Histpry's Strongest Disciple Kenichi

I was perusing the Anime thread when I thought to myself "Does manga count?" Without much effort I quickly found this and started a topic! Muah hahaha.!! Anywhosit, I came to revel in the majesty that is Kenichi :3 Just a brief synopsis: Boy is in high school, meets mysterious girl, boy wants to learn karate to become less weak, and the mystery girl knows just how to help the boy! You find out she lives in a dojo with 6 master-class martial artists and in order to accomplish his goals, despite his wimpiness and lack of talent, he struggles under the guidance of each master! If you're into martial arts, a little ecchi, tons of comedy, and some grade-A ass-whoopin' then I highly recommend this manga. I guarentee you'll fall in love with the masters, and Kenichi too d:

I love that series! I seen the anime. I haven't read the manga though. I kinda want to now since the anime didn't really a proper ending.

Indubitably! The manga is much better in my opinion, I had hoped for another season past the Ragnarok ark but alas, no such luck Sad

Yeah I noticed....-_-...anyways, speaking of Ragnarok, whose ya favorite character in Ragnarok? Mines is Hermit. Mainly it's because he looks like the main character in Assassins' Creed, but in black.

I would have to agree, Hermit, or Tanimoto if you like, is one of the most skilled and powerful disciples, he was wasting his time in Ragnarok and really becomes a much better fighter and person after that whole ordeal. This really shows later in the manga series with the debut of the next protagonist group, Yami; not only Tanimoto but Takeda too, the boxer, man does he grow! Kenichi had better watch out, even in a friendly sparring match Takeda showed him that he's willing to train seriously too, that chapter was amazing, haha.

I've only seen a few episodes of the Anime since when I'd babysit my sister over at her dad's house, they'd have the FUNimation channel and that would be shown all the time. It was really good from what I've seen, I'm just so busy with school it's hard for me to get into new Manga. I think over Winter Break I shall start it. :'3
