Seconding that the portrayal of pro wrestling and indeed everything else about this manga is Top Notch

This fight is so good. I can't stop re-reading it. I'm even re-reading the fight with him vs Ohma just to get my fix of the magnificence that is Hell's Angel Sekibayashi Jun.

I can't stop rereading this fight even though I've reread the raws a million times.

i want to believe that the muscle professor is still alive despite that being pretty darn impossible.
If Danberu is canon then he lived long enough to write a book about it.

The conversation they have when he is first introduced is amazing in context as well.

edit: deleted spoilers

When the anime hits I’m hoping Kazuo gets more screen time, or even a spin-off series!

Am I the only one who is super interested by Taira Genzan and hopes he comes back for a prequel?

It’s interesting to hear the different perspectives on the guy who (reportedly?) killed Niko.

Any fighter whose CEO was associated with the coup is potentially now a free agent.

We could have any and all of Julius, Adam, Haruo and Nikaido Ren in Kazzy’s stable. Haruo could actually make for a great protagonist given that there is a growth arc ahead of him.

Edit: Kaneda too, given that he took someone else’s spot and also has sigificant room to improve.

“Fighter’s Apprentice” implies there is a fighter to apprentice to..

Edit: “He hardly comes to see matches Yamashita Trading Co isn’t involved in” also implies that he already has a fighter, or is at least on good enough terms with other companies to let him borrow theirs.

Rihito can’t lose here but I fully expect these two to become friends after this.

Actor guy or Marvellous Seki would have been great fights for this guy as well.

Also Julius picking up on the Niko Style-esque movements of his opponent and mentioning it to Ohma was a nice detail.

Kengan Ashura - Absolutely absurd, all of it.

Uncle Khasim

I enjoyed this fight because I feel it was part of a larger setup. This entire series is all about references.

Misasa was a character from Ashura and was framed to be part of something bigger in Omega; all the bodyguards are watching him, he’s had a fair few lines for someone who isn’t a main character or an affiliated fighter in Ashura, and there just something about how he carried himself. Nitoku and Akoya, for example, haven’t had near as much presence.

Legitimately expecting the Worm guys that we’ve seen to have been Trained Wrong As A Joke so the real ones can get things done. Xia Ji just seems to be constantly getting clowned on all of the time.

Okubo has suffered enough, I have the feeling Ohma will lose in some plot-relevant way.

cut to Kazzy shouting “No Ohma! Don’t waste your flashback this early!”

I’d given up on Omega and clicked this on a whim. Why couldn’t the entire manga be this good?
