THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------


Well that was something. The fights were intense but the animation sucked. As a result the enjoyment halved down just like fighters power halves down when they are injured.

They made this anime a bit more realistic unlike BAKI, where even if your eye is pulled out or you are in dead bed you can make a full recovery in no time. But even if I compare them Baki anime still gives me more enjoyment than Kengan Ashura, can't really figure out the reason. Still hating what they did to Ohma here, they did him very dirty. Season 2 part 2 is already announced.

Really liked this season but the flashbacks having barely no animation and the overall quality of it being worse than the 1st season hurt it quite a bit.
Still enjoyable overall but it doesn't deserve this treatment.
7/10.

P.S: OP is an absolute banger.

Even with some of the cuts they made in this last episode and the relatively poor animation outside of the fights, I’m pretty satisfied with this part. Loved the fights, especially Kaolan vs. Agito.

I might change my score after thinking about it a bit more, but I’m giving it a solid 9 as of now. I’m a bit biased because the manga is in my top 10, but whatever.

Based on the preview for the next episode, I’m assuming the last part is coming out in winter of 2024? Even if it doesn’t, I’m extremely hyped for it. Can’t wait for the end of the series and the rest of the fights to be adapted.

It was pretty enjoyable, the animation sucked outside of the action scenes, no surprise here, however, the animation and the fight choreography in the action scenes are pretty good, I'm satisfied with what I got, not the best thing out there, but definitely not the worst either, it gets the job done and I could feel the impact behind those punches, this is something this anime does pretty damn good, you really feel the impact when they are fighting.

Also, the voice actors are really damn amazing, I'm talking about the original Japanese dub and the Spanish Latin American dub, they are fucking amazing, the English voice actors, on the other hand, are kind of shitty, for some reason the English voice actors suck in this anime which is a shame, the English voice actors in Castlevania is fucking amazing though but in this anime, they simply suck hairy balls.

Anyway, I'm satisfied with what I got here, it's pretty enjoyable for what it is, just a fighting anime, don't think too much, just turn your brain off and enjoy the amazing voice actors and the fights, and the music too since it's pretty good and hype, that's all I need from this anime, no one is here for the story anyway and if you are here for the story then you are doing it wrong.

9/10

Another great season. Ready for season number 4. We came to the last 8 fighters.

Spanish translation:
Otra gran temporada. Listo para la temporada 4. Llegamos a los ultimos 8 luchadores.

it was okay again, something about Kengan just doesn't do it for me like other anime. I enjoy it I guess but can't get really into it either

Of course they outplayed the coup d'état. Now I would have been surprised if Ohma agreed to drop the tournament xD Next he's gonna fight but it's very worrying in his condition, how he coughed up blood is maybe a foreshadowing

The Khaolan match is the highlight of this season, maybe it's because it's less violence than other match, there's no "killing aura" here, just pure skill.

His plans got wrecked completely. Ohma is a beast now. He is destined to die though. We are going to lose our MC to injuries what a shame😔. Cosmo looks like he is also evolving. The guy that beat up the brudda with the katana had some crazy look in his eyes😂😂. What he did to his opponent's face was disrespectful. Wait the police officer and Fang are working together🤨🤨. We have a new organisation introduced called Bugs. Now we know Ohma's life-advanced technique isn't actually unique to him.

We got to see Ohma's training coming to an end and ofc the coup d'état failing. This was a fun watch, hopefully we get the next season soon!

So .... this was a bit weaker than the previous seasons. To compare it: I scored most stuff (except some single OVA episodes) from Baki with 8/10. The previous seasons here from Kengan Ashura as well.

I liked some of the tournament background stories from some of the chars - the Baki tournament arc was still way better there though. Background story and the last 2 episodes here ... were a bit better. I think I noticed a lack of animation though. (This must have been less bad in the previous season. Sometimes too many scenes in the earlier episodes where it seemed like they were showing just chars + talking but not animationg. Mouth not moved or they were shown from away.)

Still looking forward to the next part/half. From what I have heard this should finish the original manga (that afaik only had the tournament)? (But there being a sequel manga - that hopefully gets adapted as well. "Omega" or something.)

I still liked the old chars (Yamashita, Katahara and the old Kure guy). Would have been better to see more of them - my main fun in the previous seasons was from Yamashita. (And the comedy - where he accidentally dodged something and some other guy thought he had super reflexes.)
