I have a question (sorry if this is supposed to go elsewhere) but is there a wiki or something where I can catch up on what exactly has gone on in arcs I've missed. I read the fanlation of the original manga, watched Ultimate Muscle, kinda stumbled on some of the stuff where the anime and manga departed on that show, and now there's been some sort of retcon back to when Suguru was in his prime? Has the five princes arc not happened or has any of those guys shown up again? Any help would be appreciated.

This new comic takes place after the Five Princes arc, but before Nisei/Ultimate Muscle.

New Entry. Sunshine is mean, Ninja is up next and his opponent appears to be some kind of Crow/Tengu Man.

Finally ! 
The Ninja will fight, I'm rooting for him to win, would be disappointed if The Ninja lose another battle.

Goldman using Hells Guillotine on two dudes at once is badass as hell.

*SPOILERS or whatever*
The Devil knights are fighting against the 10 ten perfects. Shogun's already beat #3 & #4, Junkman smashed #5, Snegator was torn to shreds by #7. Grim Reaper reappeared and was really #10 Psychoman, and he destroyed Planetman. Then Sunshine fought against Perfect #6 and almost lost, but came back and won it. Some dramatic backstory about the perfects and now the Ninja is fighting against #9 Tenguman. Which means Asuraman will fight against #8?

Thanks for the run down!! Actually I was up to date as far the Psychoman/Planetman fight! Also, who's Tenguman? Are you talking about Karasuman? (or Crowman for those that like to change the names into English!)

Actually Singman (Sunshine's opponent) is Perfect Eighth. Perfect Sixth will be the last to be revealed. (And I will be a very sad panda if it isn't Omegaman.)

He's a type of yokai named a Tengu. or more specifically a Crow Tengu. I guess they named him Crowman? Eitherway I'll refer to him as Tenguman.

Admittedly, I've missed the last few chapters but has it actually been mentioned that Karasuman is a yokai like you claim? If so, I think that would make him the first Chojin in 35 years to be one, right? Though I admit, the name Tenguman sounds cool, I'm pretty sure that if Yude wanted to call him that, they would have. It's Karasuman or Crowman at stretch even if he is a yokai. I stand to be corrected at any time of course but I'm quite a stickler for names being kept as they are otherwise I'd probably call Rikishiman "sumo wrestler man"
The good news is, we can always ask Yude via twitter/Facebook if we're ever unsure!

He has a drill and a flashlight because of plumbing installation, these are typical tools used by a plumber.
Also once again Yude somehow makes an absurd character totally awsome.
Apologies if this ever got addressed in a later post, (I'm still reading through this thread and enjoying reading what everyone thought and predicted throughout the previous volumes and this is as far as I've caught up on) BUT, I can only read it so many times before my OCD kicks in, his name is NOT Jack Tea.
Like I said, I'll stand corrected if this has since been revised or even acknowledged as the "official" translation of his name but the guy is a faucet. The Japanese word for faucet is "Jaguchi" but it's made from the two kanji, snake; read as "hebi" or "Ja" (蛇) and the kanji for mouth; "kuchi" (口) in other words, Ja-kuchi. Shimada Sensei made a pun on the word by deliberately placing a space between the ku and chi so that it reads as Jaku-chi or "Jack Chi". There is no reference to Tea in his name at all!! If there was, he would be called ジャック・ティー!
Sorry, had to get that off my chest!!
(Now I've posted that, I'll probably see it mentioned a few pages later knowing my luck!! Lol)

I don't mean the person himself is a Yokai. I'm saying his concept is based on one called Tengu.

I know what Tengu are. My point is, that's not his name regardless of whether some think he looks like one or not. He's black (like a crow) not red (like most Tengu are) .... And his name is Karasu which means crow! Am I missing something here? Sorry for sounding stubborn but his name is his name!

es, his name is Karasu(crow)... like a Karasu-Tengu (crow tengu). And a whole lot of Tengu are black, not red. He's really clearly Tengu-themed, even though his name points more toward being a crow. It's probably because he isn't a long-nosed or a dog tengu.
