Shigurui

Shigurui is a samurai anime which shares many similar characteristics with Baki. Both stories are a sort of build up to an ultimate end fight; Yujiro in Baki and irako in Shigurui. Unfortunately both anime do not complete the story to conclude the end fight, to which you will have to read the manga to conclude. Art for both are very similar in my opinion, especially in the manga. The art styles for both mangaka are really similar and not just in the character styles but also the graphic violence. However the animation for shigurui is much better and a joy to watch if you appreciate this kind of thing. Although both anime are violent in nature, shigurui is much more gory and contains a lot of nudity. Shigurui is perhaps a more mature and realistic anime than Baki, however I found them really similar when watching/reading both. I would recommend reading the manga for both to complete the stories and see their similarities.
