no kidding there. Ogata just pretty much does what he wants. though givne all he is doing is watching the fights, I doubt a master will suddenly show up and challenge him; it'd be too sudden.
but damn, just how hte hell are Miu's and Rimi's private areas still remaining covered?! and if Rimi learns the technqiue I think she is thinking of, then Miu better not still end up kicking her ass; that'd just be too much.

Because Master class is ridiculous, and Kenichi wouldn't have any semblance of reason to let him believe the delusion that he can actually protect Miu.
He beat a guy who casually knocked out Miu. Seriously, go back and read 219. How the manga can still pretend that Miu is somehow still superior to Kenichi is beyond me. Then again I think it has been a while since it has insinuated that.
Also just remembered that Tanaka was at the amusement park. Looks like he'll get a shot at Ogata.

More correctly, there is an entirely different tier of fighter between them: Expert.Around chapter 380ish or so, Kenichi had been in the beginning stages of Expert class. That nerdy-looking Japanese salaryman who easily beat Kenichi in sparring was in the latest stages, almost Master class.
I don't think Kenichi is Expert class, yet, actually.
Sho took down Miu with a grapple, not through actual combat (not sure he would have properly fought her anyway, given his feelings for her) and from what I remember of their fight Kenichi was getting murdered most of the battle. It was his impossible willpower and determination to help Miu that let him win.
masters are pretty much leagues above disciples. given that one who is regarded as master class trash (Fortuna) required almost all of the 2ndary characters to team up on him, imagine how much punishment it'd take to take down stronger masters like Sakaki or Apachai.
and I think in that one chapter, it said that Kenichi was just barely beginning to enter the expert level of power/skill, so he and his friends of comparable strength still have a ways to go.
So Rimi is dead apparently.
Of course she died due to her own recklessness so our heroes will have a clean record. Can't have that tarnished!
Ogata is carrying this arc so far. Takeda vs Lugh was okay but man did this fight in particular turn shitty by the end.
What is with manga recently wanting me to root for the villain because I can relate to them more? Rereading the Kabuto vs Itachi/Sasuke fight put me back in this state of mind.
either she's dead or crippled. stupid girl should have listened.
and I think Ogata is going to be one of the major antagonists even out of all of Yami. he was once Ryozanpaku's disciple so there is no way he'll be fighting and going down anytime soon. and as for this fight, meh, it was basically just Miu getting stronger with every other chapter until this one, in which it ended in a tie, though Rimi is probably never going to be able to fight again.
and relating to villains is sometimes common; some do have a pretty sad life or something else that we can relate to.

I honestly think he should be better than her too. But there is the fact that he loves her, and he always chumps out for females. I think it was stated not too long ago, that up until just recently, Miu had still been taking it easy on Kenichi. It was after she came back from being brainwashed. Once she stepped it up in their spar, she pwned him. The only thing I believe that Kenichi has been stated to be better at than Miu is following fights, but that was before she got the amp in her Dou ability.

Ogata is such a bawss. Look at him. No ****s given about any of this really.I fear one of the Masters showing up to beat him up. Son of a ***** is the invincibility of the heroes getting old.
It's easy to look like a boss when you are amongst a bunch of disciple class fighters. lol. I don't really like the way he uses his disciples though. I prefer Hongo personally. It least he somewhat cared about his disciple.
Really? Invincibility? Apachai died
Hongo gave Shikaki a good fight, and looked like he would have worked Apachai and Shigure (although Apachai wasn't 100%)
Kushinada made both Shikaki and Shigure look like chumps.
Hell, considering how Hongo admitted that Jenezad was better than him, it wouldn't have been a stretch to say that he could have killed/or nearly killed Shikaki.
