Off topic...
Chinese sword, power of kendo, maneuverability of Fencing? Curious, what type of Wushu do you study?

I think its close to the power of kendo but the swords are built different. I at least don't have the same slashing power with the Chinese sword as when I hold a katana . Same with the speed of Fencing, sure I can thrust but not nearly as quickly since most Chinese swords are heavier and shorter. It's a nice a in between though.

Granted I feel safest with a spear/staff (If we're talking about non-modern day warfare). I'll take on all of you sword users. jkjk, don't want to get 0wned.

On topic, thanks for the play styles Sai. Also, PoT defies the laws of physics and since Atobe is a genius. He could make fencing a viable tennis skill set.

I really want to see Sanada using kendo fight Atobe using fencing!

Well by power of Kendo, you can get close to the same pure force, but not the slicing ability. I studied Choy Lee Fut for about 7-8 years. The thing about the Dahn Dao is that it is highly manuverable while still maintaining a good deal of slicing ability due to the thinness of the blade.

Personally I'm a Guan Dao user ^^ I have the most proficiency with that. I jsut happen to know Dahn Dao also.

Oh this is gonna be hilarious - my pet can do this this and this!
Oshitari: Oh yeah? My pet can do somersaults! And handstands! (Gakuto xD)

Can't wait for the Oshitari cousins one. That should be hilarious.

Vol. 3 - Oshitari Cousins

Ah, so your a mixer. I just studied norther styles that was hard enough for me. Yeah, spears FTW for those that don't know what a Guan Dao is.

On topic...

Lolz on the Oshitari Cousins...honestly I didn't think they were popular enough to be #3 in the running to get a Pair Puri...but I'm still thankful.

Kenya isn't really that popular, but Oshitari is one of the most popular characters in the whole series. He's always in the Top 10 in the popularity polls.

Hahaha, I loved that strip.
"MY PET IS BETTER THAN YOURS."*talking about Gakuto*
I laughed so much...
Who do you guys think is stronger? Oshitari or Kenya?

Well, Oshitari is a genius and the second strongest player on Hyoutei, while Kenya is apparently the weakest named character on Shitenhouji.

Really? He put up quite a fight vs Goddamn Shiraishi.

I think he could beat the gay pair, gin, and Zaizen.

Would definitely lose vs Chitose and Kintarou though, just like he lost vs Shiraishi.

I can't find it on the internet haha


I personally think Oshitari is better - just the variety he has, i cant even name half his special shots, like DFDR, SSAS, FAS, F+D etc. Kenya on the other hand, has proven he's just fast and got 3 points off Shiraishi. Woohoo!! - Hang on did Fuji get even three points in the first few games v Shiraishi?

Whether or not he could beat Zaizen is a different matter - we have absolutely no idea what Zaizen can actually do.

Well, he's weaker than Zaizen. That's why he was the one chosen to sit out against Tezuka/Inui, and not Zaizen. Gin is definitely stronger, too.

He's probably better than the Gay Pair individually, but they're better in doubles.

Hmm...I don't know if having him sit out made him weaker...but I remember their coach saying something to Kenya about, "don't slow Zaizen down...."

Yeah, he did say that. It seemed to me like Kenya was on the weaker side. As far as we know he's just a faster Kamio.

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

Yeah. Zaizen is weaker than Chitose to the point where he can't even do anything but watch the match, and yet is stronger than Kenya, who scored 3 points in a 7 point match vs a guy who owned Kantou Fuji to a point that no one thought it was even possible.

So Kenya is stronger than Kantou Fuji, who was just barely above Kantou Kirihara...

So Kenya should be more or less equal to Krauser.

Scoring three points doesn't really tell us much, though. I mean, anyone can win three rallies. We don't even know if Shiraishi was going at 100%. I don't think that really proves that he is stronger than Fuji at the Kantou level, really.

Fuji Kantou level couldn't score at all against Shiraishi, until he became Nationals Fuji.

So...yeah, 3 points count.

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Well, you're assuming that Shiraishi was going at 100% against Kenya. We didn't see the match, so there's no way of knowing if he was serious, or if he was just trying to have a fun match, knowing that there's no way he would lose.

 

[Fayte]

Shiraishi always goes 100%. That's what it means to be the "Bible" of Shitenhouji. He just has a very calm spirit even when he is serious. It's his personality.

It's an interesting fact that both of Oshitaris play doubles once. Yuushi got a Gakuto, who was a trouble and they even lose to Momo/Eiji

Kenya and Zaizen are Shiten Doubles 1, so they are definitely stronger than GayPair in D2 We can't say that Kenya is weak in doubles... Zaizen is stronger, but not so much of the gap between Yuushi and Gakuto.

Kenya lose to Kura 7-3, while Yuushi and Atobe is 6-4 and it takes a long time
(I know it's ichinen but then you know Konomi likes to change the plot, as he made Yuushi came to Hyotei in his first year, not second year as previously stated)

Yeah but you can't compare a 7 point tiebreak with a 6 game set.

Order means nothing in PoT...they had Sanada and Tezuka in S3 but Nio and Fuji in S1?

It's just random is all...
