>>76920962This nigga used to be so ugly
>>76920962I kind of miss old /fit/ when there was a general for /fit/ anime/manga
>>76921026Meanwhile /fit/ is always about OP (kekke) being the trooned out wog and hemorrhoid posting
>>76920962His mom was hot as fuckAlso how /fit/ do I need to get to stop an earthquake by punching the floor
>>76920962Baki is so ducking Kino
>>76920962The anime's dogshit. It skips the Shinshinkai Tournament completely and tones down the violence and nudity. It also looks cheap as fuck compared to the manga
>>76920962I hate netflix baki but maybe I'll give the og a chance
>>76921693Just read the manga
>>76921026I'd be so happy if we could bring that back For me, it's Gurren Lagaan
>>76921693Watch the first season of 2001. The second could probably be manga readable. Also I would recommend the dub
>>76921775If you have real autism, I would recommend watch it with a crt filter like crtroyale using shaderglass, due to it being in 720p max. If you do that it kind of makes it look less grainy/blurry. It is fine either way though
>>76921756In what way is that related to /fit/ you niggerfaggot, you faggots were half the reason we lost those threads in the first place, cunts posting their offtopic non /fit/ anime shit derailing every thread
>mogs Baki
>>76921693the old cel-shaded shit is the only stuff worth watching. Same with HxH, the old series is wayyy better than the new one, although the Chimera Ant arc is pretty kino
>>76921789You wanna get antagonistic?
>>76921671>It skips the Shinshinkai TournamentLiterally nobody gives a shit about shinshinkai anything, the whole organization only exists as an aesthetic prop for Doppo and Katsumi. You're right about the rest tho.
>>76921991yes
>>76920962Shamo is peak /fit/>emotionally stunted autist>prone to sperg outs>5'6 midget constantly shit talks taller opponents>regularly browses /fraud/, immediately takes whatever stacks hes recommended>fights extremely dirty just because>takes notes from /fa/>different stages of life you can larp as>certified rapist
>>76922301Forgot to mention >picks up and puts down several martial arts, cant commit to a single one, just resorts to eye gouging anyway
>>76921693>I hate netflix baki but maybe I'll give the og a chancenetflix baki is a sequel to the original anime not a remake, you weren't supposed to start there. they just give a quick recap so brainrotted tiktokers can barely follow along even though they lose 90% of the characterization and context
>>76922301All style no substance, the manga.Sometimes that's not a bad thing.
>>76922301>goes to Shanghai to work as a gigolo and an underground fighting ring (what era is this??) >becomes obsessed with qigong superpowers after losing a fight to a guy with one arm>absconds from taking care of his druggie retard sister to learn how to read ancient Chinese battle manuscripts somewhere in the actual middle of nowhere>convinces himself that he can actually boil water with the esper powers of his mind or something>one arm guy kills grampa and kills his Chun-Li gf because of some old feud, still completely outclasses him in skill and strength >breaks his mask >one armed guy gets suicidal because someone saw his burn marks and drops himself off a cliff >realizes it was just someone more skilled than him fucking around with him and none of the chinese superpowers were real >...>goes back to japan>fucks around in an MMA gym for a while, probably gets brain damage >gets a schizo autist gf >his beachfront house that he has for some reason is finally stabilizing, he has his loyal puppy best friend, schizo gf, recovering druggie sister, and a dog >life finally looking up for Ryo>schizo gf's dad HIRES HITMEN to get his daughter back from Ryo >the hitmen are the dumbest, most retarded characters you have ever seen in your life>dies in literally the dumbest, most retarded way possible, rivaling Sun-Ken Rock with how bullshit and unsatisfying it was But damn if Shamo wasn't the most kino sports/seinen manga ever drawn though The Climber is definitely the best sports manga but it's unfair comparing anything to that because it's almost a perfect manga. Shamo is easily top 3
>>76922345>realizes it was just someone more skilled than him fucking around with him and none of the chinese superpowers were realDid this actually explicitly happen? I thought the bullshido just got soft retconned after the kung-fu arc.
Every panel Garou is in until it gets really weird in the last phase of the monster association arc with the galaxy garou shit and whatever garbage Murata wrote. Shit motivated me so much when I was starting.
>>76922350I inferred the conclusion
>>76922301Shamo was such a fucked read[Spoiler] >challenges champion to a fight in the ring>champion doesn't accept his challenge because different weight class and the champion politely declines>"yeah the reputable organisation i represent won't let us fight sorry man">MC says ok >MC rapes champion girlfriend just to piss him off>champion now accepts challenge in order to avenge girlfriend>keeps saying "I raped your girlfriend bro" during the fight>paralyzes champion and puts him in a comawe need more piece of shit MCs who just keep winning [/spoiler]
>>76922377He was a punk ass loser who died like a punk ass loser.
>>76922419twice as bright and half as long
>>76922249Doppo vs. Yujiro was one of the best fights in the entire series
>>76921973It's fine but watching a kid get punched in the face 100s of times and still win is a tad stale
>>76922744??? what dont you understand? his eyes had little green bits
I'd always get lost in the chronology, it didn't help that years ago tons of Baki manga wasn't translated. Then you have a lot of separate anime series, some start with Baki being like 13 years old, some with him being 17, sometimes it's about battling regular delinquents, sometimes it's a weird tournament or Baki fighting a giant protohuman... it's confusing as fuck. I think Jack's arc was skipped everywhere too. It's such a mess.>>76922377Shamo ended after the kung-fu arc. This Toma shits afterwards reads like a fanfic and cancels a lot of stuff that happened earlier.
>>76922865Ironically the other characters are far more interesting and compelling
>>76922740They had that fight in the anime
Is Ayanokoji a SARM goblin? The finale of season 2 really made me doubt his natty status
>>76922744>>76921973Yeah the show is a lot less fun nowadays when we know about CTE and that its SUPER fucking bad for your brain to constantly be getting knocked out. Fucking ippo would routinely get knocked out in his sparring sessions. I bet japanese boxing in the 80s was really like that too.
>>76924003Hajime no Ippo pictures boxers in their late 20s as basically fully exploited and ready to retiretimes have sure changed
>>76920962
>>76920962For me its garouden, shame its been left to rot
>>76921973s1 was absolute sport kino, nothing comes close for me for that snappiness and impact feeling
>>76925395I swear to God I get a test spike every time I see Ippo slip the smash at the last second
Toji will always be my motivation. One of the most downright iconic anime characters of the 2020s
>>76925685Is JJK good?
>>76925699no. the ending is also disappointing, however, not as disappointing once you realize the whole thing was mid from the very beginning.
>>76925685>be acucktami gaygay >introduce cool character >immediately kills him off>repeat
>>76921973Has Ippo gotten laid yet? I swear he's been trying to shoot his shot with Kumi for like 20 years.
So what’s the official list of /fit/ anime/manga?
>>76925719NoShe wouldn't be able to handle big mara anyway
>>76925699it is very good. and the ending is amazing and you will only realize how amazing once you have read it from the very beginning
>>76920962Baki - nothing happens - grappler is a shit boring seriesNothing happens. Dull. Tragically dullWhy does he look so ugly in that anime cover too?
>>76926490Did you not want Baki the grappler 2001? A looot happens in the arc where he looks like this.
>>76924003It's established that his coach intentionally trained him to throw it all into a fight because he intentionally crippled his arms and ended his career. And it's acknowledged that he trained Ippo wrong
>>76920962staying on a deficit is easier
>>76925804I'll list the few that come to mind>BakiAutistic martial arts. You can start with the netflix adaptation of the prisoner arc and go forward.>Hajime no IpoJust boxing>Slam DunkBasketball with actual insight into the sport. It also promotes healthy masculine values which is what made it famous if we are frank. It's about a delinquent that gets reformed through basketball.>BerserkThe main character Guts has an iron will and physical fighting with swords is /fit/-coded too. The second part gets more into high fantasy though.>Dumbbell Nan-Kilo Moteru?Cute girls going to the gym. Nothing else.
>>76928236Thanks
>>76922421More like half as bright and a quarter of the length in that case.
>>76922249>Itagaki's take on MusashiThat was when Baki died for me. Guy wrote himself into a corner he never got out from. He had to literally end the manga to kill off Musashi, then reboot with another main char.
>>76925804I saved pic rel a few years ago from a /sig/ thread, pretty kino stuff all around. My favourite is Rookies, it's about a teacher reforming a group of delinquents through baseball>>76928236To add to this list>Kengan Ashuramade by the same guys as Dumbbell Nan-Kilo Moteru, has a 3D netflix adaptation>MegaloboxAn anime about an underdog boxer, but with hydraulics for bigger punches>LeviusSet during the industrial revolution in England, main character loses his arm in war and becomes a boxer where everybody is enhanced through cybernetics. Similar to Megalobox. Also has a cute tomboy
>>76929001How did trigun win over baki?
>>76921021When i first saw baki I thought he was a lesbian
>>76921973No love for Ol Joe?
>>76929487It was the red coat. Damn that coat.
Mashle is /fit/, but it's also trash, but it's also fun.
>>76929001Thanks
>>76920962>MFW body goals
Any recs for anime about fat fucks losing weight?
>>76929001>great teacher onizukabased, i need a japanese schoolgirl to flash me her pussy
>>76931009there was some korean shit about this I think but dunno the name
>>76920962The manga or nothing
>>76931134>watch the whole subbed anime>read the manga now knowing wtf is actually being said because I don't know ping pong katana and the translation is trash>never watch that piece of shit ever againI'll do it one dayI'll read it instead of playing the whole thing on the background I'll totally seat and read the mongoose, bro. I swear.Some day.
>>76929519Joe's a much more compelling character with a better story.
>>76931124It's weird how South Korea is just Japan but boring
>>76920962kino though I stopped somewhere in season 2 or 3 where it's all just undeground tournament fights
>>76931327nah, c'mon mandid they not do that live action adaptation of Mercenaries Playground of Destruction for a while? c'monthat shit hit so hard it could split a nation into...at LEAST 3 or 4 parts.At least....It wasn't well received there at all.
>>76931313>The translation is trashAre you perhaps reading the wildfang translations
>>76931418I ditched before I found out about that recently, so maybe. The "put glass in mouth to avoid a knockout" was botched.The whole thing is just sumo paintings talking about how they feel (about being strong and what it means. about being a warrior and what it means. about style and aesthetics and what those mean.) and swinging. Without being able to get the subtle shit, the meat is at the "so this dude just swang a haymaker a little weird. Let's see what this Bengali ship captain says about that time he saw a man go to the North Pole to ice his balls while fighting killer whales to train. He also studied sharks and was a wrestling champ. The captain could tell because of his hip movement while walking. The man was strong. The Captian's name is Pumbolingo Tulili.We know the best fighters call themselves predator names. I mean look at heavyweight champion Mike Tyson. He...huh. As we know, sharks are apex predators.Ok, so, the Bengali told this guy at science school. Let's see what he says. He is Professor Adam Smithbergstinton. aha. mhm. Oh, evidently the mix of the cold training, being in constant danger and eating a carnivore diet could make a guy test boost so hard one could become a demi-god beastman of sorts. But he also thinks noone could handle that. Someone would really want to get stronger to do it. But come on. It ain't happening...unless?So the dude did that and this, mixed with his studies of sharks gave him an idea. What if he was a shark? What if the shark was really big? This realisation made him ditch wrestling forever, as it was useless against sharks. Then he threw fists for a year or so, as he imagined being bigger and became a Megalodon. He now is the sole face of Megalodon kempo. A new animal form opens a new year of progress for Chinese Martial arts. The man is Slovenian.We will not see this man again after this fight."If I can't read that what's the point?
Garouden by Itagaki is also a peak /fit/ read, it's like Baki, but more down to earth, meaning that the strongest guy in Garouden is like Doppo level. Ironically, everyone not being as much of a superhuman as in Baki but still having the same Baki warrior mindset while being more "realistic" makes them somehow look even more like psychopathic meathead douchebags
>>76922249MY GOAT
>>76921973man he used to be such a twink
>>76921973I concur
