I see the argument for not bringing Jurota being he's probably not comfortable with an actual life-or-death battle and the three people assembled are vastly more used to this. Even Agito since he not only survived a hellish training experience, but before the kengan association reformed things he himself had a % chance to deliver a finishing blow to his opponents even after downing them. These guys are the killers but someone like Jurota is an Athlete.

Agito also probably volunteered too since he has a personal hatred of the worm

Should've also brought the doctor along to hang around by the door watching everything with a grenade in his hand.

Honestly that's a great point. Why the hell isn't the Doctor there? There is no throng of super important businessmen around as hostages, his virus payload is something that could be conceivably used in this situation. He is even a government agent and it was a faction in the government who organized the hit. If I had any trust in Sandro's writing left, I would have said that it's possible that he is hanging around and ready to butt in once Kuroki begins losing.

So someone finally just out right says it. Ohma mentions he didn't sense any malice from the Connector, but Mustache seems like a bad guy. Shen isn't very villainous for the main antagonist this arc. He's pretty calm and laid back for a guy this murderous, bloodthirsty terrorist organization somehow needs protect the world from. I wouldn't be surprised if by the end of all this he's back in part 3 in the stands with his drinking buddy or guest announcing.

Lol I guess that was a good way to end the fight early I guess.

Lt. Lizard

Ok, that was kinda hilarious. Both in the way it resolved and in how much of an outrageous blue-balling that resolution was. I guess the main purpose was to showcase that there are still some people that can somewhat fight against the Connector. And of course to show how much of a turncoat mustache Ohma is. Although I suspect he is more of a Hayami then Metsudo.

the political figures cowering in fear like that have left me uncertain if at this point Sandrovich is deliberately making this a meme that Shen is calm Yujiro

I 100% agree with whichever politician said "gently caress this tournament nonsense just kill the guy" although it's pretty obvious the story is going to disagree that this is objectively the correct move to make. Only better move would be hiring a sniper because there are plenty of windows right there.
I hate this idea that one guy is so powerful he rivals a modern military. Turn Shen into swiss cheese you have a room full of guys with guns. Worry about the remaining worms later

Armor, a knife which is basically a death flag in Kengan, and he pulled a gun.

Going on an entire spiel showing off your ultimate final impenetrable defence armor and ending it with "My preparations are flawless"... you can't job any harder than this.

It's perfect. the perfect thing to say

Akoya, you have been in a tournament that had Julius Reinhold and Wakatsuki Takeshi in it. I doubt that armor could handle Adam Dudley wailing on it, let alone Raian, The former Fang, Kuroki Gensai or either of those superhumans. You absolute fool. I'm glad you're being underwritten into becoming our next casualty. Shouldn't he have better reflexes for these kinds of situations?

I think they mentioned he was getting slower or generally shittier or something? We all lose those fortnite reflexes eventually...

there’s no way that armor doesn’t impede his speed, no mnatter how improved it’s “mobility” is. Or maybe it makes him faster? His preparations are flawless after all…
