Walking Maria was more surprising than the outcome of the fight.

This was another dope season. Looking forward to see Pickle in action. Was already wondering when he would appear.

I saw a manga panel of him, it seems like he's one of the first humans on earth (Baki universe) you can do more research about him if you want. His name is ''Pickle''

Well, a pretty good fight with some good animation.
The outcome was predictable but it was a well choreograph'd fight.
my fav shot.
Also, Maria walked? That's some next level shit fr..
And a cliffhanger in the end. Yujiro's laugh makes me chuckle everytime.
Oldest man and a dinosaurus? Baki never fails to amaze me.

Can't wait for Pickle. Or Jack. Or Shiba. Or Yujiro.
Hope the new season drops soon. Like Spring!

I felt this season was the most entertaining and kept my attention more than the previous. Only thing that kills me is the constant backstory/info segments. I get pumped whenever Yujiro appears.

Lol what was that at the end?

Well ... great show. 8/10 like the other seasons. (Only the old small OVA specials I scored lower.)
Yeah: There was not much new. And I would have liked to also see great guys like Doppo and Shibukawa Gouki again.

But: Finally some stuff with the US presidents. Heard a lot about it and saw manga scenes. "Bosch" this time. The other chars - Oliva (did not like im before that much cause he didn't have a lot screen time in previous seasons) and Guevaru - were fun.

Also the style of directing/narration - liked the last 2 episodes with the witnesses commenting/explaining the fight.

+ Ootsuka, Houchuu as voice actor for Oliva ... and a lot of screentime for him. Yeah I can stay with 8/10 for this season. Also looking forward to more.

LOL at Baki's plot armor. Oliva had multiple chances to finish him off, but just waited around for Baki to get up or regain consciousness. Oliva >>>>>>>>>> Baki, deal with it.

Loved the trashing America vibes this gave off as well lmao, never enough of that. 8/10.

I've finally caught up to everything after dropping it around the first part and it's crazy how this show turned itself around for me. I actually didn't like it early on with the badly used CG action and I was so glad when they eventually dropped that for regular animation in the fights. It just kept getting more and ridiculous and it's not stopping even slightly after the end of this season.

Like this is genuinely just the dumbest show in terms of the characters and writing, but in the best way possible, because it only adds to the insanity. It's Jojo, but ramped up, which is saying a lot for how over the top Jojo can get lol

Decent season with the usual over-the-top stuff like Baki doing some shadowboxing with his imagination and going to prison to have a little brawl with 'Unchained' Oliva. Especially compared to previous season where the series basically shit on Muhammed Ali jr. by pointlessly beating him up multiple times. The last part with the prehistoric creature and the Neanderthaler looks promising for the next season.

This is gar genre for you. It looks so cool, insane and beautiful that you can easily overlook its asspulls, absurdity and constant logics and physics denial, which certainly would destroy your experience if it were for some other show.
You simply can just relax and enjoy all those flashy pictures and engrossing insanity.
Basically, it's fanservice but for chads.

I just don't see how Baki was the victor... I mean, Oliva was only down for like 10 seconds, and with barely any injuries. Oliva had knocked Baki down for longer than that a few times... ugh....

Guy who looks like Yujiro inside of a giant salt rock.... interesting....

overall pretty garbage season ngl, 4/10

baki's character this season kinda ruined it for me .

the outcome of baki vs oliver was predictable but the way it was reached didn't make sense .

other than that it was a decent season .

overall : 7/10 (just because of that pirate guy ) .

Interesting how the lovable and seemingly neutral Oliva Biscuit turned into somewhat of an antagonist. At the end of the day, Oliva is just a bit vain and egotitical. But he's not truly antagonistic or mean-spirited. He's prone to bouts of anger, but in the end, he's still a charming and adequate character.

My only source of dissatisfaction is rooted in Baki simply winning the hyped up fight via force, and no special technique or realization. Is force really better than strength or power? Baki and Oliva seemed to punch each other the same amount of times -- how was Baki withstanding the strongest punches in America -- and how did Oliva sustain more trauma. Even if equal in strength, idk, I guess I'd have to attribute it to Baki being smaller and thus having more agility? This doesn't affect my scoring of the anime. I just found the conclusion to be slightly underwhelming.


I think this series is just fine. It's a great story that they seem to put a lot of love into. For as much anime that revolve around, or are solely about, fighting -- you can tell they try to distinguish Baki.

I always get a kick out of how they try to ground the outlandish in reality using convoluted logic, narration, and supplementary visuals. This show has a huge "WTF factor" like JoJo.

I'm content with my binge. While the first season featuring the escaped prisoners was the most interesting and unique, I'm proud to have made it to here and look forward to future installments.

This season started out so good, and was honestly my fav baki season til Guevera lost his fight with Oliva. Then everything lost my interest and reminded me that "Oh yea, this is Baki. To hell with good plot". Honestly Guevera and his backstory and the integration of the U.S. gov were carrying this season hard for me. Everything else was bleh.

The fight conclussion between Baki and Jack Hammer on the '01 anime was even worse than this, Jack even had to help him get up after the fight.

Hopefully they'll change Baki's personality again for the next season, but to one more interesting this time.

At least we got a decent season that didn't get ruined by the last few episodes this time.

Review en Español and English

HERMOSO episodio, Oliva tiene defensa absoluta y te come como en Pac-Man increible...le atine con lo que dije antes (episodio anterior) y Baki lo sobrepaso con una animacion asombrosa, Increible que perdiera Oliva (pense que lo iban a extender para otra temporada) y Maria demostro su amor hacia Oliva...muy lindo. Uno de los mejores episodio de esta temporada y de baki en general.
PD: eso ultimo que encontraron en una excavacion literalmente se parece a Yujiro, que nos espera la proxima temporada ? todo puede ser en este anime

BEAUTIFUL episode, Oliva has absolute defense and eats you like in Pac-Man incredible... I matched what I said before (previous episode) and Baki surpassed it with an amazing animation, Incredible that Oliva lost (I thought they were going to extend it for another season) and Maria showed her love towards Oliva...very cute. One of the best episode of this season and of baki in general.
PS: that last thing they found in an excavation literally looks like Yujiro, what awaits us next season? everything can be in this anime

Great Prison Battle Arc - COMPLETE

Hooooly shit what a cool arc!! I like that we got a prison arc, I think it's a cool change of pace / scenery for Baki, and there were some awesome fights. I've gotten a lot of hype from Oliva and I think it's safe to say I finally get it -- his fight with Gavarru was really dope, that guy as a character too, was very interesting, but wow.

Baki vs. Oliva was a fight to behold too, I think if Baki can beat him he can absolutely beat his father. Really awesome animation and some cool shots, and again and again and again Baki proves himself to be the greatest of all time. He is MY goat.

Absolutely loved this arc and I'm really excited for the next season ... It's almost in sight!!!!
