Dont know enough about the K100 or any other japanese plane to say it was "The best" but it certainly looks the part.
Great photos as always Pampa bou;

Here is a model of the K100 taken at the RAF Museum in Hendon, London



Some info from Wikipedia

The Kawasaki Ki-100 was a fighter aircraft used by the Imperial Japanese Army in World War II. The Japanese Army designation was "Type 5 Fighter". No new Allied code name was assigned to this type; it instead shared the designation "Tony" with its parent aircraft, the Kawasaki Ki-61(as, indeed, all Ki-100 airframes were built as Ki-61's before being modified to accept a radial engine in place of the inline engines originally used.)
