Grappler Baki + Martial Arts Manga

Rhio, thing is here.

I was like “What.” Since the things are actually biting the fork, I guess it has to be real? I don’t fucking know. Logic that out.

Baki v Pickle,

Pickle got DQed.

HSDK is hoooooot. Series is kinda dumb, but I like it anyway. One of my favorite weeklies. Also, I love the mangaka for suddenly adding tits.

Move aside Hanza Sky!

stumbled across this looking up some of the titles to those boxing mangas, very Shamo-ish feel, so be warned its not for the faint either

It’s really not very MA focused the boxing is just a sub-plot.

It’s an extremely good Manga and Anime for that matter though and you should all watch/read it.

On that note the Anime is a lot further along than the scanlation story wise.

Do you know how far the anime goes into the manga Shari?

reminds me a lot of shamo with the emphasis on the japanese juvenile detention system, and am interesting in seeing how it resolves

I was just teasing about Hanza Sky though :stuck_out_tongue:

Nah i was way off with Hanza i dropped that after a chapter or two.
Just the summary sounded good.

Well it is very similar to Shamo in the juvenile system but it’s far more brutal than Shamo ever was.
As it goes on it goes in an entirely different route though.

Dunno how closely or how far it follows the Anime as the majority of the manga is not even close to translated but the Anime has a pretty definitive ending to it.

The manga ended in the beginning of this year so they weren’t really worked under any constraints that would force them to makeup any new ending like the Gantz anime did but i am also fairly sure they just can’t fit as much in the Anime considering it’s only 26 episodes while the manga is 240’ish chapters. So there is probably some stuff left out.

I’d still watch the anime though rather than wait for all those chapters to be translated which might not even happen.

SOO raws of 236 and 237

which version of Baki do people like?

the one in grappler baki?

new grappler baki?

or son of ogre baki?

also about Rumina, the kid from SOO, anyone else think if Itagaki makes another series he might become a crazy ass fighter or something?

^I like the original baki the most, the NGB one pisses me off, and SoO Baki isn’t that much better but not bad either/

I don’t think Rumina would be of any consequence, he hasn’t really displayed any real desire to fight, nor the mentality the high end guys in Baki has, but who knows. I’m actually hoping for another series, but Ita is really dragging his feet here, and its also hurting his Scarface spin-off with Hanayama, because Scarface actually takes place 5 years AFTER Baki vs Yuujirou at the end of SoO, which is one of the reasons Baki hasn’t appeared in Scarface at all, and Yuujirou got a guest panel during some side arc.

Okay this isn’t really a MA manga. But it is definitely a MANga.

Yajima Kintaro used to be the charismatic leader of a biker gang. Then he retired to have a family. With his wife dead in childbirth, and all alone with a baby boy, Kintaro now embarks upon a new adventure - as the strangest salaryman in all of Japan.

You all need to watch this show.

Oh and don’t you dare drop it until atleast having seen the second episode.

I just got Fist of the North Star (Hokuto Mousou) for PS3 today.

Going to play it soon.

I should already be dead.

Meguru has been getting a whole bunch of updates lately and a new Minoru:

Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru 78 - Read Karate Shoukoushi Kohinata Minoru Chapter 78 Online - Page 1

@Endless: good shit man

@Shari yeah I saw Meguru updated earlier, kotonoha is really burning the midnight oil. its looking like Yudai may forfeit, so I wonder who meguru will have to fight if he wins this grapplefest in order to fight Takashi, but even then Meguru hasn’t shown anything that can counter that upper Takashi throws

Son of Ogre Baki seems a bit more…mellow IMO, but also dangerously reflecting his father more. OG Baki is the coolest though, definitely

and I figure Rumina would have some role is because of how Baki let him hang around ad maybe it gets the kid started to want to fight like the others

Baki barely fights. NGB he fought that one prisoner, Ali’s kid, some guy, and Kaku’s kid. Did he have a challenging match in that entire thing?

SOO threw him some matches, but they were matches that it didn’t make any sense for him to win.

honestly im still readin Baki because of Yujiro.

I see your point here really, there was NO FUCKING REASON FOR ALI JR. TO JOB!!! :mad:

That set such a bad taste in my mouth, NGB Baki was completely fucking lazy, a spoiled brat who wouldn’t fight for anything until he got poonani from Kozue. Then when she disappeared at the end of NGB he went back to the same ole shit. and for the fights he did have

Prisoners: Ok he got all souped up after the poonani volume, but still got scrubbed by Yanagi’s poison.

Ali Jr: …

Kaioh’s son: No excuse for him taking him out in two seconds, as renowned as his son was, and as hard a time as Yuujirou had with his father until using the Oni Muscles(and even then Kaku Kaioh still gave him shit) there was really no justified way he got ezmode there.

The only challenging match he had was against the poison master, and that was directly because of Yanagi’s poison in the first place.

SOO is more tolerable because he got the obvious fight with Oliva(would’ve had to happen at some point to measure himself against his father), though how he won that was moronic but whatever.

That put him in direct contention with his old man as far as I’m concerned, but then sure enough the series had to be dragged out so here comes Pickle. Pickle even spooks Yuujirou, trashes Retsu/Katsumi/Jack(which doesn’t make sense either especially after Jack getting the bone graft and newer steroids making him much stronger than Retsu/Katsumi but O.K.)

Ok so now Baki preps to fight Pickle, but can’t even make his aura appear, outright saying that Pickle is indeed stronger than Yuujirou. That fight occurs, Baki “wins”, and now we got the dragged out Retsu/Smokin fight(which btw had another drag out chapter which wasn’t even necessary) and the Baki/Chiharu incident(though it seems there was some kind of point for that which we should know whenever Sonikku translates the chapters)

so like stabby said some fights baki really should not have won in SoO, but at the very least he’s actually doing something, unlike NGB where he was basically cruise mode

though its also amazes me how Yuujirou, being the pre-set broken character of the series, has had the most balanced/interesting fights in each of the three series :confused:

Lol! That was such a dick speech by Yujiro. Well sorry, Mr. Ogre sir but not everybody can be born a broken mutant hellspawn freak like yourself.

Like people on here have said before, Yujiro is a far more interesting character than Baki.

^I would definitely like a Yuujirou gaiden series, as even though he’s the main antagonist, we still know very little about him, especially the post birth period before he started fighting in vietnam, I’d like to see just how he was raised if he was giving his mom orders ever since he was born(and it would be really interesting if she came back into the story somehow, especially for the final confrontation between Baki/Yuujirou, as she obviously knows what he’s become from her bit piece in Advent of Ogre

So wait pickle is considered stronger than Yujiro?

^Says Baki, because he can make Yuujirou’s fighting aura appear without any difficulty, but he couldn’t make Pickle’s appear, despite trying many times, leading him to declare that Pickle was the stronger person. Also, in the contest of strength when Pickle was confronted by several of the characters, remember he pushed Yuujirou back easily until forced off his feet.
