Partly the story is true of taking a high amount of fructose when you are injured + a balanced amount of food was one of my old secrets of superhuman strenght when I was active in martial arts. All my higher level adversaries didn't expect that! Even my master was very surprized. An almost fatal accident stopped me. I recoverd after 4 years, and it changed my life drasticly.
You know I never noticed kaku's character development He went from a xenophobe that doesn't want to "hand" out the sea king title to anyone outside china to recognizing yujiro as a sea king, a Japanese
youre the only person ive seen react properly to the things that happen in baki. i feel like no one gets hype as fuck at the shit that goes down in this show!!
Yes this actually happened. Ali was doing an exhibition with a wrestler and dude decided to lay on the ground and Ali couldn’t get close enough to punch without getting tripped up and taken down.
23:20 I can confirm that when you put your forearm in a bench vice and tighten it a bit, you can't open your hand. think about the pressure a bench vise can exert. that is what yoh is saying
The thing I love about the scene with Yujiro and Samwan, is that it goes to show his speed. Samwans entire shtick was fast kicks. And yet Yujiro moved AFTER he was already in motion, and absolutely tanked him
man, Jr turned into a walking sandbag for almost everyone else but that's because he didn't need any other wins. He got to troll the strongest man alive.
have you read the manga, after this is the oliva prison arc, then the prehistoric Pickle arc, then the battle with Yujiro arc, then the Miyamoto Musashi arc, and right now they are wrapping up the Sukune Ancient Sumo arc
42:37 This image of Yujiro’s face here is fucking wild to me. Usually he has way more pronounced facial features that convey his status as a transhuman monstrosity, even when in a casual state. But his face here looks almost… normal, almost subdued. It’s honestly more unsettling than his usual craziness.
How was Ali jr afraid of Baki but not afraid of yujiro lol it made no sense. I get that he’s issue was that he was afraid of death so it held him back so that was written well but this seems inconsistent.
It's great seeing him make these predictions about what insane shit is next, but he doesn't even come close to "revived T-Rex hunting caveman" and "literally Musashi." I can never get over how ridiculous Baki is, and KoL's reactions are a perfect match for it. Can't wait to see him react to the next series.
