Baki feels like a slice of life series at this point.
Where we just go check up on the guys, see how they're all doing, nothing big really happening anymore.
C'mon Itagaki go write something crazy again. Baki traveling the world, an alien invasion, Maxim tournament 2, fucking anything please.

That's basically what it is. Itagaki already said, the story he intended to write ended with the father-son-fight. He just keeps drawing this manga for the hell of it. Lower your expectations, we're not going to get a major shift from the status quo ever again.

What's the point of the last two fights? To establish the regular cast is powerful? We already knew that.

We had Retsu die post Father Son so fuck all to that idea.
>>
>>283563037
Fair enough. I keep forgetting Retsu's death was afterwards. Then again, Retsu was essentially already in a spin-off when the pickle arc ended.
>>
>>283563030
People who started reading in Rahen didn't know that yet. I don't know if anyone would start reading with Rahen, but Itagaki seems to think it's something to keep in mind.
>>
At this point I feel sorry for anyone that isn't part of the "Baki club". The strongest "normal" person outside the club was Kehaya, who got absolutely wrecked. Unless you're the reincarnation of an ancient warrior you don't stand a chance.

So, why was this any different to his regular karate? Just because he included Musashi style imagination projection?

Doppo is different because he street fights. The imagination technique was just showing off one of those differences.

Doppo is my husbando, like true deep husbando. If Itagaki does anything to him, I think of such ill thoughts if him he will spontaneously develop a thousand cards across each muscle fibre. I will make Musashi feel like a breeze from the blades of my grief.

"Smoking" Joe almost oneshot Retsu and he's just a practicioner of a juvenile 150 year old martial art born in England of all places.
Retsu even said that his strike made more of an impact than what he'd previously felt while fighting Hanma Baki, due to the fact that he used the boxing glove as a weapon.


Also these last few chappies felt like Itagaki resting after the beautifully choreographed culmination of an arc KINO that was Hanayama v Jack.

You've got it all wrong. Jack will "make her feel like a woman again" as he won't use the Male Style: penis kata, he'll use the Woman Style: vagina kata, except he'll imagine himself with a vagina so hard, it'll be as if he really has a vagina and he'll grind on her until she climaxes. Jack will show Baki a thing or two about imagination.

>>
>>283568350
In this case, Doppo appeared to be imitating Musashi. This is actual, legitimate progress for Doppo as a fighter. Not much is happening here but it makes us ask legitimate questions beyond "oh boy I wonder what's in the latest mystery box" like Kengan does. Ohma shows how "strong" he is by doing nothing interesting or special, he just punched his foe as he approached. He has some vague "didn't hurt lol" redirection nonsense he made that will definitely not get elaborated on in a satisfactory manner because he somehow pulled it off with Haruo trying to push him forward and it's nothing like Shibukawa's constant moving of your arms to screw up your balance and flow of power.

It comes down to execution really. A lot of Kengan is Sandro taking tropes from other manga like Baki and Tough without understanding why they worked in the first place, or muddying them with his sense of humor derived from SoL and metashit.

Baki went form having characters smash though buildings, thick metal doors , shake entire city blocks with their punches to now being peak IRL human tier.
I honestly think Koga or Takamura from Ippo would destroy any baki character(Yujiro included) at this point
>>
>>283573298
The wild power scaling is great. Remember when Baki knocked out Gaia by cutting off the blood flow to his brain for about 3 seconds, or when Baki was knocked out because he was given a handful of oxygen?
>>
>>283573403
It's retarded and inconsistent and fights is the only thing Baki has.
Baki might be the second worst written manga of all time, only dragon ball is worse
>>
>>283573432

>>283573448
I feel sorry for your bad taste, read Kengan or Vinland Saga or something

I personally have no idea what the reason was either time, and I read all of Baki twice. Wasn't he just pissed because she slapped him?
>>
>>283572467
This IS the seperate manga for random sol stuff.
>>
Does Jack have a girlfriend?
And did Kozue leave Baki for good? We haven't seen her since she tried disrupting the father son fight
>>
>>283573478
Then why does Itagaki rehash the Mouth fight only worse?
Kato questioning Baki for being smaller than him is retarded, he literallys aw him defeat the likes of Jack, Pickle and Taking Yujiro head on
>>
>>283573432
Power scaling is the least important aspect of every series about fighting.
>>
>>283568350
baki has likeable characters written fairly consistently, doppo always acts like doppo, and he's intrinsically entertaining to watch, with kengan characters get their personalities rewritten and watered down on a whim to facilitate the same tired curbstomp of hyped up jobbers it has been doing for 200 chapters

early on yes, yujiro was shown as a lot more sadistic and enjoying violence as its own pursuit, currently its justified more as "emi invited yujiro into a duel with the punch, and her death was a sign of yujiro taking the fight seriously"

>>283571510
oh hey that's me in the screencap! :D

>>283573698
Oh, right. I like the second one much more, so I don't mind the retcon - if it can even be called one, rather than just getting Yujiro's introspection.
>>
>>283573698
>>283573910
I genuinely thought that the entire conceit of the end of the first duel was that Emi realized she wanted to be a mother to Baki more than a lover to Yujiro, recognized that Yujiro would absolutely kill Baki if the fight continued, willingly interrupted the duel despite being horribly outmatched, and gave up her own life to save Baki's.

I also thought Yujiro's doubts about killing Emi were less about losing someone he cares about, and more a regret about killing someone that couldn't ever harm him. That is, a total display of power was a moment of weakness, like if any one of us were to kill a mosquito by using a .50 cal.

Emphasis on "his". I mean, did Doppo teach supersonic punches? That's something Katsumi came up together with Retsu by combining Chinese martials arts and Karate, not really Doppo's style, is it?
But of course he's a jobber and that wouldn't have been true at any point regardless.
Style questions aside, these side characters getting uppity is really funny, but also a head scratcher.

It's cool. It's like watching an old samurai film that has 80 minutes of build up and then a 30 second fight scene that ends with someone's death from a single stroke. The Japanese are masters of foreplay.

His first appearance was him walking into a boxing gym to kill some posers thinking they could be strong.

That's totally different. The boxers were weak-willed but pretended to be strong. Emi was strong-willed but also physically weak. Beating up the former is like bringing fire from the gods to a bunch of retarded monkeys. Crushing Emi is like snuffing out the last torch in a dark cave.

I want him to get the demon back so bad.

My ideal scenario is he fights Yujiro, and there's no father son bond, just a juiced up brawl between physical equals.
Yujiro wins, but gets a chunk bitten out of him that gets infected and slowlly kills him.
Jack survives the fight by regenerating from a single cell placed in a petri dish of steroids and hanma blood.

Itagaki likes to draw the Chin and nasolabial folds (red) connected and super defined like that. But he shades it too much so it looks unnatural and the bottom lip is too far away from the chin itself. They should be damn near connected.

>>283579669
The Standing Man?
Please enlighten me, I've never heard that story before.
>>
>>283579650
Being a japanese mafia it doesn't surprise me that the Yakuza care deeply about aesthetics.
>>
>>283579723
The story goes something like this:
There was a lone traveler who was offered shelter by a noble family in feudal Japan. On the same night, a group of assassins is sent to kill every member of the family in a bloody coup; the traveler attempts to flee carrying a large bell on his back, but is cornered by the bandits. They attack him, stabbing him, cutting him, beating and berating him, but the man is unmoved and stares at them aggressively. Many moments pass until the leader of the bandits realizes he has been long dead. Yet still, he stood there with the heavy bell on his back giving them the same threatening look, taking it as a sign the man has an incredible strength of spirit the bandits leave their bloody deeds done. The next morning the body of the man is found by the remaining servants of the deceased family still frozen in the same pose. It is then revealed that under the large bell he had been carrying he had hidden Yakichi Hanayama, the youngest heir to the Hanayama clan. As a tribute to this courageous act that spared their family, it is tradition for every male heir to bear the tattoo of the fearless man who saved them and is a symbol of kindness, hope, and great spiritual strength to them all. It's a symbolic example for them to live by even in the dangerous world of the Yakuza.
But that is not all! What makes Hanayama Kaoru's tattoo truly special is the elaborate webbing of scars that covers it! It is said that Hanayama got those scars when he went out to single-handedly destroy rivaling yakuza family!
>>
>>283579723
Here'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

I'm a retard, someone explain why Musashi saw what he saw with Hanayama and Baki
>>
>>283587523
Hanayama was perfect purety. There was nothing to gain or to lose from fighting him, he is the very definition of purety. Likewise, Hanayama saw Musashi as complete black, as utter filth, as the darkness in humanity.
Atleast that's my interpretation.

With Baki, I don't really know. It's just a narrative device, I guess. I don't exactly get what Baki did to make Musashi see that. I think it was just a way to tell us "shit's over for him".
>>
>>283587523
tl:dr;
Hanayama is pure because he doesn't train nor does he desire to get stronger, so he saw nothing but white light because Hanayama was somebody who was born strong and lived up to that creed, to Musashi who honed his skills to the limits that was beautiful purity of a man who was born perfect.
With Baki he saw a massive gourmet because Baki himself was incredibly skilled and willing to fuck around with him in a contest of strength, when Baki decided to stop fucking around and actually stop Musashi (with the help of the hag) he saw the empty gourmet because Baki would no longer humor Musashi and his ego.

I know it's not very Baki like but it's a lot more amusing than what we got.

Jack will have an internal battle with the demon within, it will be represented as negative space in the form of Yujiro the crowd of the maximum tournament surrounds them. As they battle Jack thinks back over the events of the part and about who he really is. The muscles on Jacks back twist and contort forming the face of the devil but before it sets Jacks tears and bites into the manifestations back causing damage to himself at the same time. The manifestation fades away, the crowd is gone.
We cut back to reality and end on a shot of Jacks back.
A serene expression and spanning wings.
The demon rejected, the angels back is created.

Speaking of the crossover do you think itagaki signed off on it?

Basically Itagaki's way of showing what would happen if Motobe didn't protect Jack
>>
>>283598043
Motobe is going to get eaten soon too
I wouldn't be surprised if he just leaves the country because without the element of surprise he is defenseless
>>
>>283598152
Jack will attempt to beat Motobe in his most powerful state (sitting crosslegged in his house) and will be subjected to Motobe's Mansion of Mischief

I think Yujiro's actions make perfect sense if you project Baki's onto him and use the final fight as an example. Yujiro just wants to explress his emotions and have a totally normal relationship with someone, but he can't because he's too strong.
Baki just wanted to have an argument with his father, Yujiro also wanted the same thing, He just wanted to play with his son, he just wanted to hug his wife. But he got frustrated because of Baki's weakness, almost killed him by being too rough. When he killed Emi he used all of his strength to crush her, both her and Baki seemed to have seen or understood him as just giving her a hug even though it killed her.
He calmed down and left afterwards out of a mixture of regret and satisfaction. He got what he wanted, his emotional satisfaction of having gone all out, but also destroyed something irreplacable in the process and felt actual loss because of it.

If you could, would you have Sandro write the final arc of Baki, and Itagaki write the final arc of Kengan Omega?

You'd get a beautifully written final arc that removes all of the chaff, a few extremely thematic/philosophical fights between the kenganvengers cast that prep Koga and Ryuki to finally defeat Shen(Extended backstory about how oftentimes athletes will plateau before something "clicks" and then they are suddenly launched at a whole new level. Not all progress is linear, especially when it comes to fighting, etc.)

But then you have to contend with the final arc of Baki being Jack and Baki forgoing decades of established characterization and going to kill Yujiro because a few states of the USA secede from the whole in order to fight against Ogre and then beg all of the S tiers of Baki to KILL Ogre because his "HEART" is "EVIL".

Jack and Baki get convinced because of Emi's death and the rape of the mother of Jack and they all go retardmode and idk Jack starts being able to do offensive Xiaori with his teeth and Baki takes steroids and does COCKROACH DASH: OVERDRIVE. And then after they win a shadowy figure says some shit like "There's now... "Two" of the "Ogre".......... we must "move" ahead with the "plan" immediately.....
>>
>>283605709
>If you could, would you have Sandro write the final arc of Baki, and Itagaki write the final arc of Kengan Omega?
I'd never want Sandro to write anything ever again and I don't think the characters in Kengan have the kind of substance Itagaki needs for his style of writing.
>>
>>283605754
Itagaki could do it but he'd need like 4 years to build shit up. Imho.
>>
>>283605709
why the fuck would i want that
>>
>>283605769
>He'd need like 4 years
Incredible...he could wrap Kengan Omega up in only 3 chapters...
>>
>>283605786
1. It would be funny.
2. Baki is already finished and everything post father-and-son fight is a fanfic so Rahen turning out shitty wouldn't ruin it that much. Inversly a good ending to Kengan Omega is something the poor fans deserve.
>>
>>283566340
lol.
you got a point, this feels so aimless itadaki could die tomorrow and no one would care or remember what happened in rahen or even miss it.

Baki won't end until Yujiro finally gets punished for all the bad shit he's done.

S-sandrovitch?!!

>>283598293
I believe there are definitely shades of that in his motivation, but I don't think Yujiro himself is aware of it or sees it that way. His pride and ego are supermassive and eclipse his rational sense. He subconsciously desires these things, but his strength and his almost narcissistic obsession with his own strength prevents him from understanding those ultimately human desires for what they are.
>>
I remember there bein a oage that said something along the lines of
>More than sex, more than food, more than water, more than breathing, this man loved violence.
Did I dream that up or was that really a line in the manga?
>>
>>283578495
if that was the case, we wouldn't have a series based on a 5'6 manlet.
>>
All this just for Jack to get slammed and kablammed by Hanada
>>
Do you think Jack will score a definite win against a strong main character this arc or will we continue on the path of him barely avoiding losing every fight?
>>
>>283609609
Its real. Father and Son fight exposition page.
>>
>>283605709
There's nothing to gain and everything to lose. A masterful ending wouldn't change the loose sand it was built upon. Even if this (apparently) final arc of Kengan Omega was the best finale ever penned by ChatGPT it would still go down as a pretty cool arc stapled onto an otherwise abhorrent manga. It would honestly be more insulting than anything.
Meanwhile Baki, despite its faults, keeps a level of quality that far exceeds Sandro's average. Baki has some low valleys, but incredible peaks. Sumo Dou was a bit of a misfire for most of its run, but it had its moments. Rahen is a little awkward, but it at least feels like it's going somewhere.
The moment Kengan Omega starts to show any kind of possible interesting development you are immediately reminded that the feeling is largely unintended and incidental to the author's wishes.
>>
>>283577086
Baki's main story finished after Baki had the imaginary dinner with Yujiro.

Now we're essentially just in the postgame doing random shit and exploring other characters until Itagaki gets bored and ends it.
>>
The one good thing about Sumo dou is how many anons it convinced to start watching professional sumo

I got into sumo in high school, I don't even remember what made me start watching it. It took YEARS to get some of my friends to watch it, and only one actually keeps up with it. My father has never liked a single thing that I introduced him to, but after the growing pains of sumo subsided (it took like 6 straight years) he finally likes it enough to shill it to his friends and they all think he's nuts now.

Sumo is Strong. Strong is Beautiful.

Hey that's me! I'm the one who started watching sumo after Dou!
The bursts of energy during the bouts and a lot of the techniques involved got me to stay, and noticing the overarching plots developing each bout started making it even more enjoyable, the final day last basho was so fucking hype

He comes up with all sorts of excuses and justifications for what he does, but I think even he knows.
That's why he actually got mad when Baki brought it up. He knows it's an emotional weakpoint of his and is insecure about it. It's the one part of him that's not strong at all and he can't do anything about it.
We've never seen it but I also imagine it's tied up into what happened with his father. He HAD a person in his life he could have truly connected to on every level, someone who wouldn't be hurt or frightened by his strength and who genuinely cared about him, and then fucked it up, threw it away without thinking, and now he's dead.

Did this even amount to anything story-wise?
I don't remember jack or baki confronting him about it afterwards and he hasn't raped or threatened rape since.
He raped jack's mom and literal decades go by irl without him doing anything like that again or anyone mentioning him doing stuff like that. People disregarded it as one of those weird "early yujiro" plot artifacts like him being tranquilized or when someone prevented him from opening a door.
Then itagaki says to his editor "hehe watch this" and drops the chapter dedicated to the rape of Joe William. Shortly after this is when your pic happens.
After that we're back to normal with no follow up.

Let me ask you this, did you really want a follow up of Yujiro raping men?

He threatened Elon Musk and Trump and might have actually done it.

>>283615295
He threatens US officials of rape with some exemptions so this isn't really tied with that.

You've got it all wrong. Kozue is the one raping Baki and making him feel the woman inside him.

>There is one event that has left a strong impression on my memory.
>That was in 2014 when I spoke to Itagaki-sensei, author of Grappler Baki.
>At the time, Itagaki-sensei was finally ready to relaunch the Baki series and start a new series after a year long break. To the surprise of fans, the serialization of Baki-do, which revives 'Musashi Miyamoto' using cloning technology and pits him against modern-day Baki and his friends, has begun.
>One day, over the phone, I was suddenly asked:
>Mr. Itagaki: "Saito-chan, Do you know what Halo 4 is?"
>Saito: "Eh...?You mean that foreign game...?"
>Mr. Itagaki: "Yeah, yeah, yeah... that Halo background art. It's amazing. I'd love to incorporate it into Baki!"
>Saito: "……!!?"
>Mr. Itagaki "So, I' m going to revive Musashi Miyamoto, aren't I? Can you make the underground facility there like Halo? I'll send you the setting references now."
>I was immensely impressed by so much. Halo is indeed a very well-known overseas title, but in Japan it had not yet become a big topic of conversation, and even more so when Itagaki-sensei, who was almost 60 years old at the time, was impressed by Halo's game graphics and decided to use it.
