I'd like to say that i'm a huge fan of the first 199 chapters of Grappler Baki, and I really tried here, but this is awful. I only made it through 1 episode, and that was really hard to get through. This covered the small amount of the Maximum Tournament that actually is translated in the manga, and it did so poor a job at it that I was shocked. It skips over some characters personalities completely, and literally every character is mischaracterized, I am not exaggerating when I say that. Not to mention that it fails on every technical level, it's horribly directed, the music is oddly unfitting, the colors have this weird early 2000s digital color look that doesn't really work, and it actually has the worst pacing I've ever seen. not to mention it does a pretty bad job of capturing the art style the manga,and seems to censor some of the gore. I wish I could say there was no reason to watch this, but as of now it's the only way to experience the story of the 172 untranslated chapters of Grappler Baki. Can we please get an official release of the manga so that fans don't have to suffer through this?
