be where Boldman Zachs, Wacdonalds, Moogle and their affiliated fighters finally make their appearances.

I find it a little silly that Koga, who is generally built like a brick shithouse can't even stagger someone (even someone very big) with a full cresent kick to the head. The whole thing with Koga is that his fundamentals are extremely solid. Like, putting on 15 more pounds of muscle and learning punch/kick magic shouldn't turn that same kick into a knockdown for example.

I wonder how Gaoh's, gonna be training. Makes sense that he'd be at a disadvantage using something that looks like Ohma's fighting style. Everyone's probably poured over all the moves for that one since he came out of nowhere and only lost in the finals.Fabricated posted:I find it a little silly that Koga, who is generally built like a brick shithouse can't even stagger someone (even someone very big) with a full cresent kick to the head. The whole thing with Koga is that his fundamentals are extremely solid. That's basically been Jun's entire credo in the last one though? You're a pro wrestler so you take every hit and gently caress up their form so they're actually hurting themselves while they're hitting you. Him training other people to do the same is pretty drat impressive, considering how much of a nightmare his training is.

A week late on this discussion, but the only problematic thing about Kengan Asura's portrayal of businessmen is that it falsely implies they are cool bros who are fun to hang out with.
|
# ? Apr 5, 2019 16:37 |

It implies that about the CEOs who get to make Big Decisions and live on the edge. The few middle management types have been Kazzy's obnoxious coworker or Kazzy himself, a salaryman who gave up on life. This is probably worse tbh but the whole comic is about the secret world of CEOs.

Betcha eating massive amounts of food will be the most difficult part of Koga’s wrestling training.

Koga seems like a punky Ohma who never had a 'master' to teach him. Everyone we know from Ashura so far says he has potential and that means a lot. If Sekibyashi sees you bashing up his #1 guy even though your not doing much he sees what you can do. I look forward to Koga's evolution into being a 'normal guy' fighter Or he goes to Purgatory and the manga becomes him vs uhh poo poo that Ohma looking cat who also owns

So it turns out the dude with Kure eyes isn't actually a Kure? Maybe an offshoot branch? Or maybe he's from the original branch and the Kure were based off that branch? Wu seems like a Chinese surname, so maybe the Removal art originated in China? Also who will the other 9 fighters be? Gaolong and Wakatsuki make 2, and if we assume that our 2 plucky protagonists will make it in, that leaves 9 more. Wonder if they'll mostly be new characters or oldies from Kengan Ashura. I'm hoping to see Raian, Haru, and Rihito most of all. EDIT:

It seems pretty clear that the Chinese-American(?) Wu comes from an older family and the Japanese Kure clan is the offshoot that ran off 1000 years ago.
