Poor schmuck

STRONG IS BEAUTIFUL

I wish he'd rather just save all this for the fight against baki and friends. It's not even just one guy. He's gonna continue this with the others

Doppo best baki

The fact he squished some guy's testicle in a non life or death fight was really off putting to me.

I can't believe pacquiao blanco is fucking dead.

all the sumo guys will win their first match, and the bakis will have to train together to beat them

>Shabaou
What's that

A promising manga which started about a month ago.

Attached: i-287.jpg (835x1200, 262K)

>the bakis will have to train together
I would actually like to see this. When have we ever seen more than 3 of them in a room together at one time to discuss technique?

king of gladiators right? i was hoping someone would attempt a tl since the last time i saw it mentioned

i still don't get how these guys are supposed to compete with the baki boys.

they're not, they're just elite fodder to puff up biggest boi even more.

I am also waiting for that.

I shilled for it and failed.

its baki. almost nobody dies even from mortal wounds

Unless you're Chinese

everybody was mad over retsu but I actually kind of liked his death, as much as the musashi arc sucked the whole part about musashi telling him
>"I'll show you what it truly means to get cut"
was pretty kino

I don't even get why Sukune and the cast left the arena. It's not like they would think they'd need to prepare.

Son of Ogre, when Katsumi, Retsu, and Kaku Kaioh where improving the Mach Punch.

>more than 3

someone tell me who the nigga on the left is? i don't think the anime ever actually introduces him, he just starts showing up.

I think he's just one of the guys that trains under motobe. motobe does have a big dojo afterall

Hanada.

Attached: Hanada.jpg (897x1393, 543K)

man this dude never amounted to shit

I think he got killed by spec too. his hand was the one spec ripped off and messed with baki with

Itagaki specifically made note of that in some interview. He wasn't clear on what it was, but he said that a major mistake had been made concerning Hanada's character or development and that the mistake had slipped past both himself and the editors; it was too late to salvage things by the time they had noticed whatever the problem was, so Itagaki was forced to launch into the thing with Toba beating up Hanada. Originally, Toba was intended to appear much later in the series as one of the stronger fighters.

That's not correct.

...what mistake? what could it have been?

Nah, thats kaneda your thnking of, hes the one that got killed by spec

I have no idea and I don't think he was forthcoming about it. Itagaki might have been upset that he had written that Hanada could do anything that Motobe could do, and wanted to rescind that but couldn't. That's my best guess.

Moustache

Why are the sumos fighting some literal whos? Weren't they gonna fight Baki's crew?

Well, is anyone translating it?

Synopsis.

No no but these are the REAL sumo, please ignore the other ones that lost consistently from the early chapters

and the ones in real life?

We've seen worse.
Remember how Oliva turned that one Kaioh into a human accordion?

when the fuck is yuujiro showing up?

I'm just really happy we're probably going to get to see katsumi win a fight this arc. its been so long since he got time to shine

>but I actually kind of liked his death
And I like your death.

When the world was still but one continent, the blue-eyed Jades and the black-eyed Obsidians fought to the death for supremacy. The Jades lost the great war and have been executed en masse (in fires), raped, enslaved, so forth. The men are forced to participate in survival-style combat games in arenas all across the earth. Many Jade men decided to commit suicide to preserve the honour of their race. But, there is still a small contingent of militant-minded Jades who believe that their hero, a one-man-army named Sekiran, survived his ostensible death at the end of the war and will return to genocide the Obsidians.

When the Obsidian emperor rose to power after the war, his first declaration ended with: "With this year as its genesis: once every two years from this wide earth shall splendid gladiators be gathered and they shall fight ten elimination tournaments across the world. Thus will the 'ten purgatories of Shaba' be carried out. And to the winner of all ten tournaments, the strongest gladiator, shall be granted the appellation 'King of Shaba' and bestowed unto him will be all under the heavens!" Meaning that the emperor would be giving up his throne.

In a frozen winterland's arena, we catch up with Sekiran - who has abandoned his identity as a Jade, and who insists that both the land of the Jades and the person known as "Sekiran" are irreversibly 'dead'. He's a gladiator slave now, like the other men, and seeks to become King of Shaba for reasons unknown. He says that he'll keep killing his comrades - in one sense or another - until it happens.

i don't know if it applies as a style, but Baruto, former ozeki, has a 3-1 record on Rizin.

>Remember how Oliva turned that one Kaioh into a human accordion?
That guy is definitely dead, though.
The ones that got the worse beatings and survived were Igari Kanji, Kato and Suedo. All in the death row prisoners arc.

Itagaki makes clear at the end of Musashi Dou that he doesn't consider former rikishi to be the same as active rikishi. He hasn't clarified why, but he wrote that there's a world of difference between, say, active Akebono and post-retirement MMA Akebono.

well for one, most MMA caps weight at 265. any formely huge rikishi would have to lose their bulk, and move with an unfamiliar weight and strength.

even for lighter rikishi that don't have that problem, the difference is more in conversion of style. they almost exclusively fight relative giants, but in mma, this dynamic is either null or reversed.

i'm all for an oldschool, no weight restriction competition, just to see. one thing Itagaki emphasized that is actually very true, rikishi can take heavy blows to the head better than anyone. they really do smash their skulls together quite often.

I like the art, but have a hard time following the action.

might help to know what it looks like in motion:
youtu.be/M991LO-yzus?t=217

now just amp up the torque and you get what happened to chaos-chan.

god sumo looks like such a meme of a martial art. at least it looks cool as fuck in baki

Not just the sumo, Chaos's backhand was hard to parse. I think I just need to be used to the style. I've only read a little bit of it.

Baki makes all martial arts look cooler than they are because these top athletes can heal from what would otherwise be career ending injuries.

i'm interested.

Hope you have fun, if this gets you into Baki.

Yep I can see Itagaki is following the failing baki dou formula that Musashi did.

I don't think you remember Musashi Dou that well.

I'm into it for sure. I watched through the show on neflix twice, and I started reading the manga from the beginning because it's long running and good Japanese practice.

Attached: Upper limit of fat-free mass in humans.png (713x574, 87K)

>good Japanese practice
Oh, it absolutely is not.

Really? I'm only a couple chapters in, and it seems like it's not so bad for my level. The worst part for me is reading on my laptop. I really like to hold the books.

seems like too small of a sample size to realy draw conclusions from, also the size of the bodybuilder matters a lot

not even close.

I just mean that Itagaki's prose is insane. He'll do things like drop or mess with the order of huge amounts of contextual particles or clauses for no apparent reason beyond its making sense in *his* head.
But, I don't believe that he started doing that until the second series, so I imagine that you should be fine for 42 volumes.

Well, you can look into it on your own, if you're interested. I don't know where to get/purchase the paper itself. These are just text images which I had immediately on-hand.

eh that was fairly light

Mushashi arc started off with 5 chapters of people moaning. Literally. IN the story.

yuujiro's gonna slap up at least one of the rikishi right?

Thanks. Poor Motobe Blanco, he actually seemed like a cool guy rather than the usual cocky dumb jobber.

That's nice, if you liked the new anime that much just wait until you get there in the manga, it's vastly better.

I can't into nip but having seen you comment on this through the years has always made me curious. The explanations you had written about the "match" thing in Doppo vs Shibukawa or the meaning of loss/defeat during the convicts arc were pretty cool.

I can into nip and his description of the grammar sounds terrifying to read, but interesting to listen to.

Thank you (x2) for the dump.

How would Motobe (armado) fare here?

He'll put Sukune in his place

I don't think that will happen, Sukune is proud but not far up his own ass. Once Baki showed him non sumo fighters matter he was genuinely impressed and curious about the crew, see his interaction with Shibukawa. He's a child who's now discovering the world.

=( i hope he doesn't treat my dear sukune-kun too bad

I want to protect Sukune's innocence

Isn't Sukune is stronger than this fags? And Baki played Sukune like fiddle

Kinryuuzan was a yokozuna and he was an irrelevant jobber during the maximum tournament. None of these guys should be able to do anything to the baki gang

Maybe my memory doesn't serve me right but didn't Sumo guy win against Motobe?

Yes but that was no weapons allowed Motobe, who is also an irrelevant jobber

Supposedly that was a case of terrible match-up. Unarmed Motobe uses jujiutsu.

Olive has no ribs now.

What was that about?

Don't worry he'll get Retsu's

kek

>Tfw just waiting for Yujiro
I miss him bros.
End of ogre was the best fight in the series.

Going by memory and keeping in mind that I don't know nip. Doppo broke down crying once he lost because Shibukawa refused to kill him despite both of them acknoweldging theirs was a match between "masters", hence killing the opponent was the appropriate and respectful conduct, you might remember the announcer stressing how they were about to witness an akido "master" fight for real despite a master not being expected to do that.
As for the convicts, there are a bunch of ways to say "fight/match" in nip each with their nuances and that whole saga was about exploring those nuances with the "any time, any place, everything allowed" stipulation they had made. It also tied in with exploring what a "loss" truly was, which came to saying you only truly won against someone if you can make them accept they lost to you, on their own. This is the reason Dorian brain gave in once Doppo explained the reason he never had the "defeat" he was longing for because he had unconsciously never allowed himself to lose, conceptually.

did this shit get translated in the manga yet?

>he had unconsciously never allowed himself to lose, conceptually.
This kinda reminds me of that one mentally ill guy who runs around picking fights with random people before eventually getting demolished by a real fighter at a boxing gym or something. Even when he barely crawls away with the other fighter untouched he can't stop bragging about how he totally won that fight. He isn't mentally capable of accepting defeat even when beaten into the floor.

Sueno fucking died, didn't he?

Jack best Hanma

Nah, they're all great.
There's no best.

The second half of the Maximum tournament is translated but not scanlated, the convict arc has been translated since forever but those nuances are lost in english and it certainly doesn't help WFP "translations" are 50% a guessing game looking at the pictures.

I'm thinking of the maximum tournament.
I can read jap, but I can't find raws anywhere.

You think? Granted, I watched the Netflix anime first and then read the manga, but I think the anime did a decent job adapting it, save for some QUALITY here and there. And the awful CGI

>Katsumi gets Retsus arm
>Oliva gets Retsus ribs
Who else gets a slice of the Kaio pie?
>Jack gets Retsus teeth

mega.nz/#F!q9Ry1KIb!U38K4MYG4647-6GBVIHl2w

I disagree, I watched it up to Hanayama vs Speck because I was looking forward to it but stopped after that.
The art and the way Itagaki conveys weight through it is 50% of the reasons I love Baki, the quality of the anime isn't even close to being adequate.

I agree with you there, Itagaki's way of conveying momentum is phenomenal and isn't particularly conveyed in the anime.
However, judging it from a Netflix anime adaptation viewpoint, it was pretty good. The music and voice acting was great and it didn't cut out much at all. And judging from lots of posts, it helped get lots of new people into the manga, which is a win in my book

Same want to the Yokozunas as Kengan or Garouden did for wrestlers, oh well.

This chapter and the previous ones seem like a waste in my view.

>Shibukawa and Doppo gets Retsus eyes

OH GOD YES

I think it was the door thing with Yujiro.

for a literal bunch of nobodies? Never.

And Sukune is strong but probably too inmature for him as well.

It woudl be great if Yujiro was learning the medium thing from Gokorou's sister in orer to fight agaisnt spirits, as he has conquered the mortal realm of strength, and he is only second to baki in terms of imagination, the path open to him to get stronger is to conquer the world of death.

>Ogre literally got so bored of all these weak ass living people he decided to go pick a fight with Yama and whatever else in the afterlife he can throttle

I could believe it.

One of the finest plot points is how Yujiro and Baki keep getting strong on autopilot, their bodies swelling without them really trying.
The last time we saw Yujiro, when Trump/Hillary swore the oath, he was swole to a ridicolous level. He could very well be on the verge of a breakdown next time he shows up.

>for a literal bunch of nobodies?
One time he just went into a gym and beat up random body builders.
Stop acting like Yuujiro has high standards. He just doesn't fight guys who just lost.

That happened in the first serie, don't pretend his character didn't change/develop.

>Sueno fucking died, didn't he?
No, he shows up when Katsumi fights Pickle. Was also watching some fights in the Musashi arc.

Is this neck achievable natty?

Of course. The venerable yokozuna would never use performance enhancing substances

Theoretically is food a performance enhancing substance.

Yeah he fought people who are trained to fight in more ways than Sumo does.
Sumo doesn't prep you for 10-20 1000+ PSI shin kicks a minute. Or fighting a guy who has spent as much time on a treadmill/doing roadwork as you do your entire training routine ALONGSIDE his strength training. Not to mention having strict diets designed to make you last longer.
Sumos are just not built for MMA. Their only advantage is you can't Judo throw em unless you're some natural 200+ pound 6'4 giant.
Just saying his record doesn't mean much.
Did he win those three matches then lose? Because most MMA groups start you off with cans even if you're someone with legitimate background like Bellatore does with Jack Swagger despite the guy having a shoot wrestling background.

or something alike to justify an interesting fight.

oh i know.he's not known to be a front line fighter though (doesn't lead the charge or has a high kill count) but it doesn't mean he's a pushover (you can argue about the hunting accident that leads to his death though). heck maybe like musashi, itagaki can write that genghis overhyped the mongols so it'll be easier for him to conquer places (annihilate one town/city to make the adjacent towns/cities more susceptible into surrendering).

It wasn't about their being masters; it was about the term 真剣勝負. From what I remember, the announcer kept calling the fight a 真剣勝負, and Doppo uses that term to justify saying that a match between martial artists is a fight to the death.

Nah, moses parting of the sea is the highest level of the empty hand technique that musashi already showed us. After all it's just the hability to split or slice, the main difference would be the scale.

Fantastic. Fun fact, Baki's VA is the new anime is also the VA for the protagonist of FGO.
The previous VA of Baki was Masami Kikuchi (Tenchi Masaki) and before that, he was voiced in the OVA by Yamaguchi Kappei (Ranma Saotome).

Boredom is the main concept and rival in Baki Dou. Everyone is suffering from this, including Baki and Musashi represents it. He is the new challenge nobody can conquer, the only enemy that defeated Yuujiro (Boredom, not Musashi, their fight ends in a tie).
Baki discovers the way to deal with both (Musashi and Boredom), which is by having fun.

Why would that fuck you over?

The Yujiro / Musashi fight didn't end in a tie, according to musashi's rules, when he was rolling in pain after Yujiro destroyed his balls he had already lost, the rest of the fight was an extra that we will never know how could have ended.

And the theme of boredom was quickly abandoned, the final message is that Baki is superior because he enjoys fighting more than anyone else, and implies that he's superior to Yujiro thanks to his imagination of being under attack always.

When will we actually get Samson?
You know Itagaki makes it possible.

What matches that we have never had would you like to see?

>Baki vs Gouki
>Baki vs Doppo
>Gouki vs Motobe
>Doppo vs Jack

>Ali JR vs Che Guevara

>The Yujiro / Musashi fight didn't end in a tie, according to musashi's rules
The fight is declarated a tie by Tokugawa, something neither Musashi or Yuujiro deny. While Musashi got kicked out in the balls, that wasn't the end of the fight, just like when Yuujiro is forced to let go the sword of Musashi.
>And the theme of boredom was quickly abandoned, the final message is that Baki is superior because he enjoys fighting more than anyone else, and implies that he's superior to Yujiro thanks to his imagination of being under attack always.
Is more complex than that.
The theme of boredom is around all the story, is what set in motion the appearance of Musashi in the first place and the next challenge all the other fighters had to deal with. The fight between Baki and Musashi is described as a continuation of Musashi vs Yuujiro (Yuujiro vs Boredom) and Baki manages to win thanks to him having fun. He has fun and someone that has fun is always going to surpass someone that takes it seriously.
In his fight against his father it wasn't based that his imagination was superior but that using his imagination, he forced his will upon his father. Remember, the fights in Baki are based on imposing your will. You can get your ass kicked and still win (See Katsumi vs Doyle) and win a fight and still be a loser (Dorian). Baki managed to impose his will by making his dad Yuujiro believe the soup had too much salt.

>Retsu vs

Because it's a cliched expression of the value of a sumo bout. You'll hear it frequently used in recordings from the 50s, 60s. In many high-ranking or important matches which last more than a few seconds, the announcer will start saying that about the bout. Now, imagine trying to explain the sentiment of that gimmicky, simple line in a translation.

Here's an example of it being said.
youtu.be/mqdqGMm12rE?t=54

They didn't deny the result of the fight, but being uncosncious / unable to act was deemed a loss by musashi because it SHOULD mean death for a warrior.

And you understood me wrongly, in the father and son fight Yujiro recognized that Baki had a will as strong as his own, but not that Baki was superior, by the end of Dou, Baki has managed to suprass Yujiro as in having conquered boredom, something Yujiro never did, his best try at that was concieving Baki and Jack.

Attached: Musashi_ded.jpg (725x1039, 279K)

I would hope so. It's important to show the weakness of the new enemy. If the rikishi can fight at Baki-character levels for 10 seconds and 10 seconds only before running out of steam, I'd like to see that.

Come to think of it, that's a lot like what Itagaki had Muhammad Ali Sr express: that he could still utilise his world champion strength for one full minute.

Attached: file024.jpg (896x1400, 469K)

I was hoping that this new Dou was a single 10s bout between Baki and Sukune that put to shame the Washizu Mahjong match, lasting for at least 40 volumes.

Only the 10s. For 40 volumes.

We still might have a chance to get this.

>They didn't deny the result of the fight
Yeah. Tokugawa is sort of the authority about that. He is also the one who mentions to Musashi, that Baki won against Yuujiro.
>unable to act was deemed a loss by musashi because it SHOULD mean death for a warrior.
This is actually a topic they bring a lot. Something similar happens when Baki and Musashi fight for the first time. With Baki KO Musashi with his jab the first time, but the second time Musashi knocks him out and the fight ends with Baki waking up after Musashi dropped him against the floor. Even if the circumstances were similar, the will of the fighter is what makes the difference. Something is brought again in their final fight, with killing or the possibility of not killing your unconscious opponent.
>Baki had a will as strong as his own, but not that Baki was superior, by the end of Dou,Baki has managed to suprass Yujiro as in having conquered boredom
I agree on this part. Yuujiro considers Baki his equal and that he can no longer call himself the strongest creature in the world, but Baki doesn't accepts this victory because his father is still stronger. And everyone that is watching the fight presence a miracle.

Tokugawa is Baki #1 fan, so I don't trust all that he says, I trust what I see on the whole during the events of the story.

This is why Retsu's death is important, your will stops mattering once you are cut.

Will only matters if the fight is freindly, not to the death or for survival.

Same but is not like he is incorrect.
Baki wins the fight but he doesn't accepts the victory.
>This is why Retsu's death is important, your will stops mattering once you are cut.
That's also true but your will is still important. Itagaki brings this question during the fight, If killing is necessary to win? and it counter that idea, when someone managed to K.O the other, he can decide if he kills or not his opponent.

Never actualy drove into the complexity of the question becuse in some light one could say that if your opponet can still coem get you, and there's always a chance he might do that if he's still alive, have you really won?

Will can be recovered even if destroyed, life not, in principle, unless Tokugawa messes with you.

>Will can be recovered even if destroyed, life not, in principle, unless Tokugawa messes with you.
Technically, it can. Dorian destroyed Kato but because what he wanted was to lose it never counted as victory.
You could murder your opponent and still be a loser following the rules of the Bakiverse if his will was stronger.
There's a reason the fight between Baki and Musashi goes back in forward in that idea. Musashi thinking if he should kill or not his opponent yet and Baki deciding to not kill.

>Former Fighter
What was your record before retiring?

Thanks for giving me an excuse to post this.

Do you really need an excuse, though

I wish he didn't.
How terrifying.

Hehehe, take a good look at this.

I have no idea why the Nips are so obsessed with 「なんだぁ？てめえ」. They use it for everything they can.

That scene between Doppo and Musashi became iconic.

Well, yeah, but why? It can't be that memetic.

I think is sort of a type of meme that can be applied to almost all types of conversations and end with the other character saying- What the hell did you just said, bastard?

I was looking for another pixiv image parody to post and found this in my folder instead. There's millions of 'em.

Man, I love it. There's a tag for it?

I'm almost willing to bet that there is one, but I haven't looked.

same. i'd like to see him fight someone regardless of how one-sided it turns out... shit is just more fun whenever he drops in.

Strong is beautiful!

Thx for the translation master!

I just love Baki memes or references to Baki. It always puts a smile in my face.

>his best try at that was concieving Baki and Jack
just baki, jack was conceived by mistake while murdering people

Extra-rare dark-skinned Baki which seemingly nobody knows anything about. This colouring was only used in the earliest promotion for the new series.

You're always welcome, but who else should you thank?

That's pretty cool. Speaking of promotional art, the one for the new anime was cool.

It's Cleaner-sama!

Correct. Good on you. Have a candy.

fortunately for him his 4th fight was against mirko fucking cro cop

Much better than the earlier promotional art for the anime.

Speaking of promotional art.
And yeah, I'm glad they decided to take a different route with the promotional art.

I wonder how they feel about this sumo thing currently going on

That's a pretty good question. At least for me, the Sumo arc is interesting, a martial art that is exclusively for the people inside their circle. Similar to Sukune that never cared about other stuff and was in his temple doing his daily cleanse of evil spirits.

Indeed.
The day of Wasshoi is near, my friend. And we shall drag any boxer, judoka, karateka, wrestler, grappler or striker that may touch the streets!

Thank you user!

Is Hinomaru going to job?

Not to Motobe Blanco but he will to Katsumi's Mach Punch Retsu Edition

not just yet.

I want to see a sand drawing contest between Itagaki and Oda

What a retarded list.

It's Enhou.

>Yujiro interrupts the tournament just to say how stupid the list is and then leaves saying none of them are worth his time

damn i wanna see an anime adaption of musashi dou that isn't presumably shit

I'd rather not have any animes for the shit we've gottien desu.

yeah seriously Baki isn't the same without the whole nietzschean shtick

European knights, Zawisza the Black, John of Aragon, William Marshall and so on. Reminder that each of these dudes would dunk on Musashi historically speaking.

Itagaki probably won't admit it, but it's pankration that's the literal mother of all martial arts in the world.

That's not even close to the truth.
