Even underwhelming battles look good under your hand- appreciate yer use of sound effects lately. Am honestly surprised Justin won, and hey we got 2 trump cards of his to look forward to.


ghin

thank you!


Drajion89

Hey Ghin, any plans on animating  the strike it Rich fights. I’d love to see you do some of those and I think you’d enjoy it as well 


ghin

see [here for Hongou Hina vs. Yuzuha Lee.](https://www.reddit.com/r/ISSK_Manga/s/rCLHzxmeah) I will be doing more, just a bit behind on getting some Kengan ones done because adding audio is new to me and hard. Whenever I get tired of animating Kengan I switch over to Strike It Rich or my own non-manga personal projects, so expect to see more soon.


ghin

Underwhelming fight at best but excited to see 2 special moves from Justin in the future. Julius Agito waiting room.


Nukafit

Good work even tho this fight basically gave you nothing to work with hopefully Justin does more than take a flurry of punches form Gaolang and try to one shot him


ghin

thank you!


jotheblack

Bro, i've been following you for years now. Literally was like number seventeen on your first video. I just want to say I am happy to see your progression and how it looks like It's getting easier and easier for you to do what you do. Keep up the good grind. Love the content.


ghin

Thank you! glad to see you've been following for so long!


Devilingi

Why underwhelming, because it's short?


th1s_1s_4_b4d_1d34

Because it was a boring fight. There were no exchanges, no sleight of hand, just one guy trying to zone, the other guy pushing through and ending it in one shot.


NerdKing01

I wouldn't entirely say it was boring, its just that one guy was interesting while the other was boring, and the boring guy won


th1s_1s_4_b4d_1d34

How was Hikaru interesting? He showed a Karate jab, a kick and that's pretty much it? What's his cool quirk other than vanity?


NerdKing01

He basically had Paul Pheonix and Lars moves from Tekken. I was interested to see that


OtakuDragonSlayer

No it just sucks from a fight choreography standpoint


[deleted]

If that was true then this animation would be ass and it's not.


OtakuDragonSlayer

-_- That doesn’t make the fight choreography good dude. That just means the animator can turn garbage into gold


sanctaphrax

I enjoyed it, FWIW.


Vendezrous

You cooked fr, that suplex scene is goated


ghin

thank you!


The_Crispanator_Guy

Peak as always the suplex impact and sound effect actually jump scared me


ghin

thank you!


FlyingTurtleBob

Oh, thanks I had it muted thinking there would be no sounds


Dratovir_the_Lost

Honestly, the animation is fire, but it just shows what those fights are now : succession of special moves with less fights and less regular hits keeping the fast pace we had in ashura


ghin

Thank you! Yeah, it's noticeable especially compared to my old animations where they were much longer for fights because there were so many hits and non-special moves. I'm hoping the choreography for Julius Agito is more exciting to animate.


jotheblack

All of us are. I'm looking forward to a Kengan ass kengan fight. I'll be so disappointed if this next fight. Isn't the longest we've had in a long time. (Pause)


Rancorious

This fight better be a WAR


VenemousEnemy

That wasn’t what gaolong vs jurota was, or ohma vs lolong, or koga vs ryuki, or cosmo vs saw paing , or gaolong vs carlos or even the connecter vs mukakku I can keep going and prove every single one


Dratovir_the_Lost

Well I never tried to say I hold absolute truth, but I still feel like recent fights are more about making every move "Special" with flashback and exposition, and less about actual fights with blows being traded. Once again I'm not saying every fights are like this


ImaginaryIdiot

You made this animation as good as it could have been with what the fight offered. The suplex impact is super satisfying but yeah now that you see it play out in full it kinda sucked huh


ghin

thank you! Yeah...Hiraku did the same hit a few times and a kick and that was it.


BestBoogerBugger

Can you imagine if either of these two won the tournament? "Great work, buddy. Now you have to fight an imbincible Lovecraftian human entity, that passed it's concioussness through centuries, so much so that it developed split personality and can literally manipulate it's bodily functions like it has access to Settings on the Menu. Also, it knows martial arts and is long term alcoholic."


OtakuDragonSlayer

LMFAO! Sandwhich really fucked up adding these 2


WindowSubstantial993

No one in the tournament can beat the connector either way and Justin literally one shot his opponent and has two aces left


coolrider2010

That just show how low level this fight is, hiraku pretty much just spam the same strike five times and then get throw into the ground.


ghin

Yeah, this wasn't particularly fun to animate.


jotheblack

But you did a great job with it. You told a story with the sound and animation. It looks like each one of those hits got more powerful than the last. Something that I didn't feel like the Manga did well in explaining.


unhappy-ending

No, it just shows how low the fight quality has become since Asura and even early Omega.


Bteatesthighlander1

Brown and yellow, eh?


ghin

Yeah, I have a bad habit of assuming many characters are blonde (or similar) and using shades of yellow and for a lot of the southeast Asian characters I use various shades of brown. I don't really have a method on how I decide which characters aren't skin tone or hair color for their stick figure color.


Rechogui

To be fair, Kengan characters don't really wear outfits with characteristic colors, so I get it. It is not like Dragon Ball where you can make a orange stick figure for Goku and a blue one for Vegeta


jigthejib82586

True


fabvz

Really liked your work, congrats


ghin

thank you!


sams-347

Noticed your stick figures post from time to time. Being able to see fight somehow animated is a blessing. Your works rock 🫡


ghin

thank you!


BOLverrk

You did his funny little dance at the beginning


Backupaccontforreal

What program do you use for this ? Entertaining as always !


ghin

Toonsquid on iPad, it is a $10 one time purchase and my favorite animation app I've used on iPad (and in general.)


Backupaccontforreal

Thank you!


OtakuDragonSlayer

Damn, you made this fight look great! As always you got an eye for this! You perfectly caught Justin’s whole personality! I LOVE the effort you put into that walkout animation and the slam was AMAZING!


ghin

thank you! I enjoyed animating Justin dance and I'm glad the way I animated the suplex is being well-received.


Ancient-Act8573

Awesome, also really sells the idea that this should’ve been just one chapter lol


ghin

thank you! A one chapter fight would have been very funny


2jzpizza

Sick animation I liked the duck under and really emphasizing the standing upright hip toss and impact it made.


ghin

thank you!


Immediate-Pilot-6332

You ve improved once again


ghin

thank you!


Low_Percentage5296

damn I LOVE stick fights if indeed you're the artist that made these, then you deserve all the respect and more


ghin

thank you! I have made a lot of these and I did make this one. You can see my profile for a lot more.


Rechogui

You work fast! Not like much happened in this fight but still, greet stuff as always.


ghin

thank you! I did this one week by week and it wasn't hard to animate when it was like five of the same punches and a kick and a throw, so I tried to make the suplex extra flashy.


Therascalrumpus

Very well done, especially considering what you had to work with lol.


ghin

thank you!


makak0PE

i love the animation when justin enters on scene


ghin

thank you!


disappointingfool

was that genuinely 3 chapters of content


ShenWulongXYan69

Dang, there wasn't really anything too this fight huh? Justin was punched A couple times, grappled, kicked in the face and then won via suplex


Budget-Oil4356

The floss is amazing


ghin

Lobinhu

Talented as always, my friend! Keep the good work!

RainonCooper

I just saw this one and I can’t deny I am checking the rest of the ones you’ve made! Which mangas have you done/do you intend to do? Cause I do have some recommendations if you’re curious for more!


ghin

I have done One Piece (Katakuri vs. Luffy, Rob Lucci vs. Luffy), I mostly do Kengan now. I did Strike It Rich last week and I plan to do a lot more Kengan and some Strike It Rich. I would like to do Baki but I have a lot of requests as it is for most fights in Kengan. Let me know what other series you'd recommend and I'll check them out and see if I can animate them.


RainonCooper

Well the ones that seem more fitting are stuff like Tenkaichi Tokyo Duel Either way I'm sure you'll enjoy them since you enjoy the others you mentioned! I've also followed you and watched most of your previous work! Great stuff


ghin

I enjoy both of those manga. If I were to do a fight from them, probably the Hanzo Kojiro fight - I loved that fight.


RainonCooper

Oh btw, if you perchance know some other tournament or mixed martial arts mangas you’d recommend, do let me know! They’re my favourite and I’m already following like 10, but the more the better! Ps my favourite so far was Choko vs the sword Saint. I did not think the outcome would be the way it was. Like that specific little thing actually mattered


NauMed94

Does anyone have the stick fights of the other fights


ghin

You can see more on my profile or on my [YouTube channel.](https://youtube.com/@ghin)


Torrempesta

Put it like this I have to say: it's impressive.


ghin

thank you!

NerdKing01

This is essentially a King vs Paul Pheonix fight down to the letter


Nucleoticticboom

Now, animate Kazzy laying pipe like in chapter 1


Cres_4

Waow


GalebBruh

The og fight was so shit bro ;-; wish the next ones don't look boring like the first two, Julius vs Agito looks promising


-Rici-

Really shows how Justin did not deserve to win


FrostyIncrease3329

Hopefully Julius vs kanoh is peak cause the last 2 fights been mid af


Gotprick

Man this fight was so dogshit and soulless


Stunning_Durian_3089

Amazing work! I am so afraid Sandro will make Gao and the finalist of the other bracket lose to Justin to prove how balanced things are between all fighters...


ghin

thank you!
