It's just hilarious how they're casually acting like the fight against Iron Michael actually happened. Admittedly, compared to what's up next it might as well be believable xD

Digged this seemingly risky image training against a mantis. CGI was pretty good too.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Two episodes in and I like it so far and this time Baki was doing image training against a praying mantis that was twice its size. The praying mantis is a persistent and formidable insect. There was a reason why the praying mantis style was developed and exists today in the world of martial arts. Baki was able to overcome his own manifestation of the praying mantis by mimicking the praying mantis style.

The OP is a banger too.

Not really feeling it this season yet. I'm gonna need real fights not imaginary ones. Plus that kid is annoying.

This imaginary fighting is so stupid, wish they never added that bs in.

And let's be real, Defeating a 20 ton Elephant is much harder than defeating a 100kg Mantis

honestly a elephant would be stronger but the mantis is smarter and more annoying to deal with

This 'BS' literally sets up the entire fight with Pickle and Yujiro.

Just to clear things up, the insects scaled up larger in reality would not carry over the power.

Square cube law indicates that mass and volume increase much faster than muscle does, weight to the third power and strength to the second.

Not intended as a nitpick but some information.

I am having a hard time with the whole shadow boxing imaginary people/creatures thing...

I mean it's Baki, so I guess it's not really out of character for the show, but I really hope he starts fighting REAL people/creatures soon and not more imaginary creations...

First Mike Tyson and now a 100kg Praying Mantis (which realistically would collapse under its own weight as its skeleton only works on a small scale, Baki can one day perhaps defeat an invisible, imaginary version of his dad lol.

Gotta say this somehow reminded me of Patrick (Spongebob) getting beaten by an invisible person.

Narrating EVERYTHING that's happening on the screen as it happens is tiresome. Wish they came up with a better narrative for this ep /shrug

Review en Español and English

Buen episodio, por un momento pense...Baki ahora secuestra nenes ? jaja.

Me pregunto el nene tendra familia ? esta en la casa de un completo extraño en plena noche viendo a baki peleando con un producto imaginario de su mente, sigue siendo muy entretenido de ver este anime...veremos que mas nos trae esta parte de temporada

PD: se imaginan que al final del anime nos dicen que baki era esquizofrenico y todo lo que vimos nunca paso ? jaja

Good episode, for a moment I thought... Baki now kidnaps children? ha ha.
I wonder will the child have a family? he is in the house of a complete stranger in the middle of the night watching baki fighting with an imaginary product of his mind, it is still very entertaining to watch this anime... we will see what else this part of the season brings us

PS: can you imagine that at the end of the anime they tell us that baki was schizophrenic and everything we saw never happened? ha ha
