End of chapter, anyway.
>>144016569
the fact that pickle picked up the sword means that he is going to lose
>>144016569
>pickle picking up a weapon
I bet this is going to make him lose since he does not know how to use it.
>>144016452

Are you stupid?
Reading for you must be a bore.
>>144016569
ITS EVOLUTION BABY
>>144016621
Just use your hip and you´re covered.
SWORDMAN NOT SO TOUGH AFTER GETTING SLAPPED BY CAVEMAN
>>144016517
Well, we can all dream, of course. We have no idea how long it is yet, so I'm gonna keep my hopes up like you and assume it'll be 60 minutes, but I'd honestly prefer Yuujiro vs Kaku. The Yuujiro vs Baki fight requires way too much context to be effectively represented in 60 minutes, methinks. The Kaku fight also better represents the "martial arts and pure physical force are equally powerful" concept that Baki tends to identify with.
If they do the OAD with Hellsing Ultimate quality, though... mmm.
>>144016621
he knows how a velociraptor works
it's basically just swinging a velociraptor around for himI would rather kill myself at this point than keep redrawing this crap
>>144016749
Which baki is this from? Only read baki dou and baki son of a ogre.
>>144016647
Or you just haven't read enough manga with the "guy picks up fallen persons weapon and moves in for the kill"-premise.
Besides, the Baki manga has already talked several times about the concept of taking up arms/techniques against a stronger character, so it's probably not a coincidence.
>>144016749
While that's true they are making this OAD to celebrate Baki's 25th aniversary sowhat could be more fitting than animating rthe fight that has been hyped up since near the start of the series?
Plot has never been Baki's strong point and they'll probably assume that most people that are buying the volume with the OAD are already manga readers.
>>144016938
New Grappler Baki.
>>144016942
>against a stronger character
But Pickle is the stronger one here.
>>144017007
Ok ty .
>>144016938
New Grappler Baki.
Before the Muhammad Ali Jr. arc.
>>144016938
It's from New Grappler Baki, which is generally regarded as the pinnacle of the series (except for Ali Jr). Are you the guy who I had to break the news to about that like 2 threads ago? Just go back and read New Grappler, it's amazing. Kaku a best.
>>144016942
Beyond any of that, Pickle fully intends to kill and eat Musashi. He had to have picked up the sword for a *reason*, you know? Maybe he'll cut him up like a nicely steamed carrot.
>>144017049
No, different anon.>>144017036
>>144017049
Thk for info.
Lately Baki threads have died pretty fast,hopefully after Musashi vs Pickles will go straight to Memetobe vs Musashi,,at least then the threads will be kept alive purely by the force of memes and funposting.
Good chapter but uh... literally half the pages convey the exact same information.
Pickle not getting halved, and people reacting. Annoyingly decompressed.
>>144017536
What? This chapter is fun as fuck. I think you all just underappreciate how funny this fight may become. Pickle might even win, you never know anymore.
>>144017774
Look again. Pickle forces all of his muscles outward a la Yuujiro in order to stop the sword, which is what we see progressed from here >>144016226 to here >>144016339
While I do understand what you mean - in context of the first few pages being literal recaps of what happened - but that is simply how Baki's always been written. Almost every chapter ends with a sudden sight or movement, which leads into the first few pages of the next chapter breaking down exactly what happened in that movement/vision. It sucks, but what are we to do?
This chapter is beyond retarded.
Its probably the most stupid thing I have er seen.
But I fucking love it.
>>144018226
>reddit academia reaction image
Go away pleb,you're not welcome here.

It is not the stupidest thing you have ever seen.

>>144016569
Invisible Imagination swords here we come!
>>144017790
Yeah. I'm not saying I don't expect Musashi to recover, but I can't really imagine how he's gonna do it. So it wouldn't surprise me if Pickle actually wins and this is the start of Musashi getting Ali Jr'd.
>>144018318
Think of me
Think of me fondly, when we've said goodbye...
God damn I love baki.
>>144016569
pulling through i see Itagaki, wondering if we will see a stoppage
>>144019366
>wondering if we will see a stoppage
If it happens, I want a 3-way grudge match between Pickle, Motobe, and Baki. Nothing short of that will sate me.
>>144019583
yeah, exactly, but it will probably be Musashi schooling Pickle in the end
any word on chapter 99 translation?
>>144019636
Now that Retsu is dead, Pickle will job to the new characters.
>>144019655
Yessir, we are on it. Arstavial and I just finished the script for the second chapter of Kenjin, and I think he said he was looking over 99. Ultimately, the better question is when we'll get the pages for any of it cleaned/redrawn. Cleaner goes MIA pretty often. If we can't get 99 out by like Friday or something, I'll try to pressure them to get a move-on for Kenjin chapter 1.
>>144018187
I mean yes, but it's still information we got out of other pages. That being said I'm not that mad since I thought about it and this battle is super important, so burning pages is all the better.
>>144018463
Should Musashi recover? Has anyone ever taken a blow from Pickle that hard in battle and recovered? Maybe jack?
>>144016569
If he already has a wound, how would it feel to be cut by the imaginary sword if he uses it right in the fucking wound? Musashi doesn't need the sword, he is gonna cut Pickle in half just by making him thought so.
>>144020006
Jack and Baki.Jack is literally on every steroid known to man while Baki either gets hit completly and faints or somehow manages to partially parry it.
>>144020078
Point is that both this time and last time the bones never got cut. So maybe Musashi first cuts his former sword(now wielded by Picle) and shows Pickle that his hand is even sharper?
is Motobe watching the fight from somewhere?
>>144020212
That's how I see it going, if Pickle isn't fated to an absolute victory. The thing is that Itagaki has gone well out of his way to make sure that nobody knows just how strong Pickle is, by having him never lose. If Musashi kills/totally defeats Pickle, it'll suddenly create a bunch of power-leveling nonsense traceable back to his first fights in SoO, and I'm pretty sure Itagaki doesn't want that.
>>144020369
He's doing the Gaia sand thing, and is actually standing right in front of them in the ring.
>>144016195
>using katana instead of a real sword
>>144021160
>using those toys instead of a handsword
Why is this allowed?
>>144021682
Because someone let them get away with a Doppo one before, and this is the fallout.
>>144021682
Imagine his tightness boys
>>144021682
Because this whole series is Itagaki felishing out his bara homoerotic fetishism.
You know, if Pickle wins he's going to eat Musashi. Would someone actually step in to save him? Are they capable of, even if they wanted to? Or maybe Pickle can just be downed with darts, I don't know.
Another option is that he eats Musashi's hands and he doesn't give a fuck and starts using imaginary hands.
>>144021682
It's called style anon-kun.
>>144021682
Because Baki is the gayest franchise on this Earth. Even actual bara comics aren't as gay. It's a fact you have to accept before you start reading.
>Seriously believing Musashi will lose
it's like /a/ never read Shounen before.
>>144026995
A general rule of thumb does not mean that something is impossible.
>>144026995
Keep in mind Baki lost to Pickle, so it's not impossible.
>>144016226
PICKLE SANDWHICH
>>144027784
How long till Memetobe teaches Baki how to use weapons?
>>144027956
6-10 chapters
>>144026995
The thing is, previous fights all followed a predictable patter. Musashi gets hit, talks some shit, (imagination) slashes up his opponent, the end. Now he got a full hit from Pickle, his sword was taken and the imagination bullshit doesn't work, he's in a situation we really don't know how he'll get out of.
>>144016309
>>144018592
>>144029041
yeah, but he's not squished there like in the others
>>144016848
How would a primate meet a velociraptor? They were millions of years apart.
>>144020469
>implying power lecels in Baki ever made sense
>>144028082
He'll throw Pickle around

To draw like this you need to master anatomy
>>144029306
Author dun curr.
Fuck history, anatomy, politics, or the limits of human bodies. He just wants a cool story, he doesn't care if it makes sense
Is it just me or are all the scans of Baki Dou that you can find online always in the wrong page order?
>>144029757
He'll pull out a gun
>>144018463
>I can't really imagine how he's gonna do it
>>144018352
>>144016569he's going to give the sword back to musashi
>>144031167
He already tried that in their previous fight.
>>144030334
Does your image reader fuck up when the pages are named without leading zeros?
>>144023660
Baki can stop and scold Pickle any time he wants.
>>144031265
not the ultimate technique he was trying to sue on Yujiro, he used his "normal" imagination swords.
>>144031226
that'd be p BA actually
>>144034241
Pickle loves challenges, if musashi is defeated this easy, he won't be as savory, so he needs him to threaten him and fight more.
Pickle wants to earn his food.
>>144034341
That'd be quite a new direction for Itagaki if he did actually have Pickle do that. Can't even imagine how Motobe might react. I mean, under Motobe's rules of fighting, that would have meant Pickle had won.
>>144031764
Normal imagination swords are pretend swords he holds on empty hands, the ultimate technique uses the edge of his hand as a pretend blade. He used the latter on Pickle.
>>144035110
He never tried to actually cut Pickle with that technique; I dunno what you're thinking. Musashi shredded into Yuujiro's leg with his hand-swords. Pickle wasn't injured in the slightest, beyond the hypothetical damage.
>>144034620
I really think it can be a strong possibility.
Some other way this could go is by musashi using both swords, but I think he only took one to the arena.
>>144035570
I really think we haven't seen that technique completed, just that glimpse that got interrupted by memetobe.
>>144035726
>just that glimpse that got interrupted by memetobe
You're forgetting this.
Also, as you said - it's weird; Musashi has only been carrying around one sword, despite his whole thing being Niten Ichiryuu. He never even bothered getting the other half of his daishou. Who knows; maybe it'll be explained later. It hasn't been explained or justified in the raws.
