Tsuyoshi Kawabata is just a regular convenience store employee in a mid-sized city west of Tokyo. Except... he also happens to be the most powerful fighter in the world. Although he doesn't particularly want to fight, his reputation precedes him, and martial artists come from all over the world to test their might against the mythical Tsuyoshi – and invariably end up handily beaten, clutching their battered family jewels in a convenience store parking lot. Should you wish to fight him, he has three rules to minimize inconvenience: 1) You only get one fight. There will be no rematch. 2) You will fight in a secluded area, where you won't be seen. 3) You will tell nobody about it – even if you lose.

Read the full take

TSUYOSHI: Daremo Katenai, Aitsu ni wa is a comedic take on the super-powered fighter. Its lead is an ordinary convenience store employee in a mid-sized city who also happens to be the strongest fighter in the world. Martial artists from around the globe arrive to challenge him, and they invariably leave beaten and humbled. The premise is silly, and the series leans into the contrast between his quiet life and his reputation. The deadpan humour lands well, and the short chapters are easy to dip into. The honest cons: the joke can wear thin over time, and the action stays low-stakes for much of the run, which may disappoint readers who want real tension. The story also relies on repeated gags. Still, it is a light, amusing read for fans of martial arts parody. If you enjoy comedy with a straight face and a silly premise, this is worth a look.
