Dudebros #3: The Door Within [Koga, Ranma]

Well, fuckin’ hell… he nudged his brother back, but what he heard about the Kenpachi was wild. Almost… suicidally wild. The dude didn’t sound real for a second. Sure, Ranma got behind the courage thing, ‘never backing down from a fight’ and whatnot, but there were levels of badassery that he didn’t dare challenge – mostly ‘cuz, in contrast to this Kenpachi-guy, Ranma very much feared for his life.

“You’d think he’d… y’know… wait, did he ever meet his match or something?” Ranma decided to ask next. Kenpachi sounded like he must’ve won every fight he ever went into, but if he was a whole-ass Captain, he must’ve had an untold number of battles to the death. If he was so fearless as legend would say, how… how come the dude survived? Ranma hadn’t heard jack shit about him dying, so- wait, was he even out there?! Where the hell was he?! He could’ve been plenty helpful with the invasion!

“I mean, we’re not really Kenpachis ourselves, but at the same time, you can’t fight tomorrow if you die today. Also, where the fuck even is he?! He could’ve helped with the invasion… *gnash* or somethin'. He didn't die, did he?”
