Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru ("Young Karate Prince Kohinata Minoru") is a seinen sports manga written and illustrated by Yasushi Baba. The manga ran in Weekly Young Magazine from 2000 to 2012, ending at 500 chapters that were compiled into 50 volumes.It tells the story of Kohinata Minoru, a freshman at Reinan University, a school renowned for its numerous and formidable sports teams, who is the official Persona Non Grata of the gymnastics club. Holding him responsible for their lost spot in the latest competition selection, his seniors have kicked him out of the club, and continue to bully him over his friendship with Misaki Nana, the club belle.Enter Mutou Ryuuji, a karate club member who happens upon the latest altercation and beats up not only the offending club members, but Minoru as well for failing to stand up for Nana and himself. Having lost his spot in the gymnastics club, Minoru accedes to Mutou’s demands, and the club captain Minami Hiroki’s more gracious requests, and joins the school’s Second Karate Club, a small club practicing the brutal full contact style of Kaburagi Ryu. With his gymnastic abilities, Minoru discovers not only talent, but a growing passion for karate. And It’s a good thing too, since he has to take on not only the club’s grueling training, but also its numerous feuds and rivalries, in his journey to work his way to the top of the sport.A sequel manga called Karate Shoukoushi Monogatari ran in the same magazine from 2012 to 2014. | |

Instant Expert: Downplayed with Minoru and Ibuki's older brother. They're both very talented fighters who are capable of taking on and even winning against karatekas with years of experience despite having only practiced for a few months themselves. | |

| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_166e33f3 | comment |
Little Miss Badass: Akamine Rika. She's "little" in the sense that she's a senior high school student when first introduced, whereas most of the protagonists are at uni. The "badass" part comes from her being able to take on a US soldier much bigger than her. | |

Genre Shift | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_177a6464 | comment |
Genre Shift: In the series' long run, the setting changes a bit, Karate becomes less prominent as fighting leagues and tournaments take over as the focus of the manga. This is because Minoru develops into a well rounded karateka and black belt quite fast, so the plot introduces the MMA aspect to pit him and his friends against other fighters of different upbringings. Also the comedy gets sligthly dialed down. | |

The Worf Effect | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_178ca149 | comment |
The Worf Effect: Andre Makinba, the guy who gave Minami such a hard time at Shiryu Kai's tournament, is easily beaten by Skandalaki to show how much of a threat he could be to Minoru. Other fighters get this occasionally to emphasize how dangerous some newly introduced fighter is, but Takasago, the 2nd place fighter of the K.O.S. Japan GP tournament, exists almost entirely to be worfed against other fighters. His most successful showing is providing credible heavyweight for Minoru for practice early in Minoru's pro training. The rest of the time, he usually serves to demonstrate the prowess of some other, usually lighter fighter by getting his ass kicked. | |

Title Drop: The first time the phrase "Karate Shoukoushi" is ever mentioned in the series is in chapter 251, when the media people are trying to come up with a catchphrase for Minoru. It means "The Little Prince of Karate". | |

Graceful Loser | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_191a3673 | comment |
Graceful Loser: One key difference between Minoru and Ryuu, highlighted in the year following their loses to Hamada. Save for certain incidents, like the fight with Chris, the former doesn't tend to hold a grudge when he loses and instead resolves to improve himself so that he can grasp victory in the future. The latter on the other hand is consumed by revenge and focuses on getting physically stronger at the expense of everything else. Director Izumi notes that this mindset contributed greatly to why Ryuu lost to Minoru when the two face off again. Andre has spent a year stoking his anger for when he faces Minami in the ring, chomping at the bit to utterly destroy him after his somewhat humiliating fight with Bertrand. Bertrand, on the other hand, isn't too bothered by it but all his saying so to Andre falls on deaf ears. | |

Martial Arts and Crafts: Two examples: Iskandar LLC is a motion picture creative group that specializing in producing martial arts porn films. Done realistically with Minoru and his past as a gymnast: when he joins the Second Karate Club his body is already exceptionally conditioned in a well-balanced way, as needed of a gymnast, and it also gave him great agility and a formidable grip on the mat, allowing him to pull effectively acrobatic moves that would otherwise be utterly ineffective and making him almost impossible to ruin his balance even when he's on the toe of a single foot. | |

However this Awesome, but Impractical as the fighter is still high and fighting only through instinct alone while this does increase the accuracy of power of their attacks it eliminates their ability to perform more complex maneuvers. Furthermore a strong enough jolt can break the victim out of their trance and they will have no memory of what has been happening since they ate the mushroom. | |

Brilliant, but Lazy | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_355007c3 | comment |
Brilliant, but Lazy: Gianni Skandalaki. For his fight with Minoru he doesn't really bother to train (to the point he utterly fails the weight control and has to fight with heavier gloves as a handicap) because he doesn't expect much, and when Minoru proves himself a capable opponent he wants to quit the match until his wife threatens to throw him out if he loses. He's also the holder of the welterweight and super welterweight world championships, and once he's properly motivated Minoru is immediately reduced to a Curb Stomp Cushion. | |

Thug Dojo | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_38a1911b | comment |
Thug Dojo: The Shiryu Kai MMA karate group. Their training style has earned them an unsavory reputation, which the head of their organization fully embraces. In addition to drawing out his students' raw aggression, he encourages his dojo's representatives to fight dirty in competition if they can get away with it, and won't hesitate to protest tournament rules the moment they start to inconvenience his fighters, even if he devised those rules himself. | |

You Are Better Than You T Hink You Are: This turns out to be Minami's main issue aside from hemmorhoids. He's been around people who stand out for so long that he feels inferior by comparison, choosing to remain in the shadows and nearly chose to throw the fight against Minoru so he won't hinder the latter's dream until he gets a stern talking-to by his senior. | |

Kasumi Saizou, as the last and proud descendant of a long line of ninja, is by far the dirtiest fighter in the series. As in, he'll coat his hair into a tear-inducing substance to prevent grappling and breath fire in the middle of a match. He's disqualified and likely banned for life from combat sports during his first (and last) pro match. | |

Big Brother Bully: Mamiya Seiji's older brother, Mamiya Kiichi, who arranges to have him beaten up in order to force him to return to the Kendo Club, and later puts him in hospital. After he is beaten by Minoru, he agrees to let Seiji stay in the Second Karate Club, and ultimately grows out of this trope. | |

No Guy Wants an Amazon: Akamine Rika is afraid of this, thanks to an offhand remark Mutou made years ago. Considering that his girlfriend is possibly the most formidable female martial artist on a campus full of martial artists, he probably didn't mean it seriously. It's hinted that Nozomi thinks of herself like this too to a lesser extent, though it's likely more to do with her firebrand personality. | |

Honor Before Reason | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_44fc28e8 | comment |
Honor Before Reason: Due to his strength and Satoru's cerebral arteriovenous malformation (congenital brain disorder) - which led to his death -, Samart fears his own strength. Because of this, Samart goes to extreme lengths to make sure that he does not endanger his opponent’s life (he holds back to win by decision every time/tries to minimize the damage to the opponents head). He can also be said to have found a new respect for life after the incident. Because of the incident, he also does not care if he has to forfeit a match to protect his opponent as demonstrated in chapter 294, during the Raptors World Championship, when he just left the ring while his adversary stood there with confusion and humiliation. | |

Use Your Head: Kaburagi-Ryu Karatekas actually train in using it defensively: if you can't avoid or block a hit to the face, then take it on the forehead. When Skandalaki tries an elbow strike against Minoru this defense breaks his arm, and when Takenaka is challenged by a delinquent the latter's attempt at headbutting him results instead in the delinquent being headbutted on the nose. | |

Combat Pragmatist | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_49fb5ccb | comment |
Combat Pragmatist: Kaburagi Ryu practitioners are expected to be this, with such things as punching the weakest parts of a face (extremely rare with bare-knuckle sports) to cause pain and bleeding, teaching to use headbutts, and, in sports events, going after the opponent's weaknesses both physical, psychological, and of skills. Their founder, Juzou Kaburagi, used to be quite infamous for his skills at finding said weaknesses. Minami is well known for this, being known as the "Emperor of Dirty Matches". Having Kaburagi Juzou as a coach during the GENESIS tournament only increases this trait. Kasumi Saizou, as the last and proud descendant of a long line of ninja, is by far the dirtiest fighter in the series. As in, he'll coat his hair into a tear-inducing substance to prevent grappling and breath fire in the middle of a match. He's disqualified and likely banned for life from combat sports during his first (and last) pro match. | |

No Loves Intersect: In the long run, every single main character gets a Love Interest, the girls◊ are introduced in the very first ten Volumes (some are main characters themselves), none have competition and they were quite obvious even before becoming Official Couple, they only needed some development then and there after in between the fights and tournaments. To point it out, it goes like this: Minoru/Misaki, Ryuuji/Haruka, Hayama/Rika, Hiroki/Nozomi, Seiji/Akiko. All of them are solid and have zero competition to even start a possible Love Triangle or break-up. | |

Red Oni, Blue Oni: Mutou and Minami. The former overwhelms with extreme power, while the latter is more technical. They often perform like Good Cop/Bad Cop. Later on, Mutou is straight-up overwhelming offense (being compared to wielding a katana), while Minami is the absolute defender (represented with a castle with layers of moats and...well, defenders). Their conceptual portrayal eventually intersect later on, however, with Minami being seen like an Iaijutsu practitioner and using similar tactics as Mutou, i.e. charging into the enemy, though his is actually a dodge into enemy territory instead of straight up tanking blows. | |

Psycho Serum: Dokuno Konoko Dake Mushrooms cause you to have diarrhea for three days and three nights. Then fever will break out and you’ll be hallucinating for a few more days. However while in this state the fighter gains Super-Reflexes as since they are in a hallucinatory trance their body reacts instinctively to the blows coming and because of that they don’t try to fight against the force. However this Awesome, but Impractical as the fighter is still high and fighting only through instinct alone while this does increase the accuracy of power of their attacks it eliminates their ability to perform more complex maneuvers. Furthermore a strong enough jolt can break the victim out of their trance and they will have no memory of what has been happening since they ate the mushroom. | |

Never My Fault | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_973d220f | comment |
Never My Fault: The attitude of the gymnastics club members who bully Minoru, blaming him for them being unable to attend the selection meeting, even though as Nana points out, it's because of their bad behaviour that the uni took away their rights to the selection. | |

Crippling Overspecialization | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_9aaf8eca | comment |
Crippling Overspecialization: Minoru is rather weak at throwing punches, something his opponents can take advantage of, until he evolves into a more well-rounded fighter later on. | |

Knight Templar Big Brother: Hiroshi Takakura, aka Kasumi Saizou. So far he's attempted to kill a guy he thought was two-timing his sister Akiko, and when he learns that their grandfather has arranged a marriage for her, he ultimately ends up punching the groom so hard in the testicles, that it's implied that the guy ended up sterile as a result. Also, Saizou's unhappy that he wasn't able to actually kill the guy. | |

Saved for the Sequel | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_a353507 | comment |
Saved for the Sequel: Some plot threads strongly teased in the first series were kept without proper resolution, possibly saved for the still ongoing sequel as they are still teased: Minoru and Misaki pretty much know they love each other, however they didn’t really become official, Misaki leaves Japan to train for the Olympics sad that Minoru didn’t come out clean about his feelings; Minoru runs to the airport promising they will reach the next stage once she comes back and he will become a great fighter by then. Misaki comes back in the sequel, pushing the now super star Minoru to keep his promise. Ibuki’s obsession to fight Samart and avenge his older brother Satoru does not happen, what happens instead is people telling to let it go out of his grudge, Ibuki’s former sister-in-law-to-be finding happiness again and marrying another man is used to drive the point home; Ibuki keeps his desire to fight Samart in a more professional level. The sequel dives more deeply on Samart’s character and background, teasing he will be a future main fight. | |

One-Hit Kill | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_a414c3f0 | comment |
One-Hit Kill: Kaoru does this the first time we see him fight. Takenaka's very first fight in a ring pits him against Imai Yuuto, the semifinalist from the Kaburagi Ryu nationals. He's so spaced out from fighting in front of an audience for the first time that he doesn't respond to Yuuto's first kick. Total match time, twelve seconds, including the knockout countdown. | |

| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_a5c78451 | comment |
Graceful in Their Element: Daichi Satomi weaponries this as he is an extremely clumsy teen who doesn’t show even a thread of talent. However that clumsiness makes it impossible for fighters to read his rhythm. So even though it takes him far longer to learn a single technique than anyone else. The more of a first class fighter his opponent is. The more his clumsy rhythm ruins their own rhythm. | |

Karma Houdini: Pedro Barbossa is a sex criminal who's raped countless men and shows no sign of repentance, and his only comeuppance is to end up in the Second Karate Club as the member who none of the others particularly like or care about. Minami didn't know about his history when he let him into the club and allowed him to room with Minoru and Hayama, but he didn't do anything when he found out, and Minoru and Hayama are justifiably terrified of having to live with him. | |

Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_a9de87d2 | comment |
Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Hiroki, the bumbling Captain. He spends dozens of volumes in the shadows and suffering diarrhea and hemmorhoids, then Genre Shift and Art Evolution kicks in, and boy does he change, or rather, he starts to show exactly why he is the Club's Captain. By the 40th Volume he is considered as much a menace in the ring as Mutou. No wonder he got Nozomi as his Love Interest. The first hints of this is actually when he fought and pretty much defeated Kasumi Saizou, and a conversation between him and Mutou soon after that revealed that they have fought three times in middle school, and won...well, at least once by default, but still, given how Mutou overwhelms everyone else, the fact that he wasn't knocked out or injured should give a clue. Combat abilities aside, he's also actually a pretty good leader and Father to His Men, as Minoru realized when Minami wasn't around to help him train. It's later revealed that his perceived mediocrity was at least partly by choice. He's such a nice guy that he never used his kohais as sparring partners, suppressing his own fighting style whenever he helps them train against a powerful opponent, and, as such, they have no idea what he can actually do when he gets really serious. | |

All for Nothing: Played for Laughs in the final chapter of the original manga. The ongoing subplot concerning the karate club being without a building is finally resolved when through a bizarre tournament, the Kaburagi Karate club wins their dojo back. The last panel then has Akiko saying the land the dojo is on has been sold for condos, while adding Reinan University itself is in serious financial straits due to Japan’s low birth rates. She’s advised to not tell the guys just yet. | |

Determinator: Mutou fought Satomi despite having broken ribs from his fight with Bertrand and would have beaten him if not for a technicality that draws out the match to an extra round. He only stopped once his wounds become too serious and he passed out in the ring vomiting blood. Much later, this is stated to actually be Minami's greatest weapon, as his resolve is leaps and bounds above everyone else. Tabuse Jun had to loose 15kg to fight in the tournament and he also never took leave from pro wrestling. During the fight he was throwing up, had cold sweats, and bouts of delirium. The moment he regained consiousness he went to Osaka for another gig. | |

Berserk Button: Mutou is none too fond of pacifists, or weaklings. It's the main reason he drags Minoru into the world of karate. Harming one of Minoru's friends will generally incur his wrath. Ibuki does not take kindly to people messing with the kids he teaches. Or being reminded of his deceased older brother. Hitting on Minoru is one for Pedro. Humiliate Gerard Bertrand, and Andre Makinba, his disciple, will do whatever it takes to get the chance to kick your ass. | |

All Amazons Want Hercules: Haruka seems to play this the straightest, as she's considered the strongest female on campus and paired with Mutou, widely regarded as the most dangerous male on campus...and other places. Her ex-boyfriend is no less of a badass. Nozomi, who can be considered to be as strong as Haruka (kicks about as much ass with her naginata) being paired with Minami is a hint that he's actually not as weak as he usually appears to be. | |

Hope Spot: The first few moments of Minoru's fight with Hamada. At first it looks as though he's on even ground with the Koudan Champion, dodging all his attacks, and throwing some very powerful, and unusually accurate kicks at him. But then Hamada gets serious, and the rest of the fight is not nice at all for Minoru. | |

Bertrand's student, Andre Makinba, is no wimp either, having won two European titles. Gerald Lopman is a nine time world champion who's previously beaten Bertrand, and needs an Olympic weightlifter and shotputter for a mitt holder - his punches are that powerful. | |

Fan Disservice | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_c660bc15 | comment |
Fan Disservice: Minoru's fight scene with Kevin. Minoru, a Bishōnen, being shirtless would normally be a pretty good thing. Except he's getting the crap beat out of him by an equally shirtless, insane and rather Gonkish Kevin. | |

Big Bad Wannabe | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_c67af1b0 | comment |
Big Bad Wannabe: Yuuya Morisawa, the MMA club captain, a villainous individual who makes a big deal of the advantages his versatile fighting style gives over purebred karateka. However, when he fights Ibuki, he goes down like a punk despite using a weapon, and Ibuki's student is quick to point out that while Ibuki practices his art at an elite level, Morisawa's skills are distinctly half-assed. | |

Love Letter Lunacy | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_ca855eaf | comment |
Love Letter Lunacy: When Kasumi Saizou thinks Minami is two-timing (or three or four timing) his sister Akiko, he writes a false letter to lure him out. Minami has never met his sister, and was talking about a different Akiko, while the member of the karate club that Akiko really likes is Minoru, who Saizou tried to make his accomplice. | |

Nightmare Face: Kevin Norton. He's a bit weird looking to begin with, but hopped up on PCP in the underground fighting ring, he looks positively inhuman. Carlos Jiraiya also has one after being knocked down by Saizou. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: Imai Yuuto would often use Confusion Fu such as turning his back on opponent all to make them accumulate anger and impatience allowing him to catch them off guard when he really attacks. However once Minoru figured this out he just attacked Yuuto when he turned his back on him again. Imai Ryuuto instantly called foul only for the ref to ignore him. | |

Training from Hell: The Okinawan training camp is explicitly described as this. This is also what you are most likely to get if you ask Mutou for training. Hamada's training is also considered this by the Kaburagi fighters the first time they tasted it. | |

Action Girl: Kou Haruka, Mutou's maybe-girlfriend and the captain of the taekwondo team, and Akamine Rika, the daughter of one of their school's old karate team captains. Akiko Takakura is a less typical example, but is still highly formidable with a naginata. There's also Nozomi, the captain of the naginata club, who's good enough with her naginata that she can easily handle Minoru after he becomes a pro fighter, and Minami chose to train with her when he had to face Andre. | |

Lightning Bruiser | |
| Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru (Manga) / int_db6230b7 | comment |
Lightning Bruiser: Kaoru, full stop. He's so fast he's able to use the Shadow Clone technique, which works as consecutive feints leaving afterimages, followed by a sudden strike from an unexpected location. In chapter 373, Kaoru recognizes Minoru as a genius, who's able to reverse-engineer this technique after seeing it only once, and use it against his sempai, Minami, in actual combat. | |

Art Evolution: After 30 Volumes or so, Yasushi Baba begins to evolve his way of drawing muscles. It becomes more defined, shaded and solid; it coincides with the MMA Genre Shift as the characters now are mostly shirtless, and no less important, he begins to draw the women more curvy as well. Characters in particular got a beauty upgrade, Hayama and Seiji are glaring examples, their designs are completely renewed; it might be for matching looks with their beautiful girls, as they got Rika and Akiko as their Love Interests. | |

Expy: Mutou, particularly early on, comes across as one of Takamura Mamuro in fighting skill relative to the other members of the club, seniority, and jerkassery. Even the circumstances under which they meet the protagonist are similar. Both Kaburagi Ryu and Koudan Kaikan are closely based on Kyokushinkai and its derivative Seidokaikan, though with the expies having aspects of both real life styles. | |
