Chapter 101 revealed that Hayami Masaki was a clone of late Meguro Masaki, thereby explaining to us why he kept smiling even after taking the fatal hits.
The tables had been turned, and Hayami was fighting toe to toe with Jurota. But, can he overcome the drawbacks of Meguro Masaki and emerge as the ‘Ultimate Fighter?’
We bring you the latest chapter updates for this manga.
1. Chapter 102 Discussions & Predictions
Chapter 101 will continue with the eighth round of the tournament between Hayami Masaki and Arashiyama Jurota. Hayami is now fighting Jurota, and he clearly has an advantage since he doesn’t feel any pain.
I have to admit that things didn’t go as I expected. I never thought that a fighter who had caught Kuroki Gensai’s attention could be pushed to this extent.
Being a judoka, Jurota will never resort to kicks or punches, but the same rule doesn’t apply to Hayami. He has kicked Jurota multiple times doing him a considerable amount of damage.
But that’s not all; just like Meguro Masaki, Hayami’s nervous system has been altered in a way that he feels immense pleasure when he gets hurt instead of feeling any pain.
This ability surely helps him strike back stronger after every fall. But at the same time, he doesn’t know when to stop and the human body will eventually breakdown after reaching a certain limit. A few years ago, Meguro Masaki lost his life to Muteba in a fight for the same reason.
But as Hayami Katsumasa mentioned, he is an improved version of Meguro with far superior sense of judgement. All these qualities give me high hopes that Hayami can actually defeat the ‘Judo King.’

3. Chapter 102 Raw Scans, Leaks
The raw scans and spoilers for chapter 102 of Kengan Omega manga have been leaked, and the rough translation goes like this:
Chapter 102 continues with the eighth match of the tournament between Arashiyama Jurota and Hayami Masaki. Hayami’s moves are getting more and more dangerous and unethical as the match progresses.
Jurota somehow manages to break Hayami’s left hand, but it wasn’t of much use since he is immune to pain. In response, Hayami dislocates Jurota’s right shoulder, thereby trimming down Jurota’s chances of winning the round.
4. Where to Read Kengan Omega

5. Recap of Chapter 101
I. A Grappling and Throwing Contest
In chapter 101, Hayami starts showing his true colors and turns the fight into a ground grappling match. Jurota compliments him for his decision-making abilities.
Meanwhile, in Purgatory’s dressing room, Lolong reveals that Jurota’s greatest weakness is that he never uses punches or kicks. But at the same time, sticking to his specialty is his greatest strength too.
For the next few minutes, the two fighters continue to grapple and throw each other. Every time we think Hayami has turned the tables, Jurota somehow counters him with a new move.
Hayami barely escapes from Jurota’s hold and starts kicking him ruthlessly. Jurota gets him by his leg and trashes him to the ground once again.
Hayami gets back on his feet almost immediately. He smiles even after taking so many painful hits, and that’s when I started doubting if Hayami feels pain at all.
II. Meguro Masaki’s ‘Improved’ Clone
I didn’t have to wait long for confirmation as Hayami Katsumasa, the CEO of Toyo Powerplant, reveals that Hayami Masaki is a clone of Meguro Masaki made by genetic engineering with the help of Worm’s Technology.
He admits that Meguro Masaki was an exceptional fighter, but his recklessness and violent tendencies prevented him from reaching his full potential.
But Hayami Masaki is created through modern surgical procedures to overcome all the drawbacks Meguro Masaki had and become the ‘Ultimate Fighter.’
