Jack shoulda kept biting, bad tactical decision imo.

I think we are probably not done with the sumo guy.

I'm not sure this biting thing is really as big an innovation as Jack is making it out to be.

SyntheticPolygon

I don't think he would

He happily lays down on his back. He would do whatever it takes.

And then he got extremely pissed when a guy made him look like a fool by leaving while he was laying on his back. I don't think Yujiro will be doing that again.

Did anyone else forget that Jack actually used Shibukawa's aikido against Baki in the finals of the maximum tournament somehow? Not to discount biting but I feel like this guy might be kind of squandering his potential again.

Biting is stronger than aikido

The rock had evil spirits and curses in it. So it's much harder to break than a regular rock.

entire arc?

SyntheticPolygon
Dec 20, 2013

The point of the arc was so that Itagaki could write about a powerful sumo man because he wanted to write about sumo

SyntheticPolygon

It's a cool move imo.

Genuinely surprised that getting your foot broken was not part of some secret sumo strategy

SyntheticPolygon
Dec 20, 2013

I still feel cheated that getting your foot broken wasn't a secret sumo technique, so hopefully getting your ears ripped off is at least.

Itagaki wants to get back to doing Gaia & Sikorsky

SyntheticPolygon
Dec 20, 2013

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

SyntheticPolygon

Hyped for more Gaia & Sikorsky

Maybe you should read the freakin manga!

Its not that complicated tbh

SyntheticPolygon

I think at one point probably during one of those chapters where Yujiro is menacing the US president itagaki thought "lmao this guy is just too cool"

SyntheticPolygon
Dec 20, 2013

Yujiro has so much more testosterone than the average male that it's extremely hetero when he has sex with men.

SyntheticPolygon

He’s very strong.

The sport was treated with far more respect than Ali jr tbh.

The minor Baki cast is cool

I feel like everyone is a little too impressed by this biting thing

SyntheticPolygon
Dec 20, 2013

I think Itagaki just writes about whatever he wants and if he changes his mind about something he will immediately pivot without much care for prior setup.

Motobe can go from mediocre Judo dude with a grudge against Yujiro to weapon master and only guy who knows what a “real fight to the death” is. Ali Jr can go from super prodigy rival guy to punk loser kid that sucks etc.

I bet Itagaki was happy to write sumo until he got bored and started thinking about how biting is really cool instead.
