Glagha posted:I always wonder why dudes even pick fights with Yujiro of their own accord. Guys that should know who he is. I guess it's just because the entire cast is made up of giant fightboys with more muscle than brains and they just want to punch each other to death. (but then live anyway through increasingly absurd amounts of punishment) I think the last one to do so was Hanayama and that was when everyone was being afflicted with the dreaded curse of The Yawns so he required some extreme thrills to feel again. Yujiro has always been the shittiest part of this series though so whenever the plot doesn't even tangentially involve him is when Baki is at its best.

Sindai posted:I'd actually be really surprised if there's never been a throwaway "look at this strong sumo guy, now look at this new character totally destroy him" moment in any previous Baki series like there have been with countless MMA fighters and kickboxers. That happened in Garouden, but I'm drawing a blank on sumo in Baki apart from the one who participated in the tournament in the first series

Ulio posted:Whats the order of the mangas? I took a break from reading Grappler Baki because it didn't have many chapters translated a while back. Randomly started watching the netflix series and man I love this series so much. All my favorite parts of shounen, over the top craziness going on. Grappler Baki --> New Baki (what the Netflix anime is based on) --> Baki - Son Of Ogre --> currently Baki Dou (first the Miyamoto Musashi arc, we're currently on Thicc Boy Season) AFAIK due to hilarious translator pettiness only New Baki and Son of Ogre are available completely translated, Grappler Baki and the Musashi arc of Dou get sporadic releases here and there and the sumo arc is being translated as it is released (slowly). e;fb

There's a new(?) group that's pumping out new chapters from the first series, as well as redoing the series from the start. They're promising to release a full volume per week, most recent just got up to the second round of the big tournament arc. Overjoyed if this finally lets us have a proper run of the first series.

At this point Itagaki should just go all the way to the final frontier and have literal aliens show up to challenge the cast in order to give us competitive fights with possibly cool gimmicks. But I guess we'll get a third ancient sumo guy instead or something

He'll keep insisting that in fact the line of Kehaya still hasn't lost a single match in hundreds of years because of mumblemumblereasons and everyone will get a profound enlightened look on their face and agree that in fact this was a huge victory for ancient sumo today, here, at the arena
