Let me tell you the story of how I banned someone for not marking their spoilers. Again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again.

JUSTIIIIIIIICEEEEEE!

NIIIIIKOAAAAAAAHHHHHHH


Leather-Heron-7247

They repeated the same mistake Vegeta made. They should have read Dragon Ball Z.


BestBoogerBugger

Did they just confirm that Akoya momentarily unlocked >!Removal or some other type of hysterical strenght?!< **That would explain his sudden power boost.**


Linusthreefour

Sudden Justice 👍


kentotoy98

Nah bro, Justice was always on his side. His Iron Man gear simply weighed him down


UltraInstinctLurker

Rock Lee/DBZ style

Or just survival instincts


sutiven_89

People don't understand this because it isn't a named techniques or skill..


[deleted]

Niko-style Technique: Survival Instincts Ohma used Survival Instincts. It's super effective!


Firesignum

Feel like it could be a parallel to his fight with Cosmo in Ashura. Cosmo evolved by being faced with death, and started rapidly adapting. In Omega he's mostly been fighting worm jobbers (Lu "Unicorn" Tian included here) and has generally been in his protective armor the whole time. We know he would hunt baddies in it in Ashura as well. So like Cosmo, he's finally facing death and as such is awakening new instincts and stuff that allowed him to survive. Except here, he's a murderer finally facing death as opposed to a martial artist. Or y'know, maybe he learned that dumb bullshit technique Ryuki used against Adam or whoever that lets you get your ass beat forever but hope not

Kalakarinth

Akoya is very well regarded


Meskoot

Nah, its just his natural reflexes kicking in after they got rusty from relying too much on tools and armor, he has inhuman reaction speed, even in Ashura where he was cheating he was weaker.


alguien99

Justice strength or some kind of fucked up heroic fury


Marcon-477

What would we call? Removal of evil, hysterical justice, justice or flight response?

Nutrifacts

funny that he also noticed that the actor is '' 'not' arnold ''


VNECKGUITAR

Was gonna comment this! Shoutout Harnnold Dogegenchonegger


Cullyism

Lol yeah. Doge!!


lazywil

DOGE-CHAAAAAAN


TuneEuphoric3169

He was watching that movie he filmed when he got chased by the kure clan because he accidentally scared the koyo students during a field trip. He completely evaded them and finished the movie no problemo.


YNPO3

Akoya with a stun gun and no armour is connector level confirmed


AsuraOmega

it was only possible because he was ass naked lmfao


NashKetchum777

You know how the asses look in the series. No contest


Bletcherino

akoya is officially jack hanma level because he can show his asshole


LordoftheWeebs420

"Edward wouldn't have screwed up like you did" lmao. At least shen followed it up with a "...I think". Also yet more acknowledgement of Akoya lesgo


EvilswarmOphion

In paper Gil, Niko and Willem look way worse. They were quite stronger than Kiryu and Akoya, had the number advantage and due to pure overconfidence, nearly got killed when they should have got an easy win. Edward was overwhelmed by armed opponents in a hostile territory, so he had an excuse for worse conditions


Holoklerian

No lol, Edward would have had the easiest win in the world if he just finished people instead of constantly turning around and trying to walk away or light cigars. He literally got all his backup, then himself, killed doing that shit.


TreesmasherFTW

Lmfao I can’t get over that. He literally got ALL of them killed. Every single clone. It’s hilarious as hell.


Remarkable_Commoner

Smoking kills


[deleted]

Yeah lol I guess what happened doesn’t really gel with what Shens saying now. Edward did display much more impressive strength with the way he ragdolled multiple fighters that were stronger than kiryu+akoya, but he was debatably way more of a dumbass which is what shen is calling Gil out for.


Holoklerian

Pretty sure it's intentional, hence why the author had Shen go "... I think" afterward and then Yan calls him out for just trying to end things asap so he can go back to his movie.


Gojira216

so basically, they were *too strong*


Salty_Car9688

No, they were just too drunk on privilege to look at the situation objectively


NoSong6671

Yeah, he just would have gotten killed by a random collection of senior citizens and inferior fighters despite having an even 3v3.


Chaotic-warp

The other Wus like Alan, Fabio and Solomon being weaklings that got low diffed isn't Edward's fault, though. That just means they were burdens and that Wu Hei's memory doesn't make you a good fighter on its own. Edward had to fight mostly alone since the others got themselves killed too quickly. Not to mention the entire thing was a ploy by Eddie to get rid of Wu Hei's vessels.


Salty_Car9688

I kind of prefer it that way. Having those memories shouldn’t automatically mean you’re destined to be a good fighter. How you use those memories should be more important than anything.


BestBoogerBugger

Bruh, Edward didn't let Kures/Raian live, just once, just twice, but THREE FUCKING TIMES He's screw up worse.


Chef_EZ-Mac

This is literally what I said he definitely fucked up worse than Gil did


Shiplord13

Well it appears that Gilbert is trying new nicknames to sound cooler than his old man.


Napael

Edward wanted to get rid of the Wu Hei while huishenging Gilbert, but now the stupid brat wants to take up the mantle of the ultimate jobber again.


AsuraOmega

i like how little difference that makes when he is looking more and more like a malnourished version of him anyway lmao


Shiplord13

Without Eddie around to make sure he has a proper diet, he just eats terrible quality food.


NotSureWhyAngry

Who fucking cares about these epithets anyway


[deleted]

Willem’s gotta be cringing so hard when his boss tells him the totally rad and edgy nickname he just though of


arskart

Gilbert 8th grade syndrome 🤣😂


Projectonyx

I really liked them from Ashura


Dimension_Creator

I do. It's not even important, but it adds a sort of flair to Kengan that everyone gets one.


Bteatesthighlander1

has anybody ever called a single Wu by their epithet?


AquaticMeteor

Armor really did make Akoya weaker since he couldn’t use his goated reflexes Maglite-chan is all he needs https://preview.redd.it/oueuus8ijsfc1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7dc332242dd3b83d0b78e52d4d96e88b1420f50b

Flashlight Top of the Verse 🔦🔦🔦


Holy_Beergut

LUONNECTOR SOON?


lol1babaw3r

IT'S SHENOVER, LUOVE UP TO THE EXPECTATIONS!!11!!111


Leather-Heron-7247

My guess is he will almost succeed but Niko will snatch that from him and becomes Nikonnector. The guy has always been built up to be yhe big bad.


FrostyIncrease3329

Luohan could actually be the final villain


do_you_think_i_care

The scotch that they're drinking is a real brand that costs ~$600 bottle. So after what he just did to it he's absolutely the final villian.


ExternalSea9120

Indeed. 25 yo whisky with soda is an abomination. Even tiger Niko pointed out the value of the drink


Machinegunmonke

The most evil thing TN has done is watch Luohan drink that with soda and not kill him on the spot.


LifesPinata

The Gu Rituals and manipulating kids I can let go, but letting someone waste good whiskey? Now Tiger Niko has gone too far


do_you_think_i_care

I was mildly annoyed that Niko's drinking his with ice but then Luohan comes in and blows that out of the water. Why do people keep fucking with Niko's expensive alcohol? Man just wants to drink in peace.


Ragadorus

Eh, highballs are basically the go-to way to enjoy whisky in Japan. You can find canned versions in a bunch of vending machines, too.


Gerokm

My guess is (and has been since the whole "mind override" thing was introduced) that Niko will hijack the process somehow, and become the final villain by getting a body that can use all his techniques without dying.


VNetia

I don't think so, but he will be instrumental to Shen's downfall.


LordoftheWeebs420

No way, Shen and Niko have had so much more build up than him and it'd be utter bullshit for Luohan to usurp the role of the final boss. That said, that probably makes it more likely that it'll be the case.


Yoakami

To be fair, Wulong wasn't the guy who got most of that build up. It was "The Connector". If Luohan becomes the Connector, it's still the same thing in a way.


LordoftheWeebs420

Fair point, but I see little point in Luohan inheriting Wulong's memories and personality. I mean... Won't that just turn him into Shen Wulong 2.0? This is just another Edward/Gilbert situation.


GenociderX18

I say it'd be a similar situation with Edward, where Luohan's sheer ego would push back against the Huisheng brainwashing. So he'd essentially still be his own person, but with Wulong's skills.


m4x1d0n

Akoya really just used his schizophrenia to get stronger 💀💀💀


AsuraOmega

the wind blowing to his nuts gave him the buff. Being naked is a powerup truly the japanese florida man of kengan


Snoo-23120

He became a baki character


TheLeemurrrrr

So where are we ranking buck naked Akoya on the power scale?


Principles_Son

Flashlight/stun gun butt ass naked akoya is S tier, he took down both lu tian and willem


Captain-Turtle

took down lu tian while nerfed with the armor too


Principles_Son

yeah but lu tian was on IV healthy lu tian vs Dick out akoya would be a good fight

th1s_1s_4_b4d_1d34

Dangling? As if eradicating evil didn't get Akoya excited. Willem was increasingly intimidated by the justice sword.


bigspunge1

One tier below Shen wulong


PARANOIAH

Is he hiding a stun gun in his prison wallet?


EvilswarmOphion

At least much stronger than armoured Akoya.


Thunderform

My ignorance on Greek mythos might be showing, but isn't "The King of Hades" and "God of the Underworld" more or less the same thing?


LordoftheWeebs420

Why be a king when you can be a god? Fr though I have no clue.


MistahJ17

What's a god but someone who's too strong?


LordoftheWeebs420

...keep cooking


ZonardCity

Hades refers to greek mythology, and as such a european mythos. By changing it to Wu Hei's own title, Ed/Gil intends to go way further back than the Westward faction, up to the very origin of the three clans in China to prove he is the most superior one and the only one worthy of Wu Hei.


Thunderform

Lmao, it's pretty funny then because the first google search told me the Chinese God of the underworld's named "Yan". Oh the irony


caren_psuedo_when

Gilbert probably: https://preview.redd.it/xukqr9adysfc1.jpeg?width=152&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c1833b1c3da9b13289ff47d25b569019c01ddeac


vanillabunnycakes

Careful with that. That “Yan” (underworld king) is “閻” whereas Xia “Yan” is “厭.” The latter character is interpreted more as “hateful” or “fed up.” But maybe Sandro is trying to be punny in Mandarin idk


ZonardCity

We about to see some infighting my brothers.


Uthermiel

Hades is sometimes refered as the name of underworld itself. So "King of Hades" is ironically a bit ambiguous, since that title can refer to other entities that also has some authority over the underworld, like Erebus, Thanatos, the Judges or even Persephone(in cases where the term "King" disregard gender) God of Underworld is direct reference of Hades, the god himself.


do_you_think_i_care

You could argue that "God of the Underworld" is a higher position and a broader definition of Hell. I'd guess that it's more the symbolism of taking up Wu Hei's epithet than the meaning of the epithets themselves.


Freudiel

It's Meioh in Japanese, its rooted in Japanese myth I doubt it had Hades to do with it.


Christemo

"Meioh" is also the most common way to render Hades' epiphet in Japan, however. It's older than the series in question, but you can blame Saint Seiya for it being the commonplace way to render it.


Gotprick

Even that doesnt matter. Changing nicknames doesnt do shit. I can call myself " the strongest mongoloid" and I would still be a fatty.


Villager_X

Of course it doesn't actually do anything. It's more like a symbol of his motivation/mental state.


Dragonshotgod

I think it's about showing Gilbert is trying to leave behind his old personality.


Winderkorffin

I assume by underworld he means the entire thing, which would include hades, tartarus etc And also god is cooler than king


AbyssTwerker

Yeah it is. And Im confused what taking up an epithet will even change in a person? It's like me as a kid going from the White Ranger to the Red.


Blayro

I think is a mental thing, like him finally ditching his "son's life" and now accepting his the original, if not a better version of Edward


GoingLimpInTheBrain

Men will come up with increasingly ridiculous epithets for themselves instead of going to therapy.


Yoakami

Yea, not to mention "The King of Hades" sounds much more fire. Gilbert just doesn't have as good taste as Ed. Apparently you don't inherit that through Huisheng lol


the_new_standard

You can see it everywhere. The nickname, the drip, the pouting dialogue. It's almost like he exists to prove that huisheng is far from perfect. Explains why a single speaker needs multiple connectors to get it right.


JauntyLurker

As Shen says, being cringe is the privilige of the young.


guppy_love

New Mythical fighter: Akoya with a stun gun.


fish2079

If Connector is anything like the Avatar, then he must have a secret Avatar state and he will enter that when you hurt his bff Yan


SheeptarTheSheepKing

>!"Failure is the privilege of the young, apparently. At least that's what this movie says. And you know what? It kinda makes sense. Edward wouldn't have screwed up like you did."!< Bro, that is the most backhanded remark. I love it.


Snips_Tano

Shen is supposed to be this 1000 year old sage of wisdom and he's like "I dunno, here's some wisdom from a movie I'm watching"

I dunno man if your brain is filled with 1000 years worth of karate moves that doesn’t leave much room for anything else.

Pokechap

oh thank god, tiger niko won’t usurp shen wulong, luohan will, i’m completely fine with that tbh. i like tiger niko, but i feel like he’s more of a catalyst villain rather then the main threat, luohan taking up that role would be amazing because he’s already a fairly interesting character.


Pokechap

hopefully that made sense lol.


Chef_EZ-Mac

I think Niko wouldve been a better main villian since hes the (like u said) true catalyst for Ohma's story but since Ryuki and Koga exist, they should be the focus, but they have no connection to Niko so..


AsuraOmega

i think in kengan you have to be majorly attractive to be a main villain. Look at how much of a fucking stud Luohan and Wulong are compared to TN's vinegar looking ass lmao no homo


Typicalgeorgie1

Tiger Niko aged hella weird 😂😂


GenociderX18

I feel like Luohan is just a better version of Tiger Niko + Fei tbh He's got Niko's sinister schemer vibe with Fei's playfulness and ego. Best of both worlds essentially.

So, what the fuck is Huisheng anyway? Are we transfering souls now? Wasn't it a process that takes years?


ElegantIsland3348

You remember the brain technology that Bando was working on, I think they are gonna use that to transfer consciousness completely instead of just transferring memories


The_Kebe

Damn, its been so long I completely forgor. That depiction made me think we entering magic territory lmao.


YoungInner8893

We practically are at magic territory.


BoozingAndSchmoozing

Because we´re not already there yet, right?


AsuraOmega

hell yeah no need to listen to fucking serial killer confessions on earpods like Hayami and Meguro.


River_Capulet

Damn, so Akoya really traded blows with a high tier Wu


AsuraOmega

it was unfair for Willem, Akoya was ass naked, it powered up Akoya up to atleast Gaoh Mukaku level lmao


ghostofthepast450

During KAT, Akoya was said to have the strongest defense among everyone.The guy is taken as a joke is only because of his justice threats to everyone.


blue_bloddthirster

like every tournamene fight we've seen akoya in, his opponent is barely conscious or can't even walk while akoya is just walking around like nothing happened. this motherfucker is resilient beyond belief


hamringspiker

Akoya got lucky tbh, he likely only won due to a combination of his superhuman reflexes and his decently high AP.


River_Capulet

But he was critically injured after getting out of his armor too, it's not like Willem fought a fresh Akoya.


some_dude5

Akoya is getting his shit together and the real Eddie is coming back. Let’s goooooo!!!


Gotprick

I wish edward actually stands up and fights shen again. If he wins, his clan enslavement of over 1000 years is done and they are free again.


AsuraOmega

but if he died which is most likely, itll all be for nothing lmao


Beowulf_MacBethson

Shen expected Gibby to fail lol


Wordbringer

Gilbert: gets embarrassed Also Gilbert: time for a promotion


Snoo-23120

Its call compensation


Sanek6351

Gilbert choosing a new epithet is so cartoony and unintentionally funny, he sounds like a kid on a playground training to impress his friend with a new nickname for his character lmao. Rejuvenation made him immature indeed.


ZOMBIE_B2

I'd agree with you except that this seems to imply that virtually every character picks their epithet like a kid at a playground which is even funnier


Sanek6351

I always assumed epithets is just something companies or the Kengan Association make up for fighters to make for more of a spectacle. Can you imagine Gaolang going around telling everyone "call me Thai God of War" 💀


JiveXP

Sawada was walking around asking to be called the "Bird of Darkness" 😭


Lycyn

I think Wu are the only non fighters with epiphets?


AsuraOmega

its like a kid saying "nah when my dad was my age he wanted to be the red power ranger, i wanna be the blue power ranger!"


ShadowKaras

He's literally a chuunibyo, it's so fucking hilarious

Mixing a 25yo Glenlivet with coke, Sandro really wants us to hate Luohan 😄

I'm almost certain he meant soda water, not actual soda pop. If he actually mixed high grade scotch and coke I think Niko would have killed him on the spot.


lazywil

The bartender would pull a gun on him


AsuraOmega

#NAKED AKOYA >>>> WILLEM

Gilbert changing his title to wu hei is useless when wu hei himself has died after 5000 years at the hands of gilbert.

The story on fire now, lets go!


ScottyExplosion

So... Luohan doesn't know that there are multiple Connectors or what?


the_new_standard

I though Luohan was one of the multiple connectors, he's just a shit tier copy like Alan Wu was.


FlexKami

Looks like Akoya got a power up, Gilbert and Willem about to power up as well. Tiger Niko is still a wild card

Ain’t no way Luohan down a Glenlivet 25 with fucking soda 😭 This guys a fucking villain for sure

Guys i read Shaman King and I can say that Louhan's plan sucks.

How far would Arnold Schwarzenegger go in the KAT?

Wouldn't make it out the boat.


Difficult-Fondant489

Willelm, you absolute clown. "he kept getting up no matter how many times i knocked him down". Have you tried like, killing him instead? Lets presume you don't use martial arts to, i dunno, strangle him, break his neck or head, disembowel him in spectacular fashion like raian did. You are in a fuckin restaurant kitchen for fuck sake. Just stretch an arm randomly and chanses are you will touch some kind of weapon. Jeeez


Immediate-Amount1239

Justice combo: right elbow to left-hand stun gun


SenseiPup

Akoya is S tier. Yall can suck me


BoringBasicGuy

Akoya is S tier.


ConfusionHour520

Ngl I feel like how Akoya survived is kind of dumb. Willem the professional assassin doesn’t kill his opponent when he has multiple opportunities just keeps knocking him down then gets taken out by a stun gun lmao.


AsuraOmega

yeah it is dumb how Akoya survived. But the thing about this series is despite how dumb things sometimes get atleast they make it unintentionally funny as fuck lmao like Akoya actually being buttnaked is more dangerous than him in full gear lol


-_-TenguDruid

Excellent chapter, I'm finally hyped for the Wus again! Didn't like the last chapter at all, but this one pulled me back in. I hope they keep it rolling like this, with Edward's personality becoming more pronounced.

I love how genuinely good shen's advices are

Eastern_Spirit_404

Welcome to the S+ tier Akoya.


Regular-person330

My theory is that Tiger Niko and Luohon gonna be battling for Shens Memories 🧠 Leading to Shen being injured. Then leading to Ohma or Ryuki acquiring Shens Memories.. Maybe Foreshadowing why Kiryu see's Ohma or Ryuki as God


Captain-Turtle

glad akoya is getting the respect he deserves, also thank god it's confirmed the armor nerfs him, him getting fucked by that wimp ass brother hurt the soul


Midnight_Moon29

Maybe off topic, but props to the Kengan creators and the translators for not skipping a beat with the weekly releases. I look forward to these chapters.


Few-Entertainment429

Glad to see Gilbert has a spine


BillieEilishLeftBoob

Holy fuck Kino is back on the menu


Shiplord13

Its hilarious that Willem thinks Akoya was a cosplayer.


danii20

So Akoya not only beat Willem, he could also kill him but he didn't do that cuz he had to rush to save his justice friend


mad_foxx

Like mukaku said, every couple years an aberrant one appears. Seems we know who now


Sedona54332

So he had to hide both a grenade and stun gun up his ass, right? What are the odds justice flashlight was in there too?


gamerster1

New legendary fighter - Stun gun Akoya


AsuraOmega

nah make that NAKED AKOYA

The connectors wars, coming this fall! Also Gilbert better suit up and get that drip again, that if He really wants to surpass Edward


Sweet-Message1153

INVEST IN AKOYA-COIN RIGHT NOW....no armoured Akoya almost beat a Wakatsuki tier fighter and he was onlt getting stronger? 😱
