i wish koga megamanned other fighting styles than the niko style because that could have some legs, i'm really liking him lately but don't care much for him using ohma's bullshit

Yeah it was sweet how in the earlier fights he was using wrestling stuff.

Like I guess this match is supposed to be "Setsuna vs Ohma" in a way but with the story being that Gaoh using Setsuna's poo poo actually ain't really helping it feels like there should be more of a twist with Koga.

It's a proxy fight between fighters who already fight as proxies for corporations! :psyduck:

Okay, somehow I didn't see Koga mega manning a Gaoh style move. That's a fun way for this fight to end.

I think the ending kinda saved the fight as a whole. It brought back Koga's Blue Mage/Megaman ability.

That was a good ending. But i doubt we'll see the Koga x Rihito fight now, especially considering how hosed Koga is.

This manga sure does love to gently caress up hands. Really makes me nauseous seeing pretzel fingers. Well, Koga better get to kicking.

As someone who suffered several hand injuries practising martial arts, I agree, they are loving horrible.

He is going to say goodbye to his good friends Yamashita Kazuo and What's his name, Then later we will find the field of bodies who pissed the connector off. The goodbyes will be pleasant of course.

I also feel like it's very easy to suffer permanent damage from injuries like that, though Kengan has magic "if you're not dead you can almost always be returned to perfect health" medicine.

Like I fell and bent back my big toe a few years ago and it became all black and blue. I went to an ortho doctor and didn't have any broken bones, and they said they said to just rest it and use a splint.

I did so and the swelling went down, but now it doesn't bend anymore at the middle joint (and also just kinda feels weird).

Koga had absolutely hosed up hands, so any other result would be bullshit, but it's nice to see a quick, clean and easy win for Lihito. Also we finally have an arc focusing on the Inside...Um, Yay?

There was a fight right? I went 192, fists about to hit faces, then 193 was Koga blocking a kick and then 9 panels later the fight was done.

Did I just try to read it from a website that skipped most of the fight or was that it?

It was a short fight because koga was all hosed up and as he said probably would have lost anyway

Yeah Koga basically pulled an Ohma from the Annihilation tournament where he won the penultimate fight but did it in such a hosed up state that he was pretty much done for anyway, with the primary difference being that Koga doesn't have a magic suicidal super mode to keep his body working enough to fight good.

The new and improved Ultra Instinct Lihito would have been a hard fight for him to begin with even if he didn't already turn his hands into macaroni noodles.

I may be a heathen, but I kinda want Okubo to win? I feel he has a huge gap between how strong he is supposed to be, vs. what he actually showed in fights. Plus he is a bro.

I like what Okubo does however he feels pretty bland after all the bullshit we have seen. Still very entertaining.

Would have helped if Purgatory wasn't a complete joke and Okubo fought the one guy who is a weapons specialist with a meme surgery.

Anytime Seki's fighting the manga is at it's best.

Yeah Seki looks good whether he's winning or losing because the man fights with conviction and remains true to his ideals and also his fighting style is tanking every hit and using wrestling moves instead of mashing together fantasy martial arts like the spiral screw hand jab or the double spiral screw hand jab or the flash step spiral screw hand jab from behind nothing personal kid.

Also the man knows how to work up the crowd + the readers with theatrics.

Seki rules.

The funnest and most endearing thing about this series is that you can have fights like this where two dudes are violently grinding each other into hamburger but you know that after the fight's over and the loser regains consciousness they're both going out for beers and karaoke.

Sandrovich forgot that Seki pretty much always uses [Wrecking Defense] as shown in his fight with Koizan. But it is a good thing he finally remembered that Okubo doesn't have a trump card so I'm excited to see how this [Golden Eight Seconds] pans out. Okubo has lacked a finisher since soccer kick isn't something he seems to enjoy since killing isn't his end goal and he has to massively hold back using it.
