okay then, what was touka's excuse? she got lol blitzed by ikki and yet she was still giving stella a run for her money afterwards in the following volume. if anything she was downplayed for not sparring against ikki even though he only beat her because she didn't dodge. in fact kuraudo was also downplayed in v4 as having been put down by ikki when by all accounts, it was a draw.

of course it's up to the author at the end of the day, but assuming the author does use him in the future, there would be certain obstacles to doing so. first and foremost; how would he reestaablish their rivalry outside of the tournament setting. i mentioned sara because knowing kuraudo he's want to even up the score before picking things back up with ikki.

@b214 that's a start, but i'm also thinking something along the lines of teleporting. he can already do this to a certain extent with marginal counter, but to at least match sara he'd need to move fast enough to produce after images
