Oh, also, there was this side chapter that was really nice and just makes me sad that 1/2 of them are dead now. Poor Liu...

Whose that guy Liu fought in his debut match. You'd think I'd remember the strongest fighter in Purgatory or at least that the story would. It's not like the guy ate a crushing defeat and disappeared from the plot entirely after 80 chapters of buildup right... Right?

Idk how I feel about this new escalation. On one hand, It kind of makes sense that everyone is being concerned about a secret organization that does terrorist attacks and can create perfect clone of people and infiltrated probably every single place on Earth. On the other hand, I feel Kengan series isn't really bombastic and outlandish enough to sell the whole world being laser-focused on bunch dudes whose main purpose is "be able to punch good". In Baki, it makes perfect sense that there is a whole satellite network with sole purpose of monitoring Yuujiros every step, because it's the matter of global security. In comparison, I remain unconvinced about the whole "International alliance to stop Worm" thing, despite there being a relatively good reason for it.

I think that Xia and his brother both have incredible genetics behind them but Ji got the meek and spiteful personality instead of being dominant and calculating like his brother Yan. So that would explain why he's so hard to kill and so resilient, but also why he's such a clown. Odds are when the chips are truly down he either has another personality change or he just acts on instinct and that makes him really dangerous.

I think it's smart to make Xia somewhat important/strong, seeing as he's the villain we spent most time with (outside of maybe Setsuna).

I'm curious why the leader of the Worm says he's dismantling the (current) Worm for the Connector's sake.

Just what is their objective??? Are they gonna make a new Worm after this????

He has untapped potential and keeps doing Limit Breaks to push himself to that level but he can't keep it up.

He's basically young Gohan struggling to become a Super Saiyan right now.

So far their actions are 1. cutting edge genetics research. 2. Assist Neko Niko with his weird test subject students in exchange for ??? 3. send that one horse wrestler guy to keep Goah dirty by making him kill him 4. Bomb italy and be general miscreants around the world? and finally 5. keep hassling the Kengan association for some reason?

My guess is that this poo poo is getting made up as they go along so the final product they're working toward will be nonsensical in the means of it's manufacture!

my guess is that they've read baki and think it'd be neat to make a yuujiro. why is any of this necessary to make that happen? who knows! it makes about as much sense as yuujiro hanma in general.

Yeah whenever he’s been close to death he always pull off a miraculous escape that even top tier fighters are surprised at. He’s just too much of a coward to actually get serious before that
I’m guessing he’ll take down a named character(maybe Kokuro? If that guy hasn’t jobbed enough) and then go out in a blaze of glory against Koga while spiting his brother.

If the Worm's leadership has some ultimate end goal that they're directing the resources and manpower of "the Worm" as an organization toward, then they might not need that organization after they've accomplished that goal.

Tbf, "hating Worm" is like one of the main character traits for Himuro, so it's nice he is finally fighting one. Even if he will lose.

I don't think it was ever explained? IIRC he is from the same weird hellish lawless zone Ohma and Setsuna came from, inexplicably knows about Worm, hates them and that's kinda it?

I guess we will see why in the required power-up flashback, once the fight gets going. At least I hope he won't job so hard he won't even get the flashback. :ohdear:
