The biggest flaw of musashi is his tendency to play around and let the opponent use every technique on him. Even letting them hit him. When he could have easily defended or avoided them.
I think it's because he already knows he is a legend and nothing will change that . He just wants to experience how far this combat have gone . Or maybe the author just wanted to have longer fights . Cuz Musashi uses swords and if u get cut u are kinda done for . The fights be over in 1 second . And that's not really enjoyable to read .
you can tell when he lived his life he would just go for the kill and yes thats why he was always bored with one shotting people (kind of like one punch man so to speak), in this world he felt like he was able to learn what the new world had to offer and cut more and more to his hearts content. Being already a legend and someone who wanted that challenge he clearly was having fun playing around until he knew he had to play for real. Think of a pro soccer player playing with a bunch of non pros, he's obviously not going to go full out but if he was starting to lose/get challenged then of course he's going to play harder and win in the end
And even in his first encounter with Baki,Baki didn't caught him off guard or was quicker than him with that jab because Musashi later tells him that he saw it coming and could have blocked it, but he just let Baki hit him because he wanted to know the effect of that jab...
I think thats what he does in almost every fight, he can see the attack coming but chooses not to dodge or block it to see what it's like and what they'll do next.
Yea i would bet 2025 for à release. His sword techniques Will be hard to see animated and they know we hâte CGI so theh better work carefuly as long as it takes for one of the Best arcs
If Musashi was 100% serious at all times, he'd still be second in the verse, only below Yujiro. Also hope they animate Retsu's Isekai journey sometime in the future.
Musashi and Hanayama are my GOATS of Baki. Musashi is just cool af and Hanayama was secured as one of my favorites after he was like a W wingman and saved Baki and his gf from Speck.
And also his future sight is insane, like one the very strongest skills in the verse, allows him to react in advance to everything especially that he also one of the very fastest characters in the verse
Okay and even still baki could have easily killed musashi @15:02 if he truly wanted to kill him multiple times truout their final fight baki showed he could have easily killed him after knocking him out like what 3 times in this fight with the "and ker-stab"
@@deanjaloepurnellyou guys do understand that Musashi is not in his orginal body but a clone meaning he is not as strong as he was plus he doesn't kill as he wants to know impact and learn cause he was just so op in his era
Once this arc gets animated musashi is definitely going onto the table of black airforce energy bro violated everyone even dropped the main character 2 times
Musashi was like the fucking Devil, he never fought all out except for the last couple of seconds vs Yujiro but Motobe stopped that fight, which was both fortunate and sucked
My favourite character, my favourite arc (despite obvious let downs) and the two fights I wanted to see fully were stopped mid fight by some 3rd party shenanigans. Musashi's rampage with the police force was just pure fan service and I loved it so much. Also Musashi vs Yuujiro was the absolute first thing I ever saw from the Baki universe, in a video showing the scans of the chapter with music behind.. The artstyle hooked me instantly, especially Yuujiro and the way Itagaki draws bodies. I was mesmerized by the fight.
Baki getting hit in the nuts has to be the best scene in the Baki universe hands down! Musashi was undoubtably one of the strongest characters in this universe and his ending was done dirty, Baki plot hole armor activated
He’s the third strongest but once it comes to brute force and raw strength…. He has no chance he will get folded He received two punches from Hanayama and refused to take anymore of them
@@emmysmith7214 Hold up, you're right. That's my mistake, I forgot that raw strength always beats skill and experience in a fight (my bad). Hanayama is a beast (I grant you that) but as we've seen with Musashi, he toys with the present day fighters as he wants to learn what has changed in the years he's been gone. With that being said his skills easily takes every character (minus the ogre on the easy scale) in all fights. Also I don't care what anyone says, sword beats human flesh every... single...time... enough said
@@unfixedgears yeah sure you’re right about that…. And also Musashi has one will that none of them has the balls to admit and that’s the will to actually kill (a death match) all of the fighters claim to fight till death but don’t actually live up to that
I swear, bringing Miyamoto Musashi back to life and fight him is by far the most insane thing to happen in Baki yet. I really wouldn’t be surprised if they face off against aliens that wander the universe looking for worthy challenges. I really wouldn’t.
I hope Retsu gets revived the same way Musashi came to the modern age. He has more potential to explore. He effectively did better than Baki did which was a great showcase to his skills. Not only that, he showcased how he can still be formidable with a prosthetic leg. With his death, to me, signifies the series is nearing its end and no one is safe.
Death just may give RETSU another chance but will it be on the LIVING PLANE? Maybe Retsu becomes like a sort of guide or spirit entity for the group when times get rough or they are about the die.
Listen in Baki, i believe the highest level a fighter can reach is that imaginary style thing that Baki And Yujiro does, like Baki's Dinosaurs and Yujiro's fake imaginary meal... Musashi happens to actually be a master at that as well which tells me he is that high like number 2 or 3 for sure in the verse, the imaginary cuts and the imaginary swords and later that swordless style.... He is a monster
Its the power of visualization. So intensely and with such vivid imagination. Men are creators, we use our energy to create, to build, and to destroy, our imaginations are unlimited and the ways in which we can express how we think is vast. Theyre able to manifest their vision physically in the real word.
Musahi had NUMEROUS TIMES he could of easily (yes despite having the Demon Brain he was still easy work) killed Baki in their final fight BEFORE BAki had any chance to hurt Musashi. Mind you thats without using his REAL swords. Ridiculous at how OP Musahi truly was.
Musashi's weakness is that he's never serious. He plays around too much and takes hits that he could easily dodge just to get a feel for the opponent. If he was 100% serious all the time, trying to go for the kill right away, hes packing up the whole cast
@@chineseducksauce9085 He's already experienced death before after a long and fulfilling life, and he is basically invincible. I don't think he really cares if he wins, loses, or dies. He just wants to fight and dominate for the sheer joy of it.
Shout out to the Baki writer not wanting to have it be conclusive if a fight between one of the most legendary fighters in history, and his own OC’s, was won by either. The dude found a way to have legendary fights, without undermining his own characters, or a dude from history. Many other authors would have gone full fanfic.
It's funny, I once saw a complaint that Musashi was made useless by Sukune. But that is nonsense, for all respective purposes he was never defeated by anyone other than an over prepped Motobe. Even then, he was essentially put into hyper sleep. I am positive he will make an excellent antagonist in the distant chapters of the Baki Franchise.
Pull 'em back! He's OP! The only legitimate L this guy took was because he *chose* not to kill his opponent lmao WOW! Even Yujiro had to go for the gonads, and actually got rescued. That's mind blowing! Yujiro used Dress while his Demon Back was active against Baki, and Baki built a toy during the red out. Musashi cut his theme music early on while toying with him, and then an interventionist stopped the fight before he could get serious with our hero lmao Dude was getting his Kenpachi on, self sabotaging just for the thrill of having a challenge. Yeah, you can't have someone only Yuichiro can definitively beat running around right now. Just bring him back later. He's a menace.
Musashi is a killer. Seasoned and bred during the time of war where killing was seen as the norm. To him, there is no winning or losing in a fight and walking away afterwards. To him, winning or losing means you either live or die. He won't leave you in a crippled state or leave you heavily damaged the way baki and the other fighters do. His aim is to kill you if necessary if pushed to the edge to do that. If motobe hadn't stopped jack and yujiro, the results would've been way different. Or they could've ended up like retsu as well. Maybe not yujiro, but definitely jack.
People will try to make explanations but the creator obviously wanted Musashi to take 0 damage in almost every fight and never lose, which is rather boring if you read the arc knowing he will never lose or be challenged.
I like to think this is all traits his training for his father. Like strength(pickle) speed (musashi) Durability( probably the guy in haniyamas tattoo) And more
Why i never even saw this dude once And i just bench watched BAKI, Baki Hanma, Baki vs kengan. And now i am 8 episodes deep to Baki the Grappler and i never still seen this dude. The name just rings some bells.
U think that with baki rahen more of the old characters will come back? Rereading the series its insane how much build up and character people like Yuri, Guevera, Ali Jr. , Kaku etc had. Wouldn't it be so awesome to have maybe after the Jack arc a final tournament with all people from the past and present and Yujiro actually talking part cause now with guys like a trained Kaku, Baki, Jack, Musashi there he could actually get challenged. When i think about matchups like Guevera vs Kaku or Pickle vs Nomi man that could be so great and now that the strongest guys on earth are actually all taking part a definitive winner can be crowned. I would love to see Yuyiro having to sruggle to keep his title imgagin him having to fight Jack , Musashi and Backi in a row or hell let him insult the chinese and know he has to fight Katsumi and Kaku at once. I feel something like this could happen further down the line since the cast overall hast gotten so strong that sure Yujiro is still the king but the gap isn't as wide as it used to be also many of the other fighter have witnessed his power first hand multiple time and have been training to surpass him. Dunno i know this all sounds like a fanfic but i rly have the feeling that characters like Ali Jr. and Nomi have been introduced so they can appear later and way stronger to before so that there is an actual roster of people who could compete for the strongest title.
That sounds cool but yujiro gets stronger everyday without doing anything at speeds faster than any character (except maybe baki), so the gap between him and other characters is the same as it always was, maybe even wider. What characters need to focus on is improving technique rather than strength, but they just wont catch up to yujiro. I do think that musashi has the potential to do as good against yujiro as baki did and even better. That is granted he stops playing around all the time and goes 100% serious with the intent to kill and if he can perfect his two swords under heaven style
I would say more so he’s just testing them because he’s curious because I mean he did pretty good against Yujiro but at times seemed barely better than other way weaker fighters
That's just how it is for "strongest" characters, they don't really do much, because if they do, and don't win instantly their power would be weaker and harder to scale with new characters. Best they do is toy around with the characters and find them "interesting"
musashi had the biggest plot armor in baki series becuz he was japanese and a samurai so the author of the manga was biased towards him becuz samurai stuff is sacred in japan so he had to stay biased
Musashi's soul was only sealed...and his body was still very much whole that time he fought Baki for real and the body is only contained, Retsu's soul is literally in isekai state.
I want whatever Motobe was smoking that day. If the swing didnt cut him, it wouldn't have cutted Yuujiro. I like that this showed Pickle is not a fither like them, its a survivor. He has some sense of honor, but as an animal he will survive no matter what, he has no stupid pride to loose. Also yeah, Baki basically proved that he could have ended the fight, and then he left the fight to end on it's own.
Haha after reading vagabond its so jarring seeing how diffrent the art style of the faces are lol . Still love this manga its great motivation for lifting.
Bro you gave 0 respect for Retsu the most honorable man in Anime history who SAVED BAKI's fucking life for real! No moment of silence or nothing nor did you even have the decency to show the scene where everyone sees Retsu they're ride or die buddy gone and grasp the weight of the situation. Loved the video, I use this as a table of contents for the Musashi ark.
I'm prolly the only person who didn't like musashi 😭, but overall I really like the arc, it had a different tone yet similar to the pickle arc....motobe became one of my favorite Baki character
Masashi is a true killing machine Unstoppable this is like ghost of tsushima but with a true Beast monster God killing machine ready to kill everything on the planet Earth of creation and that will not stop in to order has been truly restored to the entire planet Earth island core this man is a true Unstoppable killing machine God who can't be killed
Was actually saving his life I think a motivate step in and take the slash you draw will probably died in that, but it seems like she asked about the whole bag to last take
youjiro's full demon back and hands in the pocket technique will 100% destroy musashi with one swing after musashi "cutting "him like 1000000000000 times .
