It's from Grappler Baki, when Jack's mother is introduced.

Yeah,

Not going to lie, this arc has been pretty underwhelming for me. The series has been kind of spinning its wheels ever since Baki fought Yujiro

Yeah, I think a bit of it has to do with all the superior japanese culture wankery going on. Musashi wasn't really that entertaining, mostly annoying. The sumo fighters lack character and I actually like and follow sumo so I don't know what he's going for here.

I liked the musashi arc, it was bloody and weird. The conclusion was just :psyduck: though

Where did that supersumo-guy go though? The one who crushed Oliva? That was the only interesting sumo guy

apparently he's fighting on baki's team for some reason? so they're not even set to fight him just yet

that being said loving lmfao that the black brazilian fighter is a guy who has a dozen kids and has to hunt jaguars to feed them and tokugawa's explanation for his strength was that the slaves that survived the triangle trade had the stronger genetic stock which is why he has eugenics power

And that his only weakness is getting kicked in the dick repeatedly until he bleeds profusely.

We're only calling that weaksauce because we have insane loving supermen like Hanayama in this cast who can just shrug off things like getting half their face blown off like it ain't poo poo

Retsu is 100% taking over, the only question is whether he kills the sumo or not

Now listen here Jack, there's this guy I know called Ogre Hanma and he's the strongest man in the world and you know what is the first thing I did when I met him? I shook my hand and recited the non-agression pact that we have with him. Because both of us take no malarkey, and that's compromise.

Who is everyone's favourite criminal of the 5 because it's Sikorsky for me

Yeah for me it's definitely a tossup between Speck because he shot himself in the face to intimidate someone, and Dorian because... well, Dorian. Vomiting up a grenade.

Speck because of the scene where he displays his power by overflowing a urinal with firehose piss.

I know were not supposed to base it on losing fights but Sirkorsky got the best beat downs of the arc

a powerful piss stream/overflowing piss is one of my favorite indications of strength in itagaki manga

Then Speck.

Speck is my favourite for the gun trick, for the dismembered hand trick introducing him to Baki, using a jail cell as a hotel room, and that loving ridiculous fight with Hanayama.

Yeah the great tatsumi is the superior Inoki character. The Sakura fight might be my favorite in any itagaki manga, which I guess would make it my favorite fight in a manga in general

Doyle owned hard. Then I think after that I liked Sikorsky just because it was funny seeing him get chumped over and over by the Hanma family.

Didn't care for the poison hand guy. Yujiro blasting him was fantastic.
