Actually, the best base for Sumo is being a small muscular wrestler, not a fat guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxRcMQ_kH1g Zzulu fucked around with this message at 19:38 on Dec 3, 2018 |

This claims that Oliva is only as strong as the current (real) worlds strongest man if he can only lift half a ton in deadlifts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6eC_klO21I Seems like he's scaling back power levels a bit

I fluctuate on whether or not I like Yujiro or not but considering certain events in the new series he circles back around to becoming hilarious. I only regret that he's unlikely to ever get his rear end properly beat though because he's been put up on this ridiculous pedestal to the point where he can't ever lose. He's this force of nature that has to be the ceiling everyone's reaching for. He needs to get his stupid, amazingly weird face punched in though because he's such an rear end in a top hat.

Or when he does unnecessarily over the top stuff like walking through plexiglass for shits and giggles. That stuff is fun Yujuro is bad when he's casually owning everyone while the author masturbates about it

Yujiro has some great moments in the Netflix series. His introduction is so over the top and I love it. Also him showing up like a creep and judging his son's sexual performance.

Yujiro just constantly dunking on Baki for the most insignificant reasons is reason enough to keep Yujiro around.

That stuff is fun My favorite dumb “this man is badass” moment with Yujiro was when he cracked the bottom off a bottle of whiskey, poured it into a stein glass, skulled it, the smoked a whole cigar in one pull. Mostly because it just made him look like Kramer, smoking and drinking at the same time.

Ashing his cigarette by spitting it out and then doing a front flip and obliterating it with his heel is my favorite bit of Yujiro nonsense.

Yujiro's the embarrassing dad that you don't want hanging around your friends because he's always trying to show off how cool he is, except he does it by beating them up

Although in true Baki fashion yujiro would accidentally kill them on purpose and then lecture Baki about having stronger friends.

Non-fighters, with the single exception of Tokugawa, might as well not exist in the Bakiverse. They cannot affect punchmans in any significant way, nor do they have any rights punchmans are bound to respect.

I like how many of the punchmen are all something resembling friends despite how many of them have grievously injured one another. Actually just in general how they react to losing appendages/most of their faces.

I'm surprised it took Yujiro a bear hug to kill his wife. At this stage he could just pat a normal person slightly too hard and they would explode in a shower of gore.

Yujiro took Doppos loving eye but now they're hanging out in bars together

I think people who associate with Yujiro just kind of accept that 1: he's a massive prick and 2: he will probably permanently maim you at some point. If you're the sort of punchman who is okay with this, you will become great friends. Edit: let's also not forget that time Yujiro just sucker punched (kicked) him because he caught him a tiny bit tipsy.

I suppose the "maiming each other then suddenly friends" comes from how much Itagaki loves combat sports, which really focus on the "leave it in the ring" stuff. Like, you try and kill each other while you're fighting, but it's just sport.

The entire thing that makes Yujiro hilarious is that he has no concept of what a ring is except "the place where giant pussies go to fight" and just randomly loving murders people for shiggles Nobody in the cast should be willingly associating with him at all by this logic

Look, being within a 20 foot radius of Yujiro Hanma is basically consenting to being in a fight anyway. It's hardly like he's a guy you just bump into.

Okay I'm just gonna say it. As much as I'm enjoying the Baki Netflix series... god drat is some of this animation awful. Like this series seems kinda bad, as much as the Baki punchmans magic keeps me going.
