Anyone read History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi?

Obviously, Kensei killed his wife and kid, thus destroying their house and martial arts bloodline.

Also, Kensei might be stronger than we think: Superman respected Tanaka's old master and it takes a lot to earn that type of respect from him. If Tanaka is anywhere close to his old master's prime, then Kensei is a beast.

We don't know, yet, and based on feats, Kensei still appears to be the weakest.

that appears to be the case. only reason why Tanak would react so violently to Kensei knocking the cell phone out of his hands.

and yeah, Midou was pretty badass to earn Hayato's respect. the fact that Ogata was able to kill him says a lot too.

No, that master was dying of something pretty severe. Kensei would have been able to kill him, easily, apparently.

hmm, true. still, he also apparently killed Tanaka's wife and kid too from the looks of it and I highly doubt ms. Tanaka went down without a fight.

well, looks like it really is true now. though Ogata didn't know about the preganancy, he still killed the wife and while he was rather injured too. like I thought, Kai Midou put up a hell of a fight.

So Ogata felt bad for killing an unborn child...go humanity. Also even though this is a tragedy at least nobody can argue that Ogata is sexist.
And even though Tanaka's one step away from the deep-end, he still can't muster up enough killing intent?

Also I'm in agreement with Aura about the author's problem with Miu fanservice.

Let this be a lesson to you ladies: being a girl with small breasts with result in death.

I kinda see where Ogata is coming from. It's one thing to kill fellow martial artists but a babeh poses no challenge. And hell the kid probably would have had a lot of potential.

This confirms that, even though he was quite sickly, Kai Midou deserved the respect that Hayato gave him because he not only stood up to a healthy Ogata, he seemed to damage Ogata as Ogata was bleeding all over his face n'stuff.

However, this may be another indication that Ogata is simply deserving of his place in the Yami and he's actually an elite master class. Still, nothing much shows that he's an uber master: he's fighting on equal terms with a person that just became master class and cannot quite make the jump to "killer" (he's still holding back).

Uh...does this seem sexist to anyone else?

You mean "equality = dead flat-chested chicks"

Nah that's not sexist at all 😐

Nah I mean "equality=men can fight women."

Yeah, dead women does equal equality.

It would be sexist for Kensei not to have killed her.

Also, Miu's mom had huge boobs, but she died too, so I don't see the issue everyone is having.

Rimi just died, and her boobs are also big.

Though Hayato does seem fairly sexist. Or, he could have been referring to the daughter's age, rather than gender. She was quite young.

That's what I mean. Hayato is the wise elder guy so him linking equality to the tragedy is what made me think sexist. Really it wasn't so much the equality thing that caused this tragedy so much as really freaking poor timing on Ogata's part.

Oh yeah and looking back on the first few chapters with Ogata I read the whole "people who feel guilt for murder surround themselves in Buddha" thing. I guess Ogata feels bad and stuff.

Well he killed an unborn child, something without the potential to fight back. It did not choose to fight him, and Ogata seems big on sparing those that do not attack him, at least if they are weaker than he is.

So...Ogata's human? Well that's good to know.

Also referring to the sexism thing, didn't Sougetsu try to kill Renka just because she attacked him. Not only did she have big boobs but she was also his niece so at least we can see that Yami is all for equality right?

I agree with the old man: men and women are not "equal" in the slightest when it comes to martial arts.

Even when the male is disadvantages by weight class, two trained male and female athletes, the male would most likely win depending on the size difference.

Preaching gender equality in martial arts is stupid, actually. Unless the female is just that good in that weight class, there's just too much of a difference.

Maybe she shouldn't have attacked him then?

Well no. Not while pregnant at least. But since her dad just got massacred in front of her eyes it is perfectly understandable that she'd not be thinking straight.

exactly. while trying to avenge a loved one is admirable, this wasn't one of those times since all she did was get herself and her unborn child killed. on the other hand, at least we know that even Ogata has limits or lines that he wouldn't willingly cross.

Indeed, the daughter is clearly a selfish, morally reprehensible individual who deserved her fate, and never deserved Tanaka's admiration. It is a shame that she murdered her unborn child in the process.
