Finished watching baki.

[KING NOTHING]

The 2001 anime (more specifically the Maximum tournament) was absolute peak 10/10 and I could rewatch it infinite times.
It set the bar too high I think as the rest of the show was eh. It kept my interest long enough to complete it, something I haven’t done in years now.

the Maximum tournament) was absolute peak

Probably because all the characters were newly introduced and formidable, the power scaling was unpredictable and you didn’t know who would beat who. Later arcs definitely lost this appeal.
Another thing worth noting is how cartoonish and flashy the netflix adaptation was, when the original show was absolutely brutal and grisly.

Feel like the manga is muh better tho
Way better artwork and the muscle exaggeration is just insane.
Never liked the show since it looked more realistic
Currently at musashi arc reading

I would stop while you are ahead just switch to the manga, I never had a problem with the translations.
