Line 22:
*** In light of the new chapters, {{spoiler|The leftmost person is the newly revealed [[Fragile Speedster|Rimi]], so we'll probably find out about the other two soon enough.}}
== Miu's mother was from the Kuremisago, i.e., the same ninja village as Kanou. ==
* She was shown to wear some rather unique [https://web.archive.org/web/20100403060855/http://www.onemanga.com/Historys_Strongest_Disciple_Kenichi/192/03/ battle attire] in a flashback, and Miu has [https://web.archive.org/web/20100403061219/http://www.onemanga.com/Historys_Strongest_Disciple_Kenichi/242/05/ heard of the name before.] Not much else to go on, but there you have it.
** Confirmed in chapter 430.
* Alternavively, she is in some way related to Shigure, though admittedly only suggested because she has the same eyes, and she's making the same pose Shigure does when she's attacked in the hot springs...
Line 121:
 
== Akira Hongo, YAMI's [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|God Fist]], will experience a [[Heel Face Turn]]. ==
Whether or not he becomes an ally or supporter of Ryozanpaku, Akira's already shown himself to be, at least, a [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]] where his former student Shou Kanou was concerned (in flashback at the end of the D of D Tournament saga, it's revealed that Shou didn't actually kill the little bird that the YAMI elders told him to, but rather crushed some grapes incognito to fool them into believing he had done so. When Akira found out, he simply shrugged and [[Pet the Dog|told Shou to do as he liked]].) And now, in the present arc, Akira's revealed himself to have been profoundly affected by his protege's death, indicating that perhaps he's not as big a [[Jerkass]] and certainly not a [[Complete Monster]] like some of the other YAMI masters (though not [[Affably Evil]] like Agaard).
 
== Suzuki Hajime, the martial artist who showed up in Hongo/Sakaki's flashback is the father of Kanou Shou == There are a lot of similarities between them. Both of them have the same eyes and same hair color. As seen in chapter 438, Suzuki is also good at imitating techniques, which Kanou was also good at. His death probably drove Hongo to join YAMI.
Line 135:
 
== Akira Hongo will kill Silcardo Jenazad ==
Ties in with some [[Fridge Brilliance]]: the two are opposites of each other in terms of temperament and title, even though they're both members of YAMI. Hongo's title within YAMI is "God Fist," whereas Jenazad's is "Demon Fist." Hongo [[A Father to His Men|cares about the well-being of his students]], [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold|even if he]] [[Not So Stoic|doesn't openly show it]]; Jenazad has demonstrated that [[Bad Boss|he'll kill his students (directly or indirectly) for sheer bloodlust's sake]]. Hongo [[Even Evil Has Standards|has a sense of morals]]; Jenazad is a [[Complete Monster]]. And at the moment, Hongo is seeking vengeance against Jenazad {{spoiler|via [[Enemy Mine]] with Ryozanpakou}} because the latter crossed the [[Moral Event Horizon]], taking advantage of Hongo in the process {{spoiler|by causing Hongo to ''almost'' kill Kenichi so he could kidnap and brainwash Miu}}.
* {{spoiler|Chapter 463 sets up the God Fist and Demon Fist to fight each other}}.
** {{spoiler|Chapter 475 confirms the WMG}}.
Line 150:
Therefore, in "real life," away from the cameras, Kenichi is in fact a [[Nice Character, Mean Actor]] while Tanimoto is a genuine [[Mean Character, Nice Actor]]; all the fight scenes for the Ryozanpaku and Yami masters are done using special effects and stuntmen; Nijima's appearance is in fact a costume; Saiga is in fact a jovial and rather comical kind of guy {{spoiler|even outside his John disguise}}; Sakaki is a strict teetotaler; Apachahi [[Obfuscating Stupidity|only plays the role of a man-child when on-set]]; Junazard is in truth {{spoiler|[[Older Than He Looks|a young man playing an old guy who happens to look young]]}}; Akisame does in fact like green peppers and even orders them regularly on pizza; etc.
* Adding to this WMG, here's a potential "behind the scenes" interview with the "actors" (this one based on a behind-the-scenes episode of ''[[The Simpsons]]''):
{{quote| '''Interviewer:''' Chikage, is there something you wanted to tell us about your role on the show? You indicated there was some kind of shocking revelation about your character...<br />
'''Chikage:''' [[Executive Meddling|They wanted me]] [[Big Breasts, Big Deal|to get artificial puberty early]]! They even tried to secretly feed me growth-hormone pills! ''(cue horrified gasps in background)''<br />
''(interview shifts to [[Not So Stoic|Akira Hongo]])''<br />
