To go along with dante's point wasn't Shigure acknowledged as Master Class when she was only 18? She also currently they youngest Grand Master we'Ve seen in this series and she about the same age as Saiga in the flashback.
Speaking of which I guess Miu's mom cursed her to always have failing modesty.
Now that I think about it, Saiga and this other guy pretty much make everyone at Ryozunpaku look bad besides maybe the elder. they basically surpassed Apa and co. by a large margin. I mean the dark haired guy completely wrecked Honzou like he was nothing, who is on par with Sakaki. The good duys so to speak have been getting some pretty poor showings as of late.
Well the good guys can't always have the awesome moments. Besides, given how bad the Hachiou group was doing, I guess it's a good thing the villains are having a major spotlight right now, even if Saiga and Senzui are completely blowing the non-Elder masters out of the water with their strength and skill.

I've only seen the anime so I'm curious. How strong/good has Kenichi gotten in the manga?
As for Saiga and Senzui being uber...well it would be really underwhelming if they were anything less. Cosidering Hongo was able to beat someone that, at least going by forum rules, was superior to him I'd expect the leader of Yami to at least be able to take him: Jenazard being in the same category of master as Master Boobies and all.
Idk. Master boobies seems a step above jenezad or whatever his name was. Boobies girl casually trolled Sakaki and Shigure and look what she's doing to everyone in this current arc.
I'm all for the bad guys being challenges, but it seems like several of the bad guys are just well out of ryozanpakus league. With what they have shown so far, they could have just raided ryozanpaku from day one and killed the whole lot of them.

Yeah, this pretty much makes all the teens look bad unless the jump in skill from year to year is exponential. Maybe Miu and kenichi will be masters in a year or two. lol
You already know this but I'll post it anyway for others:
Kenichi has only been training for what, a year or two?
Whereas people like Shigure were training almost as soon as they could walk.
For Kenichi to have gotten as far as he has in such a very short time is nothing short of astounding.
Additionally, Kenichi has no talent for Martial Arts. But it has been repeatedly said that he is a genius of hard work (like Naruto). Also, a lot to do with Kenichi's progress is his tutelage under several top-level master classes.

From what we know, they would be suicide even for the top-level fighters because their skills, when combined, make them exponentially stronger.
However, your idea would work if half of them were off on missions, like happens from time to time.
I see it going down much like it is now where they split them up and destroy. And when you add Saiga into the mix, I don't think that the team could handle it. If the Elder was away like he always is, I think they could be defeated.
You are correct about kenichi but he seems to be the exception. He has to be pissing people off with his progression. lol The rest of them have all been training since they were small and aren't even close to where the masters were at their age.
Yeah but I figured that Senzui would have some crazy genes likes Saiga: I'm not giving credit to the clan due to how easily he killed off their members. Speaking of the clan, I still wonder who's idea was it to make all the females wear these outfits: flexibility my ass.
The grunts blended so well in the background I ignored them on my first reading. Okay Shigure is doing stuff. But I'm curious as to why this missile is so special: did Yami not have any extras or something because considering the amount of capital they have they could've at least got two right?
Well, he did take them by surprise. And he's clearly abnormally strong by any standards used in the manga. And clearly a perverted old man designed the uniform or something since the men are capable of moving in non-spandex with just as much ease as the females.
Probably means to target a particular spot so that it'll cause riots or something similar where martial artists can show amiss the chaos and wreck shit.
