How chill most of the fighters are when not fighting is still my favorite thing in this series. Imai and Dudley watching the match together .

I want to see Jun win because I think Jun vs Mutemba would be more interesting than sumo vs Mutemba.

Even so I don't think there were many surprises so far, if only because the left side had like, 5 guys so far who were either really heavy favorites or built up well before the tournament. (Ohma, Raian, Cosmo, Takeshi, Julius)

Glad Jun won. Gizenga though is going to be the worst possible matchup for his style of defense.

I agree with most of those picks except that I really like Gensai's grizzled mountain man looking design and have him as my dark horse pick. I think he beats Setsuna and maybe even Rei.

Rihito is probably going to give mockey dude competition for being the biggest jobber. Also think Gao wins because he looks like he'd be a better matchup vs Fang.

Ytlaya posted:I get the impression Naoya is actually one of the stronger people in this tournament and probably could beat a number of the competitors (though super doubtfully the fang). Fang's side of the bracket also faces him against Gaolong next and then probably Sen. It's pretty well set up to where he's not just fighting some jobber at any point.

I don't think Kaneda would have much chance vs Okubo, at least if they fought in the first round, just because Okubo has such a wide skillset that Kaneda would probably take too long to figure him out.

When you're around a man as powerful as Kazzy you have no choice but to show respect.

Ohma oversleeps and misses his fight with Raian. To avoid disqualification, Kazzy reps his own company in the match, and ultimately wins the tournament.

Suspicious Lump posted:Maan, whatever power Kazzy has is super cool. I'm guessing it's his innate ability to judge people, which includes their fighting abilities. His abilities are putting him in more of a mental wreck than usual, so many insane psychopathic fighters. Guessing just like, really good instincts/intuition. He's kinda like Kaneda in that he has like, the mental traits that would have succeeded as a fighter but not the physical body for it. Probably could have used those traits to succeed in something else but lacking too much in self-confidence.

Assuming this fight is decided, I don't expect Rei makes it any further than this. If Setsuna wins next match then he probably wins right side bracket to face ohma in finals. If Gensai wins he's already been mentioned as an assassin whose style is better suited than Rei's for winning a straight up fight.

Kanos posted:He won specifically because he fought Gaolang in a brutal punch-up for an entire match that involved Gaolang taking multiple brutal headshots, then snuck in a single grapple completely out of nowhere to wrongfoot Gaolang for just a moment, which in turn allowed him to finish it with a strike. Yeah, I'm guessing if Fang had even just done the switch up earlier in the battle it might not have worked. It's similar to the mindset behind Cosmo's zone. At the end of a tough fight when the opponent is really trying to go for the kill is when they're most vulnerable to that sort of thing.

OnimaruXLR posted:I imagine a situation like this is like being a murderous kid in a candy store for Muteba, assuming his employer wants him to join the fray instead of just waiting things out. It'd be like if there were burglars breaking into Wayne Manor hoping to steal all the valuables. Yeah, the previous chapter talked about armed vs unarmed fighters, but Muteba is the guy who decided the best way to go after a group of armed mercenaries is to just climb up on the ship mostly naked.

There's nothing stopping him now from just ambushing ohma later and demanding a fight. Knowing setsuna though this could just be simply to deal with an abrupt murderboner.

Bushmeister posted:It's funny that it's his third appearance and we still know relatively little about Gensai and his motivations. We know he's dedicated to karate to the point of perfection, an assassin that knows many of the movers & shakers of the previous generation if not the current one, but like no reason as to why he chose to come to the fights now or why his CEO chose him. I would imagine that anyone on Gensai's level would have been approached to fight in Kengan matches previously. He's just a very good teacher whose current students are the entire tournament roster.
