----------------------------------------
This was probably the worst episode in terms of animation, the entire Katou vs Dorian fight was awful.
And talking about the fight, Dorian won as expected, that hypnotism/genjutsu and the random Naruto music were funny though.
I also thought Katou was dead after that bottle attack but especially after that wire attack.

That 3d was quite jarring. I still like how absolutely nuts this series is, but there also seem to be some continuity errors (how the fuck did Doppo get his hand back?). Its a really bad adaptation, no doubt about it, but at least the content is entertaining.

I think the fight was good I really enjoyed it.
The singing scene was perfect.

It wasn't a bad episode in terms of enjoyment, but it's definitely the weakest episode of this new season so far.

I really enjoyed the singing scene whilst fighting but the CG animation definitely came off like shit here compared to its previous episodes. What a shame.

I really like this anime so far. The character design is on point for a series like this. The fights are nice and brutal, good choreographed, but the cgi is so bad it rips of every bit of enjoyment every time i see it on screen. Hope they fix it or use it less in further episodes.

It's amazing how they have adapted so much useless info dump crap from the manga, but skipped Doppo asking a surgeon to sew his hand back.
And even though I have already read the manga, the convicts STILL annoy me. They don't care about fighting, they just want to kill the Underground Arena guys while THEY try to fight back. As for Dorian, I didn't even remember he had hypnotic powers, and that's just bullshit.

Anyway, I've seen some people wondering how they'll adapt all 30+ volumes in 26 episodes, but I think at this pace, they'll be able to do it just fine.

The episode would have been great had it not been for the PS2 looking CGI. Whoever is producing Baki, you are not cut out for CGI. Stick with 2D.

I cant believe they drew Doppo with his hand in that frame, instead of wraped in bandages, what a hilarious mistake. For those who dont know, Doppo is suppose to show he reattached his hand in episode 10 or 11. About the fight, it was enjoyable at least, not a fan of the CGI, but they used pretty usefully, being fast and with 2D scenes in between. The fight was good/brutal at the and and the latter half of the episode was pretty hyped.

Dorian is a fucking beast! But why didn't he kill that Kato guy though? Also these shin shin kai fodders are useless. Let Doppo handle him lol

Dang Dorian.. he should have become a singer or a voice actor with his singing voice xD

I mean what do you expect from extras?
I thought you can understand that Dorian! Apparently not

Didn't remember Kato being that strong. (In the tournament arc anime I think he was only there as spectator and I can't remember anything before that.)

Still Dorian was fun with his hypnosis and completely destoying Kato. And that singing lol.

RIP kato, he was to weak to estimate his opponents strength, if he wasn't noticed by Retsu before he kicked the bag he could have a lot more injuries
Damn even though all those members of the Shinsenkai aren't a match for a monster like Dorian, I have to admit the chasing scene was pretty epic
A lot more cgi compared to previous episode, looks more like a ps2 game than an anime

Kato put up a good fight but how tf is this man still alive. Should've been long dead due to bleeding out before Retsu even found his body....

Bad CGI, they're spamming it way too much.. Doppo sure has an insane amount of followers though, didn't think his school was that popular.

The Shin Shin Kai's very much like a Yakuza organization more than anything but those numbers of theirs unfortunately didn't do much in fighting monsters like Dorian.

Speaking of Dorian, as despicable as he is, he's more awesome than ever before. It's not everyday that you get to see a fight so one-sided that the opposition decides to sing a song as they beat you up.
