I forgot that Sekingar was actually a character in the manga before this arc and now I'm re-reading it because I do not remember him being anything other than polite, genuine and generally just eager to help even if he can't blow up monsters like any of the A or S-rank heroes can. People keep mentioning it like they're shocked so now I need to go back through the manga again.

I feel like the entire saga of Genos failing over and over, and slowly improving and learning, is a lead-in to his finale where he wins against Metal Knight when he realizes he's internalized actual HEROICS from Saitama, and not just raw power and skill improvement. He's being prepared for an actual heroic situation and victory at the conclusion of his arc, instead of pure revenge and likely failure.

I agree but I feel there's a very important thing you people aren't seeing. He needs to be drawn in ONE style.

He will be drawn in ONE style when he has his introverted monologue during his 11th hour about the true nature of heroism and everything he has learned from Saitama over the whole comic. And then he will win a fight in a single

Metal Knight being the good one(even if he is kinda an rear end in a top hat) and Drive Knight being the real traitor would definitely be more interesting. Also Drive Knight vs Genos would be cool.

How dare all of you doubt Drive Knight, the Knight Who Drives. He is the ultimate form of the Kamen Rider, the pinnacle that Mumen Rider seeks to obtain. His hero quality is maximum.

great chapter. what's the deal with Drive Knight and Metal Knight. Their names are way too similar, is it an english translation thing? Metarunaito vs Kudō Kishi. Can anyone give a transliteration?

I'm not sure if Drive Knight is evil or playing another gambit move aiming for the greater outcome against the Monster Association. Or maybe he's just obsessed with gathering data and couldn't miss this chance of pushing the Hero's Association on bringing Blast out? Whatever it is, in this chapter we learned that he's one shifty rear end in a top hat and I love it.Suspicious Lump posted:great chapter. They're names in the same theme, modern english loanword vs old-timey japanese word. It's hard to adapt these details but still imo they should've changed one of the names a bit (like call Metal Chevalier or something) ZepiaEltnamOberon posted:Kishi means knight. Kishi is also how professional shogi players are called (different kanji though). I thought that was a pretty neat bit regarding Drive Knight's shogi moves and all!

Here's his chance to up his cyborg percentage! If Jet Nice Guy can do it, I don't see why he couldn't, too. It would almost certainly mean taking a step down in the Hero Association at this point, though, from an Executive to a C/B-ranker...

You could say Sekingar has only a flesh wound. So why does Drive knight want Watchdog man out of Q city. He was laying it on pretty thick on how unprotected the HQ is. Watchdog man is Blast. You can't tell because he's always drawn simplified and wears a dogsuit to hide his spiky hair.

To be fair, he still seems on par with the C-class guy whose only power was a poisoned knife, who is also dead last in the rankings, so really without that gimmick that guy wouldn't be a hero either.
