Yujae beat Speed up so badly that it genuinely seemed impossible for him to actually be good

Jinyoung is genuinely top1 when it comes to being a diabolical ass person

Kojima Brothers had cool lanky designs and werent even a stepping stone for Seonji who didn't need any masteries to low diff, even on the recent storyline they were offscreened by tom who likely wasnt using animal instinct or ultimate king mannerism

Yeowool is common sense, she was the song of a pre gen big shot who could go relative to DBT Paecheon, she could've been at least on HFG 2nd gen level

Black workers were a cool design and concept just to get foddered off the next chapter, people were theorizing the members could have consisted of characters from other PTJ works like North Gangbum no. 4 and 5 or some former New Internation Gang members

Seokdu was very strong for the point of story he was inintroduced, but unlike taesoo, he was never shown fighting again besides flashbacks. If he had, he would have been upscaled naturally like other characters or maybe even gotten a unique skill. He might actually get these powerups now that he joined Jake Kim's alliance

Similarly to Seokdu, Jihan and Jibeom werent upscaled with the rest of the 2nd generation. In fact they were only strategic players in 1st affiliate and didnt have a chance to shine in terms of fights, Jihan better come back at least a quarter as strong as jichang

Theories are wild i mean wtf is this this is not a theory this is eww

The author may hide spoilers within the dialogue of less hyped-up chapters.

In chapter 531, when Lee Jihoon asks Hyung Suk what he thinks about the fact that Choi Dong Soo’s end felt "empty," Hyung Suk replies:

• “그래서, 앞으로 악을 막으려면 그들보다 빨리 움직여야 한다고 느꼈습니다.”

This translates to: "That’s why I felt that, to stop evil in the future, I need to act faster than they do." Lee Jihoon replies, "그게 박형석씨의 길이에요" ("This is your path, Mr. Park Hyung-seok"), using the word "길" (*gil*).

To "sense and act faster than evil," one must know "what lies deep within someone’s heart", reading an intention before it manifests into action.

The turning point lies in the realization that "all evil is an action, every action stems from an intention, and evil is inherently violent, much like in a fight, where evil strikes with the force of a physical blow."

The name of Hyung-seok’s path is *Uijung* (의중), a Korean term meaning "intention," "mind," or "purpose." It is composed of the characters 意 (*ui*), signifying intention or idea, and 中 (*jung*), meaning center or "within."

This path could be interpreted as a question: "What does someone hold deep within their heart?"

The author uses Lee Jihoon to reiterate that "acting faster than the wicked to punish evil" is, in fact, Hyung-seok’s own path.

The author even has the character remark, "I think I’ve said too much."

During this same sequence, which revisits the Busan arc, Hyung-seok’s true objective is to meet Jinrang, seeking to understand "what someone like Jinrang holds deep within his heart."

He discovers that Jinrang was actually a potential ally who had discerned Lee Jihoon’s true intentions. Yet, due to his own weakness, Jinrang loses to Kitae.

Much like his experience with Choi Dong-soo, Hyung-seok fails to "act faster than Kitae to prevent the evil that would unfold in the future", resulting in Jinrang losing his arm to Kitae.

The author takes the "raw concept" behind Hyung-seok’s path to define the character’s destiny, then flips that very destiny to serve as the thematic foundation for his path in the subsequent arc. (Incheon)

This fulfills what Lee Jihoon said:

“Jinrang will be the next Choi Dong Soo.” Just as Choi Dong Soo lost his arm, Jinrang has literally become like him.

If we follow this pattern to try and predict past events by looking at the future, it suggests that Kitae tore off Jinrang’s arm because he refused to submit and in this context, anyone who doesn’t submit is a traitor.

Perhaps it was Kim Gapryong who tore off Choi Dong Soo’s arm, after all. Dong Soo failed to uphold his own convictions and, in doing so, became a traitor.

Have you noticed that the author might hide spoilers within the most mundane dialogue, in those generic chapters that often go unnoticed?

If you’re looking for clues to predict what might happen in future chapters, examining the past can offer hints about what lies ahead.

The “secret” is to use AI to translate directly from the original Korean, specifically focusing on character names, ability names, or any dialogue that sounds strange or confusing. Don't underestimate Korean words; they have other meanings.

The spoilers are often hidden in the details

You mean to tell me that a doctor passed by, saw him lying on the ground with his bleeding(?) balls, and just said "Yeah he can't have kids" and fcking left? Didn't even treat the man.

Personally,I want to see more of Luha and Johan

And The Nerfs They Were Under (gimme nerf fighters or i retire)

Jinyoung does not have full body overcome. His overcome is confined to his right fist like pre Kenzo fight gapryong.

So, obviously, FBO Gapryong has far better overcome than HFW jinyoung.

Jinyoung was at most,copying pre Kenzo Gaps level of punches.

But we know that ain't true because it was a PRIME GAP tier punch. Therefore, obviously superior to FBO gap.

How can Jinyoungs overcome punch be stronger than FBO gap without him copying prime gapryongs physicality.

Not to mention,it would make shingen Jinyoungs strongest copy. Which is also untrue. Shingen has the best techniques in the verse,the last couple chapters made it clear. Shingens kishin seiken would obviously be stronger than a pre Kenzo fight gapryong level punch. Without stats copy,Shingen copy>Gap copy because shingens techniques are that much better.

Not to mention,what is he copying about gapryong if not his stats. His overcome??? Clearly not since Jinyoungs overcome isn't prime gap level(no FBO),so what the fuck was it?

Like no shintaro isn't fucking gonna kill the flower girl. Shingen,the HEAD, wouldn't want that. Not following the orders of the HEAD is like the no.1 violation of the rules,shintaro is a rules guy

The yamazaki are NOT gonna violate his authority🥀🥀

Shingen is not some mechanical tool with no say in his clans decision whatsoever,it was literally his idea to conquer the world🥀🥀

Ptj what are you even writing 😭😭

1. KITAE vs jichang (win)

2. Kitae vs allied (win)

3. Kitae vs Jinrang (win)

4. Kitae vs pathniel (win)

5. Kitae vs mirror king (win)

6. Kitae vs ui lil Daniel (win)

7. Kitae vs path Jinyoung (win)

Kitae Kim [100% win rate]

Just come to my mind.
