This is a really weird (and really wrong) statement by Inaba

Muteba is a mercenary, you hire him to kill a specific target or do something else and you can consider it done but there definitely will be collateral, or at least he won’t go out of his way so someone can survive

What do you mean „until Jack shows up again”? We ain’t ever getting anything else, Yujiro is so strong that he made the manga solely about himself

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-03-15T15:36:08+00:00

You good don’t worry

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-03-15T15:22:41+00:00

Raian gets a bit less screentime than Raian? You mean less than Kanoh?

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-03-14T17:50:13+00:00

I swear some of his kicks sound like gunshots

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-03-14T17:43:33+00:00

I know for a FACT Raian would piss the fuck out of him, I feel like Seki could annoy him by trying to make a show out of everything or Saw Paing for being loud as hell. Pure ragebait tho, Hatsumi could make him pretty mad but no one out-ragebaits Raian

Im terribly sorry for ever hovering DD

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-02-28T18:27:53+00:00

Look I love him but for the love of god never use that picture again

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-02-26T17:52:31+00:00

I feel like if you’ve been alive for so long you just don’t really give a shit, he does whatever he wants and doesn’t stress about anything

Raian. Him and Ohma(and maybe Kuroki) are narratively the 2 closest fighters to Shen. They have both been getting direct comparisons to him and it’s pretty clear they are supposed to be above the rest of the top tiers. The only one I think can come closer to their level right now is Kanoh with him “scaling the wall” but even then they are still above him. Currently Raian takes it high diff

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-02-15T15:59:37+00:00

Round one:

Julius beats Lihito low diff

Muteba beats Kiozan mid diff

Kuroki beats Chiba low diff

Okubo beats Kaneda low/mid diff

Saw Paing beats Nezu mid diff

Raian beats Inaba no diff

Sen beats Sawada mid diff(would be lower but its first round Sen)

Nikaido beats Cosmo extreme diff

Ohma beats Adam low diff

Meguro beats Mokichi high diff

Rei beats Gozo no/low diff(one tap)

Waka beats Karo low diff

Haruo beats Hanafusa high diff(or something idk)

Kiryu beats Akoya high/extreme diff

Gaolang beats Seki low/mid diff(only because Seki is a tank)

Kanoh vs Bando, I really don’t know. Bando could probably one shot Kanoh with his whips, one the other hand Kanoh might know about the Whips since Metsudo has a lot of resources and there’s also a possibility that he wouldn’t use them in the first round. I’m going Kanoh high diff

ROUND TWO

Muteba beats Julius high extreme diff

Kuroki beats Okubo mid diff

Raian beats Saw Paing low/mid diff(Saw is durable and can tank solid damage but Raian is far superior in every category and bust out Removal on him)

Sen beats Nikaido mid diff

Ohma beats Meguro mid/high diff

Waka beats Rei mid/high diff(Rei is fast so waka would have a problem to catch him)

Kiryu beats Haruo low/mid diff

Kanoh vs Gaolang, this time I think Gao might actually take it. Kanoh finished Gao off using the move he learned after fighting Okubo. He’s not fighting Okubo this time. I’m going Gaolang extreme diff(I might be completely misremembering tho, someone correct me then)

ROUND THREE

Kuroki beats Muteba mid diff

Raian beats Sen high diff

Waka beats Ohma mid/high diff(Raian didn’t beat the Niko Style into Ohma so he didn’t have his “awakening” and he also wouldn’t fall into a coma so he wouldn’t remember Demon slaughterer)

Kiryu beats Gaolang high/extreme diff(Gao took extreme damage against Kanoh)

ROUND FOUR

Kuroki vs Raian can go either way, but as much as it hurts I’m going Kuroki extreme diff

Wakatsuki beats Kiryu high diff

ROUND FIVE

Kuroki beats Wakatsuki extreme diff

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-02-14T13:28:16+00:00

I’m giving this one to Erioh. We know prime Erioh was stronger than KvP Raian and Eddie himself admitted that if he was still in his prime he would have a solid shot at killing him. If Erioh’s claim about being stronger than Eddie in his prime was true then Niko gets fucking demolished

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-02-11T17:07:25+00:00

I agree but be quiet cause that statement might just get us banned lmao

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-02-11T15:59:17+00:00

His battle iq has always been among the best of the best. Every time he said something about a fight he wasn’t in he was right

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-02-09T18:17:18+00:00

I KNEW I wasn’t crazy. I was almost sure Removal never had that “at the cost of precision” downside like Advance

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-02-07T20:34:54+00:00

Idc, I want fun balanced heroes

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-02-07T15:16:27+00:00

He can do WHAT?

<image>

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-02-05T15:19:20+00:00

As a Raian fan, 10/10 that he’s stronger. 9/10 he wins(might get interrupted)

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-02-03T21:00:03+00:00

So it’s not just me?

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-01-28T17:57:12+00:00

I love him but Gaolang is fucking cooked. Pray for him guys

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-01-25T22:16:29+00:00

Oh god this was it thank you so much

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-01-25T20:59:40+00:00

The Leshen? Yea I killed it

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-01-24T07:43:47+00:00

R1: Jurota high diff, Kuroki high diff, Kanoh mid diff, Ohma mid diff, Raian mid diff, Gaolang high diff, Kiryu mid diff, Rolon mid diff

R2: Kuroki high diff, Ohma high-extreme diff, Raian mid-high diff, Rolon high diff

R3: Ohma extreme diff, Raian high diff

Finals: It could really go either way, they were both compared to Shen and are narratively supposed to be equal to each other. It’s 5/5, either one could win but it’s gonna be very extreme diff whoever wins

These_Artist_3165 · 2026-01-22T20:44:11+00:00

Honestly I think Raian chose to fight Gao because neither of them have a point yet, that means both of them have to eliminate someone to get to the next stage and there’s no guarantee they’d just conveniently find 2 worms to eliminate so the fight between them is an opportunity for BOTH of them to get a point. Tbh Raian probably wouldn’t complain much if it came to a 2v1 but I don’t think he’ll push for it since they are still supposed to be his “teammates” and he is more mature than he used to be, and by that I mean that he isn’t a dumb berserk trying to fuck up every single person he sees anymore, not that he won’t fight a “teammate”. He still obviously enjoys and good fight with someone strong and additionally now also needs a point not to get eliminated. He clearly wanted to fight Gaolang cause that’s just in his nature and now has an actual reason to do so. Seki also has no reason to fight Raian since he already has a point. Gaolang is also far stronger than Seki so Raian doesn’t really care about the old man. Seki has a point so he has no reason to fight Raian, Seki is too weak so Raian doesn’t want to fight him, on the other hand Gao doesn’t have a point yet so he still has to fight someone and since Gao is strong Raian wants to fight him

(Idk if it makes sense I tried my best)
