Baki is CRAZIER than JoJo's Bizarre Adventure

[@GloriousSquizoKing.]

Honestly, JoJo can get away with all the weird shit that happens because of the Stands, Baki on the other hand, doesn't have a explanation at all for the weird shit, and i love that.

[@greentomato1993]

That true

[@erenjaegersrightbicep63]

The hilarious part is that Itagaki sometimes adds pages worth of explanation actually based off of Science lol, but obviously the concepts are stretched far beyond the realm of reality

[@GG256_]

Love them both, but JoJo is bizarre for the sake of it; to me the most "bizarre" part of JoJo are the stylistic and aesthetic choices like clothing, hair, color palettes, and plot devices. Baki uses absurdist masculinity in the chaddest way possible as to drive the narrative and character motivations to a very entertaining effect. While I'd call JoJo "weird" (in a good way) I call Baki absurd. (In a good way.) Edit: Not trying to correct you or be contrary, it's just an observation.

[@MrGlasses94]

My favorite fight was Hanayama vs Speck and like throughout the fight they hype up speck being unstoppable by almost destroying the statue of liberty and murdering security guards meant to take really serious damage but Hanayama is built differently that his punch nearly takes out speck and the fight is amazing

[@markthetopfabricator6047]

Baki, Kengan Ashura/Omega and Record of Ragnarok are the trinity of hype battle anime/manga series so much god damn fun.

[@TheTriangle444]

Prisoners intro were the absolute and hypest shit you could imagine. Laughed my ass off when that guy who apparently knew the "Vacuum Fist" blew someone's brains out literally out of their ears

[@avatarmanz]

I LOVE Baki. You guys forgot to mention the part in earlier Baki when Yujiro stops an earthquake by punching the ground.

[@JackgarPrime]

I still think it's funnier to look at that scene as Yujiro just being very accurate in predicting when the quake would end and using that to fuck with people's heads.

[@Angelic-Tiger]

My favorite character is Jack hanma I just love that he was 6' 4 decided he wanted to be taller and became 8 feet tall. The man ate a whole steak in one bite, bit through a hunk of wood like it was a block of cheese, chewed a nail yeah like gum and beat the brakes off Muhammad Ali jr. And in the manga hes invented a new martial art revolved around a biting.

[@mydrillasanjay5397]

The part where he chews the nail always goes through me

[@justadude2377]

The fact he eats bones like Biscuits is so funny to me.

I like that Baki pretends that it's not in on the joke and they showcase every insane thing with a straight face.

[@morganmiller41]

The Baki fandom is weirdly inactive even though its popular. Barely any memes, fanfics, or fanart. Little rule 34 even of the female characters. I only found one doujinshi. The fandom mostly does discussions and mostly on KZbin and Reddit. My only guess is from what I've seen Baki is a show where the biggest fans complain about it the most. The positive discussions are about the fights and the wackiness. A lot of fans want a better written story and character development, especially after the Musashi arc. Most Baki fans lean more towards manga as well. After season one part 1 of the Netflix anime came out a lot of watchers speed through the manga so we watch the new episodes without the massive hype online. This, lack of merch, and its divergence from a more traditional anime style( Big muscles are not that common in anime ) play into how such a popular series has so little fan works. the most fan works are Baki animators who animate scenes from the Pickle and Musashi arcs. My favorite is Japar10 I highly recommend them.

[@razorhazer2755]

Probably cuz most of the fans are in the gym 💀

[@cuklyxd9031]

1:00 …. Baki says multiple times around the series that his goal isnt become the strongest being in the planet, he just wanna be stronger that his father, in his words: “if my father was the weaker being on the planet, i wouldnt bother be the second weaker”

[@video83046]

The manga books are on a whole different level and very well drawn And there are some fighting philosophy that are on point. If you ever thrown a strong punch you might notice that there is really a mini second where your mind kind of has to reboot after and you are slightly unconscious which is a moment that baki capitalized on because he is so incredibly fast

[@Koefficient]

I agree with this 100%

[@SHOGUNTAHIRI]

The Power of Imagination

[@bruh......2005]

The strongest power in Baki

[@sirgallant5000]

What also makes Baki really stand out is, despite all of this it is NOT supernatural. Those monsters are people, it's all flesh blood and bone. No one has powers or magic. Yet they feel like they would just tear through most of the shonen universes without breaking a sweat, they're such beasts. It's like everyone is a mix of Guts and Kenshiro, but also having a really great time. I think the best way to explain it is it's a world where there are NO limits to what can be achieved with training your body and mind.

[@LL-oq5sf]

"it's like everyone is a mic of guts and kenshiro, but also HAVING A G R E A T T I M E" ......yeah great time... (Guts theme intensifies)

That time Baki trained with a Troll Bigfoot

[@kaldogorath]

Connor should watch the first parts of Baki. One of my favorite crazy things is when Baki goes to fight Yujiro the first time. A massive earthquake starts happening and everyone gets super scared. Yujiro isn't having it though so he punches the Earth to stop the earthquake.

[@HittingBandy]

If I remember correctly, it's not exactly sand turning into diamond, it's that Obama gave Yujiro a single piece of coal and went "Can you turn that into diamond?" Yujiro proceeds to tap the table and the table just splits in half. Ironically, another character actually does this, turning coal into an actual piece of diamond. Also, at 7:48, this is the first chapter of the next season right after Baki vs Yujiro rematch. The fight was so amazing and spectacular, that every fighter that saw it began to train till they are at their peak (even when some of these guys are past their prime or already at their peak), with Hanayama being the smart mf in the group, realizing that he is already at his peak, and essentially gave up. He then got bored and the scene follows from there.

[@godFilo]

Baki finally gets some appreciation

[@mystickev194]

5:49 the heart of baki meme culture is basically just SA, if you understand spanish the memes that are over there are pure gold

[@VoidHxnter]

The best part about this show is that it it has dragon ball levels of power scaling in such a short amount of time. From merely building level to *continental.*

[@someguy4405]

Who’s continental? The highest you can possible scale are the earthquake and the nuke, both of those are somewhat tenuous and neither are more than city level.

[@TheoneandonlyBeisola]

​@@someguy4405Yeah

[@justinokraski3796]

I like to think all of Baki’s absurdities are just the idle daydreams of Baki sitting in school, half listening to various things the teacher is telling the class

[@TheGosgosh]

Easiest way to describe Baki: A boy wants to be stronger than his dad and beat him, but his dad is the strongest fighter on earth.

[@Dabiggestmobster]

baki drinks sugar water whisked by a strong man with his 4000 year old chinese fingers with the 4000 year old martial art

Ok, I was never too sure about Baki because, as Joey said, the artstyle is just too weird at times. But then Calli mentioned she really likes it which confused me because I thought it's just a typical fighting anime. Now I understand, and I shall watch it

[@beaniebrain]

The plot of Baki is literally a really long tournament arc that’s building up to Baki vs Yujiro because Baki wants revenge.

[@somekidnamedqai]

Baki basically looks at muscles and goes bat-shit crazy with it. It’s one of my favourite shows so far and it is so ridiculous that I love it.

[@HardTourVela]

5:47 In latin america we have this meme around baki, "tu no mete cabra saramambiche", is the name of a song that started being used on videos showing baki fights or scenes, according to a site, "tu no mete cabra" can be interpreted as "you're not scary" and "saramambiche" is just bad pronunciation for SOB.

eyepatch wolf made an great observation about baki characters. like yes the proportions of their bodies are insane. but the anatomy itself with muscle and stuff is super detailed and true

[@youngthinker1]

Baki's grandpa is crazy, too. His best know technique, clothing, involves grabbing his opponent and throwing him around so fast, he looks like clothing on him. About the worse part, is the author throws in the towel after the original climax. The story lacks any sense.

[@gurnoorsekhon6402]

I don't feel like it's needs any sense. Like, except for the ending, I liked everything in these swordsman arc. It's not a very serious story it's all about fun.

@@gurnoorsekhon6402 I agree, however the author, I believe, said he was done after the fight between Baki and his father. The new stories mess around with establish power levels and throw the same characters under the bus. That is, Japanese never lose, American and Chinese lose to prop up the new enemy.

[@gurnoorsekhon6402]

@@youngthinker1 Baki was always quite biased towards japan. It's not something new. But to be honest, excluding the hanmas, there is only one character who is Japanese and has defeated all others (I haven't read the latest book) which is Musashi Miyamoto who is around Yujiro level. All other characters are quite relative to each other.

What i love about Baki is that it takes itself a little seriously even though its so ridiculous. Like they'll have a guy do some ridiculous shit like punch past the speed of sound or have a 146 year old 5 foot man be able to fight Yujiro Hanma because of their martial arts training.
