Thank you SOOOOO Much. This was totally unexpected and the most we ever received in a Super Thanks. This goes a long way in helping us creating longer form content. Thank you
Karo Yoshinari is not a martial artist as other Kengan Fighters are, he is just a Fisherman that go there to save his company. He was just fighting with his willpower and natural strenght to save his Home and everything he knows.
Glad to see our country's Lethwei potrayed brutally and accurately in an anime and seeing u guys breaking it down is a cherry on top. Good Job Chad and Logan!
Lethwei seems perfect as a base martial arts for a tournament like Kengan Ashura. You would certainly meet the necessary conditioning for such an unforgiving scene through Lethwei as a background it seems.
And yes Lethwei is somewhat brutal, it's like what you'd see in a street fight. Thanks for the breakdown, you guys are the best! Definitely my favorite RUclips channel ever
anyone know how to build your body to take hits without getting injured and to knock out your opponent without you getting hurt in the process? I want extremely high amounts of pain tolerance and pain threshold, do intense things like giving hits without getting injured from it, not get knocked out at all kinda like that clip where some fighter kept kicking Rodtang in the face but Rodtang didn't even flinch or move instead he danced to taunt his opponent here: ruclips.net/user/shortsCRbgIadu23U?feature=share , and I want to keep doing intense and physically demanding things for insanely long amounts of time with my limit being far away - or have my limit be non-existent at all if possible - even if I am injured no matter how much pain I'm in. There was a fighting video that became popular because one guy secretly had a knife and stabbed the other in the lung but lung boy carried on like it was nothing and still beat the shit outta knife boy even while bleeding. Also I knew of this guy who does Muay Thai and he made posted a comment on how during a match, his toes were fucked up in the process like one wrapped around the other at some point like ring around the rosie but he still kept kicking and hitting in the match like it didn't happen at all. The actor for Dustin in Stranger Things had broken arm and broken leg at the time when filming Season 1 but he still fully did that scene where he lifted and carried Eleven while running. Like he was just a kid and got broken limbs but still fully carried her around and ran like it's nothing as if she weighed less than paper. I won't do it now but someday if I'm more fit than I am at this point in my life, I wanna learn Lethwei. Thing is I have no gyms or combat people in my area so is there a way to learn, do drills, practice hits, and train Lethhwei at home by yourself? Because there are tons of channels teaching you how to learn and practice boxing first at home and by yourself before you feel like going to a boxing gym so I'm wondering if there's something like that for Lethwei. I want to learn Muay Thai, Muay Boran, kickboxing, BJJ, grappling, judo, wrestling, bareknuckle boxing, jiu-jitsu, all kinds of fighting on the ground, and all kinds of martial arts and combat sports as well so which one should I do first Muay Thai or Lethwei?
@@twentyonetortas5921 If you want to cross paths and mixed other fighting style together, i recommend you go to Muaythai first. 1. Lethwei Headbutt is still a big NO in western competition unlike Muaythai Clinch Knee and Elbow which got more accepting now. Unfortunatly headbutt can lead to getting disqualified other fighting style sparring and match too. 2. Lethwei focus on KO and fight within 2 minutes round. So no chess game and not much plans between fight, more aggressive like risky to get accident during fight which can also shorten your profession life. 3. Muay Boran was original create during war time so it's own full potential is being art of killing by paring with weapon or with bare hand. It also got headbutt like Lethwei but not available anymore today along with those annihilate move (grab and breaking limb like neck arms elbows legs knees even groin attack) and developed become Muaythai as you seen today. This is why Muaythai didn't headbutt (sword pummel is more effective in Muay Boran or headbutt just to knock off clinch) and Lethwei look more brutal because it still didn't get develop like Muaythai. P.S. There is and old story by Kru Muay(Martial Art Teacher) why Lethwei begins practice Headbutt technique because after Muay Boran got created and effective in war time, Lethwei fighter often got cutting an or both arms off. With hopeless to survive even imitate animals headbutt like water buffalo to save their life. (water buffalo is symbols of dumb in SEA like donkey in western)
@@KP_Casablanka I highly doubt that story of yours since lethwei already existed in 12th century way before Thailand was founded in the 13th century. Most likely that dude who told that story made that shit up as some nationalism shit.
Man, I just love these longer videos, and seeing dudes break down the mechanics of how to effectively beat the shit out of each other never gets old, but the best part of this series is Logan's resigned acceptance to being the punching bag of an enthusiastic Chad. That little head shake Logan did while Chad had him in the bear hug made me crack up. Good shit as always, thanks for making the wait for Kengan's 3rd season more bearable!
Love that Chad mentions Karo not employing much fighting knowledge, since the character isn't a fighter by trade. Even that harpoon attack they commented on in the beginning is meant to demonstrate that he's a fisherman first and foremost, and he hasn't internalized the intricacies of fighting, but just happens to be a huge, durable guy capable of taking and dishing out damage.
regarding the grade, we have to be fair on Karo: he's not a martial artist. he's a whaler. he in no way has any martial arts training, he's just making use of his superhuman abilities in the vain hope it'll help keep his fishing company afloat.
Heck he was originally suppose to throw the fight but he couldn’t follow the script after hearing of what will become of their port. He risked death or worst just to fight saw paing and defeat the company that wished to tear down his way of life.
I mean, a few of the dudes weren't really martial artists. Julius definitely wasn't a fighter. That big dude from Nepal wasn't a martial artist either, was he?
ayy its you and yeah kengan ashura is kind of like Baki the grappler in that from the get go its so far outside the realm of what kind of punishment humans can take you kind of accept it. no one in universe follows the rules and its stupid fun.
03:15. I find it interesting he went with a jab to the liver instead of a cross. I don't know if he was just saving energy for later on in the fight via a rope a dope or some other similar strategy, or if he was just not taking the fight that seriously and didn't put the extra effort in to add extra injury to the liver by using the cross and shoulder pivot to throw more force into the liver. Or maybe he's just running on instinct and/or muscle memory, I don't know. Could use some feedback on the matter from the comments section and/or the Channel Fight Coordinators/Instructors themselves.
Thank you Kengan community! Are you excited for the upcoming Season 3? It's been one year since our last Kengan Ashura breakdown and we are back with Saw Paing vs Karo Yoshinari. If you're new to the channel, welcome home and make sure to subscribe and tell your friends about our channel. And if you're a regular subscriber, we love you! Let us know which fight scene we should breakdown next!
12:59 I know Chad waited for this moment to show Logan how much he appreciates him just to lock him in with a bear hug and I'd like a bear hug from Chad too 🥲
I just love the frame when they're explaining how he trained his bones to be so dense where there's a guy swinging a sledgehammer right at a child's face
Always great to see more videos from this channel, and another Kengan episode is just the icing on the cake. I love the easy banter between the two of you, overall a really good video and I swear I learn more every time I rewatch your episodes. I absolutely can't wait for you guys to break down Gaolang vs Agito and Kuroki vs Agito, those fights are just so ridiculously hype. "Saw Paing could have used a headbutt" made me laugh because Saw Paing's Hammer of Burma is sending Karo straight to the other world. I'm wondering if you guys have any comments on the realism of applications of Karo's fisherman-based skills to martial arts? Like the judo chop being a method to paralyse fish used on Saw Paing, etc. Also, considering y'all do manga breakdowns...Yumigahama vs Misasa feels like a video where Logan might enjoy himself, just pretend he's actually wielding a weapon there.
Yo I'm lovin this community feel yall got goin on, like I really mess with this series for a long time and I gotta say this is starting to get bigger and better. Thank you guys so much for continuing and leaving us so much knowledge to learn from the shows we love.
Yes! Been waiting for this breakdown. Saw Paing is by far my most favorite kengan character. Cool martial art, cool gimmick, and cool personality. Plus he cooks! Can't get any better than that
THANK YOU so so much for the Super Thanks! These go a long way in helping fund these breakdowns! Let us know which fight scene we should breakdown next!
you might have single handedly guaranteed us another kengan asura breakdown. From one fan to another, you've really given back to our community. Thank you!
Thanks for tipping! Really helps the creators and fans of these videos. I don't mean to discredit your donation whatsoever, but I believe some people may have mistaken the Philippine peso for USD.😅 Still great tho!
Makes sense on the grade. Yoshinari is a strongman/fisherman, and he fights using a combination of brute strength and hunting techniques. There's also the extreme version of this character named Julius Reinholt who is a bodybuilder who uses nothing but raw power.
'Are you gonna balance on your big toe?' I'M DEAD, I shouldn't have laughed that much but here I am, imagining Chad doing it! So hyped for another Kengan breakdown. Saw Paing is one of my favourite characters in the show. Keep them coming guys :)
What I love about Kengan is you've got these very realistic, grounded styles, combined with these absolutely mad, out there styles. Make's for interesting matchups.
Thank you! I'm glad we can make it happen for you. Feel free to share with your friends so we can continue to grow. What other fight scene should we breakdown next?
Saw Paing is one my top 3 favorite Kengan characters. Awesome once again that you guys bring attention to this anime/manga. I can tell it's exciting for you guys too!🔥
Beautiful breakdown! I’m loving the Burmese bare knuckle boxing info. It sounds CRAZY, and I think I’ve only heard of it once. The guys who do that are insanely brave to go at it with no protection for their hands and head! 😳
This fight and Kaolan (the Thai boxer) are my favorite fights of the series. Kengan Asura is the only reason I still have Netflix, at this point, simply because of how aesthetically pleasing the fights are to me.
Awesome video! I've been loving the shorter judo breakdowns, but I really like the long-form style videos where you break down techniques in a more methodical fashion. From Kengan I'd have to push forward my personal favorite, Hatsumi Sen vs the Shapershifter guy, or the English character who fights Raian with the mixed jiu-jitsu, boxing, and aikido style.
Always great watching your videos, especially these Kengan Ashura breakdowns. I've seen the show, and as someone who has had some martial arts training, in Tae Kwon Do, which doesn't really focus too much on grappling, although there are some practical techniques that utilize mild joint manipulation, I digress. It's nice to see these techniques broken down by professionals. Having a base martial arts style that you're trained in is all well and good, but by analyzing and learning takedowns, strikes, and grapples/holds from other martial arts styles, you give yourself exponentially more options should you ever find yourself in a situation where you need to defend yourself or your loved ones.
This is the fight that convinced me to check out Kengan. I love that the concept is effectively “what if the world warriors from street fighter used legitimate martial arts/combat sports?”
This is really some of my favorite content on the internet. Seeing the two of you share your knowledge and interpret these fights never gets old. It's really cool that one of you specializes in armed combat and the other in unarmed, it makes both of you very active in the videos and ultimately makes the breakdowns better.
@@ScenicFights The first thing that comes to mind for me is Upgrade. There's a couple pretty ridiculous fights in that movie, with and without weapons. The problem is, I'm fairly certain there are almost no real martial arts moves in them, but that might actually make for a more interesting breakdown.
So glad to see a full breakdown again & a return to Kengan Ashura 🤘🏻 Would love to see a breakdown of the final fight in Best of the Best with Phillip and Simon Rhee and the philosophy of Taekwondo from Tommy Lee vs Dae Han. 👍🏻🤘🏻
Oh man, i can't wait for the next season. Some of the best fights take place there, like Muteba vs Seki, Saw Paing vs Rei and Gaolang vs Kanoh. There are some more amazing fights there (Kiryu vs Kuroki being my favorite), but those 3 seen the most realistic and could make for some great content from you.
Great video! I love watching your guy’s new videos and I love learning about martial arts. I appreciate what you guys are doing with your platform and hope to see this channel be super popular one day. Keep up the great work.
After watching multiple times, I can say: Amazing video! ;) You never disappoint... The growth your channel has gone through in the last year is amazing and I wish you all the best for the future! Thank you for always entertaining us!
I honestly like how you guys say what's not realistic and how you should do in reality in long form videos which is hard to find in shorts but still love them all!
"That might be a Patreon thing", lol. Lovin' the coverage of this crazy anime. Saw Paing's secret weapon? The most important element of training: don't forget to smile! Show your opponent how much you are enjoying yourself. It's the nicest mind f&ck you can give em'. Super Inspirational, keep up the great work
Burmese here...Paing is pronounced "Pine" (without the emphasis for the P word ) rather than "Peng" or "Paing". It makes me happy to see that Lethwei is getting some recognition !
I could watch your breakdowns all day long. Especially now, after breaking my fifth metatarsal while running through tall grass. But seriously, I love them. Even more than my bones, apparently 😁
@@ScenicFights Thank you :) Indeed they do, having a perfect combination of information and humor. I have so much free time now, might as well re-watch everything on your channel. Keep up the good work!
I'm glad you mentioned the headbutting at the end of the breakdown. I have not seen this fight before, but when you mentioned that Saw Paing was a Lethwei fighter, I kinda thought the fight would end with him headbutting Karo and then Karo's head cracking open. I mean it already looks like Karo had cracks on his head. That would have been my ending. Love you guys, like always
He doesn't use it out of pure respect for Karo. He respected Karo's decision to keep fighting even though Karo know that he is not a fighter but just a person defending what's important to him.
I always enjoy when you guys get into the mechanics of how a lock works, like what joint is doing what, and how pushing the head away makes your hold weaker, its super interesting how so much of martial arts is just split second physics calculations XD
intresting thing on karo being able to stand on his toe like that karo is a fisherman he spent so long at the sea that his body now sees that as natural so he basicly gets landsick which is like sea sick but on land so when saw paing hit him in the head it actually made karo better cause now his brain feels like its on sea helping him with his land sickness thats how karo can stand in that weird position and still punch at incredible power its due to him being used to that kind of actions due to the enviorment at the sea
Always good to see an upload! And great to see Chad's striking knowledge, I feel like it rarely comes up in breakdowns since he loves his grapples so much
I was waiting for this, Saw Paing the man! Also, it's worth noting down that Karo isn't a martial artist, he's a fisherman. That's why he uses spear-like blows, and has that superhuman equilibrium.
The Commentators in Kengan Ashura are actually thankfully providing breakdowns whenever we see a character display some kind of super-human ability. They do frequently provide some form of background to it and how it _may_ be possible in theory. So I'm curious if Chad and Logan have subtitles or something for those, or if they're seeing them at all. (i.e. Karo's balance and toe strength @7:04). I suppose in the long run, depending on what it is it may not amount to much in a breakdown. (^～^;)ゞ
I've been waiting for so long for another episode of fight scenes breakdown! It is so fun to watch from experts to comment about fight scenes even though I have no clue about fighting. It wouldn't be that good if Chad and Logan weren't there. Love you guys !
It’s always nice to be back with another Kengan Ashura breakdown, in case you missed it, we also did a Moon Knight breakdown: ruclips.net/video/W6OXvnrq5fA/видео.html
Oh, my. I was waiting for this! I had the fortune to try lethwei a bit at one point to brush up on my striking and I have the outmost respect for those guys ever since. Even under the modernized ruleset it breeds insanely tough and pragmatic fighters, and traditional lethwei is just something else. It's always great to see such an underappreciated martial art getting love, and both the series and you guys did it justice. So, that said... Saw Paing vs Mikazuchi Rei when? 😁
I been practising for some months now MMA. Despite how much people love stricking I want to improve my defence as much as i can and seeing how he just slides into his legs drives me crazy.
You know it! Make sure to share our Kengan breakdown with the Kengan community and your friends! Let us know which other match we should breakdown next.
Glad the algorithm brought you back! Don’t forget to subscribe and get your friends to subscribe too! What’s other fight scenes should we breakdown next?
These guys are pretty good. The breakdown here makes sense and is interesting to think about. For the fight scene I would say the big thing with the neck blow near the end is that Karo is just some big guy who doesn't seem highly experienced in a fight. So him just getting so desperate he does a bear hug to end it as soon as possible only to not really know how to follow it up that well makes sense. You can also kind of tell Saw Paing did that strike as soon as he could too. So while that wasn't a great follow up it feels like you could see it in a high pressure situation where both are trying to get a finishing hit as fast as they can before they run out of strength.
Here's to many more. Thanks for all you do!
Thank you SOOOOO Much. This was totally unexpected and the most we ever received in a Super Thanks. This goes a long way in helping us creating longer form content. Thank you
Karo Yoshinari is not a martial artist as other Kengan Fighters are, he is just a Fisherman that go there to save his company. He was just fighting with his willpower and natural strenght to save his Home and everything he knows.
and he was supposed to lose it on purpose
@@TheJarric Yeah, another thing. But he knew that even if he lost the Match Toyo Electrics would takeover his company. Big Heart guy Yoshinari Karo
That's all good but...show me an "advance"
@@tonyredgrave2611 ruclips.net/video/h0NG7DxV5iE/видео.html
True but he did have fighting style special to him
That little shake of Logan’s head as Chad bear hugs him and starts wiggling him around was perfect. It gave that feeling of “just, why man? Just why?”
It's hilarious (and cute).
BEST bromance of 2022!
The shaking had me rolling!!!!!!!
@@ScenicFightsI just found this channel and I already love it😂
Glad to see our country's Lethwei potrayed brutally and accurately in an anime and seeing u guys breaking it down is a cherry on top. Good Job Chad and Logan!

Lethwei seems perfect as a base martial arts for a tournament like Kengan Ashura. You would certainly meet the necessary conditioning for such an unforgiving scene through Lethwei as a background it seems.
Fuck man Saw Paing lost. I was rooting for him.
And yes Lethwei is somewhat brutal, it's like what you'd see in a street fight. Thanks for the breakdown, you guys are the best! Definitely my favorite RUclips channel ever

Excited for 3rd season. It will be packed with great fights. Gaolang vs Kanoh probably best fight in KA at all
As an aspiring Martial Artist, this channel and series, Kengan Ashura, I'm always excited to see both of these come together
Raian vs mokichi robinson
I'm really excited for season 3, can't wait until fights like agito vs gaolang and other bangers get broken down
12:59 I know Chad waited for this moment to show Logan how much he appreciates him just to lock him in with a bear hug and I'd like a bear hug from Chad too 🥲
We all want bear hugs from Chad haha.
Absolutely love you Scenic Fight guys and so happy to see more Kengan breakdowns! The hype is real!!!
im amazed from how much knowledge you can attain from Scenic Fights. the breakdowns are entertaining but the lessons are gold and worth taking notes.
We love reading comments like this. That’s our goal, to make these fun and educational.
I just love the frame when they're explaining how he trained his bones to be so dense where there's a guy swinging a sledgehammer right at a child's face

Yes! Been waiting for this breakdown. Saw Paing is by far my most favorite kengan character. Cool martial art, cool gimmick, and cool personality. Plus he cooks! Can't get any better than that
Also in bonus chapters, Saw Paing actually sings soft ballads outside of the ring. Gaolang only knows his national anthem.
I love that you guys touched quiet a bit on what can't be used in a real fight, makes the video feel like a thorough break down!
That's our goal with all our fight scene breakdowns. Happy to hear you enjoyed!

Thank you! I'm glad we can make it happen for you. Feel free to share with your friends so we can continue to grow. What other fight scene should we breakdown next?
Saw Paing is one my top 3 favorite Kengan characters. Awesome once again that you guys bring attention to this anime/manga. I can tell it's exciting for you guys too!🔥
We love it! Can’t wait to do more matches.
this was great!!! These breakdowns are so well explained!
Thank you! That’s our goal to make it fun and easily understandable for the everyone.
Beautiful breakdown! I’m loving the Burmese bare knuckle boxing info. It sounds CRAZY, and I think I’ve only heard of it once. The guys who do that are insanely brave to go at it with no protection for their hands and head! 😳
Incredibly tough fighters for sure!
This fight and Kaolan (the Thai boxer) are my favorite fights of the series. Kengan Asura is the only reason I still have Netflix, at this point, simply because of how aesthetically pleasing the fights are to me.
Kengan Ashura def has the most realistic (and most diverse) showcase of anime martial arts.
Awesome video! I've been loving the shorter judo breakdowns, but I really like the long-form style videos where you break down techniques in a more methodical fashion. From Kengan I'd have to push forward my personal favorite, Hatsumi Sen vs the Shapershifter guy, or the English character who fights Raian with the mixed jiu-jitsu, boxing, and aikido style.
REALLY hope they cover the new season. There are some serious BANGER fights this season
Love these longer breakdowns. The anime ones in particular but they're all good. You guys did an awesome job
Thank you! Love seeing you here all the time! Let us know which other anime fight scene you'd like to see us breakdown next!
Always great watching your videos, especially these Kengan Ashura breakdowns. I've seen the show, and as someone who has had some martial arts training, in Tae Kwon Do, which doesn't really focus too much on grappling, although there are some practical techniques that utilize mild joint manipulation, I digress. It's nice to see these techniques broken down by professionals. Having a base martial arts style that you're trained in is all well and good, but by analyzing and learning takedowns, strikes, and grapples/holds from other martial arts styles, you give yourself exponentially more options should you ever find yourself in a situation where you need to defend yourself or your loved ones.
This is the fight that convinced me to check out Kengan. I love that the concept is effectively “what if the world warriors from street fighter used legitimate martial arts/combat sports?”
Saw Paing vs Karo Yoshinari is such a good fight.
@@ScenicFights There's really no bad fights in the anihilation tournament, the finals are going to get crazy good tough
Seriously, why isn't this channel more popular?
This is really some of my favorite content on the internet. Seeing the two of you share your knowledge and interpret these fights never gets old. It's really cool that one of you specializes in armed combat and the other in unarmed, it makes both of you very active in the videos and ultimately makes the breakdowns better.
Thank you for this awesome comment! It means a lot to us. Let us know which other fight scene we should breakdown next!
@@ScenicFights The first thing that comes to mind for me is Upgrade. There's a couple pretty ridiculous fights in that movie, with and without weapons. The problem is, I'm fairly certain there are almost no real martial arts moves in them, but that might actually make for a more interesting breakdown.
So glad to see a full breakdown again & a return to Kengan Ashura 🤘🏻
Would love to see a breakdown of the final fight in Best of the Best with Phillip and Simon Rhee and the philosophy of Taekwondo from Tommy Lee vs Dae Han. 👍🏻🤘🏻
Oh man, i can't wait for the next season. Some of the best fights take place there, like Muteba vs Seki, Saw Paing vs Rei and Gaolang vs Kanoh. There are some more amazing fights there (Kiryu vs Kuroki being my favorite), but those 3 seen the most realistic and could make for some great content from you.
Yes! I cannot wait.
I so missed this! Welcome back and hopefully more long version breakdown from both of you!
We plan on doing more long breakdowns so make sure to share this with your friends and the Kengan Ashura community!
Great video! I love watching your guy’s new videos and I love learning about martial arts. I appreciate what you guys are doing with your platform and hope to see this channel be super popular one day. Keep up the great work.
Thank you Nathan for the kind words! We hope so too :)
After watching multiple times, I can say: Amazing video! ;) You never disappoint... The growth your channel has gone through in the last year is amazing and I wish you all the best for the future! Thank you for always entertaining us!
And every time you comment, we really appreciate it. Thank you so much.
The shorts are great appetizers but nothing hits like a full breakdown. Love the video, great breakdown.
That feeling of finding a RUclips channel that you should have been subbed to at its inception...
We are just happy you finally found us. Make sure to get your friends to subscribe too and let us know which fight scene we should breakdown next!
I honestly like how you guys say what's not realistic and how you should do in reality in long form videos which is hard to find in shorts but still love them all!
"That might be a Patreon thing", lol. Lovin' the coverage of this crazy anime. Saw Paing's secret weapon? The most important element of training: don't forget to smile! Show your opponent how much you are enjoying yourself. It's the nicest mind f&ck you can give em'. Super Inspirational, keep up the great work
Saw Paing indeed is always having a good time
Saw Paing when he sees Scenic Fights break down his fight: "YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
"Why is it always me?" Must've been running through Logan's head during that hug
Burmese here...Paing is pronounced "Pine" (without the emphasis for the P word ) rather than "Peng" or "Paing". It makes me happy to see that Lethwei is getting some recognition !
Thanks! We went with the English pronunciations of Saw Paing from Netflix but thank you for the correction!
this is a wild fight scene i don't know why i didn't watch this before it's incredible to watch
I could watch your breakdowns all day long. Especially now, after breaking my fifth metatarsal while running through tall grass. But seriously, I love them. Even more than my bones, apparently 😁
Wishing you a quick recovery! But happy to hear our videos make you feel better :)
@@ScenicFights Thank you :) Indeed they do, having a perfect combination of information and humor. I have so much free time now, might as well re-watch everything on your channel. Keep up the good work!
I absolutely love the breakdowns but the banter brings everything to another level lol
Oh man I’ve been waiting for this fight. Thank you guys for making a video in it!!!
Happy we can make this Kengan Ashura breakdown finally happen for you! Let us know which other anime fight scene we should breakdown next.
Instinctively thought it was a short, got insanely hype when I saw the vids 17 mins!
There’s too much good stuff in this fight to be a short. Hope you enjoy watching! Let us know what you think of this breakdown.
LESSS GOOO.
I've been waiting for this since the Cosmo v Akoya video
I'm glad you mentioned the headbutting at the end of the breakdown.
I have not seen this fight before, but when you mentioned that Saw Paing was a Lethwei fighter, I kinda thought the fight would end with him headbutting Karo and then Karo's head cracking open. I mean it already looks like Karo had cracks on his head. That would have been my ending.
Love you guys, like always
The character does use headbutts in his next fight.
@@jonathanperrott2298 ah, I gotta start watching this anime.
He doesn't use it out of pure respect for Karo. He respected Karo's decision to keep fighting even though Karo know that he is not a fighter but just a person defending what's important to him.
I always enjoy when you guys get into the mechanics of how a lock works, like what joint is doing what, and how pushing the head away makes your hold weaker, its super interesting how so much of martial arts is just split second physics calculations XD
intresting thing on karo being able to stand on his toe like that
karo is a fisherman
he spent so long at the sea that his body now sees that as natural so he basicly gets landsick which is like sea sick but on land so when saw paing hit him in the head it actually made karo better cause now his brain feels like its on sea helping him with his land sickness
thats how karo can stand in that weird position and still punch at incredible power
its due to him being used to that kind of actions due to the enviorment at the sea
I'm glad this video popped up on my feed..had no idea you guys existed..great stuff - subbed!
Welcome to our channel. I’m so glad we popped up in your feed :) Let us know which other fight scene we should breakdown next!
I love your passionate explanation . Thank you!
Thank you! We really do enjoy making these. Let us know which breakdown we should do next!
Hoping you guys do breakdowns when season 3 comes out! I’ve read the manga, and there’s gonna be MANY more amazing fights and choreography.
Finally a review of the best fight
Always good to see an upload! And great to see Chad's striking knowledge, I feel like it rarely comes up in breakdowns since he loves his grapples so much
It’s always nice to give him the chance to show his stand up game.
Ive been waiting to come across someone talking about this show, it’s amazing
We love Kengan Ashura! We have more Kengan Ashura breakdowns for you to watch on our channel!
@@ScenicFights i cant wait to get more of that show, only up to part 2 was out last i checked on it, such an amazing show
I’ve been waiting on a long video for so long. Thank u.
Thank you for being so patient!
Third season coming soon , can't wait for more videos from you guys
We cannot wait for more Kengan Ashura.
Finally a long video and its amazing. Great breakdown :D
We love doing long breakdowns! In case you missed it, we also did Moon Knight Kali recently too: ruclips.net/video/W6OXvnrq5fA/видео.html
love this breakdowns from experts
When The Fang vs Gaolang gets animated, love to see a breakdown.
Perfect, I’ve been waiting for this.
Yess a proper length vid! I love the shorts but I live for these fully fledge breakdowns 🔥
I was waiting for this, Saw Paing the man!
Also, it's worth noting down that Karo isn't a martial artist, he's a fisherman. That's why he uses spear-like blows, and has that superhuman equilibrium.
The Commentators in Kengan Ashura are actually thankfully providing breakdowns whenever we see a character display some kind of super-human ability. They do frequently provide some form of background to it and how it _may_ be possible in theory. So I'm curious if Chad and Logan have subtitles or something for those, or if they're seeing them at all. (i.e. Karo's balance and toe strength @7:04).
I suppose in the long run, depending on what it is it may not amount to much in a breakdown. (^～^;)ゞ
yo love you guys's content been watching since last year keep up the great work :)
Thanks for the support so far! We really appreciate it. Let us know which other fight scene we should breakdown next!
I've been waiting for so long for another episode of fight scenes breakdown! It is so fun to watch from experts to comment about fight scenes even though I have no clue about fighting. It wouldn't be that good if Chad and Logan weren't there. Love you guys !
Good to see these long form vids! Love em! ✊️
Good to see you here and enjoying them as always 💪
The way I see Chad face in the thumbnail he seems eager to bully Logan again lol
Ayeeeee, good to have you guys back
It’s always nice to be back with another Kengan Ashura breakdown, in case you missed it, we also did a Moon Knight breakdown: ruclips.net/video/W6OXvnrq5fA/видео.html
Great video! love you guys and I cannot wait for the release of season 3!!! Kengan Ashura is so damn cool.
Kengan Ashura is amazing!
Awesome! Can’t wait for season 3🌊
Oh, my. I was waiting for this!
I had the fortune to try lethwei a bit at one point to brush up on my striking and I have the outmost respect for those guys ever since. Even under the modernized ruleset it breeds insanely tough and pragmatic fighters, and traditional lethwei is just something else. It's always great to see such an underappreciated martial art getting love, and both the series and you guys did it justice.
So, that said... Saw Paing vs Mikazuchi Rei when? 😁
When it gets animated lol. But I agree, Lethwei is a beautiful martial arts.
cant wait for kengan omega to be animated great video as always
Edit: also Karo is a fisherman which is why he didnt show much martial arts
Thanks for another Kengan Asura episode, the series rocks!
Nice seeing you here as always! We can’t wait for the next season of Kengan Ashura for more breakdowns!
Oh man I'm so glad you guys did this one. I hope you do Gaolan vs Kaneda next time.
Really enjoy how you guys are leaning into the silliness specially with Logan' reluctantly agreeing to be a test dummy lol
Haha we just want to make these fun and educational for anyone
I been practising for some months now MMA. Despite how much people love stricking I want to improve my defence as much as i can and seeing how he just slides into his legs drives me crazy.
Glad you guys came back to this series, hope to see another Kengan vid in the future!
You know it! Make sure to share our Kengan breakdown with the Kengan community and your friends! Let us know which other match we should breakdown next.
Third season of Kengan is coming and Scenic Fights do another Kengan breakdown. Life is good
This is the best break down I've ever seen or most fights. Definitely in anime. This video makes me want to train.
Train! You got this.
I’m glad the algorithm brought me back to you guys. I forgot to subscribe last time
Glad the algorithm brought you back! Don’t forget to subscribe and get your friends to subscribe too! What’s other fight scenes should we breakdown next?
These guys are pretty good. The breakdown here makes sense and is interesting to think about. For the fight scene I would say the big thing with the neck blow near the end is that Karo is just some big guy who doesn't seem highly experienced in a fight. So him just getting so desperate he does a bear hug to end it as soon as possible only to not really know how to follow it up that well makes sense. You can also kind of tell Saw Paing did that strike as soon as he could too. So while that wasn't a great follow up it feels like you could see it in a high pressure situation where both are trying to get a finishing hit as fast as they can before they run out of strength.
man i missed you 2 love this hope to see more much love
We aren’t going anywhere, and we plan to upload more and more. Thank you so much for the support
