Meh, feels like such a cheap way to create unnecessary conflict. Anyways, it’s already clear where this is going. Kenshin tears this guy apart but still gets choked out just to get trained by him to beat Aoba who’s getting trained by Orima. Spoiler: Kenshin KOs Aoba

Hmm ok now I'm interested, Kenshins fear of Aoba's grappling is getting to him more than he thinks and it's making him more reckless and sloppy.

Story wise there are two things a character can do to progress in a story, either stick to their guns and stay firm to their approach or they can make a significant change. If you want to be realistic, the best option in this situation is for Kenshin to change his approach. Sure he can stay true to his style but the idea that he'll never be brought down to the ground is arrogance that can be exploited and the fear of being brought down is a clear weakness. If he can't over come that fear, then he can forget about facing aoba let alone beating his current opponent.

This dumb mf Kenshin has the audacity to throw a punch, even if he wasn't going to connect it, and then get mad when he retaliates?
He wasn't even going to throw a punch, that's the exact pose guys always make at face offs, Not-Aoki is just a lunatic.

Aoba's style suffers way more from this than Kenshin's, every time he gets into a pinch he spams a bunch of triangle entries that burn energy for a high risk, low chance gamble. He only beat Kureishi because of his chin, Yamamoto was beating the shit out of him and only lost because of a brain fart.

This is why I really don’t like that tradition when it comes to standoff pictures. There have been several dudes who absolutely abuse it as an opportunity to flex because they know the other guy likely will not retaliate.

This feels like this was the issue before he fought Yamamoto, afterwards and when he sharpened his counter punching game not so much now.
