History`s Strongest Disciple Kenichi (Shijou Saikyou no Deshi Kenichi)

[Fran~]

Wait... you're forgetting the fan-service that this manga provides...

[hakisak]

Um...Are you trying to convince me to read it or put me off?




I read Seinen and Shounen for the most part--- for action and plots. I don't mind talk but, I want to see some really great fight scenes.

*If I could manage not to slit my wrist after reading *The Szayel Fight* in Bleach I could live through anything...but if it's like Hack. series with panty-shots...no thank you!*

[Fran~]

Kenichi is a fun manga to read... with very bad ass fights and some sexy girls too, who fight aswell

But everything is focusing in martial arts. Give it a try...

[Cinocard]

Great fight scenes, this is the one. Since the art is pretty good, and the theme setting about Martial arts is also very well-researched.

The characters are very likable.

Plot is nothing striking, but the storytelling is good. It builds up tensions here and there, and it makes you quite attached to the characters, so it does make you want to know what happens next. Nothing unpredictable, though.

It is also very humorous, and quality fan-service ensured.

So overall, it's a well-rounded action Shounen. An easy read, you may not get to really like it, but you certainly won't come to hate it.

Well , the characters are talking and there are a lots of action so its your choice .

No you guys convinced me!It's sound like it's somewhere between B-Reaction and this manga I read that I can't remember the name of (Because I read so many) where Tobe had been in hell (and being dismembered over and over) since the Edo period and he has to eat a thousand sins with this staff from hell to get out- and his head would come off if he hurt humans --Both were funny even, if the latter provoked more thought and had Great Action.

B-Reaction had fights, fan service and lovable characters..

Right up my alley!

(Yay for run on sentences) Thanks for the input--I appreciate it.

[Cinocard]

Yeah, it's somewhat similar to B.reaction. But manhwa joking style is very different from manga. It's a pity B.reaction got axed, though.

[hakisak]

It did....I thought I finished it. No wonder it ended like that...

Is B-Reaction a Manwha or Manga by a Korean Author?


I will read Kenichi later

[Baka Ronin]

Try a korean manga called Veritas, you wont be disappointed. Kenichi is great I just wish we got more chapters at once. :P

That's why I said to a significant degree it's there but it doesn't ruin fights

[Photonbeam]

Does anyone know where I can find YOMI or YAMI's logo?

Do they even have an official logo?

I remeber each master and disciple pair having their own symbol, but I can't remember one for the whole organisation.

I see, I thought they had one just like Shinpaku Rengou. Shame on me for reading the whole manga and not noticing that there isn't an official logo for YOMI and YAMI.

Cam raw out. Wow. Kenichi is popular enough for a cam-raw. That's crazy awesome.
Also, with cam raw, I finished the translation. Enjoy

So I guess my spoilers are not needed.
Damn, just when I was thinking what theme song I should use this time.

It was a tie between Sky High theme song for Mil Máscaras or Enter the Dragon which all of you know.

Buuuh... i was so looking forward to that

[qwertzu]

Wait a second.

Right now it's about 2 am in Japan. When Rogue_Sapphire posted it was 0:21 am and someone already got the new Sunday, scanned and uploaded it?
I'm impessed!

Or do they get the magazine earlier. I always wondered about Tri-ring posting his(?) spoilers so early. When I was in Japan, I did not get to buy my weekly dosis until wednesday.

How do you do it? Magic?

Spoiler for spoiler:
