----------------------------------------
And it's over. It was a nice final episode. While it wasn't as exciting as the last few episodes. They closed it well. I guess I better check out the manga next.

I've just watched episode 50. This was awesome.
There is one thing I can say: this was one of the best anime series I've ever seen if not the best. I really enjoyed it and I think I will rewatch it once again and maybe once again. Just masterpiece..

I second that! Now, I don't know that much japanese, so I don't know whether it was the fansub team or the anime itself....but the inclusion of "their power levels....are over 9000!" was nice :D Brings back all those old memories of DBZ, the "gateway drug" as some call it

It's definitely an awesome series. And it was one amazing ride.

The ending was alright, not what I was hoping for, but I guess its okay. To be honest, I really didn't like it that much. But that's the thing about shounen anime. They never give you a complete, satisfying, no hint on further evil, ending. Already they hinted at a continuation of Kenichi with this "darkness" being released or whatever. Haha, should be interesting to see what occurs granted it is continued.

Final rating 9/10.

Over 9000 was freakin' hilarious. Based on my meager understanding of Japanese, i don't think they actually said 'over 9000', but it was still funny.

Great final episode, and great series as a whole. Can't wait for the manga translators to catch up. :D

9/10 from me.

Kenichi is over already? Man it feels like only yesterday since I started watching it. I'm still glad I did though. It was a perfect mix of Comedy and action.
My only complaint about the ending was that they should have used more time displaying what happened next instead of showing a montage. But still its been a great ride. And I might check out the manga now.
a 9/10 here

Yeah I'm pretty sure the "Over 9000" thing is a joke by the Doremi peeps. I remember they did that for an early episode with Sakai in it. So silly.

I'm depressed now, one of my favorite series just ended. I can only hope there will be a second season.

Slight spoiler for what's to come (regarding "Darkness"):



That's what I got at least, rich can probably give you guys a better understanding of the full plot.

Awesome series... and awesome ending. That would be cool if there were a second season where the Saint of Fists (forget his real name) makes a dojo and challenges Ryozanpaku or something...

I second that. Awesome ending, with lil flashbacks, and me too wanted to see SoF's real power vs the Ryozanpaku Masters. Wonder if there's a season 2 or OVA at least xD

The fight with Odin (episodes 48-50) comprised volume 16 of the manga. There are currently 26 volumes in print, and enough additional chapters have been printed in Shonen Sunday to make up another 3 or so volumes.

Pretty awesome ending!
As soon as I saw the lines "Their power levels..." I was like, "Oh no they're not..." "Are over 9000!" "You're kidding me..." /facepalm...

Haha but other than that a pretty good ending! I'm really hoping for a second season!
9.5/10!

Ahh damn, when the masters came out of nowhere to stop Kensei I thought I was gonna get to see even a just a small piece of action between them... Hehe, but just wishful thinking...

Overall, was a truly enjoyable episode altho the last ep was a wee bit disappointing.. Still, great ep... Well, if there was a second season that'd be very nice lol...

But I think they should have been some confessions between Kenichi and Miu since Kenichi was trying hard at Martial Arts to also get closer to Miu and he saw her as a goal to get.

Decent episode, not as good as previous couple but tied the series up nicely, much better then other ones with manga continuations...

Was a good blend of comedy and action. The first 25 or so episodes weren't too good (not bad either, still 8.5ish/10 for me), but they were needed for the excellent second half of the series.

Overall 10/10 and 5th on my favourite list... Off to read the manga (already read chapters that were left out of anime)

I loved this episode... apa apa appaaaa! I swear, the look on Sasaki's face was priceless! Oh yes, I thought I'd post this for the good of all manga wanting Kenichi fans... The manga continues from chapter 144, so if you want to continue from the manga story, go to chapter 144.

It was a nice ending, I didn't like the fight with Odin though, seemed like it was the least memorable of all of Kenichi's fights. I give the series an 8/10.

Having just finished Kenichi, I enjoyed it especially the last few episodes. My first impression was that I wouldn't like it and take a huge interest but I really enjoyed it. Hoping for a new series.

It was a nice ending, seeing at how the manga is still ongoing, overall it was a good series sometimes, although some action sequences were a bit cut up, the animation was not top notch all the time, maybe mediocre sometimes! Albeit the story was good, overall the anime gets a nice 8/10 from me!

A good ending to a good anime. I enjoyed nearly all the episodes, especially those between 40-50.

On the other hand my only disappointment is there is nothing happened between Miu and Kenichi in the last episode.

The long-waited hug (or maybe kiss?) has yet to come. Anyways its a 8/10 from me.

This anime is so great in many ways. The ending of the anime suggest that this is really the end for Kenichi the anime series, I mean the way it's ends is satisfying: the bad guys beaten+finally Kenichi two childhood friends revealed=a dead end happy ending.
But let's hope there will be a 2nd season and I am hoping too.

I was expecting something like that..also they seemed to kill off Kisara as she had no role in the last few eps..i wanted to see some reunion between them all and with miu and kenichi..not a bad ep i guess, quite dissappointing though..8/10 overrall for me, could have been better if it wasnt for that ep!
