Really curious whether the Fang is supposed to be using the royal ‘we’ (which doesn’t seem to fit with the personality he’s displayed so far) or referring to his group all the time. Anyway, go team Gaolang.

The CEOs are a pretty interesting and diverse bunch aside from their relationships with the fighters, too. You’ve got the scheming old guard (the Chairman, Nogi, scarred power company guy), ambitious youngbloods (crazy heavy industries lady, Cosmo’s boss), family heirs in over their heads (Wakatsuki’s boss, the lady who bet everything on Ohma), heads of state, shell company figureheads, and shadowy puppetmasters. And Kenny.

Kanos posted:For me, one of the things this manga is best at is how attacks line up with the fighters getting hurt. Rihito ripping part of your skin off is treated as a big deal. Gigantic hits like Akoya landed on Imai had an obvious toll and added to the tension of the fight. Muteba vs the crazy dude was a cringe-inducing nightmare fight. Even Jun soaking up punishment and fighting through isn't treated as him shrugging it off, he's obviously suffering, he's just bearing it. Agreed. The Muteba fight in particular made it clear that ‘feels no pain’ is a very different thing from ‘takes no damage’. We’re still nowhere near Baki levels of physiological nonsense, though, and I really hope it stays that way.

Kanos posted:From completely different angles, too. "Techniques are required for the weak to defeat the strong" leads to both "Therefore I'll come up with the best techniques to defeat anyone" and "Therefore I'll become so unbelievably strong that I simply don't need techniques".

Sindai posted:If Julius wasn't Toyo Power's guy I'd definitely expect Wakatsuki to win since it feels like he keeps being built up as the biggest physical freak in the whole world. Instead I'm guessing it's a really close fight he barely loses. Agree on on the close fight, but I think Wakatsuki pulls it out in the end. Julius, like Jun, seems completely invested in his fighting style, to the point that he’d rather lose ‘his way’ than adapt to win. OTOH, he didn’t seem to have a problem with completely sidestepping Sawada, and who knows what other tricks old man Toyo has up his sleeve?

One one hand, the ref hasn’t declared a winner yet. On the other hand, Muteba hasn’t nutted yet. Compelling arguments on both sides.

JosephWongKS posted:"Dying brother" and "hometown village and beloved younger brothers under threat of eviction" flashbacks are very potent weapons. Saw Paing totally wasted these flashbacks by having them before the fight even began. Saw Paing doesn't have the most... let's say 'nuanced' understanding of time, place, and manner. Time: Now Place: Here Manner: LOOOUUUD!!!!!

My guess was wrong last time and I hope it's wrong again, because if it's right get ready for another round's worth of a guy way less interesting than Saw Paing.

Also, is anyone else curious as to how the Village of the Dawn got involved with the Kengan Association to begin with? Compared to not-Panasonic, not-Kinokuniya, and not-McDonalds, the Bumfuck, Kyushu Kiwanis Club seems a bit out of place, unless it's another shell corporation like Rihito Inc.

OK manga, you've got another chance to convince me that murdering yakuza in your spare time is a bad thing, and that I shouldn't be rooting for Bando. Not a good chance, mind you, but another chance.
