SCREW THE OAV!
WATCH THE TV SERIES!
GRAPPLER BAKI OWNZ YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have watched A LOT of that series and it's arguably one of the best shonen fighting anime...EVER! It isn't about kickboxing...it's about martial arts in general. Baki knows like several martial arts he just looks like a Thai kickboxer.
I know quite a bit about the story from what I have seen...if you got a question I could maybe answer it.
Eoohoo... man. If the OAV and TV series had you satisfied, you should check out the original manga. None of the animes can even compare with the crazyness in it. I'm going to scan a few pages in the future for the "Appetizer" section, but maybe I can do som earlier, if anyone wants to see it.
I only have a few pages in my posession, but that series is seriously wacked out.
There was one scene where a guy holding a handgun was face to face with a ghastly huge muscular bald guy named "Speck". The guy with the handgun is totally scared out of his mind, and he thinks to himself "even a machinegun can't kill this guy!!!" -- W-T-F!?
And it gets even weirder, as the bald guy tells the handgun guy that he has no chance, and to prove it, he takes the handgun, and shoots himself across his own cheeks point blank, smoke puffing out of his mouth. -- W-T-F x 2 !?
That's Baki for you.

"WTF!?" Is the correct statement Professor quite right you are. Like I remember an episode where Yujirou Hanma fights a guy with his index finger and nothing else. The guy would kick and the would repel the attack with his finger. The guy would punch...same thing. Then Yujirou get's tired and flicks him on the head and knocks the man back several feet and the man is out like a light.
Or how about that Doctor guy who can jam his fist into your chest and jumpstart your heart like he did with Doppo.
Seriously...some of the guys in Grappler Baki make a lot of the guys in street fighter look like girl scouts.
Oh and please post up some of those scans...it'd like to see them for my only experience with Grappler Baki has been the Anime.
Oh btw...have you heard any news about the manga "Souten no ken"? I remember reading an article posted here at MMcafe about it and that got me excited.
Any way on a scale of 1-10 and ten the best hwo do you rate the Manga? The Anime for me is a solid 9...but from what you are saying the manga must be a freak'n 11! lol.
