I don't mean to brag, but: :catrude:

I personally think so for several reasons:

1. K9 is the Big Bad of the first saga of the story which covered several overarching arcs. If this were an anime, he would be the season 1's final boss. Having him fail now would be anticlimactic;
Check. :absojustice:

2. Isao has been noted to be in a much weaker condition after Kafka nearly killed him, so the big boss is now properly nerfed to make a defeat/assimilation by way of a surprise attack believable;
Check. :fullmom:

3. It is a pay-off of several plotlines:

- Isao himself wanted the new gen to surpass the old gen. What better way than this?
Check. :doffytroll:

- Narumi was certain that his skills alone would be enough to stop the next challenges without having to rely on new possibilities like human-kaiju hybrid ala Kafka. But, now, he has to face the combination of two numbered daikaijus and the force's strongest fighter. Can he walk the talk?
Super K9 just no sold Narumi's attack, so check. :madmonk:

- Kikoru's greatest failure in all her life is being way too young to even be there when her mother died. Now that she is the top recruit, can she save her remaining parent?
Kikoru noticed her dad is not fully assimilated yet and called out Super K9 on it, so check. :sadgrin:

- Up until now, Kafka never met a problem (kaijus) he could not solve with his punches. But having to kill off K9 who is assimilated with K2 + Isao might require patience and tenacity alongside his knowledge of the kaijus's interior to both remove Isao from K9 before he can send K9 packing. With his recent revelation that he can interact with his inner kaiju, can he prove that he has something to prove both as a kaiju and a human being?
Blocking Kafka's punch destroyed Super K9 hand, but this is the first time he ever blocked Kafka's punch in all their encounters, one-handed. So check, check, check! :yasu:
 
Well, time to expect a new power up from Kafka.
Yeah hope its happening. But if that happens, after this arc kafka maybe become 2nd strongest person or even the strongest in all division. And the story will be ended with him can fulfill his promise.
But i think its too soon right?
I kinda like this manga atm, hope it end later.

Me after reading this chapter:


The amount of self-hate from Kikoru after ch. 53 is gonna be painful to watch. Someone give that poor girl a hug. :catcry:

I thought this was gonna be it for Super K9, but yeah, no way the strongest monster in the series so far goes down a chapter after he is introduced. :phoenixmarco:

Pretty sure if Super K9 is meant to go down in this first saga, he will launch one final attack where his army is gonna be an army of insects with K2+K9 powers, maybe even plus clones with human assimilation powers. :pepestrike:

Also, no way this saga ends without Kafka first reconciling with his old squad to bring them together with his new one to finally take down Super K9 after the creepy dude being the literal bane of their existence since virtually the start of the series. And Kikoru still needs that "I know you're in there somewhere" moment to send her father off. :usosmug:

Gosh, will she ever catch a break? :pepemy:

Turns out we were only in the Infinity War. We're in the Endgame now. :catsweat:
