Still pretty funny how the secretary switchup fuckin' worked and didn't backfire over the course of, what, 2 years?

There apparently never being a moment like this where they realized something was up for 2 full years might be more implausible than the body double cloning stuff.

A couple weeks or months, maybe, yeah, but two years is a long time for no one to ever ask the normal secretary a question that only the double would have been present to know the answer to.

gently caress it, I'll take a pity victory for the Worm even though it's information that they should already have known through Xia but whatever :shrugs:. Also if the next chapter isn't Kazzy immediately recognizing the connector as at least a badass fighter I will have strong opinions about how nerfed he got over the course of Omega.

I do appreciate how reasonable the Worm leadership is.

"I've got some questions about this information."

"Forget you ever learned that, or I'll kill you."

"Already forgotten!"

"Excellent, glad we had this discussion."

i'm not sure what information was leaked, even. it was mostly stuff about the worm since the kengan side weren't really doing anything secretive. oh no, the worm learned what we know about the worm. that's not great but it isn't a disaster either.

Clearly the secretary thing is meant to highlight how capitalist elite consider even their close subordinates as barely human. If the secretary didn't go an extra mile and proactively admitted she doesn't know something she should have (which, in most instances would result in her losing her job), Nogi would have no idea, because his only interaction with her is ordering her around. :v:

New chapter, feels very much like classic Kengan Ashura fights, YEAAAAAAHHHHHH

Yeah, so far it's a solid, down-to-earth match between two equal fighters, without any clear idea who will win due to plot and no magic martial arts bullshit. Kengan Omega didn't have a fight like this in quite a while. Also Kazzy is doing what he does best - obliviously socializing with enemy big-shot who will probably end up either respecting him, or becomes his friend. :allears:

You jinxed it. Next chapter Saw Paing will reveal he has had his entire skeleton replaced with adamantium.

Yeah, that was pretty cool conclusion.

The amount of damage Saw Paing took is significant. I am going to die laughing if he loses to Rihito because of it.

It's funny cause during his fight with Karo he was actually going through a ton of different possible moves to use.

The point in the fight where I literally was fist bumping the air reminded me of why I got into Kengan in the first place. This fight is good by Omega standards but also good as a whole. Sorry (not sorry) Cosmo, you had to be sacrificed at the altar of Saw Paing because even Seki recognizes he's a real one.

It could use less audience commentary/interruptions, but it was a good fight. I don't know if the next ones will be as good as this one though, since they aren't between 2 long estabilished characters.

The Hammer of Burma is so versatile, you can use it to bludgeon your enemy into submission, you can use it as a counter to your enemy hitting your face, and you can even use it to break free of grappling techniques.
