This plot is just bizarre. She must have amazing bulletproof polish - bare knuckle MMA fighters don't have nicely groomed hands and feet - they're working weapons.

Akita won and with a one shot? Heh, I knew my boy had in him to win against a first rounder.

And he still didn't reveal he knows how to use the liver punch. He might beat his second opponent with it.


Finally, karate kid is back. If he's in the tournament then a proper match with Akita is a given.

It amuses me that we have a manga from teh Author of Kakegurui and people are like "The plot is bizarre" and "the story is weak" I mean yeah...it's the Author of Kakegurui...what did you expect. It's like solo leveling, not a great plot, but it's got the ability to make you feel hype. Same thing with this author.

But I am glad they at least gave a reasonable reason for the win. A counter in an armature fight on someone trying to counter you? Yeah that is probably gonna drop someone.

This manga can be a Faustian bargain kind of story, and a real fun at that, but it got go more Baki (or Kengan Ashura).
And it also should have more eye candy. Bloody viollence on top of viollence is nothing without release

Noticing errors in pronouns. Dock your proofreaders pay.
Errors on the 2nd panel of page 2
Bottom of page 14
I edited them now. This was on my translator and me for forgetting chapter 1. Normally I do correct my translator’s translations while going through it. But didn’t notice these two pages. Nothing has been MTL, it’s just us losing interest with this series sadly.

Ohhh so that's why she's so interested in him. He's a fighting prodigy without even realizing it.

"Corrupted"
I guess that's right
He used to be a massive prick who looked down on everyone else less intelligent than him
Now he's still that, but also with a desire to beat people up and sexually assault the girl teaching him to fight

I figured this might happen cause you don't stop until the ref stops the fight. So is he gonna go for the extra punches for violence or more likely wuss out and think that's it and walk away.

Many Thanks for the new chapter @nakimov .
It's unfortunate to hear that you and your group are starting to lose interest in the series. You've done a great job with the series despite your errors.

Hey, Akita has developed a Backstep Counter! It was neat to see him improvise his Low Calf Kick wind-up into a feint that drew in his opponent for the rear hand straight counter, the very thing his opponent was looking to land on him to counter his Calf Kick (which is also a thing you learn day 1 in Muay Thai). Backstep countering is a very potent technique that is rarely used in MMA and Kickboxing, as well as it being an uncommon thing in Boxing.

I still think Akita would benefit from formally learning new techniques from an actual instructor, you can only go so far by improvisation.
