No, if you're stuck in a rear naked choke you can't bite your way out. But if someone has taken your back they can bite your neck easily Or if someone gets top position they'd look to try and bite the other guy while controlling them with their weight Biting is just another weapon for...

Could be that Reality Scans is making mistakes, wouldn't be the first time. He's not actually in it for the translation, he's a known scammer who rushes, doesn't care about quality, and who explicitly targets series that were already being worked on. I wish people would have higher expectations...

This guy does not have better all around skills, he should have gotten stood up for inactivity. He was a bad matchup for Aoba though but benefitted from a horrendous ref. Aoba does have bad fundamentals* but they weren't really what cost him this fight. *(In that his game is not really...

Kenshin isn't based on Kai Asakura, he's based on Tenshin Nasukawa, the kickboxer. And Kai Asakura isn't mainly a knee guy, he's always been very boxing heavy. Knees are a double edged sword against takedowns because if you time them wrong you can give up a takedown easily. Hachiya's issue was...

I'm pretty sure this has to be a violation of rule 1.8 right? 30 chapters held behind an external paywall? That's like three volumes worth. I'm not a mod, is there a mod here who can clarify why this doesn't break site rules?

Also it looks like his opponent threw his right straight inside of Aoba's left hook (though if so Aoba had only barely started to throw it), which is a very dangerous counter. I think Aoba's real mistake here is that he's got such an instinct for exploiting weakness that he can get tunnel...

Aoba probably didn't get a lot of stank on that high kick. He got the leg up there and knocked Hachiya over because he was off balance but Hachiya didn't get hurt and was basically immediately on the offensive as Aoba closed in. Also if Aoba actually was practicing that sequence (which the...

Because Hachiya was out of position and couldn't recover his stance before Aoba kicked him with what Hachiya's corner woman mentally refers to as a prepared (I.e. drilled) sequence. It isn't, Hachiya just made a mistake. He threw himself totally out of position with an overcommitted right...

I It was a lovely duck under, true, but the panel for the blast double was really cool.

Hachiya does the same outside slip of the right straight and counter against Tamamatsu. Aoba feeds him the same punch to counter, defends against the punch that he knows is coming and then hits him with a headkick while he's out of position and can't recover or follow up.

Hachiya has thrown himself completely out of position because he leaps in with his right hook which is why it takes longer for him to recover, Hachiya mentions this in the next chapter. Is it a common sequence? Of course not, but it's far from impossible or even implausible. Hachiya doesn't...

1. That's a short right hook. (Unless you mean what Aoba was throwing - yes that's a right straight not a jab, but he was clearly still baiting a specific reaction) 2. That timing is not unrealistic especially if he knows it is coming, 3. That high kick is not unrealistic at all

I love that knockdown actually, a reminder that even if a match seems to be simple tactics can shift it in favour of one fighter or another even on their opponents' home turf.

I think this is the angriest he's been since the Russian guy fight on the boat.
