How exactly are you supposed to knockout a robot or make it tap-out? Since...you know...it has a metal body and probably doesn't feel pain. And the police chick even said her fighting style was about leaving your opponent relatively undamaged.

Thanks for the chapter btw

@DragonTiger Better Tekken than Mortal Kombat, lol. Though I must remind you that Rui is quite fond of this franchise and even got involved during Tekken 5. You may have seen Eddy Gourdo-like girl in this manga before.

@SuperOniichan I think fighting can be elegant in its brutality. Like watching a hawk snatch a fish or a fox pounce on a rabbit. Jon Jones' meme shit reaches beauty sometimes too.

To paraphrase another silly fighting manga: Strong is Beautiful

@EcchiT Well, as people say in my country, there is no dispute about tastes, but personally I think that elegance depends on a sense of the borders. You wouldn't call porn erotic, for example? That is, sometimes I get the feeling that I do not see a cool fight between strong women, but an idealized violence against a woman as a fetish. But again, I'm only talking about my personal associations and I'm not trying to criticize or scold anyone.

Dorothea paid the full price for her arrogance and overconfidence, but had this been a tourney with rules I'd award victory to her simply because she showed actual skill. The way Mao Mao "fought" is something you'd see in an alley brawl...

Still, what the heck is it with that robot thing? I mean , this tournament is not meant to be taken seriously (the whole manga is not meant to be taken seriously tbh :D) but... a robot? Seriously? 😨

@pihip As ironic as it may sound, the robot is far from the funniest WTF in this pair of volumes. Although less "fantastic".

I assume the robot has a sort of "fairness" function built in. Since the CEO outright said it won't fight stronger than a human, maybe it has sensors built in that detect how much of a beating it takes until it shuts down. After all the goal of this particular PR stunt seems to be to have a robot functioning within the context of martial arts, and having a machine with no limits steamroll everyone would be a bummer.

Page 7... the kanji used wasn't for dictionary or encyclopedia, but if you're going for an indirect translation, "a walking encyclopedia" sounds more like what you meant than dictionary?

@pihip guess you've never seen a lethwei fight before then 😏 if it was a tourney with MMA rules, then sure Dorothea would have had the advantage, but with lethwei or vale tudo rules, she gets fucked over 😂
Fancy techniques don't mean diddly-squat if you can't actually finish a fight. If she was that skilled she wouldn't have got caught 😂
