One sided victories that end with characters acting as if it was an even match is not exactly new for Baki. And that's one of the reasons we love it

This is the weirdest Baki arc of all time. if Itagaki doesn't do that then he's gonna get body slammed by a dozen perfect sumo wrestlers irl

He also set up those losses by having sumo wrestlers make MMA fighters look like absolute clowns so I'd imagine they're the biggest losers of all here

I'm just mad because Kehaya had the incredibly strong opening of having the most reasonable reaction to meeting Yujiro possible then spoiled it by being "I will never know defeat" while jobbing aggressively for far too long

I like how Baki's explanation is "but you're a huge guy, so if I had done a contest of strength you would have won!" like that's supposed to make the sumo guy look any better. Someone in a much lower weight class beating someone in a higher weight class and going "if I had just let you punch me more, you probably would have won"

The weird part about the ending to this arc is that it doesn't add anything to the whole concept or philosophy. It was just... "I guess Baki will win now to end this poo poo." It could have ended with Jack winning and been pretty decent. Instead we got a bunch of pointless Kehaya chapters and then even more chapters hyping up a secret technique which boiled down to warming up before the fight.

could itagaki, in 2023, conceivably get over an MMA fighter as any kind of threat, or even beyond an immediate reaction of 'this is a person drawn entirely to get destroyed.' i don't think he can unless it's some guy who was trained in the ultra secret BJJ fighting style that originated from the initial portugeuse colonizers.Glagha posted:I'm just mad because Kehaya had the incredibly strong opening of having the most reasonable reaction to meeting Yujiro possible then spoiled it by being "I will never know defeat" while jobbing aggressively for far too long

Glagha posted:I'm just mad because Kehaya had the incredibly strong opening of having the most reasonable reaction to meeting Yujiro possible then spoiled it by being "I will never know defeat" while jobbing aggressively for far too long actually no I am going to add to this, because after thinking about it- Kehaya had two of the funniest loving pages in recent Baki history in the same chapter and they both even follow his weird ethos of 'tactically retreating' or whatever and it was great.  I saw this page and thought "so long to that man's ankle" but no. as a testament to how unexpected that was (and also yujiro's modern softening) yujiro basically let him take the offense again which is conceptually wild. then kehaya realizes he's not gonna get his one good strike in and bails.  absolute hilarity, king poo poo and then he gets mulched and then again in the postfight

the only people who can safely be comic relief in Baki are all the various permutations of Dave (34), Rapist, then again that mountain climber

Thanks for finding it so quickly, dunno if it’s worse for being in colour. This is clearly not an ultimate assassination technique however.
