Dub 2nd half coming out on the 30th. really exited to rewatch
>watching dubs
What's wrong with you? Also has there been a confirmed release date for the raitai tournament anime yet?
Also read the manga if you haven't.
I've watched both.
I watched the original series and I just finished the pickle arc in the manga. really loving the series so far
Tell me your feelings once you've read the ending to Baki vs Yujiro and Dou.
I really wish sikorsky got actual good fights and didn't just get destroyed every time he fought. by all means he should have at least been stronger than doyle
>be Garland
>hyped up as one of the strongest people in the world
>completley overpower Hanayama
>lose to Jack after a hard fight
>get used as a jobber for Sykorski and get completley BTFO
>Sykorski gets BTFO himself in every single fight he gets except Igari
>gets made Gaia's bitch the same Gaia who lost to kid fuckign Baki
That has to be the mosts hit on a character has ever gotten in the series, even Yanagi and Doyle got treated better.
In the end only Speck got a decent fight and he was probably the strongest of the bunch
>Doyle got BTFO by Retsu Katsumi and Oliva only betaign Kosho
>Sykorski got made Gaia's bitch
>Yanagi and Sykorski got dabbed on by baki simply because he got laid
>Doriasn has bene hyped up since the first series yet he was a complete fuckign failure gettign absolutely destroyed by Doppo without landing a serious hit while using cheap tricks.
Lost my Baki folder lads, post reaction images and kino pages.
Bump
Brotherly love
I was honestly surprised how chill jack was with the whole fight. For such a big brute i didnt expect him to have such good sportsmanshop about losing and everything
Jack is a weird guy
I remember a guy on the previous thread described him as sweetheart
Jack is a nice guy, he's just a retard
>gets told by Yujiro to not bite through clothing or he will lose his teeth
>does it the second time and loses his teeth against Memetobe
>You tell me
Is Dorian Santa Christ?
Despite being a brutal pit fighter Jack is a good guy.
He loves his mom, he and Baki gets along well despite the sibling rivalry, he's actually happy to have a little brother and remember that the only one who managed to stop Jack from going back at Pickle again was Baki telling him to sit the fuck down and accept his loss, he also wanted to fight Doyle in order to get a payback for Kosho so he could repay Kureha in some way.
Jack is a very cool character in his own right but Itagaki can't stop making him job and humiliating him for no good reason.
>Doppo with hair
Severely cursed image
Jack is top tier Baki characterisation and the fucking idea that originally Itagaki wanted jack to lose against Ali Jr which was one of his best moments confuses me
>Delet this
The scene where he "comes back from the dead" against pickle was hype. I fucking love that scene
not enough YUJIRO
Based jack making the whole arc do a 180. He single handedly turned ali into a jobber
Do we know when the new season is airing in Japan yet?
It truly was the best part of Ali's arc.
When did jack get his bone lengthening surgery? Was that after the maximum tournament?
>tfw put on a suit after washing
Yeah, Kureha took him under his wing after the tournament and performed the lengthening surgery in the time between the aftermath of the tournament and the arrival of the convicts.
How can I read this manga without feeling extremely gay?
Nothing bad in mirin'
it's not gay to enjoy reading a good sports or martial arts manga. in fact it's quite manly
No. The chapter that came out less than an hour ago says nothing more than 'production confirmed'.
embrace it
>Shhhh
>Don't wake the Memetobe
Nothing
I read all of the translated Grappler Baki, then Baki: Son of Ogre, then all of Baki Dou that was translated.
I'm still excited to see him beat Musashi in a million years when the translators pull their thumbs out of their asses.
Don't think I can go back to pre-final-showdown Baki and read the rest though.
I think most of that is covered in the Netflix anime which I haven't watched yet because manga is better in this case
Find me more redrawers.
Remember Junior?
The fuck was that shit?
This guy gets it
Sure I have a couple of problems but it's still fun and the characters are great (I like Musashi)
Still can't get over that reflex trap, like holy fuck
No Yujiro is Santa
Musashi is an interesting character because everybody else in Baki is autistic and fights just for the sake of fighting.
Musashi actually wants something, money and fame
You can't
>Had jack not gotten his body extensions he would have killed Tokugawa
>Jack almost killed the evilest fucker in the series
If this doesn't make your penis confused you're not a man
Anyone have a single link for all the baki dou chapters that the legend trandlates, and uploads here? Or is it just trawling through fireden archive of Yea Forums?
trawling is for jerks
No idea what you mean
Author going insane
>muh 5 second sumo
>muh superior jap martial arts
>muh real rikiishi
Honestly? Fuck Sumo, fuck Japan, fuck and Itagaki and FUCK Sukune.
Yokozuna lost to Igari and are wer supposed to believe an Yujiro level rikiishi was just fucking around in the wilderness without anyone knowing?
That's not what fucking jobbing mean.
How do i achieve this natty?
If you'd read the chapters, you'd know that he never leaves his home and kills everyone who comes near where he lives.
>Hanayama is unfuckable
>He cannot be fucked
Someone post the Tramp one, is Yujiro Itagaki's version of Israel?
Yujiro should still sense it or any other fighters for that matter. remember the start of New Grappler Baki?
Stroing people attract eachother. also Yujiro has the US in the palm of his hand you really think he couldn't find him through sattelites and shit?
I haven't read Baki 2018, I assume you're talking about the god of sumo, right?
I've always been kinda confused by the Baki reverence for Sumo
It's just fat guys bumping in to each other, it can barely be considered a martial art
not enough motobe
not ebough jack
Wait when did that happen?
Admiring the beauty of a strong male body is not gay at all. No gay themes in this manga at all,just pure dominance and manly behavior
>Have both
Beat up people until you see right through them
Get beaten up until you become softer than water
After pickle fucked him up the first time. He made an unconvious attack when tokogawa approached him see
I'm just after the pickle arc right now. How strong is jack compared to baki? Baki seemed surprised he was kicking pickles ass.
Is it like goku and vegeta sort of?
Sumop wrestlers still have incredible strength and skill just look up Hakuho or Chiyonofuji.
youtube.com
youtube.com
too much musashi tho
You don't know anything about sumo.
Sumo is way more complex and impressive than you are giving it credit for
>Pugilist Boxing is just dudes punching each other
That fight is one of the low points of the series, based on what we've seen jack should have killed him. If jack can bite through coconuts then he can bite through aluminium fibres or whatever it was that the jacked was made from
by not being gay
It's not, it's just fatties bumping into each other. It is no more skillful than americans having sex
>Motobe
Is it just me or was the mangaka planning to make Motobe a massive thread since the beginning in 1991, just put it off for fucking 23 years?
Like seriously, unless I'm hallucinating, in Grappler Baki, Motobe is really hyped up and made to appear dangerous because he has real world skills, but then gets his ass kicked early in the (unarmed) tournament and we don't hear about him again for 20 years until when he basically kicks the shit out of Musashi because he can finally use his tools
>Motobe will protect you!
>foreigner in Baki 2019
Probably beneath even Doppo at this point
:(
Yeah I don't, but I doubt even if I was an expert I'd think they'd have anything on say, a Jujitsu fighter in an actual fight.
The sport is literally "get the other guy out of the circle"
You take that back you sonofabitch
At this point it should end, it had grat moments. But even the author of Tough managed to let go. I wish the same for Baki.
he's also the one that finishes off yanagi
Travesty
Motobe was always pretty impressive but seemingly always side lined
Nah man Baki is still good
Considering Baki dou was such a surprise after son of ogre I'm still curious what gonna happen in 2018
He jobbed to someone who jobbed to a jobber
Kozue x Baki < Oliva x Maria
Why the FUCK did they kill Retsu?
ain't nothing gay about mirin another man's muscles
>When you find out Gaia is Motobe's apprentice
>Motobe could beat Gaia with one hand tied behind his back, but Gaia is hyped as Yujiro's only match
Lmao
There was no way that guy should've been able to tank punches that sent a 200kg caveman flying
Pure wank
Sumo is extremely entertainign and fun to watch and it has some pretty good throws. And even the initial tachi iai has an impact similar to a car hititng you.
The main problem with sumo is thsat itt refuses to modernize or change for the past 400 years though it started to change slowly in the Heisei era. Rikiishiw ould be some of the most impressive athletes alive if they changed their training methods and i am the guy you originally replied to and i cna't sya i like Sukune.
Did they though?
He just got his leg eaten.
Then started a pro-boxing career
>yeah, I don't know what I'm talking about, but I'm going to keep talking
....
.....
.......
Fuck
oh no.... you haven't baki dou
Do not click the black bars
>DO NOT
>fibres
That whole thing didn't even make sense. At the very least Motobe's shoulder should've been crushed
what was the reasoning behind motobe losing durring the maxium tournament? was he being retarded on purpose or does he get way stronger by baki dou? I haven't got that far yet
he is only strong using weapons and he got beaten by the power of SUMO
Motobe is a weapons fetishist and the maximum tournament forbid weapons
>Essentially he cheats
Motobe underestimated the yokozuna. That's about it.
wait do you anons really not have anywhere to read baki translated?
motobe only trains for "real combat" and thinks weaponless martial arts are gay
Why are the titles so hard to read. Someone can link me the correct order?
trash opinion
It's a big theme that some martial arts beat others
>Doppo vs Shibukawa
yes
no
baki's translation has always been in a weird place
i blame the wild fang project
to be fair akido seems like a pretty hard counter to karate
We make do with what we get
Baki will never be Vagabond or Berserk
I meant current baki, you want a link?
>father was in his prime during ww2
>was around 16-18 during vietnam
Wait how old is yujiro?
What did he mean by this?
Dumbass
Grappler Baki>New Grappler Baki>Hanma Baki>Baki dou>Baki dou 2018
>Comedy
>Baki was 17 in the late 80's
>Baki is 19 in 2019
Time passes IRL so Itagaki makes the setting more modern, time doesn't have any meaning in Baki.
I like how Yujiro's gigantic ghost dad is never posted or spoken of
I should have exited too...
at least we have kengan
>is Retsu sponging off the Shinshinkai dojo?
>He was raised from childhood in the shaoilin temple
>He ran into Doyle in a shopping center
>Wait why the fuck was Doyle shopping!?
Can Yujiro beat base Garou from OPM?
Between the two of them Jack came off better in the mom sweepstakes.
Not the first thing Itagaki left unanswered from Baki and Yujiro fight
>muh ancient egyptian Hanma
Compared to Baki, Jack is only slightly weaker. It's a Gokek and Vegeta situation in the sense that Jacky is absolutely top-tier, but he's never going to be on Bakis level because his blood isn't pure enough. i.e he's a whitey.
In Baki there is no magic, as like, lightning and flight. But Yujiro in ability reflect all the multiple bullets that Garou can.
It has nothing to do with Martial Arts anymore to be honest. It is more on Jojo level now. If you enjoy this go ahead. But i did read it for the MA aspect long ago
Garou has no magical abilities either and many OPM characters don't either Garou has Yuji beat in speed and Yujiro has more strength, technique i have no idea since both are geniuses but Yujiro refudses to use martial arts..
Either way i think Yujiro and the other top tiers are low S class level.
Before even Motobe, Retsu was the go to weapon guy
Baki-Dou had very little and was more of a character study fight manga but so far 2018 has been going pretty in depth into Sumo and I'm hoping that MA will make a more consistent come back
He's introduced during the final showdown for like three chapters then I think he's forgotten completely
His existence kinda pisses me off
Apparently Doppo broke hs jaw when he was a teenager (before Yujiro ambushed him)
Baki would be C class cause he never pays attention during class
So he in the same league as non legit BIKE driver
It's been very, very slowly going downhill after the end of the first series honestly
There's no real supernatural stuff in Baki, but it is implied that Yujiro is basically impossible to defeat because he be is so steadfast in his belief that nobody can hurt him that it becomes reality
His superpower is gigantic ego
obviously being set up for a future story
>Squatting so high it's on your upper neck where the skull connects to the spinal column
Jesus what are you doing?
Im confused about the meaning of baki vs Musashi. Why did it matter that baki was only playing at war? Did musashi actually take him serious or was he playing like he always does?
The way they introduced him is that he was weaker than Yujiro, and that Baki could defeat him because Baki countered his one and only move
Bakis training room was amazing a gold mine of specialised equipment
>baki benches 315
>I can only bench 185
I need to get my shit together, at least I can bench over my body weight
Well there is the power of imagination and Yujiro is that much stronger than everyone else in the series no superpower there. The stronger OPMN characters canblow up entire cities or mountains and the top tiers like Boros entire continents Yuji is nmot thta strong but him vs Garou Suiryu or Genos would make a good fight
>Incline sit up bench, not even an incline bench
>No squat rack
baki can also lift cars and punch holes in walls
I think it's a case of by the time Yujiro was old enough to beat his dad his Yuchiro was long gone (maybe when he was 10 or so?) After all his mother is a monk or something
Im pretty sure Baki cna bench press several dozen tons Pickle compared him to a triceraptops and he is comparable to Yujiro who defeated a 100 ton elephant.
Well that might be true, but they say in the manga that nuking yujiro wouldn't stop him
I guess I'm doing pretty decent for a normal person then
We don't knwo thsat and again even mid S class heroes can throw punches stronger than nukes.
I bet you can't even defeat a 1 ton elephant, you casual
Average untrained man can apparently bench press around 135 pounds just looked it up. I don't know i don't lift i mainly do body weight training or 40 lbs kettlebell training,
Nigga you really just compared yourself to a comic book character that inhabits a world where it's possible to punch through a boxing glove and run on water.
I would fuck this thing up desu
en.wikipedia.org
>What the fuck is Baki wearing
Also to stop an earthquake witha punch create massive craters in concrete punch at hypersonic speed and defeat the entire us army barehanded.
Is it possible to train enough to be able to kill bulls like the real life inspiration for Doppo?
youtube.com
But this was back when Baki was more realistic and grounded before it went completely off the deep end
I bet you'd feel too guilty to hurt it
>Ora
Baki was never grounded. Even before the "deep end" Doppo was destroying concrete sleeves, Shinobu was cord cutting and Gaia was straight up turning into trees and eating bear bones and drinking their piss. One of the first acts of the manga was Baki fighting 100 people and beating 56 of them. The ridiculous later on gets extreme, but the series was never, ever realistic.
WEhen's the new DDDDou chapter release?
Yes please
What fucking order do I read this series in?
Scroll up
Read the thread
Yujiro has weird taste in woman
>Diane Niel,Emi Akezawa, Hilary Clinton
Squats racks are memes.
You can do weighted squats without the rack
>he wouldnt be more fierce.
if i saw a lion doing a squat. I would shit myself
It's not really. I did full-contact karate (non of the American McDojo bullshit) as well as Aikido but stopped doing Aikido because it's not effective and thus wasn't useful to me. Sure, the techniques work, but only if the sparring partner isn't actively resisting you. This is the fundamental flaw in Aikido - because it emphasises not fighting there's no competition (even in the dojo) and thus no way to prove what works and what doesn't.
Yeah imagine a fucking Lion doing god damn burpees. Shit son, we as humanity is fucked.
Geese Howard would beat your bitch ass
Based jack
>Hasn't Hanayama just become a Buddha ?
Yakuza Buddha
>What went wrong after the third series lads?
This is something I spend more time thinking of than is probably healthy.
The main thing Doe lacks is stakes.
From the first panel, the only thing motivating the characters is their own boredom, because all the conflicts that actually matter have been resolved (if unsatisfactorily). There's nothing to really get invested in, other than pure spectacle.
Not to mention that Itegaki has taken his disrespectful jobbing to the next level. By focusing the entire arc on one fighter. Since Baki has to be the one to beat them, the only thing that the other characters can be allowed to contribute is as jobbers.
Did memetobe actions really produced any change or impact in musashi?
>Cannot find Baki the grappler remaining manga chapters anywhere
>Anime animation is a bit shit...
oh...
I miss the original Baki.
There should never be an overarching antagonist Even fucking Yujiro wasn't
The prisoner arc had the best dynamic and paid good tribute to martial arts and the characters
Nah but he is great and acts as more of a protag than Baki
Baki was enjoying himself he fights just for the pure bliss of fighting, Musashi was only looking for glory so fighting is a means of an end for him, wich somehow means that Baki was stronger and won?
>When the fucking Gorillas start learning how to deadlift
Musashi killing retsu was meant to raise the stakes... but then...
I wonder why Itakagi dropped the idea to explore the Hanma bloodline, actually thought he would tie it with the Tokugawa ressurecting Musashi somehow, and some "connections" were dropped earlier in the series as well.
This series makes me want to pick up a martial art. I already lift but I'm not really sure what I should learn.
Theres a place near me that does boxing, BJJ, and Maui thai
Mauy thai
ANy starting point is good, after a while you will learn from other martial arts and come tor ealize that everything is the fucking same even if there are different names for the moves.
After all, the body can only move in certain ways, and it's only efficient to attack at certain points. The rest is rpactice and the skill to predict what your opponent will do.
I've been rpacticing Martial arts for 20 years, done Kendo, Judo, Taekwondo, Krav maga, Boking, Bushu, etc...
I agree somewhat, most style's techniques are similar, but the overall methods differ. I went from Hung-Gar kung-fu to Kempo Karate with little down and the philosophy of the styles were quite different. Enough to throw me off for a while.
Like some martial arts push strong rooted stances, while others push for mobility. Thats a huge difference for learners.
Itagaki should introduce a proper cast of rivals or more focused single character arcs.
The reason why the Maximum Tournament, the convicts or the Raitai arcs were good was because all characters had their chance to shine and there were complex dynamics and situations, whereas things like the young Baki, the prison or the showdown with father vs son arcs were good was because Baki was the explicit attraction, even Retsu's boxer miniarc was good for that reason.
But now Itagaki wants to do more and more arcs in the same way as Pickle's, with one main antagonist that has to deal with a long line of jobbing before Baki steps in to claim his victory, symbolic or not.
It's less about stakes and more about better narrative structures, even if this arc would hype a possible Sukune vs Yuujiro great fight people wouldn't be more interested because the structure itself is still boring.
>Itagaki should introduce a proper cast of rivals
It's not exactly what you're talking about but I've always thought Jack should have his own gang of jobbers at this point like Baki does. He's somehow friends with Gaia (how the fuck did they even meet anyway? what the fuck Itagaki), add a couple more characters and you've got a 'rival' group of sorts I guess
Who's your favorite characters?
I really like jack and doppo
That only amtters when training, not whhen fighting, at least, in my experience.
the author started writing it as a somewhat grounded martial arts series. Then it started getting crazier and he consciously went into parody territory, embracing the madness, then he started taking it seriously, and that's when it turned bad
He must just be meming at this point
>But now Itagaki wants to do more and more arcs in the same way as Pickle's
Even Pickle's arc was more respectful to its non-Baki fighters, because we got to see how each fight changed pickle as a person.
But Musashi? I can pretty safely say that you could extract all of the jobbing from that arc, and nothing would have actually changed, in the end.
I don't even know what Sukune's whole deal is supposed to be, but that arc is still in progress, so I'll hold off on my judgements.
Jesus Baki.
>Sukune's whole deal is supposed to be
his style of sumo is the best and sumo stagnated.
Except that he's so physically strong that he can crush Oliva, so there's no way to say that his sumo is best when he can beat anyone who isn't a Baki by pure strenght alone
so your telling me that theres someone stronger than Oliva, whos the "strongest man" alive just hanging around in the wilderness?
What the hell is going in this thread
Why is almost everything posted here cursed images
?
that's what the manga has told us recently. Sukune just obliterated oliva
you mean blessed
Scarface update when?
This is the best thing to happen to the Baki universe since the third Baki manga
Sukune has managed to crush a gigantic hunk of coal into solid diamond with his fist, a feat that even Yujiro considers impossible.
The fact that the second half of the original manga isnt translated that i can find.
it is on Yea Forums archive, search for Baki you should find the threads there.
Found it! Thanks user!
every series baki gets smaller and shorter
>watch Baki subs.
>dig it
>see dub version on Netflix coming
>"cool, I'll give it a rewatch see who they got to dub"
>watch dub

>Christ...
i can redraw your shit
how much?
Where can I read grappler Baki (English)after 200? Right when the teeth snatcher and the truck wrestling were about to fight.
Stop being a greedy nigger user, do it for free like that anion does.
>baka the grappler
fuking hell lmao
damn it's like two bears crashing
Which are those?
nothing after this scene is canon
fucking this, it ended after son of ogre. baki dou is fanfiction i enjoy it but acknowledge it as crap
That would be hate-sex in the latter case.
Why did they make Baki all super serious in the Maximum Tournament portion of the anime? In the manga his demeanor is consistent and was pretty expressive but in the anime he hardly ever cracks a smile.
I would have preffered if he focused on the ancient Hanma bloodline instead of the sumo shit desu.
First anime was shit.
yeah, exploring the origins of the hanma bloodline would be interesting
too bad it's just another dropped plotline like Retsu fighting Usain Bolt
>watching baki anime
STOOOOOOOP ALL THE ANIME FOR BAKI IS TRASH ESPECIALLY THE GRAPPLER BAKI ONES. READ NIGGA AHHHHHHH
But where do you read after 200 chapter of grappler Baki?
sukune-kun
either read translations from the Yea Forums archive or just move on, boy. that's what i did. you don't need to finish it, it has nothing essential inside
>already lost to baki
where do you go from here?
His style of sumo doesn't even make sense. If grabbing the opponent's ribs is meant to be the analogue of grabbing the mawashi, then what's the sumo equivalent of what he did to Oliva? An atomic wedgie?
>how the fuck did they even meet anyway?
They have lives, you know
Wait... Yea Forums translated the rest of Baki?
Why isn't this available on Manga Rock?
Yujiro as a character.
Pickle for aesthetics
Because some guy constantly makes Baki threads with garbage images that he plucked from tumblr or which are screenshots he took of panels. As long as it's just him and that doesn't become the standard, eh, who cares.
listen to me you stupid fucking underage retard who reads his shit off fucking MANGAROCK, it's only TRANSLATED not TYPESET you fucking MONGOLOID god people like you are why people get mad at spoonfeeders. i'm not giving you a source where you can read the rest, you can fuck off
Because it was translated in the post by one user.
Jack seemingly is friends with Gaia and Kureha
Baki is friends with the rest of the cast basically (Hanayama etc.)
The all-consuming pride of a job well done
unless you mean how much material, in which case: 'a lot'
Autism
get the fuck off aggregators you jerk
Based and redpilled.
slaughtering everyone not named baki
not again please
fuck you underage nigger go read a manga more your speed like bleach or something
now post the more modern image
As mediocre as Dou was I really liked the Yujiro vs Musashi fight
Probably because it was the one fighter who Musashi didn't make job
Unless you've got an equally convenient alternative, no.
I don't really see why I would use very inconvenient non-aggregated sources, which I assume you want because it gives money to the pirate-.... translators.
But for real, do it to improve your language skills, do it so you've got something to put on your resume; don't expect people to pay you for something you stole anyways.
What happened to make Yujiro calm the fuck down?
are you fucking
just get off Yea Forums holy fuck
dou has lots of nice content, it's just overall it's stupid, even for baki standards. it was fucked from the concept alone
>oy vey goyim i've been caught
No more shekels for you Shlomo
i love this shit
If you pay for pirated anything you're retarded.
The people who put 99% of the work in, and who own the content you're ripping, aren't getting a cent
stop replying to him
autism
i love to see how mangakas improve throught a sole long work, it's kind of satisfying
>He stopped being a deadbeat dad to one son
It's ironic because he's butthurt that aggregators are pirating his already pirated translations
he killed his mom
why is this faggot seemingly okey with that
His mom was a bit of a cunt
Musashi surviving that hit is pure BS
Emi was a whore, fuck her.
He just hugged his beloved wife is all
he did not mean to kill her. he loved her, and just hugged her with all his strength, which sadly killed her. he was upset about it as well. did you not read son of ogre?
The whole point of the son of ogre run was exploring that Yujiro isn't as he is perceived
Time gave Baki perspective on things. He went from "I want my mommy to love me -> mom was a shit!" "Dad is shit! -> Dad's cool!"
>Yujiro isn't as he is perceived
how is he
What went wrong with the story was it essentially became "15-minutes-youtube-clickbait-with-only-2-minutes-of-actual-goods" the manga.
Nothing wrong with Itagaki though. He's got a franchise with multiple manga spin-offs, two anime adaptations, and merchandises - he's living the life.
Sociopath who enjoys only voilence who doesn't love anyone but himself
In grappler yes but in son of ogre he says he cares for baki and goes out of his way to indulge baki's fantasies a bit
if i remember right his dialogue was something like, "he's really crept his way into my heart"
Look of a man who believed he just lost both wife and son because they were to weak to love , next time he sees Baki is during his fight with Doppo
>wife
I don't see any ring on that finger of Yujiro or the reformed prostitute.
*mount toba right before the doppo fight
I think there was more to Yujiro even from Baki the grappler
Thing is, he was implied to have some depth well before the third series. For instance, this sequence seems a lot more pensive in retrospect.
looks like he doesnt care
Was basis mom fucking him? She pretty much made out with him early in the series
i really dont think about grappler too much. he acts strange. first off, here he's being smacked around by doppo and goes into DEMON BACK MUSCLE MODE just from fighting DOPPO. one of the weaker baki characters. he also gets hit by a tranquilizer rifle.
later yujiro jumps off a several story building, destroys a car by smashing baki into it, gets struck my lightning and is unharmed, etc. it's wierd.
The power of the retcon?
no just overly affectionate. she reminded him of yujiro, who she was insane for.
>disowns his son for losing
>gets his ass kicked and had the balls to say "chinese kung-fu won!"
tons of retconning in baki, no doubt about it.
the series as a whole is critically flawed in how it's developed, but the good shit is so good we put up with it.
that's not what retroactive continuity is
Go on
That's the sequence. It's unexplained; we see him somberly looking at the arena, and then he hears Kaku and perks up to immediately gets back to glaring and posturing.
To be fair to Yujiro as a person his relationship with his own parents seems worse than Bakis
isn't this and his dad's ghost the only glimpses we've got of his parents?
unless i'm recalling things incorrectly, her deal was she got scared that baby yujiro has enough power already to force his way to her teats right?
>thinks her own kid is a monster at birth
>Yujiro was a legendary merc at 16
>atleast met his father Yuchiro?
>?Timeline?
he's just disappointed
he waited 13 years to fight baki and he didn't feel any of his attacks
Can anybody point me to the part of Baki with the Yujiro vs Old Chinese guy fight?
Is it in the second series?
read the whole series or go away
New Grappler Baki chapters 225-238
Thanks
who's next for 2kune?
sukune teaches pickle how to sumo
>They are gonna massacre my boy
Its gonna be some shit like Karate is weak against my sumo or something
at least we may get to see doppo being a dork with his wife again
he'll turn doppo into a cripple
It use to be gayer.
Yujiro is gonna get him to fight Jack
Yuichiro is a nice guy though. Yujiro hated Baki probably because it reminded him of his own father.
Remember Yuichiro faked losing a fight for money instead of taking it by force, literally the opposite of Yujiro.
How do Baki characters pay for all their dental surgery?
Literally every fight they lose multiple teeth
Is Jack finally gonna get some dad love that Baki has got?
=( i don't wanna see jack get slaughtered again
tokugawa pays for it, I guess
he owns the stadium so he probably pays for every fighter's healthcare
>Tokugawa underground arena dental and bone insurance
Tokugawabucks, and the doctor
Who will be the next mainstay character to die after Retsu? I say it's time for either Motobe or Jack to bite the dust.
DON'T FUCKING JINX ANYTHING
doppo doesn't do anything anymore so he's probably going to die
Yuchiro may have been a good guy
But that doesn't mean he was a good dad
Yujiro has never loved Jack or his mother unlike Emi and Baki
there's a reason why yujiro used dress/guise on baki.
first hand experience.
Someone who in not familiar with Baki explain this image
that's an impossible request for someone who doesn't know the context
>spoonfeeders in 2000+19
And it keeps getting worse.
Surprisingly. no one has post this yet.
So what are baki's greatest techniques?
>cockroach style
>dinosaur style
>jumpkick
>how are the chocolates, son?
>Hey dad, this edibles doesn't make shi-wut
The one where he takes a few tabs of LSD and fights giant praying mantasis in his basement until there's bodily fluids all over the floor, walls, and even ceiling
Whilst a kid watches
i meant fighting techniques, that's a training technique is that by far the dumbest fight in all of baki? baki vs giant mantis image?
i approve, doppo doesn't do shit nowadays anyway
>Ultimate Chad Baki
Why?
Neck gains to the limit.
people who hate the prison arc are seriously the ultimate plebs
agreed shit was oh so kino
It isn't that it's 'bad'. It's just uninteresting. There are only two non-Baki serviceable characters in that arc; that's the problem. Imagine if Baki had been in the jungle looking for and then fighting Gaia for ten volumes.
I'm glad we can have a 300+ post baki thread. nice to see people still care about the series on Yea Forums
haha shit was it really ten volumes? oh well, baki and oliva are both great characters and their interactions were great (see the pissing on baki scene). as for the spic pirate president he was a complete joke and mistake honestly
they usually die pretty fast or are infested with netflixbabs. one lasting this long is a miracle, and you can see from the low ip count why. it's a niche fanbase
It's the best Martial arts manga series
But not as popular as it should be
it's too ridiculous to be considered a martial arts series but too grounded to be a battle shonen
and the art is hit or miss for people. it's the defenition of a niche series. only cultured anons appreciate and accept it for its strengths and weaknesses
i make this face alot, am i the future strongest?
I wish Baki returned to his hairstyle from mid-late Grappler
I like alot of the early Baki hairstyle's
Itagaki was more willing to be creative with clothing and design choices in the earlier days of the series. Like, what is Jack even wearing here?
>Sukune defeats everyone
>Suddenly blind Doyle
why are the shoulders so wide on the vest?
I've seen body builder pants like that before
Popeye should be the next antagonist after Sukune
The cheapest pattern itagaki could find on clearance at the arts and crafts store. That's what.
Blind and deaf*.
Sukune already has comically oversized forearms. While I would love to see Popeye in Baki, his gimmick is already kind of filled by Jack.
Fighters in Baki are just not human.
Even one of the jobbiest jobbers can survive spending a night inside a punching bag with his face full of glass, his throat slit, and who knows what else. Lets not forget the time that Baki's severed optic nerve was fixed with super glue. Far as I'm concerned, they grow back like shark teeth.
Jack outright is shown to have metal teeth.
Unless his mouth grows metal.
fuck i want the convicts arc redrawn baki dou style
I just want Yujiro to get confused as fuck as to why a small sailor man is kicking his ass with spinach. Or the fact that he's strong enough to tame something like Eugene
Bring back romantic subplots!
Closest we have now is nameless girl sukune probably split in two
What even fucking happened to Kozue? Did she just fuck off with Ali Jr?
Those are implant dentures
Stronger and about 5x more expensive
Nah still together with Baki
Walked to school with Baki and showed up in final fight calling Yujiro and Baki stupid
Can you name character that got a bigger NERF than Dorian?
He now has a child's mind and no will to fight though still durable
I'm gonna be frank; Ali Jr wasn't so bad, his arc is actually kind of interesting and the fact that everyone points out later on how he's a douche for being so self-centered.
Problem was the unnecessary Kozue shit
Why should I pity him? He nerfed himself by resorting to parlour tricks, when he already had the strength to tunnel through mountains.
Dorian breaks my heart and now papa Retsu is dead there is little to no chance of him making a comeback
The main problem with the romantic triangle was that Baki had no part of it
What ever happened to that girl?
It was pretty clear she was being set up to be Baki's girlfriend
I can't find the missing chapter in the archive, "Baki" only yields some Baki Dou results, am I searching in the wrong archive or something?
Equally, that was the point.
Moreover, it was probably intended to show a contrast between Baki and Yuujiro. Yuujiro would never allow a woman any freedoms because he understands them as tools or vessels. Baki, even after being screamed at to devour her, still felt that Kozue had right to agency and was a person.
I've tried reading both Kengan Ashura and Shuumatsu no Valkyrie, but everytime I see them I just think "Man, Baki is much better"
Say what you want about shitty plot, at least the characters and fights of Baki make it interesting. The fact that Itagaki goes through insane lenghts on some actual real life fighting stuff compared to Valkyrie where they just don't give a shit about mythology kinda shows it to me
i like kengan
it gave me some feels
True but at the time it felt that kozue chose Ali Jr
So specific, the missing Dou chapters don't appear either without "translations", thanks
Popeye vs Yujiro and Popeye Junior vs Baki
I've been there before it shouldn't be as hard to find as it is
good job. Fuck these literal brain dead idiots.
>Motobe bait
I use the paid version of Manga Rock btw
$20 was a small price to pay for free access to my favorite comics all in one place
>Fuck that
But if they released English physical copies of them I'd buy them instantly even if they were £10 a volume
>Yujiro is just depressed
>His chilling is him having friends more similar to him
>Santa Christ?
Jesus, a Nostalgic Critic reference in a Baki thread. That's horrible and funny at the same time.
Tanba rules. I wonder what happens at the end of the Garouden books.
But Itagaki wouldn't profit from an English release. Apparently, too few people are aware of how these things work. The publisher pays to Akita Shounen a set price for the license. Then, they publish a version of the manga in their language. The profits reaped from the translated official releases are exclusively paid to the publisher. By this, the publisher can then, if desired, purchase another license from Akita Shounen. This is what is meant when you are told things like 'you're supporting the author'. No matter how many millions of copies of every volume you bought, Itagaki would not see a cent after the original licensing agreement. You would just make, say, Vertical significantly richer.
Nothing in Baki will ever be more traumatizing than Baki running around with his dead mom on his back.
Dou is in a way a spin off of Baki. The son of the Ogre concluded the story of Baki and his dad. Baki Dou explores other ideas and while the main cast is there, Baki and his dad are not the main point. In Musashi Dou the story spins around Musashi and boredom, the latter being the only enemy Yuujiro wasn't able to defeat. In Sukune Dou the focus is on him and from what it seems, traditions and the foundation of something sacred. Imagine it as Jesus coming back because the church is doing exactly the opposite of his message even tho they are using him as the base for the church. That but with Sumo.
someone respost Pickle vs Katsumi mmv
song zombie in yt
THIS HAPPEN.
youtu.be
Isn't this just the second intro to Baki?
That ruined me for awhile
He has a friend though
He's seen drinking with that soldier guy regularly
>In an omake featuring him he demonstrates his 'dark tunnel' technique on a large military officer posing as him. While hiding under his couch, he enters the man's ass making his way up the body, and brutally coming out of the officer's mouth, killing him in the process. He states that this is only possible because of how small he is. The sight of this causes one of the female reporters to piss herself.
W-what?
I wish I could get my hands on the novels.
Humanoid abominations fighting each other.
More like peak performance vs peak performance.
Never, ever, EVER read the wiki. It's written and maintained by 12 year-olds and foreigners. That said, the synopsis is more-or-less accurate. It's the first few pages of Itagaki's "Songs of the Battlefield".
mega.nz
Be aware: these pages are ludicrously oversized, as I don't know how to effectively reduce file sizes. I think I originally scanned them as 600 DPI or something.
Yujiro actually has alot of friends
>Ando the giant ,Kanamoto, Strydum etc.
>Even Doppo is buddy buddy with Yujiro
I wonder how he'd get along with Shibukawa. I think they've never interacted on-page, but Shibukawa seems to hate him.
More fear him
But apparently Yujiro texted him to come witness Yanagis defeat
has it been ripped? I can't find the dubbed episodes anywhere.
Shibukawa invited Yanagi to meet him at that park. Shibukawa walked there. By the time he got to the park, Motobe had cut off Yanagi's hand and Yuujiro had broken Motobe's sword. Motobe and Yuujiro were intruding on something unrelated to them.
isnt retsu alive in the new dou manga?
>Fuckin Snatcher
Fucking Read it before coming on this thread what are you even thinking
Tanba and Baki
young man suffers massive hemorrhagic stroke due to head trauma
Why do I like Tanba so much?
Yujiro is Dragon level
He fought a yokozuna in a hand to hand standing match. Baki even mentioned that Sumo was possibly the strongest standing style and was a complete and utter counter to Motobe, who tried every possible trick after realising he fucked up trying to throw and finger lock a guy who expressly trains to combat those things.
Why the fuck is the english dub so funny
>Wrestling is fake and worthless
>Toba, Igari, Gallen, Roland
>Sumo is just fat guys
>Sukune and Motobe underestimating Sumobro
Funny bad?
or
Actually funny?
Oliva did it to himself. Sukune didn't even attack. He just held still and Oliva bust his own ribs while Sukune held him in his grip. The entire point of the fight wasn't even that Oliva was weaker than him in a physical sense but that Sukune's body was more suited to fighting because Oliva had a weight lifters build and not a bulk build and no amount of strength gave Oliva the advantage.
If OIiva knew how to fight outside brute force, he might have won the fight but he's always played the brute force card and he finally met the opponent where brute force didn't mean shit and it backfired, like back in the Raitai when the random ass Chinese fighter ended up crushing him until he followed Yujiro's advice and began trolling him.
Wasn't that more of he tried to do it the other guy's way (hand pocket)?
No. The entire point of the hand pocket was that Yujiro told Baki how to annoy someone and manipulate them into fucking up. Oliva quite literally listened in and used the advice hence why Yujiro looks annoyed when Oliva just starts doing it after having the Chinese guy stomp on him effortlessly the entire fight. It's why the fight changes in Oliva's favour right after since Yujiro's advice was 100% correct.
>Do you think we will ever see Sukune 'girlfriend' again?

Its got a vertical slides option in the settings, they have almost all the latest baki issues I think, Gaiden scarface and the doppo one.
stop
using
fucking
crawler sites
you
newfag fuck
no idea, but based
In the begging of the manga they are discussing that Baki's father has mental disease, Yujiro can't control himself, he's a demon and when Baki matures he understands it and discovers that his father is a good man
What the fuck is this gross ass shit.
>Loves Emi
>Kills her
What?
Yuichiro seems like a regular dude, he just killed americans because he was a soldier. Doesn't mean he was a good father, in any case, his son was born a monster.
>Yujiro doesn't show love like a normal person
>He gave his wife a hug
MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODS!!!!!!!!!
You didn't get it, Yujiro won't be alive in the next 100 years (his father is already dead), real power can't be passed down.
>I need an adult
she is dead
A fucking Baki thread has somehow almost made it to 500 replies
>Yo dad, do you smell toast?
Mortal Kombat tier logic
Jokers tanned brother meets up with clayface in disguise to discuss their plot of the week for killing batman.
Jokers brother fell into a vat of protein powder
>my mfw when explaining
Why is me mum in the funny pages m8
That wasn't the point, either. Kaku never once says that he won the fight. He says that martial arts triumphed over violence. He says that, by his death, Yuujiro's fist was stopped. That there is no form of self-defense which surpasses death.
I can't believe i missed an actually active Baki thread, fuck you guys you always do this when i'm busy.
;_;
Its so bad its good but sometimes it seems like its on purpose
Baki 11/10 even as a puddle
Your mom gets blacked by a body builder?
see you guys probably tomorrow
I doubt tommorows thread will get as big as this one has
I mean for the chapter.
