They made Kenzo hot, the absolute madmen.

I feel like this is the chapter where we're entering a new phase of the story with this timeskip. I think within a couple of chapters we'll start seeing the beginnings of some payoff to some of the things that are being set up in the worm plotline, and the tournament shouldn't be too far behind that. Also was it Jose that injured Yumigahama bad enough for Purgatory to agree to postponing the tournament? I can't remember if they mentioned that, but if so good on him, probably the only reason Koga has a shot of getting a spot in the bracket.

I'm really looking forward to tournament bracket chat and predictions in the thread, especially now that we don't have the looming threat of spoilers from the raws hanging over our heads like we did in ashura.

Yeah, Jose got put in the hospital but he broke one of Yumihahama's arms in the process though.

Is this the first time we've seen him without his mask though? I feel like it is.

Oh no, Koga is gonna get his rear end kicked (again).

But that's okay, because from the direction the story is going, the Worm is going to kidnap him, turn hiim into a cyborg, only for him to escape before the brainwashing and fight them as a hero. Kamen Kengan, Narushima Koga, fights the evil organization Worm to protect humanity's freedom!

The thing about a character in a battle manga who gets his rear end kicked is, the more often it happens during the character's ascent, the more sweet that moment when he finally crests over the peak into winning fights is

Remember, even Goku had to fight in three World Martial Arts Tournaments before he won one

Kid, don't threaten me. There are worse things than death, and uh, I can do all of them.
Koga getting his rear end kicked is the most dangerous thing though because all Koga’s powerups have come from getting his rear end kicked.

Very interested to see evil guy’s reaction to Ryuki, i’m sure he will want to fight but can’t kill him for ~reasons~

gimme the GOD DAMN candy

i think this is the first actual dangerous fight that koga's encountered. his other fights also had very low stakes. so, for the first time it is very important that he wins, or at least avoids losing.

lol he gonna lose.

I feel like Koga's first really cool win will come in a real match and not against an apparent main antagonist he strikes first against.

The problem with kicking Koga's rear end is that it puts you in Ryuki's eyesight.

The One True Oden

The series is becoming Ghost in the Shell so slowly we didn't even notice. I was wondering what was up with Kenzo messing around with brains in the first series. That's the thing that made Kaz think he was crazy in the first series.

Very excited to see Koga kick that smug rear end in a top hat's rear end. It's time for him to get a win!

Kuroki parrying Metal Gear Ray while Rules of Nature blares in the background would unironically be the greatest jumping of a shark the world has ever seen.
