assuming that (ASUMI...ing that) the original line in Japanese was "死ね" i am begrudgingly forced to admit that this is probably one of the best possible translations for it

I have to confess something, when I saw Martial Master Asumi on the MANGA Plus app, I ignored it because I thought the art they used for its thumbnail (which is shown above) looked lame. A few weeks later, I found out that the author is Kawada Sensei, who made the successful Jump series Hinomaru Sumo (ran from 2014-2019, collected into 28 volumes and had its own anime adaptation), and I decided to check it out.
I’m reading a lot of new series on the MANGA Plus app (Demon Lord Exchange!!, Ice-Head Gill, Wild Strawberry, Mikane and The Sea Woman, and Null Shojo) and Martial Master Asumi would have to be my favourite one of the new series. The manga’s story (to put it simply and bluntly) is about high schooler Nito Asumi getting into MMA. To keep it simple, I’ll just say my two favourite things about the series: 1) I really love the art (though, for some reason the coloured art used for the series’ thumbnail did not look good to me) and 2) the biggest reason I love this series is the fight choreography which looks so good, uses real-life MMA fighting technique and is very clear in how it flows from one move to the next making it very easy to keep track of.

If you haven’t read it already and you either liked what you see, are a fan of fighting manga, a fan of sports manga and/or a fan of Hinomaru Sumo, please read Martial Master Asumi. It’s really good and deserves a chance.
Also of note, the series’ original title in Japanese is Asumi Kakeru (アスミカケル) but is localised in English as Martial Master Asumi; the reason it was given the name Martial Master Asumi was to give it the same acronym as MMA (Mixed Martial Arts), which the series is about.

Don’t worry Nito you’ll get with Nao one day. You’ll just be the girlfriend with her.

We ended up giving Hinomaru Sumo a shot too. Was it the best sports anime I've seen? Nah, nowhere close and that's a big list actually. I know it's nerd sacrilege but I like sports and sports anime, if nothing else this one is unique. As you could guess it's about Sumo and the plot is standard but I like it. Revolves around the main guy being a legit standout school competitor but he has to reach a certain level he can bypass height requirements to start climbing professional ranks as an adult. Manager who's a genius but has asthma so has to be an alternate. Legit multi-talented athlete who fell in love, lil guy, and the big nice guy who gets to standout more here in this ensemble because he looks like a sumo wrestler.
It's alright. I like how we have a lot of different body types we don't normally get to see in anime. Though the theme song involving the repeated chorus of "Be the naked be the NAKED" is weird as hell. Doesn't look like it'll get another season and I doubt I'd take the time, but it was worth finishing this one.

About martial master asumi, does it have a fake out like claymore, where we’re introduced to the guy first, but it’s really all about the women, or is it mostly about the guy, just with some cool ladies in the supporting cast?
i'd say it's mostly about the guy lol (the titular Asumi) but there's a decent number of female characters now and Nao is a pretty important player in the story
Martial Master Asumi having female fighters on the cast is really interesting to me because the mangaka's previous work, Hinomaru Sumo, focuses on a sport that's so "old-fashioned" that a man was famously allowed to risk death because the alternate would have been breaking an ancient (and sexist) tradition, but other than a few passing references this part of sumo culture was never really addressed, and although i love several of the female characters in the manga (Reina da best 2018) of course none of them could compete in a sumo match (except for the best fight of the series, Reina's confession to Hinomaru)
MY POINT BEING that now Martial Master Asumi not only has female fighters in the cast but has made several references to female MMA becoming a bigger thing (partially thanks to Chihiro's daughter) in this universe, so i have pretty high hopes that this series will address things like sexism
ON THE OTHER HAND it's Jump lol, so. temper your expectations accordingly

My favorite animes list
My favorite animes that i’’ve finished/plan to that don’t include the big ones (Bleach, Naruto, Dragonball, One Piece, etc which haven’t ever really appealed to me)
1. Yugioh Original and all series including Zexal, Vrains, and Sevens.
The true classic anime and I absolutely love all the protaganists, Also everything will be solved by awesome card duels. 
2. Gurren Lagann
My first non yugioh anime that wasn’t a Ghibli movie. Absolutely incredible. Kamina is one of the most inspirational people and so is Simon
3. Saint Seiya, Saint Seiya Omega, Saint Seiya the Lost Canvass, Saint Seiya Knights of the Zodiac,
Warrior Astrological saints fighting the gods? Yes please.  Also I love all the spin offs and Omega and the new Kotz are wonderful and unfairly hated on. 
4. Jojo’s Bizarre Adventures
Its in the title. Each different Jojo is wonderful and unique and they’re all amazing and this stuff is just wild. 
5. Tiger and Bunny
I think the first modern superhero anime that lead to My Hero Academy and Such. I absolutely love Kotetsu and Barnaby’s becoming partners and also the being a hero versus hero celebrity and advertisement capitalism. 
6. My Hero Academy
I love superheroes and powered people and them wanting to be a hero. Kirishima and Izuku are absolutely incredible and Kirishima is just one of the greatest inspirational characters ever. 
7. Fire Force
Fire powers, cults, religion, the threat of people spontaneously going infernal and bursting into flames, heroism, it is just one of the best things I’ve ever seen. 
The only thing that really keeps it from being a great on the level of masterpiece (which it is in literally everything else) is the sheer female “fanservice” cringe. A lot of anime tend to do have at least some to appeal to the more perverted folk but Fire force has some of the worst I’ve ever seen which is saying something, Not on the levels of Bastard!! (I’m amazed that was something that was ever printed in a general audience let alone recently animated) or Enemy Combatants will be dispatched but definitely up there which is honestly really disappointing since Fire Force is not that type of story. 
On the other hand the male fanservice is glorious. 
8. Sk8 to Infinity
Skateboarding and Love. Reiki and Langa are Love as are Joe and Cherry. Adam is also one of the coolest most theatrical messed up people.
9. Love After World Domination
Super sentai parody. Just think power rangers except less focused on the battles because Red Gelato and Reaper Princess are on opposing teams and just doing a secret relationship. It is completely ridiculous, awesome, and so adorable I’m just screaming. I wish there was more and even could do complete anime original material I wish for because even the set up is something you can make multiple entire seasons worth . 
10. Tomodachi Game
Yuuichi is something else. It’s all a friend game which is more important friends or money and the twists keep coming. He’s one of the scariest protaginist “hero’s” i’ve ever seen that were actually the (more or less) good guy mains. 
11. Kaguya-Sama: Love is War
Also one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. Both adorable and I want to also friendly choke the life out of them too to get them to admit because they’re all so adorably stupid smart people and just Shirogane and Shinomiya circling around totally in love and trying to make the other admit it. Also the narrator is just  glorious funny as heck and the openings are incredible lol.
12. Disastrous Life of Saiki K
Saiki is God. Utterly amazing one of the funniest greatest animes haha breaks the fourth walls, sheer comedic brilliance, incredible characters, Saiki’s logical going under things, and being complete tsundere in the actual way of how much he loves his friends lol. 
13. One Punch Man
It’s One Punch Man. Utterly hilarious and funny and just awesome characters and how one can still have an awesome story when Saitama can one punch everything except for like the final boss which doesn’t last two and be victorious. His power is so phenomenal he has to be nerfed by his complete oblivious apathy for well obvious reasons. People need to stop ranking power levels that involve Saitama though: there is no scale he either always wins in his universe or would probably get his butt kicked in other universe if he doesn’t have his one punch. It just doesn’t work. 
14. Kuroko no Basketball
The sports anime. Basketball with essentially superpowers in awesome ways but still played realistically. Everyone is incredible!
15. Hinomaru Sumo
I never thought I would be interested in Sumo until this. I’m not into sports in real life anyways but these animes are incredible. And Hinomaru Sumo is just supremely underrated also one of the best things I’ve ever seen. Tradition, Honor, Spirit, as well as differing body types and incredible characters. Gojo Yuma’s genuine repentance arc is also one of the best things i’ve ever seen and probably only just below Zuko the Avatar’s being on a smaller scale but he actually repents and atones and actually apologizes and works on himself which is rare. Lots of life lessons and characters, in addition to wrestling and it was just wow!
16. Kengan Ashura
Martial Arts, incredible bodies, and awesome characters!
17. Baki 
Same though Kengan Ashura is more realistic power based.
18. How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom
A political anime that was a good brevity of realpolitik while also being really enjoyable where its politics but wouldn’t get too stuck on it either. Of course some things would be a lot harder to get done realistically. It turns the normal hero from another world trope on its head and instead brought a leader who isn’t a fighter but a thinker and capable ruler. This is the ideal ruler and wow if only all politicians and leaders could work with such honor and integrity but he’s also not blind to those who don’t and outmanuevers them. It’s just so good!
19. Sword Art Online
Love it or hate it, deeply influential and fantastic. I love Kirito, Klein, Asuna and everyone. 
20. HunterXHunter
One of the greatest series of all time. When you think about it the world is utterly horrifying truly but it’s cool ad wacky and utterly amazing characters. 
21. Vinland Saga
OH my gosh my newest anime and one of the best things i’ve ever seen. Truly a masterpiece in every way, even before Part 2 comes out. It just has freaking everything: deep philosophy, religion, battles, politics, love, vikings, etc. Askeladd is one of the smartest, most ruthless, but most weirdly relatable villains ever, Thorfinn is how you do an angry feral blonde seeking revenge for the death of his father but also then starts to see Askeladd as his father figure etc, the sheer character developement that will go on in Prince Canute etc. 
22. Jujitsu Kaisen
Magic and Martial arts, and demon spirits. Yuji is adorable and I love everyone!
