Well Kevin's on the cover seemingly healthy.. isn't he on the brink of becoming non-existent, still?

Yude must be famous for plot holes.

I hope we get these in English here in America as our current manga progresses.

.. You have no idea how accurate "Rape" Spider is with some of the fanart I've seen.

*shoves fingers in her ears* If I pretend its not there, it doesn't exist right?

No updates yet on the manga front yet, however s-manga updated with this:

oh and reason for 29 (2 is ni and 9 is ku so niku means muscle)

no, "niku" means "meat"

"kinniku" means "muscle"

[Matto]

Allow me to explain. "Ni" is two in Japanese, and nine is "kyu" in Japanese. Just get rid of the "y" and you got "niku" = 29.

Well Kevin's on the cover seemingly healthy.. isn't he on the brink of becoming non-existent, still?

Fan-chosen fights, so no speedo!Kevin for you.

*shoves fingers in her ears* If I pretend its not there, it doesn't exist right?

Not if I made up the meme.

[geniusbob]

You know I'm starting to believe this "Competition Bulbs" thing, is all just a lie.

A lie that made the reason why another Tag Tournament was made.

I highly doubt it was a lie, per say. Considering what those bulbs can do, messing up time and becoming super awesome powerful would be a villain's dream come true. The plot device for it disappeared, just like Kevin's speedos. Which, like the speedos, will come back in due time. ;]

The reason why lots of choujins almost or lost their lives!

Thunder and Lightning just killed random Chojin before the tournament. In fact they didn't kill anyone except for those two useless ones during the start of the tournament. Neptuneman and Vamp!Walleh did a good job on the killing part though, on just the important characters though.

The reason why this whole mess started!

Which we have lovingly torn apart for the last two-three years. =3

I go away for a few weeks, and come back to find conversations about speedos, Rape Spiders, and Completion Bulbs.....and now I know why I come back: plot train crashes amuse me. Besides, that female manga thing just screwed with my head to much to even consider anymore.

It's almost as if the authors are playing a giant game of chicken with plot devices, pulling out at the last second.

to Matto: Speedo Kevin? Eh.. no. Kevin's.. I'm just.. not a Kevin fan. D: I was just confused by the cover artwork, that's all. ^^;

I meant more the squicky fanart then the meme.

Man, I am getting no updates on any of my sites this week. Is Yude taking a break, or is it cause of the 29 battles magazine?

[Matto]

to Matto: Speedo Kevin? Eh.. no. Kevin's.. I'm just.. not a Kevin fan. D: I was just confused by the cover artwork, that's all. ^^;

Considering he's been in one for about...50% of this arc, that's what he's called.

He may also go by Trench Coat!Kevin and Armor!Kevin.

Costume changes are so much fun to mock.

[Evil Lord Proteus]

So what is with the lack of updates?

True. You also forgot dMpShirtOverTheHoodie!Kevin.. with the magic eating popcorn through a metallic mask ability.

[Matto]

Japan only cares about the original Kinnikuman, so they don't mind that we (and the very small Nisei fanbase in Japan...?) gets left in the shadows.

WE HAVE FEELINGS TOO YUDE, AND JAPAN!! ;O;

Well, maybe Japan would have liked it more if he didn't change the target demograph from the original.

[KnuxieChan]

Or actually gave the characters more personality.

[Matto]

Two very good points.

I liked their anime personalities though.

[Dai Makai]

Ultimate Muscle: the only good 4Kids dub ever.

... I'd say Yu-Gi-Oh! was also good, but the Abridged Series has shattered my belief of that.

[Black Oracle]

Anyone else seen the covers for vols. 15 & 16 of the Nisei tag manga out this Friday (19th Dec):

Kin nisei choujin tag 15

Kin nisei choujin tag 16

Ooo, vol. 15's cover sports Robin in Kevin's mask!

Oh, and from this page you should be able to see preview pages from the Kinnikuman best bout 29 book:

Kin best bout 29

It gives the apparent top 10 matches of the book.

The nostalgia goggles tell me that the Pokemon dub was actually alright, but I know better. Maybe.

[KnuxieChan]

I liked their anime personalities though.

One reason I liked the anime better: More lighthearted/funnier story and the characters had personalities.

First few seasons of Pokemon were awesome. They're just beating a dead horse with it now. =/

[Evil Lord Proteus]

The 4Kids Yu-Gi-Oh dub was terrible. Anyone who says otherwise will be executed.

Beating? Try stabbing... It's annoying. 250 is enough for me.

[Matto]

This is basically what I see in a normal Pokemon episode:

They travel, they get lost, bee-eye-itching ensues, Brock gets horny, Ash helps some one-shot character, battle ensues, Team Rocket appears to save an otherwise crappy episode but still fail, they BLAST OFF AGAIN!!11 and it repeats...again, for another hundred episodes.

It's so easy to mock. For a shameless plug, everyone should watch Megami33's Sailor Moon Abridged. It's the only good Sailor Moon abridged series on Youtube. And then go watch Team Four Star's DBZ Abridged. If someone plans to make a UM Abridged, I would help out with writing jokes if needed.

Would you like some JELLY FILLED DONUTS? The only good thing about the 4kids Pokemon dub was the voices.

They travel, they get lost, bee-eye-itching ensues, Brock gets horny, Ash helps some one-shot character, battle ensues, Team Rocket appears to save an otherwise crappy episode but still fail, they BLAST OFF AGAIN!!11 and it repeats...again, for another hundred episodes.

The anime hasn't been that bad since the Johto episodes, there's hardly any filler anymore. Look up the Diamond/Pearl series when you can. You'll find its a WHOLE lot different then then previous two series. http://bulbapedia.bu...26_Pearl_series


Anyway, we have a sudden s-manga update:

Good job Mr. Tree, you are hiding Mari-san quite well considering how small you really look.

Too bad her future adoptive daughter can still see her.
