>>274971758
>>274971758>Itagaki acknowledging the scuffed finishso he's fucking with us and knows Jack didnt even take on Final Form Pickle before the call
>>274971778
I wanna crawl up Jack's ass
>>274971810
>>274971839
>>274971810shouldn't jack be bleeding out all over with that gut wound
>>274971867
>>274971873Wounds don't matter, until they do.
>>274971896
>>274971758huh... but he never said the match was over. He correctly stated that JACK declared the match to be over.
>>274971922
>>274971873>he thinks a Hanma can bleed outlollmao even
>>274971949
Jack mogs Hanayama hardcore, this won’t even be a fight.
>>274971976
>>274972006fucking based response
>>274971949>>274971976>>274972006Hanayama is a good kid.
Yes, Tokugawa will keep getting away with it
>>274972006
>>274972006>mind your own business, shitty gremlin...
>>274972021Of course he will.He's an invincible gremlin.>>274972030Based Jack trying to get Hanayama to brawl.
Are we at the humbling part of the arc finally?
>>274972030
>>274972058fashionlet cope
>>274972058
>>274972056If Hanayama beats him right now, that's not really humbling since Jack is already wounded.And Hanayama is not beating a fully healed Jack.
>>274972086the balls on this man
>>274972086>nah, I’d win
>>274972086he's saying this like biting mattered against pickle lol
>>274972086Convenient reason for Itagaki's favorite son to not get maimed in this fight
>>274972122>even the shitty gremlin is fed up

>>274971873Damage in Baki is cosmetic.
>>274972171where did his neck go
>>274972171Jack culo
>>274972171that effect makes it look like Hanayama's got a boner...
>>274972171Why does he have a boner?
>>274972195You wouldn't?
>>274972187
>>274972171>the all penetrating bonerVS>unpenetrable culo

>>274971600One of my most depraved wishes is to watch two humans fight in a arena, baki style. I'm sure any human could only lasts a couple of fights before gets crippled or dies. I imagine someone built like jack vs another mma style guy, shit sounds fun.
>>274972215fuck I hope this'll be a brutal fight. Both of these bros are fan favorites so it'll be interesting at least
>>274972171wtf
>>274972058Jack’s right. Hanayama isn’t a real warrior and never has been.
>>274972215...over! You lost! Because you lack the will of the warrior!
>>274972171His quads are fucking short
How much is the entry fee to get to the underground arena? You are getting a pretty good deal if you come to watch two Jack fights in the same night
>>274972056Not yet, we'll see how poorly Jack handles an opponent who can match his power NATTY while having an actual brain
>>274972330GOD DAYUUUM. Pickle fuck this??
>>274972330Nnngh, THICC
>>274971600The bodies in Baki Dou style look so awful, this and the one with Pickle look like joke edits.
>>274972086fuck, that's so intentionally funny with his giant fingers fixing his glasses
>>274972171You guys like this kind of art?
>>274971600Now I get it, I do, Jack is a freak and the art style is inconsistent. But Jack's head being twice the size of Hanayama's is too much
>>274972675as a man with testosterone I enjoy watching two fighters starting each other down
>>274972675As a man with testosterone I enjoy watching two beefcakes ogling each other
>>274972006I love this dude
>>274972675Battletoads Jack
>Phony "win" against Pickle>Now Jack talking mad shit this chapterI'm rock hard for the Jack humiliation ritual.
>>274972122100%, I predicted that this fight wouldn't happen precisely because Jack has no qualms about permanently injuring his opponents. Also, because, let's face it - Hanayama has zero chance of victory even under current conditions.
>>274972675I like his earlier art a lot more.
>>274973037>Hanayama has zero chance of victory
>>274971839Jack should just attack him at some point
>>274972058The "I don't care about appearances" bit is such a pathetic cope after he got exposed at dinner with Yujiro. It'd be cool if he actually didn't give a shit about what other people thought, but he's nothing like Yuuichirou and it feels like he never will be at this rate.
>>274971600So much of Baki is just shitposting in art/story/dialogueWe'll never have anything like it again
>>274972006What a legend
>>274973085Don't get me wrong, I like Hanayama, but Jack utterly outclasses him. He'll get his "victory" through Jack's acknowledgement of his strength but the actual fight won't be close.
>>274973035>Phony "win" against PickleIs there a single character in the Baki gang who would have a problem with this?
>>274972675I personally love it. It's about the feel.
>>274972110Yeah honestly
>>274971701>>274971778Damn, Jack looking handsome today
>>274973176>He'll get his "victory" through Jack's acknowledgement of his strength but the actual fight won't be close.Wow THAT'LL sure be interesting!
>>274972673THE MOST FREE MAN IN THE WORLD!
>>274972171Someone had too much fun with the warping tool
>>274973178Not unless the convicts come back. I'm sure Spec would have words for that boya
>>274973178Not at all, a win is a win.
>>274972171He's thick...
>>274973035bro's taken enough roids to kill an Elephant the TEETH are what you have a problem with?
>>274973176How long will it take for Hanayama's first punch to land?
>>274972171
>>274973176Jack will end up biting him proving that he can't do it without Gouduo
>>274973407finally someone posts the unedited one
>>274972006He’s so awesome
>>274972058Jack could never pull this off
>>274973338
>>274972058Since when is Jack this much of a bitch?
>>274973469>even doppo is shocked
>>274973549Jack's entire philosophy this arcs about him throwing away appearances to claim victory. Someone who cares about how they appear to others will never have what it takes to win.
>>274972058Based, men who care about fashion are gay
>>274973623Hanayama dresses up for his underlings. If it was up to him, he'd still be in his fundoshi popping arm veins of people.
>>274972330>>274972374>>274972675Jack is built like that because he got surgery to become taller, you know that surgery started in russia to make manlets taller by breaking their leg bones, that's the thing he did to himself, his whole gimmick is to be a fake roid beast, everything about him has been modified, every muscle, bone and teeth, that's why he looks like a freak, his lower leg section is abnormally bigger than his upper leg section because the surgery is only done in the lower part
>>274971600have any of you tried reading Rappa Yankee Ninpuuchou, it is a delinquent manga but it has really good fights
>>274971867>>274971896>>274972215so why was hanayama there?
Jack...
>>274973853>someone so focused on appearances->AAAAAAA WHY ISN'T HE SCARED OF MY SURGICALLY INCREASED HEIGHT?!
can someone upload the "did you just nut in me with your mind?" - "haha so you noticed"
>>274973853is this the next chapter?
>>274973549He was always a cheeky little brat. Reread his interactions with Garland
>>274973637Thats what I’m saying. Whoever follows trends and “what’s in” are dumbasses who can’t think for themselves. Fuck you and fuck your gay fashion, mf.
Since Jack doesn't seem to know who Hanayama is there's a chance he has little idea on everyone else outside of his immediate family and the people who fight himIt took him a moment to remember Koushou when asked
>>274973985Jack had more outfits throughout the series than Hanayama, He's still in his white suit and leather boots since the first Baki series. If anything Jack is is the faggy trend chaser.
>>274972171lol
>>274972272Thank uu
>>274972006A king among men
>>274973959no, that was before the pickle fight
>>274974069Hanayama is literally in a thong 24/7, that’s gay af. Jack is not gay and he’s not a fashion fag like you and Hanayama
>>274973776To watch the fight? He's there for most of them.
>>274974508no why was with tokugawa in the arena.the way tokugawa said it made it seem like there was a specific reason for following him
I've heard Hanayama got a cool tattoo on his back. Wonder what's that all about
>>274974585a brand new joke
>>274972171If he has him fight without biting just so he doesn't have to figure out how to non-permanently disfigure him that's dumb.
>>274974542To fight, he wants to fight him right now and Tokugawa thinks that’s a rad idea.
>>274974585Here's a bit of lore for you.The tattoo depicts the Standing Man. Long ago, a man came to the house of the Hanayama family looking for food and shelter. Suddenly, a rival family came in to kill every single person of the family. Out of gratitude, the man hid the youngest boy inside the large bell and carried it on his back so he could save him.He was found a little bit later by the people that were sent to kill them. They asked the man to put the bell down to let them see inside, which he refused. The man refused, to which the assassins started to cut him down. But even during this furious attack, the man did not yield and kept standing his ground. Tired, the assassins left, and the man died heavily cut up standing while protecting the young boy.As a token of sheer respect, the Hanayama honors the Standing Man by putting a tattoo of him on their body. Kaoru eventually got his, but was unsatisfied with it, saying it was missing something. He then went out to fight a rivaling family, and the cuts he got on his body that day made the tattoo feel truly complete, as that was how the Standing Man ended up.It's rather obscure so I won't fault you for not knowing though, it's mostly just a bit of trivia.
>>274974351id suck off both and swallow their cum
>Oh boy this big scarred man is a prissy little princess lolololgod the writing of this arc seems a smidge dumber than usualAlso Hanayama is only 6'3? god the japanese are small if that's supposed to be towering
>>274972171Looks like Hanayama will take advantage of Jack's promise not to bite in order to give him a throatfuck.
Could Jack bite through a deck of cards?
>>274972082Jack has some great fits tho. Ali Jr. arc Jack is peak fashion.
I really hope Hanayama wins or at least doesn’t get permanently maimed. Fuck Jack for permanently maiming people and taking away good fighters.
>>274975332Pretty sure that's the reason for the whole no biting comment. The best places to bite would be the most annoying places to figure out a way to magically heal them later.
>>274972675yeah
>>274972171Great contextless Baki page to post
>>274974913Sometimes he looks 3 meters tall and sometimes he’s only barely taller than Katsumi
>>274972056I hope so.
>>274975596Yeah compared to Tokugawa who is supposed to be 4'10 he looks like 10 feet tall>>274973407
Jack is so fucking dead
I'm enjoying the gay Gaia/Sikorsky spinoff more than the main series now somehow, Jack v Haneyama doesn't really excite me for some reason
>>274976251>Haneyama
>>274976277Yeah Haneyama Kaori
>>274976312It's hanatabi kairi
>>274976312>>274976485
>>274973111That's because a large part of the arc so far is Jack not realizing he isn't as hardened as he thinks he is. He's not used to people playing on his level or giving him praise, so when it does happen he's caught off of his serene master act. He was acting all mellowed out when he was hanging with Tokugawa in Sumo Dou, but that's only because he thought he had arrived at completion. He's still inexperienced in some ways, and this arc has been displaying that very prominently. He's been running around doing some showy exhibitions of his new style, like with Sabu, but he's not noticed how immature he still is. >Koshou gets him to cry out in surprise (and pain?) with a small nibble even after Jack dumpstered him>Yujiro calls him out at dinner for his desire for praise>he repeatedly gets caught up in soaking in the crowd's cheers>Pickle doesn't even go all-out against him and walks off; Jack doesn't realize that Pickle had more in him and just accepted his concession>Motobe and Gaia talking about how Jack is all about the purity of fighting, unbound by the constraints of style or pageantry, but he's been playing up the pageantry as of late>needs his fights to be in the ring where people can watch him winJack is being set up here, but we'll see if Itagaki actually pulls the trigger on him actually growing from this or if Jack remains arrogant.
>>274976251Using Jack v Pickle to build up Jack v Hanayama feels strange, also the manga repeated over and over that Pickle has no real technique, when Hanayama barely has technique either, he just winds up a big punch for three chapters that everyone jacks off to for how cool he looks doing this and then afterwards he tanks some damage and then he loses. Hanayama v Pickle actually sounds like a more fun fight if anything.
>>274976598You have to admit it is pretty cool
>>274976575I really hope he gets humbled and doesn't just tear through most of the cast learning nothing along the way.
>>274976598But it DOES look cool!
>>274971873In baki people can just tank bleeding with adrenaline pumpingYou would need to cut out 3 arteries for it to have an effect
Are we just going to have all the fighters fight each other again several times over? How about something new
>>274976598itagaki pigeonholed him too much into brawling with wide punches, back in the mt he used flying kicks and shit. He did kick hanada in one of the recentish chapters so he may again plan to expand anayama's repertoire
>>274976598no matter how many times he does the exact same thing it's fucking cool
>>274977027I wouldn't mind thatThe Pickle fight was anticlimactic but the fights before this in Goudou have all beem fun imo
>>274971600The sumo-filler arc was really worth the wait. I hope Jack will also rape Baki next.
What is he doing with his fingers?
>>274973035Tokugawa legalized weapons two arcs ago
>>274977485he is dislocating them so after he throws a punch, the centrifugal force of him pulling his fist back relocates them and doubles as a backfist strike
>>274973306Personally I only have a problem with it because of this "it's a martial art for the weak and oppressed" thing that's popped up a couple times. It really isn't, unless you install titanium shark teeth lol
>>274977585Then why wasn't Sukune allowed to bring diamond armor?
>>274972675I feel like Baki's art has morphed in to a parody of itself multiple times over. Itagaki just has some unhealthy need to keep taking it farther and farther. At this point it's a simulacrum of a simulacrum of a simulation of absurd muscles.
>>274977912Eh?
>>274972675It's funny, unique, and fitting for Baki. When you see the art, you know it's Baki, and that's a good trait for an art style of a manga series. Besides, not every manga needs to be the same highly realistic and stylistic masterpiece.
>>274978060Baki's Musashi is one of my favorite character designs ever. I love how he seemed to look like a big cat
>>274973111>>274976575yep and he's gonna get wrecked soon.
>>274978126Agreed. And also I miss him...
>>274978060i dont know if i got some brain damage recently but musashi went from looking gross to kinda cute to me
>>274978257he's moe
>>274978126zoomers obsessed with talking about "aura" are not ready for Musashi's wild ride, the contrast from Pickle's run into Musashi's might be my favorite back to back story beats in anything i've ever consumed
I like Rahen but the structure of the story is off, Jack's "journey" to facing Yujiro doesn't feel like anything he actually has to be doing.If Baki was a 90, fighting 95's before Yujiro (100), Jack is like a level 99 doing sidequests. Pickle was used way too early in this story and gave a very lackluster performance. People have been saying Kaku for years, but Baki is really the only other person in the story who could beat Jack more times than not so I have to imagine they fight at some point.
>>274978708Jack couldn't even make Pickle scream or get serious. He's nowhere close to Yujiro or even Baki.
>>274971873tis' but a scratch
Jack is getting too arrogant and caught up in theatricsAli Jr, already humbled by the cast and having trained for the past few hundred chapters, will rematch Jack and soundly beat him with his now purified combat mindset
>>274976575>Jack doesn't realize that Pickle had more in him and just accepted his concessionNah, that definitely wasn't the takeaway from that
>>274972171anon edited a page once during a dump and looks like he's going to do it every time now >>274971600
>>274977485Preparing them to show them up Jack’s deep demon asshole, deep, deep inside. Then he’ll press on the prostrate, releasing all of the stored up steroid cum he’d saved there to impregnate Yujiro with, but now Hanayama will swallow it all and gain 9000g of protein in a single gulp
>>274975332The only guy Jack permanently maimed was Sukune by eating his pinky. Everyone else just lost their trapezius, biceps, and skin, which obviously all grow back naturally.
Jack couldn't really follow through on his words before his fight with Pickle.You guys think he will be forced to use biting in order to win?
>>274976598>Using Jack v Pickle to build up Jack v Hanayama feels strange, also the manga repeated over and over that Pickle has no real technique, when Hanayama barely has technique either, he just winds up a big punch for three chapters that everyone jacks off to for how cool he looks doing this and then afterwards he tanks some damage and then he loses. Hanayama v Pickle actually sounds like a more fun fight if anything.Yeah, also Sukune was kinda just Hanayama but better. Sukune was taller, had a stronger grip, and Sumo techniques. Only thing Hanayama might have over his is punching power and guts.
>>274979325That ultimately ruined Sumo arc.
>>274979325Why didn't Itagaki let Sukune crush his jaw with his diamond press grip is beyond me.
>>274971600>roidtranny vs all natty
>>274974351>>>>>>>>>>>>>Jack is not gay
>>274977027>fight fag manga>how about the characters don't fightWhat the fuck do you want, for them to have sex instead?
>>274979670That worked for Yujiro
>>274972171uhmmmm uhhh uhhhh
>>274971829Gaia.....
>>274979670I didn't say that, I said they should fight new characters. Why don't you try reading better?
>>274977027I want a new Maximum Tournament arc involving a bunch of returning characters now stronger than before, Itagaki is too old and it'd never get finished in this day and age though
>>274973176Jack hasn't heard the story of Hanayama's tattoo yet
>>274980906Yeah the initial maximum tournament had too many whosnow you have >Baki>Jack>Yujiro>Hanayama>Gouki>Doppo>Katsumi>Katou>Shinogi brothers>Chiba>Motobe>Gaia>All 5 prisoners>Kaku/Shobun/Jaku>Ali Jr>Oliva/Guevara>Pickle>Sukune>Musashiwith 6-8 debuts minimum if you're unhappy with any of those you'd have a top tier tournament
how has jack never even once seen hanayama around during any of the story?
>>274976575>he repeatedly gets caught up in soaking in the crowd's cheersThis never comes across as being surprising or a realization for him, in fact on his first encounter with Sukune he was the one to literally say they should put it off for the arena because he wanted praise.
>>274980906>>274977027Bring back the convicts, it's time. I agree that the "x fights y of the main cast, because" thing right now is boring. Baki is best when there's some meaning behind things, imo. Either that or develop Pickle properly.
>>274978686I do like it a lot, even the when it takes the turn at that weird interview into him vs the police.
>>274981466If Itagaki does bring them back from oblivion, Katsumi better be the one to finish Dorian
>>274972122>two I'd wins in a rowIt's over
>>274973407kek
>>274973425I could see this happening. Then you have the same double interpretation as Baki vs Pickle
>>274978708I agree. He fought Kosho of all people, too. rather have had Kosho against this de-mystified Pickle to be honest.
>>274981282Imagine if Katou wins
>>274981282To be fair, the main cast as we know it didn't really form until after the Max tournament. Everyone except Baki, Doppo, and Haneyama seemed like a who at the time. Kosho got loads of focus for someone who get wrecked immediately in the convicts arc and relegated to irrelevancy afterwards, probably surprised people at the time
Dokugawa is so unilikable now
>>274982890>now
>>274981466I can see that. Honestly seeing Spec come out of his swim coma to get crushed by Jack after ambushing him in a park or something would be great. We know Jack can handle fighting a swordsman, but can he handle a dirty fighter like Spec, or Dorian?
Is jack evolving or devolving? is this going to be another ali jr case?
>>274976575Pretty much this, jack still a kid trying to impress other (specially his parents) is probably going to end with Daiane showing up and having a heart to heart with him
>>274979033I mean, it is true that he was cool declaring his win and Pickle just accepting it instead of fighting back.
>>274971600Speak English faggot.
>>274984416The statement acts like Pickle didn't lose after giving it his all. It's just anon not realizing Itagaki nerfed him. It's not like Pickle unknowingly humbled Jack.
>>274981332I don't mean to say he's aware of his sudden interest in it. It's just been clearly shown to be something characters have noted about him. Yujiro even brings it up.
>>274979445So Hanayama could do it.
>>274984496Jack isn't at the humbling stage yet. I don't think he's even really considered the weight of Koshou's words toward him yet. Jack is being paraded as acting like he's grown a lot recently when he still has a ways to go.
Jack dissing on Yakuza feels so forced. It would be one thing if it was Shibukawa he was facing for the first time but dude is built like a truck and has a fucking gnarly scarred face.
>>274984181That level of arrogance isn't uncommon for Baki so it's hard to tell whether his in particular will get punished
>>274984721I don't think it's forced because Jacks whole thing is completely disregarding appearance and pretense to win at all costs, so him taking offence to someone clearly putting so much effort into cultivating his image makes sense.
What did people think about Matobe vs Musashi when those chapters were coming out?
>>274984721Jack didn't even need this trash talk, he could have just asked lol
Manga will end with Jack transitioning after Yujiro rapes him.
What ifJack insults the Standing Man
>>274984873oh, the Godtobe chapters
>>274981197oh my god he hasn't, has he
>>274981197TL;DR?
>>274986934something something a deck of cards
>>274971600Oh it's because the f key is next to the g
>>274986090Jack would unironically lose because the weight of Hanayama's ancestors would actually start to posses his fist to give it more weight.
>>274971600I will never understand how fags can look at this art and think it looks good, no matter the context or story
>>274987062finna is "fixin to"
There's at least three different ways that Jack's ideology falls apart and yet Itagaki would probably take none of them and just go "BakiWinsLol"
>>274987211By having working eyes and brain
>>274978708I think Jacks journey is more about him learning humility>Gets a win on Sukune and soaks up the admiration the crowd gives him >Wins two fights against some jobbers but flips his shit because one of them nibbled on his ear>Doppo stating that Jack shouldn't act so cocky just because of how good Goudou is>Calls out Yujiro for trying to bait him into a fight >Starts talking shit about surpassing Yujiro causing him to laugh and then spank Jack instead>Tries to fight Pickle in the middle of the street>Fought a Pickle that wasn't trying half as hard as last time, declares himself the winner before the judge does and Pickle gifts it to him because Baki taught Pickle to fight for fun and not for food>Soaks up the admiration>Starts talking mad shit to Hanayama because he didn't want to comment on GoudouJack loves the attention winning fights gives him a little too much
I wonder why people are staring to dislike Jack? He’s confident, that’s the issue? And downplaying his wins against strong fighters.Hanayama is cool and all but Jack’s gotta win. If he don’t then this fight will be as shit as the Baki vs Kengass movie. Hanayama can suck my cock. Jack for the win.
when is musashi
>>274990351Of course Jack should win, but that isn't the point people are making. You're being reductive of the issue here because you're acting like a blind fanboy and forgetting what people loved about Jack's character for so long. I don't dislike Jack, but this is a very new direction for his character and it very much feels like a setup for some new character growth.
>>274991801nobody asked for your option, bitch ass
>>274982166Same as Baki v Yujiro too
>>274990351>I wonder why people are staring to dislike Jack?You are strawmanning
>>274977810Armor is still illegal
>>274972171KEK i thought this was an edit. Holy shit Itagaki is so gay
>>274972675As a man with testosterone I would suck both of them off.
>>274978233Tokugawa was a dumb retard for giving his swords back, musashi should've obtained them on his own perhaps holding someone with modern knownledge hostage and then going on a killing spree to "test" his swords.
>>274972171>Jack's massive ass>Hanayama's boner
>>274993848Agito never stood a chance
>>274972215>another break
>>274990351Because his fighting style has reduced itself from a mix of striking, grappling, throwing, and biting to just biting and throwing.Also we're repeating the same beat as in the MT where he's disregarding everything for the goal of beating Yujiro just now we're adding appearance to those things and Itagaki will never bring up any of the logical fallacies Jack could be countered by but won't be until Itagaki gets bored of his toy and even then it's not assured he will actually point said fallacies out and just go he lost because 'he's not the titular character moving on'.
>>274972171The art just gets goofier over time. I fucking love this manga.
>>274973338About 8 chapters.
Im getting bored of Jack's pitbull arc. I hope Hanayama beats his ass.
>>274989398Thats the vibe im getting too.
I can't believe Jack is gonna fucking die
>>274990351As with all manga some people vehemently dislike certain characters, Jack is hated by some because he's the third wheel in the Hanma family (which means nothing) and some people don't want to accept that Jack is still very much above most of the cast, especially after he lost to Memetobe.The other reason why they're hating on Jack is because the fights are more about philosophy than brutality, see how this fight with Pickle was more of a highlight for Pickle becoming civilized and learning when to concede and admit loss between peers rather than going all or nothing like he did until Memesashi put him in his place, it was a good fight but the average reader nowadays just doesn't get that the series does not cater to certain kinds of audiences who should stay in their containment threads.>Hanayama is cool and all but Jack’s gotta win.Eh, again, fights in Baki are more about character development and philosophies, which is why people (read: spics) also dislike how Jack vs Pickles ended up being and Hanayama vs Jack looks more of the same.Me, I can see Jack conceding and declaring a loss out of admiration for Hanayama's resolve even if he didn't lose in practice, can't have the standing man fall after all, especially after Hanayama vs Musashi.
>>274997850>I can see Jack conceding and declaring a loss out of admiration for Hanayama's resolve even if he didn't lose in practiceThat's what I was thinking. Jacks going to be humbled and grow from losing to Hanayama
>>274997850A competent writer can make a match philosophically good and satisfying as a fight at the same time. Jack's fight against Pickle is simply badly executed. It makes Pickle look like a weak bitch and Jack look like an undeserved winner who never got his opponent to take him seriously. It makes both characters look worse, which is pretty much the worst thing a fight can do for both parties involved in a story.
>>274998593It felt like bootleg WWE writing. Like some shitty backyard wrestling storyline.
>>274972058This makes me think, does Jack not know that this dude fights with his cheeks on full display?
>>274972030>jack of all people lecturing Chadayama on braveryThis dude.
>>274998593>>274999328>Caring about aestheticsNGMI
>>274981851>the span of chapters where Musashi was hacking down cops>halfway through we get interrupted by Yujiro threatening to rape Hillary>"haha, that was wild">read Baki Dou (2018) Ch. 101>
>>274999588Jack never pussied out of a fight, this is the man that gave Pickle PTSD by getting back up every single time he got knocked out to the point Baki had to come in to stop him.Both have unbreakable willpower, but the difference is that Hanayama has an aesthetic reason for that while Jack has an emotional reason, which I suspect will be the theme of their fight, conviction based on personal aesthetic vs conviction based on emotions.
>>274990351he's C*nadian
>>274999451This is like the second time ever he's talked to Hanayama. Jack doesn't know anything about him
>>274990351>Hanayama is cool and all but Jack’s gotta win. If he don’t then this fight will be as shit as the Baki vs Kengass movie.Preemptively bitching already.Jack fags are the most pathetic
>>274999695Jack didn't give Pickle PTSD. He thought Jack was a ghost/zombie. Something his caveman mind couldn't understand. He had the same frightened reaction to Yuichiro's ghost
>>274990351>He’s confident, that’s the issue?Can you nake an even dumber strawman?People don't like shitty fights and this arc so far makes me want Sumo back.
>>274999695Jack's final moment in the Pickle arc is screaming and crying over how Pickle beat him so badly he thought Jack was a meal.
>>275000154Sukune was a fun character. Almost makes me wish he was the one who fought Pickle just now, since he wasn't a strat fag like Jack
>>275000154This fight was better than every single sumo dou fight
>>275000487Lol
>>275000578I accept your concession
>>274997850Shut up, dickhead
>>275000487The sumobowl was better, the fact the sumo redshirts Itagaki fed to the Bakigang put more of a fight that FUCKING PICKLE alone puts it above Jack Dou
>>275000032Seems someone enjoyed that shit movie, shit taste lmao
>>275000713There was never a fight to begin with.Goukis fight clears everything we got so far. Not even a contest.
>>275000154Then go to Japan if you want to watch fat fucks fuck, mf
>>274971600Has jack been been stealing the shins of his opponents and getting them surgically added to his legs like war trophies?
Jackhaters are not even hiding it at this point
I've been following these threads for a long time and I remember when Musashi Dou was the current arc and people were hating it calling garbage and wanting to go back, until Sumo Dou started then everyone started saying they loved Musashi Dou and wish they could go back because Sumo Dou is garbage. Now it's happening again with Sumo Dou and Rahen and the cycle will begin again with Rahen and the next arc.
>>275000807>still strawmanning Everything out of your mouth is completely worthless
>>275000955>every arc is worse than the lastGrim.
>>275000982No it's that you guys are retards that complain about Current Thing and have nostalgia goggles on for the past.
>>275000955Hanayama vs Musashi was better than any Sumodou fight, and Shibukawa vs Kyogei was better than any Rahen fight thus far. I'll say that much
>>274972675It is unique and thats not very common in manga. Been to Milan last year and saw the statue of San Bartholomeo in the cathedral. His skinned body kinda looked like a Baki character dude. Bakis art is ugly and inhumane at first but you appreciate it and see how the grotesque forms are meant to represent men who are not quite human anymore. That being said, it has gotten a little bit too "thick" for my tastes. That one doppo panel where he just stands there like a tower is misshapen clay is kinda telling. No one has a neck anymore.
>>275001862>It is unique and thats not very common in manga.It's more common than you think, it's just that a lot of that stuff doesn't get scanlated because most scanlaters just want romcom slop to fund their patreons. You can go on a jp manga store and type in whatever niche interest you want and I guarantee you'll find plenty of interesting looking stuff. I do it all the time.
>>274979357All he had to do was bite Pickle's balls, but I guess Jack didn't really want to win afterall
>>275002283Fair enough. I wouldn't know. >>275001135>Hanayama vs Musashi >he stepped into the darknessSo fucking good.
>>274999917Jacks so deep into his own little world he probably only has faint idea's of who everyone is outside of his Father and Brother
>>275000957Speak English motherfucker
>>274972171>the bonerkino
>>274999695The theme of this fight is for jack to learn to not judge a book by its cover and also to curb his arrogance. Dude has been up his own ass with his latest win streak.
>>274972171The boner has to be intentional.
>>275004993ofc man, all of mine are>>275004947I wouldn't be upset if jack got humbled by Hanayama, and I love me some Jack.
>>274972171Jacks legs look fucking retarded.
>>274971839WAS IT THE ANNOUNCER OR JACK YOU LITTLE FUCK
Jacktroons, it's not looking good...
>>275005237They should, the shins is where you extend the bones with bone extension surgery. Jack should be depicted with retarded legs and a retardedly small torso. He went from 190cm to 243cm
Hanayama is going to win because the author likes him more. He hasn't lost resoundingly since the maximum tournament. He always gets author handjobs. You know this to be true.
>>275006919he will get the moral victory when Jack bites his throat off
>>274979068hes been doing this for the whole arc almost, thats the joke
Jack will beat the shit out of Hanayama who refuses to fall because STANDING MAN and resort to biting him out of frustration and lose the moral victory
>>275008134that sounds likely, but Itagaki hasn't planned that far ahead
>>275008134I am wagering that Hanayama will be maimed/disfigured after this fight. Might lose a hand, might lose a foot, but I strongly feel that mutilating Hanayama will seed him to become strong enough to fight with the Convicts if/when they ever come back.
>>274973176Original Hanayama is utterly outclassed. Current Hanayama is a near unstoppable monster that was retconned to have always been like that. Original:>ripped a chunk out of a deck of cards>squeezed a boxer's arm so hard it exploded>got oneshot by AlexanderCurrent:>swam to the bottom of the ocean and killed a giant shark by punching through its eye and crushing its brain>was shot dozens of times in a driveby only to casually take off his glasses and chase down the car on foot>tanked multiple sniper rounds without falling before crashing through multiple walls to track down the shooters>stopped Pickle's tackle who then compared his strength to a dinosaur>caught Musashi's sword with his fist
>>275009627A deck of cards...?
>>275009733He can also bend a 500-yen coin!
>>275009733it didn't take much to impress us, back in the day...
>>275009750What the fuck
>>275009792I bet Jack can't bite through that
>>275009792Unironically hydralic press level pressure needed to do that
>>275009823yawn.>>275009821idk man he's got metal teeth that's pretty wacky.
>>274995341It's time for him to watch another [MMA fight/sumo tournament/etc].
>>275009627Hanayama already had bullet scars in the MT and he needed Tokugawa called up Kureha in order to perform emergency surgery to recover from being sniped. He didn't even walk into the hospital, Ryuji had to drag him there. Retsu also caught Musashi's sword with his fist I'm pretty sure
>>275010178>Retsu also caught Musashi's swordWith his leg lmao
I really want Hanayama to have a win. He's been doing nothing but jobbing since beating spec.
Do I have to read manga to get all of baki, or has it all been adapted to anime by now?
>>275010178>Retsu also caught Musashi's swordWith his spine lmao
>>275010684Anime is like 3 arcs behind now.
>>275010684>>275010772And also not to forget, there are also a bunch of spinoff manga that are fun. Like a slice of life Hanayama, and Isekai Retsu.
>>275010772Does the anime at least start at the beginning? for some reason I thought this was a berserk situation where the beginning was skipped
>>275010904It wasn't skipped but the early anime is absolute dogshit, while the manga that covers those chapters has some amazing art. I would read manga up the convict art and watch anime from there (or both from there).
>>275010963The early anime has its charm.
>>274997850this
>>275011507Shove this up your ass
>>275011540kinda gay desu
>>274997850>The other reason why they're hating on Jack is because the fights are more about philosophy than brutalityIt's so sad watching you try to do all these gymnastics rather than just admit it was kind of a boring fight. Baki has plenty of good fights that do the things you're describing and this wasn't one of them.
>Guy comes up to you and respectfully wants a contest of strength>HURRRR I would beat you using tricks and circus moves I don't wanna compare strength with you cuz... I just don't wanna OK!?Why is Jack such a faggot?
>>275012016Roiders and troons are two sides of the same coin
>>275012016Jack is letting his ego get the better of him. He desperately needs to get his ass beat. If Hanayama cant do it i atleast want to see Yujiro fucking clown on him.
>>275012364He already spanked him.
>>275012434Yeah but that's just teasing. I want Jack to challenge Yujiro for real and Yujro to just absolutely shit on him.
Jack's fights in Dou 2 overall have been quite bad. None of them are as exciting as Jack vs Pickle round 1, for example.
>>275012660The Sukune fight was good
>>275012672That was his highlight. But Goudou is getting stale.
>>274971982You mean jack the jawless? LOL
>>275012672Even then Jack himself was really boring in it. Sukune was clearly the protagonist in that one.
Even in a Jack arc there needs to be some side stories going.
>>275012978This. You need a break every now and then. It's been nothing but back to back fights for a while now. Let me see some characters do some retarded flexes or some shit. It's been a while since we've seen anyone do something stupid for no reason while the narrator tries to make it sound cool.
>>275012978When is Yuji walking down his next street?
>>275012672Most of the cool shit that happened in that fight came from Sukune
Rereading the Musashi stuff, it's really silly that Kaku came to be a shocked face.
>>274972331He represents a higher ideal.
