Netflix: Anime "Baki" is out, and it's batshit insane (Second half coming 30th April)
- Thread starter Kenzodielocke
- Start date
Man this shit is hilarious. Baki is really this underground thing that's just pure dumb fucking fun.
Oh, so the dub will likely be out by then. I'm surprised that Netflix didn't just wait until March given their MO. If only they did simulcasts &/or SimulDubs.
That's nothing. One of the new characters introduced later in the story is
a caveman that lived alongside the dinosaurs and could take on T Rexs by himself.
My god I hope they continue animating this. I prefer the look of the older show though and musical score.
Best part is he isn't even the most outlandish character introduced to the series.
I do like the atmosphere and the music especially of the older seasons. That said the art style in the current season is skewing much closer to that of the manga.
I take it the manga artist enjoys drawing highly muscular beefcakes with highly accurate muscular detail.
I mean that's part of the reason Netflix doing release model like this.
Ok so my biggest complaint regarding watching the third season of Baki first is that the characters barely felt like characters, but the first season is actually helping with this a lot. I'm not sure who is crazier Yujiro or his wife also Hanayama actually seems a lot nicer than what I felt from the third season.
Yujiro: "Time to eat"
*proceeds to curbstomp Baki*
Yujiro being this strong compared to Baki pretty much makes the people Baki defeated look like children's toys compared to Yujiro.

Yujiro even makes Baki look like a chump in most of their fights
And he did it just to give Baki something to really fight for
Everything for Yujiro is a means to make someone fight harder. He even seemed to enjoy
his wife fighting him with everything she had, but not good enough to spare killing her
I'm actually hoping the author gets bored or frustrated with the story as it is and just has aliens invade and challenge the strongest fighters on the planet for a gigantic galactic tournament for the fate of the entire planet. The last Predator movie that came out had a small cross over event where they made some artwork for Baki Vs Predator.
Would have really loved if something similar to this happened in the actual story.

Yujiro vs some fucking Aliens would be great, it would be like the ending of One Punch Man season one.I'm actually hoping the author gets bored or frustrated with the story as it is and just has aliens invade and challenge the strongest fighters on the planet for a gigantic galactic tournament for the fate of the entire planet.

The series just started a new part and they've introduced another new character whose supposed to be insanely strong but I'm kind of hoping some mad scientist creates an unstoppable fighting cyborg or something.
From what I've heard about Jack Hanma's backstory that doesn't even sound outside the realms of possibility.
Haha I could totally see it
Polar bears, apes, cobras, tigers
So much creatures killed to display strength
This motherfucker Yujiro bout to ambush his kid after his respectful fight with Toba-San. Yujiro is like this creepy mix of Akuma and Hisoka. Dude locks himself in a gym full of boxers for shits and giggles.

The OP to Baki season two has like no budget behind it and they used the same 3D engine from Virtua Fighter 2 I swear.
They actually getting pretty close to that at some point..
Which means you can type some random bullshit and its probably happened in Baki.
They should just do aliens and have a planet v planet tournament.
No one told me DB super stole ultra instinct from baki
Has the author ever discussed his plans to end the series? Like, does he even have a conclusion in mind?
Hahahahaha..
To be honest, looking to the current state of the manga.. I think the author have no interest whatsoever moving the status quo to anywhere, he want to have this job forever.
Baki comes extremely close to this. Hell, what ends up occuring is faaaar more absurd in fact! Baki is so damn enjoyable lol.
A robot does not have muscles and is therefore unable to match up to any fighter
Oh don't worry it will be some nanomachine muscles or something that can finally rival Yujiro Hanma.
They could do a Muscle vs Tech motif. Have Yujiro fight a Terminator. I could really see it . . .
Agreed. No need to think too hard about it. Enjoy the show!
Well this show is certainly... something.
Hey, anyone have a good high-quality image of the Dojo poster of the dude Karate chopping the tiger across the back of the neck? I love the tiger's expression.

I decided to watch the first season. Baki's dad just stopped an earthquake by punching the ground really hard.
Alrighty then.
Alrighty then.
Oh I'm sorry, did you ever take on the marines barehanded? No? Well alright then.
Please keep watching until season 2, it's a tournament arc that's up there with YuYu Hakusho's
This robot would still be a better dad than Yujiro fucking Hanma.
Yujiro did not want Mother Nature to get in the way of further fucking up his sons life as a means to give him real motivation to train harder.
Haha! A quote from Baki:
"My martial arts training began at 3 when Yojiro tossed me head first into the concrete."
Uh, I'm pretty sure that's child abuse, not training.

Yujiro kills Baki's mom to give him some proper motivation.
And he kills her slowly as well. Broke both her wrists and crushed her spine and then just tosses her corpse onto her unconscious son.
I think you mean that Sagat from Street Fighter looks a lot like Doppo Orochi.
