that one move The Man used on Shogun It looks like a variation of Hanzo's Hanging Bell Crack/Drop

[Evil Lord Proteus]

Man, if Shogun wins, this will be a real failure for the Perfects. The thing is, the narrative could support either winning - I wonder if The Man is going to use his ability to steal Shogun's power at the last second (remember that?), or something.

I think he all ready was stealing Shogun's power throughout the match, but it didn't quite work the same on him. The Man would glow and suddenly Shogun would get weak and The Man would overpower him. When he first did it on him the  spectators remembered back to when he did it to those D List Justice Chojin at the start of the arc. Bare in mind that even The Mountain was able to reverse it.

No idea who is going to get the win, but either way Suguru might have a damaged chojin to win over easily.

[Kingmuscle]

^^^honestly Jag I think Suguru is hoping they'll kill each other lol

New chapter. The mask is off.

[AtarusMuscleSpark]

Did Shogun improve his Guillotine? Looks like he did.

[TheRealLordJaguar]

Well, it looks like it's time for Shogun to get pwned....

[Frey]

My attempt at translating the first four pages of the current chapter:

 

Announcer: Ah ... that technique!

 

Budo Enma: Not yet!

 

Budo Enma: Ground!

 

Akuma Shogun: That's right!

 

Budo Enma: Glora-U (Not sure what this refers to)

 

Budo: A glot

 

Announcer:

... ... the blade of the decapping table

He is tryihg to forcibly remove it

Is it martial arts (Budou)

 

Announcer:

The power of Akuma Shogun,

With more power

He is hurling himself further down!

doubtful considering The Man's leg is shattered.

[Kanji]

Sweet chapter! We really need translations. Thankfully Planetman came back with Volume 49 the other day and we've just had 58 in Japan so we're getting there!!

 

I really need to go back and re-read vol 44 onwards.

And the match concludes.

[TheRealLordJaguar]

WOW! I did not see that coming....

[Evil Lord Proteus]

Hey did anyone else notice Sunshine's tears of joy when Shogun was declared the winner? That guy is so emotional.

[Kingmuscle]

I want to know what's being said more than ever now and I'm really shocked The Man lost Suguru Stopping Shogun Offing the Man is Interesting too

[Ridureyu]

I was so sure that The Man was faking being down, and was about to pull a dirty trick to win...

[bigladiesman]

Could be this the start of the incoming doom the Perfects were predicting?

From what I can recollect, Suguru, getting emotional, just stopped Goldman from killing The Man, their common enemy, and for some weird reason, Buffaloman also looks shocked that his boss was about to kill his defeated oponent. I had the hope of another Kinnikuman vs Buffaloman match, this time not as enemies, but to settle a friendly rivalry using a Justice vs Akuma battle as an excuse. However, Buffalo's reaction makes me think this won't be happening. My guess is that Suguru will try to reason with Goldman, warrior to warrior, to find a peaceful outcome to all this, and that at least one chojin per side will support him. If he's successful or not will decide the future of this saga.

Or maybe it's time for a fourth party to take part in the battle?

[Ridureyu]

Well, the Perfects just wrapped up a pretty poor showing.  They came in quite dramatically, but got whittled down so fast that even their reinforcements went down.  The Man ended up with one loss and one draw-that-counted-as-a-win.

[Kingmuscle]

I'm betting the next match will be the rematch of the century as Kinnikuman takes on Akuma Shogun aka Goldman

[TheRealLordJaguar]

I have a strong feeling that Goldman will drop the Akuma chojin and take up the mantle for the Perfects in order to honor The Man, then Buffaloman and Kinnikuman will team up to take on Goldman and Nemesis.

[Evil Lord Proteus]

I have always suspected that Akuma Shogun would take control of the Perfects, and that we'd see the killed Perfects come back to follow his commands or defect to the Justice Chojin or just go Neutral. Another thing I've suspected is Shogun may attempt to lead them in an extermination of the other Chojin, which might please Ganman who said they should kill any Chojin who does not swear fealty to the Perfects. Ganman was also the one who first warned them of the supposed crisis that is coming, which may be why he wanted to do an extermination to begin with.

 

Another thing I've been thinking about is that with the Underworld trashed, the dead could spill out into the world, including dead villains, which could lead to the Brutals finally becoming an organized faction with a goal.(the crisis Nemesis and Ganman mentioned and why Ganman wanted to exterminate everyone). Wouldn't mind seeing Brocken Man returning and actually being really strong, he could even be their leader.

Quite a word heavy entry, if only I knew what they were saying.

[TheRealLordJaguar]

I think Shogun just declared himself the new leader of the Kanpeki Akuma AKA Perfect Devils!

The next chapter (two weeks from now, as we have a skip next week) will be the final chapter of the arc.

[bigladiesman]

The next chapter (two weeks from now, as we have a skip next week) will be the final chapter of the arc.

 

So we'll definitely have a brand new arc? Holy crap, this is great!

 

Kudos to Proteus, who predicted it.

[Kanji]

Nice conclusion to a phenomenal revival series!!

 

Now all we need is an announcement from Toei that a new TV anime will be starting in July to take Tiger Mask W's slot when it ends!!

 

The return of the original Kinnikuman anime after 25 years would be spectacular. Maybe they will save it for a 35 year anime celebration next year or 40 years of manga in 2019!!

 

It's got to happen one way or another!!
