Joking aside, I am intrigued on why YAMI is interested in Miu now and how are they going to lure her into their world. I am interested to see how Silcardo is going to tempt Miu and if Miu is compatible with his fighting style (Pencak Silat). I am also amazed to have read that Rachel was tried to be trained in Pencak Silat and that Silcardo acknowledge that she was not compatible with that style. I am also amazed that Rachel is still alive knowing Silcardo's past with disciples that do not live up to his expectations. |

That is kind of weird. Logically, if Yami wanted to bring Miu to their side. Isn't God Fist or One Shadow (Miu's dad) much better choice? Even Kushinada herself might be better choice given the tieshe seems to have with the Elder. Or maybe the real target is not Miu but Kenichi?
BTW, the translation really is iffy lately, and I think it hits the bottom this chapter with them killing off one of the Yami by having them become Nine Shadow Fists instead One Shadow, Nine Fists. And yes, Kushinada's Oppi is amazing, only matter of time before she enters Kenichi's harem...

I'm really interested to see how they are going to get Miu into Yomi. I mean, if it was the Miu at the start of the series, there might have been a shot, but the current Miu has every reason not to join. She won't be bribed or blackmailed, and her philosophy is at odds with theirs, so I really can't see it.
Also, damn, Kushinada is really, really hot, especially for a woman her age. here's to hoping Chikage turns out like that.

true, but he does have almost 10,000 imouto clones for him to play with....
Anyway, I always meant to mention this. One of the reason I love this series is because it reminded by to 80's and 90's Shonen Action manga. In a sense DB and Saint Seiya has influenced the rise of energy blast, and fantasy battles and as result you don't see many Shonen Action with realistic fighting (relatively speaking of course) that was based on actually martial arts concepts and historical references. Titles like Kinnikuman and Kōtarō Makaritōru were incredible. But there really aren't anying like that in the market anymore.

From what i understand, Kenichi and Chikage are bonding at a fast rate and that Mikumo is very interested in Kenichi from which she told the Elder directly, what i really wanna see is some Kenichi and Mikumo bonding, kind of like a master and disciple kind of way.
I don't care if Mikumo is over 80, shes a very gorgeous woman, her oppai is GREAT! But if Silcardo does try to take Miu, than i wonder what Saiga will have to say about that, knowing about what he does to his disciples, i don't think Saiga would be to happy about that, i also don't think Saiga himself is truly a bad guy, considering that Silcardo wanted to make Rachel disappear and that she was put under the One Shadow's (Saiga's) protection, as said by Kajima

Miu's nature is the key... I mean, Shou lured her without too much effort. Miu is curious and a DOU type. She wants to know about her father and if you can awake her nature, she will be in Yomi for dinner.

I doubt Miu will go to the dark side... For a lot of reasons, but mainly her deadly 11 feet tall grandfather.
Back then when she went with Shou she was just curious about her background, but now that she knows I can't think of anything they could say to convince her.

It's a debate in Asian martial art world for a long time now. Are martial arts in its core a sport or killing techniques?

Exactly, but having Silcardo approaching Miu (if she is indeed the target) just seem weird. Both Saiga and Hongo has much better chance of getting her. Heck, Ogata, Sougetsu, and even Mikumo herself would be a better choice given their various relations.
