Nina's fanbase is going to change a lot. Since people who liked her cute image and OHKO style will get severely disappointed in her actual self - a sadistic berserker. Of course, there are fans of that too.

Coincidentally she just provided them with a viable alternative too. Hanaka is far cuter and isn't a sadistic bitch.

True, but understated—there may not be anything in the universe cuter than Hana.

In her PJs, anyway.

SEEEERIOUSLY???

Increasingly verbose.

I often salivate at the sight of those with power beyond my own.

What the hell is this Rocky 1?

Is the butler going to murder the judge's family or what?
That futon... press F

Young Nina looked so innocent.

Edit: I thought Hana would lock in a choke and it would all be over. Now I have to handle the suspense of decision cliffhanger!? Oh, the humanity.

Good rear naked choke is good rear naked choke. Highest percentage submission move in MMA and BJJ.

Watching this reminds me that a lot of times people get robbed from judges. What can you do? Hope Hana wins though, cause the stakes are so high it's almost uncharacteristic for an action manga.

Oh for fck sake! are they really going to let that bitch win? i swear if she wins because they bought the judges, im dropping this shit.

There's only 2 more chapters left I think.

Like, the only way this could've been more of a cliff hanger is if the match had been held in a ring suspended between two cliffs, and the judge is gonna let go of the loser.

Ugggggh gotta gather the strength... to survive the wait...

There's only 2 more chapters left I think.

I really wish there was more, this deserved to be a way longer series. =(

UGHHH CLIFFY?!?!

Even though I'm sad it's ending, I think it did it's job and I'm pretty satisfied (I may eat my words depending on how the last 2 ends tho...).

It was a story of Hana believing that she could be strong and I think she's definitely proved that already so the message of the manga is already complete. If it went further, I can see it running into typical shounen problems with the "villain of the week" storylines and it'll eventually turn dull. I do wish it coulda been slightly longer to see some of the other characters fight and grow as well, but overall I'm happy.

Before this manga ends, I just want to say what I said back in the first chapters, is funny how the gym is called kya zoo and the girls have traits like animals, yeah I just noticed the zoo part.

Seriously?!! It just ends in two chapters?... Fuck that's sad, the potential was big!

I don't know like, what about the number one fighter's story (the flower <3)? What about big ear girls fights in tourney? Like, the author established a world, they teased a end goal with several level to passe and stuff... They teased a long story about mma and they stop right there... Why? :(

Yeah I think it definitely deserves some sort of sequel I think there is plenty of material for them to work with.

The most likely explanation is. It didn't sell well so got axed. Alternatively author only planned to go that far, but that is rarely the case.

Don't trust it! You should totally read Claymore. None of those world building things happen until after the main story and plot points end and the author had to keep going. I mean, it did go on for like 5 volumes after that first ending if I remember right

This is why I read things like Comic Girls, Watashi no Taisetsu na Tomodachi etc. with such interest.

I already did and was a bit disappointed with how unexploited the whole plot was indeed... But it took so much time to complete, I admit I lost a bit of interest at the end :(

I'd call Nina a cunt but she clearly lacks either the depth or the warmth to qualify.
Based on her behavior I think its probable she has narcissistic personality disorder: Believes others envy her, can't/refuses to empathize with others, grandiose sense of self-worth, believes she is inherently deserving of special treatment and that others are required to be obedient to her and becomes enraged when they don't kowtow to her perfectly, it fits like a glove.

That wasn't really good. Just average.

I think the author has a future in horror manga though.

That wasn't really good. Just average.

I beg to differ, loved the art, the story isn't stellar but that's not why I'm asking of a sport manga. The world, the characters they created around MMA, the way they did the fights, etc. And the two main girls are cute af. I thoroughly enjoyed and would've liked to see more :(

Did you read Teppu?

Even though the ending was too rushed, THAT's what I call an interesting manga about MMA.

Natsuo is the best sports manga character ever.

And you even have thick yuri subtext.

This one is a joke compared to it.
