Some quick news for fight fans: Baki-Dou, the fourth major story arc of Keisuke Itagaki’s over-the-top martial arts manga, is being adapted into an anime with animation production by TMS Entertainment. The series originally ran from 2014 – 2018 in Akita Shoten’s Weekly Shonen Champion manga magazine, and the original manga has also been released in 22 collected volumes in Japan. An English language version of the second story arc, New Grappler Baki, is available from Media Do International.
Taking place immediately after the “Strongest Parent / Child Quarrel” arc, Baki-Dou features Baki Hanma and his fellow fighters overcome with a sense of malaise until the legendary swordsman, Miyamoto Musashi, is revived in the modern day through cloning and necromancy at a secret base located 364 meters beneath Tokyo Sky Tree. Further details about the anime adaptation, such as the release date, have not yet been revealed.
