>Stopping an earthquake with a punch

Yeah....

>shitty anime adaption
It's getting two more. Shut up.

Any new info on the upcoming tv series? It was supposed to be officially announced today.

It says that it's starting the Convict fights on TV. Repeatedly mentions the convicts, but does not clarify when the adaptation ends. Not quite sure what to make of it; it doesn't say much. There's more info on the OAD release than there is here.

I'm working on TLing 136, so keep the thread alive, please.

>pink shirt
for what reason?
Is it going to say badman on the back?

Postboy

The same shit Guts did.

Whoops. Text of the last page, and now this one, together:

Thank you user, you're doing God's work.

Also, why is Musashi so autistic? He's really bad at interviews too.

kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

I remember this nigga cutting people up in baki dou havent read it in a while does some punch another earthquake

An ad for volume 14. I dunno what the fuck was supposed to be on this page, but Belazael ate it, too.

nice scans

And, finally, our character of the week!
Kaiser Permanente, Retsu's boxing manager.

End chapter.

literally murdered a guy? geez, 'sashi

No, it's 'air murder' akin to Y&B's 'air supper'.

>It would determine Musashi's fate.
I really don't know how this will work. Where can the plot go now other than Baki getting a rematch?

New historical figures who've been in hiding or something? Reclusive new enemies? Yuuichiro reappearing? More dumb fuckin air-related concepts? Just the Adventures of Musashi? Anything can happen.

bump

Strong is beautiful

>It says that it's starting the Convict fights on TV
Why?
Seriously why?
Why not just start back at the beginning?
The anime aired like 20 fucking years ago. Even ignoring the west (who is going to be super fucking confused with this shit) there are probably dozens of people in Japan confused by this as well and new watchers going 'what? What's going on, who is this?'
Also the animation of the first series was hot speedline garbage and needs an update anyway

Because it's when it gets good.

Also, there really isn't much to get confused about.
>Baki is an underground fighting champion
>the other guys are his friends he fought in the tournament
>his dad is an asshole
You can infer it all from with no trouble. The only confusing part is guys like Jack and Memetobe reappering out of nowhere near the end, but that's easily fixed having a couple of new scenes to establish them early on.

>Seriously why?
It's more-or-less the most popular part of the entire franchise. The show is part of the 25th anniversary of Baki, so it stands to reason that they'd animate the most popular arc. What doesn't stand to reason is that they would do it twice - once for the OAD, and once for television. Maybe the OAD will have some uncensored stuff that will be censored on TV...? I dunno. Week or so to find out.

No Musashi, No!

where can i find everything past 127 m8?

uhh either I did it and it's on desuarchive or I didn't do it and don't remember why
TLs only, not scanlation, cus cancer raws and unfair redraws

please, do tell if you look and find that I missed something after 127, though

I think I actually scanlated 131, cus it had actual raws for it


On another note, "the" Motobe fight starts in the next Grappler chapter, which should be out tomorrow-ish, I think. We released the one prior yesterday.

ah cool, i just caught up a Motobe has really won me over after that fight with Jack

For the life of me I can't find the special chapter featuring the story of Yujiro's birth

The yujiro vs baki match inspired new and old martial artists around the globe.
New tournament.

viewable scans

>special chapter featuring the story of Yujiro's birth
?
You mean the one with Yuujiro's mother?

No, it was all about Yujiro being born and being an evil babby

Why does such a great series get such shit treatment in terms of scans/raws etc,

Such a sad fate.

>tfw can't even find english translated scans of the maximum tournament arc

>finish all the translated grappler baki chapters I can find
>recommended to watch the anime to bridge the gap between GB and NGB
>the anime is so bad it's unwatchable and the subs are literally just the english dub transcribed
>not touched anything related to the series in months

should I just say fuck trying to bridge the gap and go straight to new grappler baki or not? I really loved reading it

Yeah, just skip it for now, it's not like Baki is has any kind of important story

I remember a few pages being about that, but not a 'special chapter'. Sure you're not mis-remembering part of the last fight?

The english dub is better anyway. Also the maximum tournament arc is really important and it introduces alot of characters that are important throughout the rest of the series.

I'd say just watch the 2nd season
Too bad it doesn't even get through the final fight of the fucking arc

They don't exist yet, unless you're WFP. And if you're WFP, you're scum for not sharing.

Either way, they don't redraw, so their scanlations are just translations.

>Too bad it doesn't even get through the final fight of the fucking arc
What do you mean? It does the same Jack fight. Are you talking about the weird, totally random anime-original Vietnam stuff at the end of the second season?

I thought it was a special chapter, but I still can't find it at all

It's chapter 282.
bato.to/reader#2384c6728d2dc63c

We should probably redo this chapter, but that would require me to do a lot of redrawing shit, and would require a retranslation. Maybe someday.

No that's not it. it was a full chapter detailing it and had his mother and how he left tiny babby bruises on her tit from grabbing her when he was breatfed for the first time

274.

Also world leaders around the globe had a bad feeling and started making nuclear weapons.

I recently reread the series on kissmanga, it didn't have it either. But I remember one of the volume indexes listed it as a special chapter. It was somewhere after the Oliva fight.

We'll have the Motobe vs Sumo Grappler chapter (pt 1) out soon, but if I put this one out soon, please feel free to come to my place and shoot me twice in the head.

they're trying

Bump

What did yujiro mean by Jack's blood being impure? Is it all the drugs he takes? Doesn't this guy realize brute strength is completely outclassed by martial arts?

>Is it all the drugs he takes?
90% chance that's exactly what he meant; but remind me when he says that, so I can check. And if you're gonna say it's in the anime, tell me which fight.

>Even ignoring the west (who is going to be super fucking confused with this shit)
Who the fuck cares?

> there are probably dozens of people in Japan confused by this as well and new watchers going 'what? What's going on, who is this?'

Baki is one of the best selling manga ever you retarded fuck, everyone knows what Baki is, it's literally a mememanga like JoJo.

Nah I'm pretty sure it was in baki son of ogre. Don't remember the exact point but yujiro was talking with either strydum or tokugawa

>it's literally a mememanga like [censored]
don't ever repeat something like that again
I mean it

>What did yujiro mean by Jack's blood being impure?
Yujiro was letting Jack know that he isn't the main character.

>Doesn't this guy realize brute strength is completely outclassed by martial arts?
Who Jack? He didn't really have a choice since his training regimen was going to kill him within a year if he didn't start taking drugs.

BAKI IS A FUCKING MEME MANGA JUST LIKE JOJO
SARARIMAN IN THE STREETS QUOTES BAKI AND JOJO
WHATCHU GONNA DO ABOUT IT BIG BOY

>his training regimen was going to kill him within a year if he didn't start taking drugs
his training regimen was the problem

Baki never spent 16 hours a day working out, and he reached Yuujiro - Jack was simply uneducated with regards to fitness/fighting. Remember, Yuujiro spent time teaching young Baki how to do shit. He never did anything of the sort for Jack.

Jack only fights for revenge and not for pleasure.
I think he will awaken his hanma blood soon but when he does he'll die, hopefully by yujiro's hands.

yujiro vs jack could be a good post-musashi arc if it's about jack getting murdered and failing to make ogre break a sweat

Visually-speaking, Baki is normie repellent, so the base probably isn't as big as it could be

why do you hate jack so much
he's an okay guy
morally, he means well
he's probably the most 'moral' fighter, given that he doesn't really enjoy it

I honestly forget that Jack is a decent guy when not rendered mentally ill by steroids.

Wasn't his introduction in Baki-dou him feeding the fishes with Tokugawa?

It was this, then the fish-feeding.

Actually, the idea of Jack caring for lots of pets sounds really cute
god knows Baki doesn't particularly care about Musashi (the dog) anymore; if he's even still alive
