Going with shonen logic, the character that first says he's definitely going to win in cases like this tends to lose. Still team Rihito until the very end.

@LaserBeam You called the poison on his footnails a few weeks ago and I called the kicks with his footnails at the same time too. We had already discovered the Falcon's main fighting style since even before the match began, haha. Hopefully we can keep making these accurate asf predictions.

I'd say it should normally be against the rules but the implication seems to be that his toe now is permanently poisonous, like how Doctor Hanafusa in Kengan Asura was allowed to use blades becase technically they were made out of his own bones. Going by the commentator's words, though, he doesn't know about the poison so it's possible the amount of poison is so small that only a handful of people know about it.

On the other hand I think we also just saw why he's called "the Falcon", which was fairly cool.


Cool! Wakatsuki's a beast.
yeah i just noticed how when rihito breath he reminds me of that pic with wakatsuki

Poison is lame

Were purgatory a competition that allowed deaths Id okay with it, or if the falcon was going for a more assasim vibe a la Hanafusa, but just doing it for the sake of doing it, it takes a lot out of the fight.

Even with Falcon having a time limit, he was still way more agile than lihito and tanking hits was bound to cause more dmg, so both had a time limit, in a sense.

Cmon sandrovich, you had me liking falcon...

I too found the poison kinda ... overstretched but let us hope it will not be lethal but still from a competition that does not allow deaths well that is a bit stretched but i like falcon he kinda managed to do a life dream of a weeb and that is in succeding learning martial arts from animes shows and movies.

Well, you're right. You said that what if he had some kind of fungus in his footnails and I answered to you that maybe he could have a poisonous fungus. The word poison wasn't directly said, but it was implied if I recall well.

I think the poison's dose is too low for it to be lethal. It looks like his intention is only to make his Rihito dizzy in a way that can be mistaken with bloodloss (which he should also be suffering anyway by this point).

I also don't like that he's using poison, though. Hope Rihito kicks his ass.

It is stated the poison is non lethal, which makes it even lamer in my opinion.

I know that it is thematically fitting with Ninjas but this isnt a ninja manga.

Considering how low the dosage is, I'd say we will go one chaeter of rihito being fucked up but his superman constitution willl kick in

Me too i think it is not fair he has to rely on poison to win which is like cheating let's hope rihito will actually lose because if he do not i think
raian may check him again in wc to do some dick measurements lol

If it was leathal then that should have been a problem because there is no kill rule if the poison was strong enough to kill somebody then it would have
been an incosistency to their own rules but i must admit it was weird they allowed the dude to fight while knowing he coats his big toes with poison.

Yes it is not a ninja manga sure but the dude is a ninja weeb that learned by watching anime ninja shows lol

You might want to put that in a spoiler tag.

I've just read the translated chapter.
So far the two purgatory fighters that have fought haven't been weak per se but they've won in pretty "dirty" ways. Especially this Talon guy with the poison. I'm still pretty sure that's against the rules but he gets away with it thanks to it's small dosage.

However that Donaire guy looks cooler each new chapter and he gets some respect points for making that other idiot shut up.

Well now that I´ve calmed down my boiling fury at having Yukihira 2.0*, and actually read the chapter, I can honestly say I am glad with how Rihito fought.
Were it not for the poison, he would´ve destroyed an A-Lister from purgatory, which Kurechi said are all super strong guys.

And I also think the author will use both of these losses as a means to motivate the Kengan Fighters to finally unite, since both losses, for the Kengan side, are considered disonhorable (Ring out and Poison). If he does, its very fitting that we as readers are feeling the same as the characters, which is always a admirable thing for an author to actually pull off.

Especially since I thought that both losses actually did treat the losers fairly.

Carlos was a clear stand-in, powerlevel wise, to KAT Gaolong, at least i felt like it with him being able to switch styles and being said to be the one boxer who wasbetter in the Pound stuff (even if he fucking sucked) and Rihito´s showed a lot of improvement. We all know KAT Rihito would´ve been destroyed here.

THAT BEING SAID

I fucking hate this cliche of "oh hes strong but poison buh bye"

And I hate that Rihito was the one sacrificied for that. Sure he is still developing, but I would´ve hoped for Okubo to be the one to take a fall, if we needed our suspension of disbelief restored (IE Everyone thought Rihito and Okubo were guaranted wins).

So its a fairly mixed reaction chapter for me, which I think was what the author was going for.

Im gonna go make a call that, because of that feeling of "KENGAN WIN PLS", the next fighter is either gonna be Masaki, who people care nothing for*, Nitoku who´s a lot of people expect to lose and could maybe get a power up going like "Oh, it would be a perfect narrative if we can win now and start to turn the tables, I WANT TO MAKE THAT NARRATIVE COME TRUE", or Okubo, since we now know no one is safe and as such, even if we will really want a win out of him, we will be on the edge of our seats hoping for the win, but knowing he could actually lose.


*Not dissing on the character, but I think if we did a popularity pool for the kengan side he would be the last, and no one actually cares about MASAKI the person, just MASAKI the mystery (aka clone stuff). So that would be a perfect oportunity to have us rally behind him.


Overall I want to give this chapter a 9/10, but fuck you for making Rihito lose, -9/10
