Akoya isn't even in the top ten lol, and would have been a much more conventional and easier fight for Ohma than Cosmo lol. People are just salty that Cosmo had his number. Akoya was fast but he didn't have Foresight, and Cosmo was much more threatening with his submissions.

Excellent work, good to see more of this!

Leg kicks you can get used to they're just not fun.

Nice that Koga's finally got a W. Those kicks looked vicious, that other guy must have been tough to tank two. (This is what a liver shot looks like on the other guy IRL. It's devastating. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwGe1iZEHKs )

There were definitely moments where Ohma was an underdog in that the other guy was stronger, but he definitely started off as the more complete package and just kind of drilled through his fights until after Inaba. Koga's been an underdog in that we've seen his birth as a martial artist. He's...

Seems to be to the liver, looks like a snap kick maybe?

@diablossa there already is one, look up fist of the seeker.

I'm surprised so many people are acting like it's one big misunderstanding, Koga gave Ryuki every chance to explain himself and Ryuki basically acted as much like a psycho as possible.

Ryuki's pretty creepy even for a guy from the inside though. The only creepier one I can think of is Kiryu and he was absolutely bonkers.

@Ivondas Hopefully we'll be able to get them weekly from now on.

Lol, apparently this series rips off panels from Kengan. At least the author has good taste. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/532056156517171201/551530380725977121/5_Autophagy_Regulation.PNG...

@midarmour Yeah, full-contact karate people have used it, kickboxers have used it, Nak Muays have used it. I'm surprised that no Nak Muays have turned up so far, maybe the author is saving them for later. Also I agree that the upper body shot confuses me as well. It's possible it's a...

@MoarChamps The liver shot. It's connected to the vagus nerve and is very sensitive to pain. A punch to the jaw can send you to sleep, a punch to the liver can send you to hell. There are six or so major weak spots on the human body. The eyes, the jaw, the throat, the solar plexus, the groin...

Good chapter, probably the best examination of groundwork we've had in the series so far. I hope it keeps up and we get to the level we had in Tekken-den Tough where it was like 40-60% groundwork. This is a BJJ manga after all.

Come on Tommy, come on son. Come on Tommy, take him out in one.

Saw that swordpoint in a karate class once, it's a desperation move because you can't actually train using it on other people, unlike most karate moves.

@Amegashi The one problem with that is all of that hinges on Dae-Gak running Fight Class 3 (or whatever role he serves in it) for the past seven years at least as opposed to beginning after kidnapping the sister *and* the masters knowing about it *and* them not just getting iced by Dae-Gak...

@Amegashi I think the thing is, he had no reason to know he had to know martial arts. It's not like Abyss Rage where the protagonist has no other way of revenge but learning martial arts, or Baki where the protagonist has already had a massive training in martial arts before the need for revenge...

@Amegashi Judging from his dad's reaction, I'm guessing Ji-Tae was just a pussy growing up (in fairness, as an eight year old or whatever) so his dad just gave up on ever training him and went for his sister instead. Either that or his sister got genes he didn't. One of my pet theories is that...

@Amegashi The mother had kids with another master? Who? Also, no, he got demolished by a judo throw onto concrete. Judo's one of the few martial arts his natural abilities don't counter. His super dynamic vision helps avoid blows, his super joints help him break out of submissions, but...
