Togo was trying to become the sword itself, he was represented the obsession/madness to the story, while Jinsuke was representative of hard work (as of now, since he already avenged his father,) just like their fighting style, these two clearly have different theme.
Imagine Jinsuke doing Iaido with Togo

Kinda looking grim, but I still hope the kid wins.
Thanks for the chapter!

I mean, at least some of the later fights won't be quite as predictable in their outcome as these last few. I'm choosing to see this all as setup. A very long setup I'm being patient about by grasping onto the belief that it'll be worth it. Surely I won't be disappointed again...

If Inshun wins it would be cool if he lost the use of his arm, and has a crisis of faith or something like that. Would be interesting, and lets us keep a spear user in the running. I do like Iaido though.

I like that effort might be winning, but why is it another "katana dude"... Let the interesting weapon users stay!
People don't see fighting style, or weapon choice. etc., they only see "Old" or "Young". Weird how there are some who act like not a single old guy has won, despite Hanzo BTFOing Sasaki.

?
fuma kotaro (chain and shuriken) killed katana gramps

hanzo (spear) beat sasaki (whip sword)

yasuke (staff and shield) killed living sword

literally only one non-sword user died: honda tadakatsu in the first fight

I do feel like later fights could have more variety if hino choko sticks with unarmed fighting instead of switching to swordsmanship, but interesting weapons users are overall clearly staying.

and this round is still undecided

Man so uninteresting I just wish to know what's time cutter gimmick. If it's a delayed vacuum blade or a precise attack or something.
as far as i understood (and i may be wrong here) Time-Cutter is meant to be a cut so fast no normal person can react fast enough to block or parry it before it conects. Jinsuke himself states that he designed this technique to "cut between mere moments, gaps on the opponents guard and attention", hence the name of the attack

It has been answered already, why do people feel the need to correct all over again. Probably for upvote.
