Well, I guess Ed kept his promise to Mr. Goat, Alan secured the victory.

With Murdercop coming up next, it could be 2 wins in a row for purgatory.

Wasn't Medel described as "Gensai-level" only in side-material and even that in a context of "I wanted to make Medel a Gensai-level boxer, but he turned out too strong in a boring way so I scrapped the concept and went with a dude who learned Capoeira from podcast?" I'm pretty sure he doesn't count.

He was technically the Gensai of boxing. Too strong to face any challenge there.
People take Ohma's quote ' so strong he was lonely, I know somebody like that' and reference it, while ignoring that right afterwards, he says ;Is he on Kuroki's level? Let's see what he is made of'.

In other words, people can be the Kuroki Gensai's of their respective field. It's like the power level measurement in the Kenganverse.

You know, that's a good point, since they've made it Kazzy's thing to be The Guy Who Scouts Top Tier Fighters and keeps a rolodex of them. "This guy is a champion in one of the largest underground leagues in the world and has fought hundreds of matches and also went fist to fist with Gensai" should definitely put Rolon on his radar.

It' because everyone referred to him as Lolong before and it did not click.

So I'm 100% down for Chiba creating his own variant of formless but it's not a technique the same way Gaolang's flash jabs or Okubo's tackle are techniques. It's a mindset where Agito leverages his years of martial arts expertise and the many techniques he's acquired to adapt on the fly to his opponent. Chiba ironically already was doing this even in his first fight against Sen but made a bad call when switching to Aikido.

So I like the idea that he would try and refine his choice of techniques by becoming a better martial artist and learning not to just string together moves but create a gameplan against his opponent by doing so. You know, "becoming" a better martial artist in not just form but mind.

Then Sandro had him swinging his loving shoulders because that's the only way the reader would know it's formless in the first place and I am beating a dead horse when I say I hate that formless got devalued to just a shoulder shimmy. Fusion is also an interesting idea, could have been a unique gimmick of Chiba because of his career choice and history, merging roles together to create composite personas and subsequently composite moves. But it's all wasted in a throwaway fight when it should have had as much time as a round 2 kengan fight. Instead he literally eats poo poo in the same amount of time he lost to Sen.


Formeless is a technique as much as copying poo poo instantly is a tecnique, which you can learn from the Kures apparently

No the Guy who invented BJJ stole from the Kure clan and made improvements, and I guess his daughter or something shagged the Kure guy.

Also Koga using Niko style is fine, his whole thing is he has the ultra instinct eyes and has been learning from literally EVERYONE else on the cast.


Maybe, but it'[s a bit annoying. Learning from so many teachers and the moment grappling, ground game, throw etc comes up, we do not get a flashback to say Kureishi and thinking of fellow student cosmo. We are back to Niko style swallowing nearly everything. At least it's unlikely he will use removal or advance (for now)

The idea of this moveis fine, but it really should be something only Rihito could pull off. It's stupid if basically anybody can just learn the Niko style and get to crush bones.
