Okay I need a summary.

These two faggots used to be army friends, Nicolas was a schizo though and killed civilians so Jean killed him but he was also a schizo and took his identity and then went into a coma.

But Nicolas never died and he is part worm now? That means our Nicolas was always Liu friend? And the only lying bastard was the niko user?

I still dont understand why there needs to be the coin and battle royal thing.
This tournament was just set up so Shen can fight someone who could beat him, right?
Why all those convoluted rules, just have them out on an island and have them try to beat Shen.
Instead we've got like 4 wasted chapters just to explain the rules and clarify.

Because Sandro loves Shen too much to let him get beaten despite supposedly being the main villain. That's why Sandro asspulled some more conditions for the good guys to "win" against Shen (the coin and device) without making him look bad

What I wonder the most is, who will win this whole thing and what will they wish for?
I don't think Shen or Ohma would win, it'd be too predictable. Or not, and they could have Ohma win or Shen but he'd wish for something silly rather than Ryuki's body.
But other than them, who could win and what would they wish for?

Beating Shen will require a massive collaborative effort, which cannot be done in a tournament where one fighter square off against Shen at a time. At least, this BR allows them to gang up on him legally and may be pull out a narrow win with the coin and watches if they failed

What's the point of this subplot? People liked Nicolas for being a personality-shifting identity-stealing schizo, Sandro took that away and now Nicolas is just "Jean" with a contender for one of the most lifeless stares I've ever seen Daro put to paper. All that personality is completely gone for something that's wholly unfamiliar
The real Nicolas is already sticking his god damn tongue out too so Sandro's already telling us not to expect anything from him

I know OG Nicolas was originally just a flashback character that Sandro had no intentions of bringing back at all but Flashback Nicolas had some unhinged interest to him, so it's incredible to see Sandro give a dead character a chance at life and make him as generic and straight forward as possible
Also it's funny that Liu and Jean are one of the only three people who came here for personal business and not to protect Ohma and Jobyuki

He's underrated in the same way that Akoya is.
Their reaction speed is fucking crazy and effectively gives them the means to compete with per-initiative guys with raw speed. Jean Lucolas was tagging Akoya's pressure points with insane accuracy given the speed they were working at. Akoya's a parrygod and Nicolas can somehow reliably tap pressure points at comparable speeds. Even if he doesn't have control over when and for how long he can make someone go numb it's still a wildly useful trick.
Jean really just has a problem with motivation, but he's determined to finish the job here, so he shouldn't be held back like he normally was at Purgatory.

The premise is wrong.
Right now, Shen is literally participating in a no-killing-allowed battle royale where the winner can just wish for Shen to leave Ohma and Ryuki alone. He's obviously been whitewashed by Sandro enough to be willing to go with it, too.
So no, Joji doesn't need to kill anybody. He could just challenge Shen to a drinking contest, where if Joji wins, Shen will drop the plans and spare Ohma and Ryuki. That's all Joji needs to do.

Not that Shen's plan frankly matters, since they already got him to promise he'd drop it if they provide him with a challenging fight. And the time limit they have to do it is measured in the decades.
Seriously, Ohma is already motivated to win a fight against Shen anyway simply because he's the strongest guy around, him keeping his body is basically a bonus. Even if you ignore this entire sham of a tournament, Ohma and Ryuki are pretty much fine because they have literal decades to give Shen a 'fun' fight with no limit to the amount of times they can attempt it.
For fucks sake, Ohma could have already canceled Shen's plan by beating the Tiger, but he was literally 'nah, I want to beat you at your best'. If Ohma himself isn't concerned, I have no idea why other people even care.
That's why all these extra rules are actually kind of hilarious. Because all they need to do is give Shen a single good fight. But apparently the KA plan, as Gaolang put it, is to basically avoid fighting Shen as much as possible by giving alternate paths to victory.

Not even Koga/Ryuki/Ohma care about that stuff anymore. Frankly, Shen is probably Ohma's second closest friend at this point after Kazzy, given how they interact with each other. Top 5 at least, depending on how you want to rank people like Rihito or Koga.
You can rightfully call it bullshit, but it seems clear that Sandro is essentially pushing all the bad stuff the Worm did to the cast in early Kengan Omega onto Xia, and Koga (and Joji too) already got their revenge on him.

If you get repeatedly stabbed in a murder attempt by crazy cult members and your Uncle refuses to lend in a hand in dealing with the situation because he's best friends with the guy running the cult then your Uncle's a bitch
Joji is telling Koga under no uncertain terms that he values his friendship with Shen more than he does the well being of his nephew and his friends. Joji doesn't even have to kill Shen, just give him a good fight but for some reason he refuses to do anything other than sit and drink
Not that any of this matters anymore, Ohma doesn't care and treats this shit like a game between Father and Son, Ryuki just goes along with whatever stupid shit his brother and dad are doing and Koga completely forgot about the knife incident

Shen has, eventually, been described as nothing more than "strongest guy who just wants to play." And, you're right; there's no limit to who he can play with, there's no limit to when, where, and there's no limit to how often. Anyone can attempt to fight/play with him, however many times they want to, under any circumstances they want, and Shen actually loves them for it.

The question is, as it always has been; "why?" What reason does Shen get to be the strongest human on planet Earth, and not capitalize on it? What stakes exist to guarantee investment from this man who is basically considered a "messiah" for fighting?
Sandrovich never ever gave us a reason for activity, he's frequently ret-conned explanations as he felt that was fun, there simply has NEVER been a GOAL. There are no goals. For any of this. It's just... a playground.

Shen's desire for immortality and his generations worth of esoteric Martial arts knowledge seem like two things that are almost unrelated to each other
His biggest goal is immortality or at least it "was" up until current Shen showed up. He's cool with letting Ohma and Ryuki go so does this mean Shen is fine with finally dying off or does he have a backup plan in case the Ohma Ryuki thing falls through. He's strong as shit because it gets him what he wants, he stole a cult, gained resources to study cloning and has men in every important part of society. He wants a good fight but goes about it in the most half-assed way possible by waiting for someone to show up instead of teaching those most promising so they can get to his level

I assume if Ohma or whoever satisfies Shen's fight autism, Shen will just fuck off back to the mountains, and dropping by a few decades later to grab some orphan to Huishang himself into.
And then a hundred years later, the next Shen will be talking to Koga's grandkid, going 'ah yeah, I remember fighting your grandpa and his best friends, they gave me the best fight of my life'.

Worse, they were literally thousands of kilometres away from Japan, possibly implying the duo hopped from country to country, all across the fucking world, taking down Worm bases. They thoroughly skullfucked the Worm so hard that the previous Shen appeared to personally congratulate them before vanishing like a magician amidst the flames.
I'm not sure if Sandro even remembers writing that. It's such a pointless addition to throw in, and it'll likely be forever unacknowledged now that the Worm is a good guy organisation now.

The whole story is so convoluted now that that very well may have been retconed and changed into something else but I'm pretty sure the stakes are Ohma and Ryuki basically. Or at least it used to be Ohma and Ryuki.

For whatever reason Sandro thinks that there are people who still think that.
I think it's also time we entertained the possibility that Sandro might have schizophrenia or some sort of bipolar disease. He might actually believe Shen will just cuff Ohma and Ryuki the second he wins and drag them to his cloning dungeon. Even though that's the last thing the character he's been writing will do.

I think the whole coin gimmick is just there for narrative reasons. As in the characters in-universe don't think Shen will be beatable in a fight so they basically came up with a work around and are hoping that Shen will uphold his end of the deal if he loses the tournament. Us readers know that that kind of win would be lame and very unlikely in a fighting manga where certain characters have been constantly hyped to be scaling walls and shit (unless we get subverted of course). The characters don't really care that Shen wants a good fight, they just want him to lose the tournament and not just lose a fight.

His fighting style isn't really all that bad, it's just limiting in its form. He doesn't have the insane magical MMA flexibility of the Niko Style, but his defensive style suits him well enough.
The more precision-based, harassment style he was showing off against Haruo was also highly effective at dismantling opponents with just insanely exact and brutal fundamentals. He was sort of a mini-Kuroki with crazy reaction speed in R1 with how he was ripping into Haruo and gouging the wounds.
He doubled down on the shield stuff in Omega, but his parries are pretty effective. Nicolas was just a weird matchup for him because he could still hit pressure points even if Akoya diverted the blow. To his credit, he also tried to stick to the rules until Nicolas started cheating his ass off and got his murderboner going with his own.

It's basically just an efficient, defensive style that works for him. It's incredibly simple, but it makes great use of his reaction time because it means he can execute those simple options with extreme efficiency.
It's maybe not the best style he could put together, but it's something easy to settle into. In a way, it's comparable to Agito's Martial Artsβ„’ in that it eschews having tons of options so he just has to think about parry -> bash from various angles. I'd say the main issue, aside from how limiting it is, is that it doesn't really capitalize on his fuckhuge frame and crazy physical specs. He typically lets his opponents come to him when he could just harass most people with his reach.
>he'd be a better grappler than anyone except maybe Markiplier
Honestly, Jurota's grappling is kind of a joke. He's basically only shown off his throwing skills and the one sleeve choke against Agito. Granted, Swing is a good trick and worth building around, but Cosmo and Kureishi come off as more impressive grapplers overall. Akoya is good at pinning and grounded combat though, hence the shield crush, so he really could stand to expand his repertoire from there.

Look, I know the rules of this tournament state that no weapons are allowed.
So, uh, what's the whole point of Otakemaru again? I thought that it was going to be a central part of Raian's combat repertoire from its introduction, and yet here he is without Otakemaru.

Already forgotten. Anything in Omega that is older than 5 chapters might as well be considered soft canon.
In-universe, it was always a McGuffin asspulled out of the void to give Raian free principles, but in truth Trenchcoat Raian happened because Sandro read Kouya ni Kemono Doukokusu, saw this character, said "Man, this guy is so cool, I should make Raian like him so he'll be even cooler then he already was" so he gave him his outfit for a chapter. And that's it. Trying to think of anything deeper than this is going to hurt your brain, so don't.

He doesn't usually use magic-based buffs in the VN from what I recall. Aside from his exorcism and spiritual surgery magic he mostly just wails on people with trained martial art skill. At the end of Heaven's Feel, he was completely trouncing Shirou with just mundane skill as he was dying.
He used more buffs in one particular fight in Fate/Zero, but that was more of a one-time thing.
>The really strong one would be Medea's master Kuzuki
Kuzuki would absolutely clean house at first, but he'd probably get the Ryuki treatment where his moves wouldn't be as effective after people saw them once.

Raian is likely going to get a killing-DQ to give himself a soft-out. If Raian was kept in though I could imagine him being tossed against Gensai to weaken Gensai for his exit (to give him an out too) in the plot. Gensai isn't losing to Raian. Not because I think he's stronger but because of meta reasons. He'd shit out a few generic "master" sounding generic lines saying how Raian is still too green while setting up how he'd be a badass patriarch in a decade after doing a chungus lance X principles. But by all means Raian should rape him.

Unfortunately the Ohma issue is already here, and even Ohma didn't get to the point of brutally mogging every other cast member as hard as Hina does until after the Inside when he started doing things like the Five Fiery Humiliation Rituals. But Hina is already at that point since she can just just straight up overpower and pulverize gorillas and ignore weight class, which mysteriously suddenly stops mattering after it was the crux of a fight literally the previous chapter. If FemMeguro is anywhere even close to Riko, then Hina could credibly beat her own organization solo with a little effort.

No she isn't. Not as long as we have the shadowy villain star child teacher who probably has a cult of devoted jobbers who like to stick their tongues out.

What Sandro does is imo, worse than just not planning ahead and adlibbing everything. He INTENTIONALLY sets up mystery boxes fucking everywhere and continues bringing them up, but always leaves them juuuuuuust open enough to interpretation that no matter what he ultimately puts inside, it isn't a straight up retcon. Readers get to spend literal years sometimes filling in the blanks and creating headcanons better than what Sandro inevitably writes, which often is just "Sandro got bored and doesn't like that idea anymore so it doesn't matter", IE the cyberbrain plotline being discarded(likely as part of the chain reaction caused by him taking away the vessel plotline from Tiger Niko to focus more on his favorite pet, Shen).

I'm genuinely wondering, what's the plan here. This is an official tournament where killing is banned. Okay, both of them are both obviously not the type to care about that, but what happens after one of them (Raian) actually goes ahead and breaks that rule and gets disqualified? Is he supposed to just leave on his own to the eliminated player spot? Do they send the bodyguards after him?

It's such a cowardly way of writing, and I have to say that the frequency with which he uses this shit as a backup plan actually is an indicator for what kind of a person he is.
He cares just enough about a story's internal logic that he would actually put in these vague spaces that give him a ton of wiggle room to do what he wants in them while being "consistent" (so to speak) with the story and the setting, but can't care enough to plan or even decide in advance what kind of thing he wants to do in these specific vague areas (otherwise, he wouldn't need to actually exploit this ambiguity).
So what does this reveal about him? It reveals that a person like this is essentially an underachiever with an overinflated ego.
He doesn't want to put in effort, and yet is aware of the importance of basic internal logic (instead of just doing blatant retcons), so he cares enough to basically put in measures that basically shut people up and potentially dupe impressionable people into thinking he's some kind of a 5D genius. He doesn't care if more critical readers catch onto his bullshit act, he just only cares if the idiots (like the Comikey paypigs) think he's smart.
And he's self-aware about it too. This translates into his writing in the most insufferable way possible: With constant fourth wall breaks where characters literally address tropes to the reader, as a way of reassuring them that Sandro is aware of these tropes.

I'm holding out hope the twist on Hina will be that she's the final villain. If she really is the strongest one of the Star Children I'd like to see her as the one the other fighters in the story have to bring down at the end. She's not portrayed like a straight up good guy the way Ohma and Koga are right now even if she is working with the rest of the main cast for the moment.

I'm sure Sandro will fuck it up eventually the way Ryuki, Agito, and Setsuna's villainous sides eventually got buried and made them all less interesting. But for now it's still fun every week and not making me groan like Omega.

I feel like the closest comparison for her is going to be Shen but as the main character. Invincible and crazy but doesn't hurt the good guys, and she'll even go and annihilate an antagonist for daring to hurt/threaten her friends just like Shen to Lu*han.
She'll probably just give up the rest of the chemicals in the end and just decide she likes hanging out with everyone and fighting in matches that she doesn't want to destroy the world or whatever anymore. And she's definitely going to oppose the star teacher(after the first star ikemen girl tries to take the teacher down and jobs) whenever that stuff kicks into high gear too.

We know Sandro attends pro-wrestling events; we know he wrote Kengan Asura. He should already have the experience he needs in order to write good announcer dialogue. This is a "level" "beyond" phoning it in; somehow Sandro feels no discomfort from how ass his own writing is. He might not have pride as a writer proper. He truly, TRULY only cares about it from the angle of people thinking he is smart or something. What a unfathomable monster...

I doubt it's intentional; still funny though.

Do you have any idea how much better Kengan Vs. Purgatory was than current Omega? There were actual fights there! A plot tried to happen!! Lolong moved!!!
And above all it was fun. Absurd, but fun. Daro was still trying without the use of AI, and Sayaka was still alive.
It had many lows, it didn't make sense at times, but it was an expressive story worthy reading with everyone here. Omega is now dead, and it pales in comparison to what it once was.

He'll even show his ass if it means victory.
Not even "he" could go that far

You guys should really learn that 4chan opinions are not reflective of sales. Omega is his many maker. Ashura carries his name and his series that were made after it. He can do whatever the fuck he wants with his other works.

KvP is absolutely where the cracks started to show in terms of the fights themselves when our last Kengan tournament was the KAT in comparison, but even average Purgatory matches are a massive cut above slop like the Real Timer's Tournament. If only we knew how bad things really would be.
The only thing along the lines of a current Omega fight was the joke of a Fangbowl, and even then at least then there was a bit of effort put into the art when Misasa finished Yumi off and the like, compared to the second Yumi humiliation ritual.

How angry are you knowing Fei would have lived if he was just introduced into KAT like what was originally planned?
Because Sandro was not trying to kill the majority of his characters in the super duper death match tournament where killing is allowed
>Bando survived the disease Hanafusa injected into him
>Hanafusa survived Bando dislocating half his spine
>Mokichi survived getting his neck snapped and head slammed into the ground
>Nikaido had his heart twisted by Setsuna and then simply had it untwisted and he survived
>Setsuna twisted his heart in a direction from Kuroki's Devil Lance in a flashback
>Meguro was killed but he lives on through his normal clone and the schizo ramblings of a Judo practitioner

Fei would have lived

This
People here think Omega is dogshit boring and to a lesser extent think SiR is poorly written but I've seen nothing but hype and praise from anywhere else
Anons here couldn't give less of a shit about Blue Ursus if they tried and most think the main character is an off-looking Gorilla but outside these threads people were drooling over her design when the MC was introduced. It doesn't matter to you how people outside the threads feel about Sandro's work but Sandro can keep coasting because he's appealing to a niche that barely gets any love, that being cute girls beating each other with Martial Arts. He's not pressed to do better because he knows he doesn't have too and he loves it. He's living the Hack Writer dream

Blue Ursus is a funny case because I barely see any hype for it anywhere. It even got the SiR collab for its first volume, very early for it. I should check whether or not it debuted in shoseki
>because he's appealing to a niche that barely gets any love, that being cute girls beating each other with Martial Arts
Unless you are an established author or really lean into ecchi you don't have a lot of chances to survive with that genre. There are spokon but that's a different thing

I could see Sandro MAYBE killing Fei anyway to further build up the stakes of Ohma using the advance by showing someone else actually die from it onscreen, because he'd be classified as an evil outsider trying to intrude on the sacred tournament like the white suits who also got to die. But Sandro morality is hard to predict at the best of times.

>Goku's sub-par fight with Cell
Huh? You're right that Gohan vs Cell was a beatdown rather than a fight, but Goku vs Cell was quite good.
