Brought To You By posted:But he still has to his the area that will be affected? I'm confused here even the slap to Akoya was right next to his eye the only thing I agree on is that he doesn't have to dig as deep as Muteba/Hanafusa have too but it's not like it really matters from a story perspective. All three fighters can poke someone to death if they tried. There is a massive difference between "precisely jab your finger(s) into this pinprick sized acupuncture point under the correct angle and with enough force" and "just strike your opponent's body anywhere in the area vaguely adjacent to the body part you want to affect with (seemingly) any part of your own body". One is trivially easy to defend against, defending against the other one is almost impossible.

The rules are similar to actual MMA with respect to hitting grounded opponents - you can have a brawl with both people on or near the ground as part of the interplay of grappling and fighting for position, but you cannot strike someone who is grounded and potentially being counted out. The judo match was both fighters ending up on the ground and then brawling to gain advantage from there; neither was in a "downed" position (inactive.) Murdercop is properly grounded here; Fake LeBanner is supposed to return to his metaphorical corner and wait for the ref to count Akoya out.

One is trivially easy to defend against, defending against the other one is almost impossible. I don't want to make this a drawn out back and forth but I just looked up acupuncture points on the head and where Nicolas slapped Akoya is 1:1 the location of an acupuncture point. Depending on where you want to say the actual sting is he could have disbled Akoya's left ear or as we saw his eye. I still agree with you that he has a much lighter requirement to land his attacks and gain an effect. But the reality is that his stuff is also less overtly lethal and causes no pain compared to what Hanafusa and Muteba do. In a series filled with bullshit martial arts techniques he's not any better or worse than the people he's comparable too. And I do buy into the idea that this is only a real problem because of how Akoya's defense works. If this were Ohma or Sen, people that specialize in redirection Nicolas would be less a threat.

In this case, Le Banner here might not have murdered his whole squad and all the civilians, but probably did a bunch of other war crimes. Hoping they mutually murder each other

It was brought up on Reddit but Jean pretty much did the whole Resurrection thing that the Wu practice, and the dude did it by himself, without any clan techniques. He worshiped Nicholas to the point where after killing Nicholas, he brainwashed himself into believing he was Nicholas. That's pretty impressive!

even though faux nicholas is a delusional war criminal, he's still not as loathsome as akoya. for all of the grim reaper rhetoric, the guy still joined a non-lethal underground fight organization and seems to have followed the rules about not killing. heck, he's not even as bad as the real nicholas.

When Akoya finishes eating Le Banner's head like an apple, he will become the new Nicholas Le Banner.

Kanos posted:When Akoya finishes eating Le Banner's head like an apple, he will become the new Nicholas Le Banner. At least we now know why the author went for a series of 1vs1 fights instead of more traditional tournament - it would be a foregone conclusion that Nicholas Le Banner would be the winner.

If everyone is Nicholas Le Banner, then only Nicholas Le Banner can be the winner.

where the red fern gropes posted:kazzy really needs to start feeding his fighters before a match An Akoya doesn't normally tong feed, they only eat live prey they catch. You need to do regular weight monitoring to make sure your Akoya is keeping at a healthy weight and catching prey. Since calcium dusting can wear off before he catches his food, adding a supplement to his water is vital.

Plutonis posted:Why the gently caress didn't Lolong intervene on the previous fights? Also lol he finally left his seat Honestly there was no time to react for any of them but Alissa was clearly trying to get them to stop for most of the match and I imagine even Lolong is tired of this poo poo. This is also the 3rd time we've seen him not sitting down.

Neither fighter died, neither fighter was disqualified first, and Lolong was asked to come down and separate them by the ref. I'm going for draw
