He loved her too much.
No seriously that's the explanation, he loved her so much that he bear hugged her to death.


So much love.
A killing love.

He respected her because he loved her.

She wandered into the realm of his warrior code.

For that she had to die.

I started reading through this and discovered what's available for the first series is only like 100 or so chapters out of god knows how many...drat.

Guess off to New Baki I go. :sigh: At least that and Son of Ogre look complete.

I have no idea whether this is serious or not because of how ridiculous this manga is. I figured it was because he wanted Baki to be stronger or something, but too hard of a bear hug is even dumber.

Watch the anime it covers the entire first series

It should be the thread title or in the op or something

I'm a bit disappointed that Baki (huge spoilers for the new manga) went down so easily to Musashi. I guess it's character growth that he didn't flip out or something, but I'm so used to this series loving with your expectations when you think a fight is over. This time it actually was over.

At the pace at this manga goes I might have to take a break for a year or two and then pick it up again. It's Bleach-like in terms of pacing.

ahh musashi looks like he's always on a hair trigger. It's kinda exciting. He's been name dropped for a long time in the series. Now its time for insane pseudo martial arts stuff!

A Big Thing about being the baddest of the bad rear end martial artists is being able to grit your teeth with shattering force. So yes, face-abs can totally be a thing.

Baki pseudo-scientific babble is the best pseudo-scientific babble.

Just read the new series and I am supressing the urge to yawn. Seriously, I don't see how a this can turn out well if it's still going to be centered on Baki and Yujiro and whatever bullshit challenger they can cook up. On the other hand I'd love to see more focus on the side characters (Hajime no Retsu??)

Retsu is one of the author's favorite characters. He had his own boxing side-arc in the last series. Also, he fights Musashi at some point, might be his first major opponent. I read this in a comment somewhere.

The retsu fight with that bald dude who kept feigning surrender and trying to recruit him as a teacher for his dojo was awesome.

If there were any then Sikorsky was part of them. Complete waste of what could have been an interesting gimmick on a handful of curbstomp fights.

All I remember about Sikorsky's fights was that everyone kept hammering him in the dick. Speck's was the best, though--it went just long enough to be fulfilling but not so long as Dorian which just kept going forever and ever.

New Baki Dou up on spinybackmanga.

I have to say my favorite fight has to be Baki vs Oliva. The pacman-attack, then them just slugging it out, plus the whole prison arc before the actual fight.

Plus there was this great scene.

It's a thing in manga to not show dicks, even to the extent of just making them invisible.

It's mondo hosed up that even in hentai the penises now are completely censored, making them mosaic or lightsaber like instead of just putting tiny black bars on the tip like they did back in the day.
