Rereading the first couple chapters and Agito's fights, Kuroki and Hassad are honestly very memorable characters, even if the latter isn't talked about much. It's funny how much their roles contrast one another.
Hassad is a unique fighter with an interesting style, design, backstory and a cool introduction, told Kaede he'd like to face Ohma in the tournament, then he was unceremoniously crushed by one of Metsudo's bodyguards. It was a very defining moment, as much as I'd like to see him genuinely participate I wouldn't change a thing about what happened to him at all. Hassad's probably screwed in the anime adaptation considering Kaburagi doesn't show up in there. The two have a good dynamic.
Not much needs to be said about Kuroki I believe. I loved how the strongest fighter wasn't a youthful one with elaborate, almost supernatural gimmicks, but instead an old master who usually dies or loses early on in other stories to build up other characters, and one with humble techniques at that. There is a special kind of humility in Kuroki's victories.
Kengan Omega/Asura
Again
They ripped off Baki
Yujiro and Baki are both the strongest in the universe and they fight with their own gimmickless styles
*SIGH* FACEPALM
>fight with their own gimmickless styles
>what is demon back
>what is divine ogre
When is s3 bros?
You are fucking retarded if you think he looks like yujiro. Fucking nigger, baki have dogshit art with ugly characters.
Gensai is more like Doppo.
And what do you have to be on to call those two gimmickless? O MY BACK aside, there's Baki's silly jumping kicks and Yujiro's 180 degree axe kicks
The author of Baki is a shitty martial artist that jerks off tanking through damage with dogshit technique
Kuroki is fucking boring. He's only remembered because of his high power level.
Basicaly this
Not like Yujiro or Baaki
God I'm drunk
>Those friends would later go on to fight one another to the death... but the whole truth of these events hasn't fully been revealed in this series
Hasn't fully been revealed? This is a goddamn spoiler for the twist at the end of omega and he chucks it in here. Wtf sandwhich
How would you compare Kenichi to Koga?
Both willingly find themselves under the tutorship of vastly stronger masters and undergo harsh training. While Koga has great potential with his eyes and gets repeatedly beaten down in spite of it, Kenichi genuinely has no talent in martial arts. Koga starts off a delinquent who wishes to join an underground fighting ring, while Kenichi is a earnest student who follows through on his torture sessions despite his numerous complaints.
Genzan is dead already in Asura. Why would it be a spoiler for Omega?
Brainfart, I thought he was saying Cosmo's master killed Niko
Kuroki is still green
>At first he was supposed to overwhelm Rihito, only to hand him the victory
Imagine the beatdown Setsuna would've unleashed on Rihito. I wonder how far Setsuna would've got if they went with that idea. I guess he would've stopped at Agito.
God this guy looks like such a weakling vs any Baki character except pre-steroids jack
Nicolas destroy Akoya when?
Kuroki was the best surprise while reading Asura, for once you have an uber strong character just win it all.
I really didn't want to see Agito vs Ohma and he delivered.
Bonus point, Agito vs Kuroki was stellar.
That was like the first time I rooted for both parties in a fight because for once the supposed to be strongest fighter met his strongest possible opponent.
Nah, he has good and memorable lines specially in his fight against Rihito.
Koga is just as dedicated, he just occasionally needs proof that what he's doing is going to get him where he wants to go, which usually leads to his ass kicking.
It's a good trait to have, and makes Koga more endearing.
it was fun seeing this literal who crushing all the main antagonists tho
smug cunt is back, god i fucking love this shithead
Could Kureoki even lose KAT if match-ups played out differently?
It would require Kuroki being horribly fucked up from previous matches with his opponent being top tier in top health. I just don't see anyone fucking him up worse than Agito did which still didn't affect Kuroki's performance much since he knows bone binding.
I wonder how he'd deal with Bando, Julius or Waka.
MONGOLIA STRONG
