Okay given the ridiculousness of Baki grabbing a fly isn't that big a deal.
but the fact he tossed the fly off with damaging the wings is physics damning

Aren't the wings stronger than the body? It's been some time since I've examined a fly's anatomy.

Yeah, but imagine this.
Say someone grabbed you by the ankles.
Now imagine them tossing you with enough force to separate your legs from the rest of you body, but your legs were in perfect condition sans the gore from where they meet with your body.

Fair enough.


Anyway, we're 75% of the way through Kenjin's chapter 1. Look forward to it, or don't; your call.

sweet!

also, I don't get why they are repeating the musashi vs pickle thing, wasn't that already settled on the lab?

>wasn't that already settled on the lab?
Musashi thought it was, but only because he bailed. He bailed because Pickle wasn't treating him as an enemy - I recall him referring to Pickle as having the mind of an innocent child or something similar. Pickle now sees Musashi as a meal greater than the crocodile or T-Rex; meaning he'll now fight Musashi seriously, and with far greater strength than before. Pickle starts starving himself with the intent to eat Musashi, and Doppo points out to the cast that starvation makes you stronger in some cases.

Pickle is lame now and the whole thing is dragged out already.
Just kill him and memetobe so we can get on to better things.

fucking motobe why can't he just fuck off already

>wanting motobe to die
I bet you kiss girls too faggot

what is the latest translated chapter and where can i read it?

98, and on the SpinyBack site. Or you can wait like 2 days for the cleaner to put it on Batoto; I'm pretty sure he's going to do that. Or I can just post it. Whatever you prefer - I know some people are pissy about websites.

I just realized: Motobe acknowledged that he couldn't protect Pickle when he read about him in the paper earlier - presumably because of time factors. This time, he's not too late, and he's already prepped.

Are we gonna see Motobe pull shenanigans in the Pickle vs Musashi rematch? My body is ready

Is Memetobe going to fight Pickle in order to protect him from Musashi?

I wish he'd just die alone with Musashi,why are the faggots even taken serious considerign even a 16 year old Yuujiro was strong enough to defeat the fucking american army?In the few panels we saw of musashi fighting at Senjougahara he was actually struck by several arrows and injured,Itagaki is a hack.

>Is Memetobe going to fight Pickle in order to protect him from Musashi?
No, I'm pretty sure he's saying the fight between Pickle and Musashi is tomorrow. He'll be there, but we dunno what he's gonna do. Maybe the raws will give us some indicator.

>16 year old Yuujiro was strong enough to defeat the fucking american army
The implication is given that samurai/warriors of Musashi's era were far better soldiers than contemporary soldiers, because the latter can't really fight without their guns. Yuujiro only went unharmed in Vietnam because he never got shot, and he never got shot because he did things like hide in the ground until his targets were too close to get their shots off before he could strike them. If they were packing machetes, grenades or somesuch, chances are he'd have been repeatedly wounded as well.

16 year-old Musashi got injured at Sekigahara because every single soldier there was presumably Gaia-tier. I doubt 16 year-old Yuujiro would have gotten out of that (or an equivalent) unharmed as well. That aside, Musashi had a different lifestyle and presumably strength progression than Yuujiro. In pic related, the narrator recounts the tale of the Yoshioka versus Musashi. He destroys all of them, as the story goes, and is clearly unharmed on the next page. Musashi was 19 or 20 when he fought the Yoshioka.

Next page of which I spoke.

>The implication is given that samurai/warriors of Musashi's era were far better soldiers than contemporary soldiers

I'm pretty sure a modern soldier armed with a rifle or submachine gun would have no problem whatsoever beating one of those samurai.

>Yuujiro only went unharmed in Vietnam because he never got shot, and he never got shot because he did things like hide in the ground until his targets were too close to get their shots off before he could strike them

While that is correct,wasn't Yuujiro also shown casuallydodging bullets?I mean the top-tier baki fighters can punch at hypersonic speeds.

>16 year-old Musashi got injured at Sekigahara because every single soldier there was presumably Gaia-tie

While those samurai may have been better trained in physical combat thanmodern soldier saying they're all Gaia-tier is a massive stretch,Witht he expection of a few spcial individuals the Baki world is stillpretty much the same as our own so there's no real reason to believe those samurai were that much stronger while Gaia clearly has superhuman feats.

>could control the adrenaline in his body
>could jump over a lake
>break a tree with a single punch
>use normal leaves as knives
>defeat Sikorski who had superhuman strength in his own right

>with a rifle or submachine gun
This is the root of the argument. Yuujiro and Gaia target soldiers before they ready their weapons, and unarmed gunners are ezpz (supposedly) compared to unarmed samurai.
And nobody dodges bullets; they move before the bullet has been shot. They're dodging muzzles.

Shit, does that mean Pickle is gunna lose? Fuck.

Well, maybe we'll be surprised ...

Where can I read chapters 171-180 of the first series?

>And nobody dodges bullets

The AK-47 bullet travels at a speed of around 715m/s,that slightsly above mach 2,even Katsumi during thetournament was capable of punching faster than mach 1,and if i remember correctly some autist calculated Yuujiro at being at least mach 8.

>autists running calculators
That's an error many people do with fiction, and it's more common in manga since mangaka love to exaggerate and aren't very knoledgeable.
Always go by narrative. Only Katsumi's speed counts because it bears a lot of narrative weight. It's "The Mach Punch" because it's the only time anyone ever reached that speed, or else there wouldn't have been an arc about it.
And that punch required a top tier genius fully using the core techniques of very old martial arts. Yuujiro isn't breaking Mach with his punches, but let's be generous and say he reaches 90% of that.
Still, a punch is one of the fastest ways you can move a part of your body. Dodging requires way more speed.
And the concept of reading your opponent's moves is so widespread in the East that they wouldn't even bother to try to be that fast only for evading, when a more efficient way exists.

>even Katsumi during thetournament was capable of punching faster than mach 1
And did anybody ever dodge those punches? There's no correlation between your top movement speed and your reaction speed, if anything the former should be higher.

>wasn't Yuujiro also shown casually dodging bullets?
No. Maybe in the anime; I don't remember, but no. We see gunners *missing* him, but he never dodges a bullet. The whole war, he's just stopping people from using guns and then hitting them.

>While those samurai may have been better trained in physical combat than modern soldiers...
Musashi is as strong as he is for a reason: he had to be fighting people comparable in strength. Maybe not directly on-par, but within the general vicinity. So let's conservatively say that his strongest opponents were around Baki's level pre-Musashi training. That leaves a lot of room for tons of fighters to be below that, yet still remain as technical threats, especially en masse. Warriors were more common back then, so chances are that there was an equal proportion but greater amount of 'decent' fighters.

One potential alternative outcome: Pickle wins and tries to go for Musashi; Motobe smacks him with [arbitrary weapon], says that killing Musashi is *his* duty.

>It's "The Mach Punch" because it's the only time anyone ever reached that speed, or else there wouldn't have been an arc about it.
Not him, but you're mixing things up. During the Maximum Tournament, Katsumi had sonic (Mach 1) punches which used all his joints. In the Pickle arc, he achieved supersonic punches by imagining he had a shitton of joints.

I haven't even watched the anime. I just remember they called the Pickle punch that.

> It's "The Mach Punch" because it's the only time anyone ever reached that speed, or else there wouldn't have been an arc about it.

Didn't Baki also manage to copy that technique and use it on Jack?I'm talking about Katsumi during the first Grapler Baki series,the punches that he has thrown at Pickle breaking his hand on him were even faster than that.

Even so, it's irrelevant. Nobody dodges those punches in the manga. They either block it, or tank it at worst.

...

Did the mangaka learn anatomy yet?

Honestly, is there any counter to the imagination Mach punch that isn't being in-fucking-vincible? It's kinda sad the only person top level Katsumi fought was the one who couldn't be harmed by it.

>Musashi vs Pickle
>Musashi vs Motobe
>Musashi vs Baki
Do you expect anything else to happen before the end of the arc?

I'd hope to see Kaku try getting revenge for Retsu.

Seems kinda pointless, his whole shtick was shiaori, which Retsu already tried and failed.

Same. If Musashi exploded from a Kaku punch after getting smacked around by Motobe, I'd be able to say that Baki Dou was a complete success.

Is there any chance of Haneyama being bullshitted back into the story eventually? Motobe being a ninja god came out of fucking nowhere, after all

Retsu was nowhere near as good at it as Kaku is. Retsu never used offensive Xiao-Lee, as far as I can recall. He just used the spins to avoid getting cut. Kaku can spin and then punch Musashi once for a kill.

It didn't really come out of nowhere,he used the same ninja bullshit to beat Yanagigi.

I can't imagine how a fight between him and Musashi would go, I don't see him tanking slashes Musashi's slashes, but Musashi no selling his grip would also be bullshit.

Musashi would just cut him a bit, be amazed at YAMATO DAMASHII endurance and cut him some more. No can do.

Haneyama's gotta learn some new shit if he wants to keep up

Fucker is gonna get memed.

Is Musashi vs Pickle gonna be a main event, or no general public like the previous Pickle fights?

Well they illegally captured Pickle, and the private even freaked out about the last murder that Musashi did, so presumably no audience. Still should be a major fight, though.

I'd be into a Hanayama vs Oliva fight desu

When are we going to get another anime adaptation?

Tomorrow.

probably never, but I feel like it could get some attention if it was remade. It kinda occupies the same niche as JoJo - hilariously over-muscled dudes making weird poses as they fight and treat objectively silly things with the utmost sincerity.

Are you ready for the tumblr shipping of Baki with everybody? Moe-yama? Good Dad Yujiro?

>Good Dad Yujiro?
Never.

Ever.

>probably never
Isn't it relatively popular, though?

Another season of the anime would be the only real way to get attention - there's pretty much 0 chance of ever getting a full physical release in the US. Baki is decently popular in Japan, so it's always possible that we'll get another anime. I think it's more dependent on Itagaki's will than any other factor, though. How about we all find Itagaki's email and harass the shit out of him for it?
