Nah, I'd say the exact opposite. Kichi held back rather well during the festival (I mean, relatively speaking). He's the most dangerous kind of brute; the kind who's been professionally trained and disciplined (what an amazing feeling it is to have watched him grown up to this point since the day he was born).

Sternbild Kingdom only sent the Rock Hero anyway, so I think it's fine. Some of the commentators in the impressions page theorized whether or not it was supposed to be a chance for Rou to get a new weapon (and I just realized that's how Rou's probably going to get most of his new skills; from eating all the weapons he'll win off of the heroes), but the author simply said that it was because the Rock Hero was stronger than the Water Hero (the Tree Hero is the strongest out of the 4 heroes, but she specializes in defense, so she gets a free pass to stay at home). So I guess sending him would be the most diplomatic thing to do, especially if they were only gonna send one hero.

It would be interesting to see how the Rock Hero matches up against Kichi now, especially since he was apparently physically stronger than Kichi was during the civil war arc.
