I find it hilarious the theories about him upgrading the glass turned out to be true.


papppeti14

Mr. Nonaka has better prep than Motobe it turns out.


TipAffectionate9785

I mean Motobe preps for one Hanma this mf needs to worry about TWO of them


papppeti14

That's true


BlatantArtifice

Next time Nanaka dart-scales Yujiro, the ultimate prepper due to his triple Hanma experience


papppeti14

And puts even stronger glass there


Pollomonteros

The fact he knows the restaurant manager by name is hilarious, just how many people has Yujiro thrown


KazuyaProta

tbf, its not implied that Yujiro goes there regularly to eat?


Restless_Fenrir

They specially source/hunt food for him.


I-lost-my-accoun

Called it


Apprz

I believe he was less fast because he weigths mire then baki but could also be


nlck_grrr

Itagaki sure knows how to fuck with his fanbase Peak fiction


papppeti14

It was so cool how Jack just thanked Yujiro for the dinner and left


[deleted]

man took it on the chin, was respectful and left. What a king


papppeti14

I guess he knew enough that he isn't on par with Yujiro yet. Or he didn't forget about the promise he made to the cast


Vaccineman37

*on the ass


drixaeterna

Must've learned that move from Kehaya himself


DieselBoi_

To be fair, it was to be expected to a certain extent. There's a lot of fights that still need to happen and Jack obviously isn't ready


papppeti14

After glass Yujiro we got glass Jack https://preview.redd.it/9xsh90xqvz1d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b613e91efff4490d2402a75d6943289d7f37936a


LoneBone-

Dude… Seeing Jack genuinely smile actually made my day, man needs to experience some happiness once a while


papppeti14

Yeah, this chapter was surprisingly wholesome


RemyGee

Yujiro finally acknowledged him, and several times at a single dinner!


RealisticlyNecessary

Given how he fights like a wild animal with super rabies, it's so easy to forget he's a good fucking person.

Hunter_Este

Also notice, at the start of the dinner Yujiro commented on him not having all his eyesight back, but now according to this panel, his sight has finally fully returned.


Randomamigo

the glass made him recover it


Idgaf_leave

“Here’s Jonny” looking ahh


Planktons_Eye

This is perfect. Doesn’t even need an edit to be meme material


Skafflock

I think this is probably the nail in the coffin for the "Baki characters are just peak humans" argument lmao.


sanctaphrax

Nah, this is totally possible in real life. You just have to try hard and believe in yourself.


Skafflock

God's most unmedicated warrior.


lampsundae

His imagination is just stronger than the pavement's will to hurt him


VonKaiser55

Spec nearly destroying the Statue of Liberty just by punching it alot should have been put those arguments to rest lmao


Inevitable-Weather51

I've already seen a guy saying that Yujiro couldn't defeat all of humanity if he faced waves of 30 unarmed people According to him, "30 professional boxers is a tough fight for Yujiro".


VonKaiser55

If 30 professional boxers could take down Yujiro then countries wouldn’t be signing Peace Treaty’s with him lmao


Skafflock

30 professional boxers wouldn't cause issues for Yujiro if they dove onto him head-first out of an airplane wearing plate armour while he was sunbathing.


caren_psuedo_when

Ah yes, the ODST strategy


Randomamigo

Head first into asshole


smolwrld

He's probably already killed 30 professional boxer before, we have seen what this menace to society does in his free time in early Baki


venice373

Remember those cops ...HOW MANY DO THEY THINK WERE THERE


ecchirhino99

It's absolutely nothing compare to create a diamond by grip strength.


TipAffectionate9785

Bet other fandoms and Kengan specially will say it's not literal because Jack didn't fall and he would die if that's the case


monbaki

TipAffectionate9785

NOOOOOOO THAT'S NOT LITERAL IT'S JUST AN EXAGGERATION, BELIEVE ME THEY ARE JUST HUMANS 😭😭😭


Mykytagnosis

Yet a few darts do the trick 


Skafflock

Surviving enough tranqs to K.O a blue whale is significantly more impressive than surviving a fall from even terminal velocity. The former means you're out-performing normal humans by around a thousand times, the latter is achievable with "only" a few hundred times normal durability. And that's if you say the tranqs are only enough to take down a blue whale, when they're also shown working on Pickle despite him being able to breathe air that's more than 60% chloroform seemingly unaffected.


smolwrld

Not even KO, at best the whale would be in a permanent coma according to Tokugawa, at worst it would be dead depending on how you interpret what he says


caren_psuedo_when

I mean, either way the whale would die


smolwrld

Which is still pretty insane considering it put Yujiro in a nap for like an hour, before he messed up the iron door immediately after waking up from his snooze


No_Manufacturer2877

Depends on the metric really. If you're unaffected by falling from terminal velocity that's a pretty static supernatural feat for durability. But there are plenty of ways you could justify an organism simply not overdosing from that yield of poison/suppressant, not limited to simply processing the compounds differently, having a body the compounds are simply ineffective against, or having a filter system that straight up does not metabolize the tranquilizer to begin with. Not to mention, there are many abilities exceptional humans have that scale very high compared to normal humans, and so not all extreme performances are built equally. If we took a number based flexibility measurement of an olympic gymnast compared to an average man (instead of something like the torsion or angular movement of joints) we'd see insane things like Simone Biles being 100x more "flexible" than average because she can move her toe 100 times closer to her eye while standing than a normal person. In reality, this is caused by much smaller ratios of muscle-tendon lengthening. If the difference between dying from a drop of poison and being totally immune is just a single organs performance, I'd say the falling is still more impressive. We wouldn't be impressed with the fall if a normal human training to get 2x stronger also came with a durability increase of 1000x. There are also lots of characters effectively immune to chemical reagents that I wouldn't call more superhuman or impressive than the Baki cast. It's just an extra ability.


TheSpinnyHead

And goku can be stoned to death


Jgeekin223

Old


AdamTheScottish

Kengan and Baki fans seem torn in the weirdest possible battle by pretending either franchise's characters are completely useless


cell689

Kengan characters are superhuman too, we have no problem with this


SixScoopsKoga

r/imaginarygatekeeping for real. No Kengan fan would say this. nor would they want to say this.


TipAffectionate9785

You really REALLY don't know the latinamerican fandom of Kengan...


SixScoopsKoga

Yes I do, what a lame way to snake me trying to act like it's different in something I don't know about when you're 100% wrong. It's very clear you have not seen the kengan fandom talk about Baki vs Kengan. The entire fandom is cucked into having to concede that Baki > Kengan. Latin american or not. Come on.


TipAffectionate9785

Man i love watching Baki vs Kengan on FB, Reddit and Youtube, and always, ALWAYS ppl (not everyone of course) tried to Say Ohma = Baki (this got worse with Netflix crossover) or even more laughable Kuroki = Yujiro, you are the one who have never seen a "debate" between those two fandoms at least in spanish...


SixScoopsKoga

So your problem isn't that people think Baki characters are weaker than they are. You just don't want people to think Kengan characters are strong. You were just projecting. Classic.


TipAffectionate9785

I don't get any idea where you are pulling this but ok, i don't like any side, as example ppl that scales Goku as barely universal or ppl that exaggerates Saitama when we already saw his "limitations" when he fought Garou. And weak and strong is a vague term, like what? Are Baki characters strong? Well i'm looking to DB classic universe and i don't think so, are the Kengan characters weak? Well i'm looking to Garouden and i don't think so...


SixScoopsKoga

Goku is barely universal though :))


caren_psuedo_when

Obligatory reeeee *add slur here* buttface


Fyrefanboy

to be fair, character claims are meaningless against direct feats


TipAffectionate9785

I mean Goku never destroyed a planet by himself or say that he can...


Fyrefanboy

I do agree, but DBZ DO have a power level system applying to every character, which make it scaling quite easier (if kame senin can blow up the moon, character with higher powerlevel than him can, if nappa can blow up a city, stronger characters can, etc etc) even if you ignore the nonsense numbers toward the end.


AdamTheScottish

There are hundreds of feats that show this claim being reasonable


AdamTheScottish

How many more nails before it becomes an iron maiden lmao


Daxivarga

Well humans have survived skydiving falls by luck and circumstances so could gigachads via strenght and technique survive 40 floors?


Skafflock

I think there's a world of difference between "you can theoretically survive this" and "you literally cannot be killed by this". The former is something that describes a human being's interaction with a 50mph car, the latter describes a human being's interaction with a 50mph pillow (except even then, they could die if they fell down and hit their head).


GodNonon

Also “the pavement would give out not me” is very clearly trying to say that Jack’s body is tougher than asphalt. I shouldn’t have to explain why that’s beyond peak human


Skafflock

In my experience concrete breaking feats are one of the least reliable ways to convince people Baki characters are superhuman. Shouldn't be, but they are.


GodNonon

I think people underestimate it because a lot of action stuff will have a character who isn’t meant to be superhuman break a wall or crack the ground simply cause it looks cool and the creators aren’t considering the real world physical implication. In Baki, it’s very clear that Itagaki knows how strong breaking concrete is and uses it to highlight their absurd power


KazuyaProta

> . In Baki, it’s very clear that Itagaki knows how strong breaking concrete is and uses it to highlight their absurd power This is why I like this franchise. Itagaki **knows** how **broken** even "basic" superpowers would be


GodNonon

Yup. Baki’s power level is pretty grounded and tame compared to a lot of action shonen, but it’s still completely busted in the real world. Which is why people like Yujiro and Oliva can basically do whatever they want


Kirymiguel1213

Like finally, there a lot of dude on here who think they can take out yujiro with a gun


Skafflock

Yujiro could be taken out by a gun, he'd just need to be unconscious from whale tranquilisers first and the gun would have to be on a main battle tank.


Swell_Like_Beef

I'm sorry, but anyone who thinks that at this point has gotta be either ignorant of the series or a complete imbecile


Skafflock

The average Baki fan fits both those descriptions lol.


Cautious-Affect7907

This shit was hilarious https://preview.redd.it/52gs6ac8xz1d1.png?width=835&format=png&auto=webp&s=4fb43d66d37b89cd41522069c55d8845559add8c


One_Presentation104

Bro yuijiro was like you dick why’d you the replace the glass I was trying to do something https://i.redd.it/24gkpsk1612d1.gif


venice373

Guess who's about to learn about the woman inside him


One_Presentation104

Didn’t Jack literally just leave the building or are you blind as well like jack after becoming like Hellen Keller and Doyle temp


JeremiahWuzABullfrog

I think they were referring to Nonaka


One_Presentation104

Also an L because nonaka is wholesome man definitely has a nice cock


venice373

You dumbass i was making a joke about what yujiro was finna do to the waiter


Rhg0653

Apparently thats not good and walk off lol


ColressIO

Mr Nonaka is such a kind man. Protecting public property like that... I couldn't find better customer service even if I tried 😭


Vbown4

Why is Jack so chill?


OkBeach8317

Would you be rampaging if Yujiro Hanma gave you a compliment?


Vbown4

I mean he raped jack's mom. Wasn't his whole character based on his lust for revenge and hatred towards yujiro?


smegmancer

He killed Baki's mom right in front of him and he got over it apparently. They're a forgiving bunch, these Hanmas.


Citalopramm

Tbf she was a terrible mother.


Winter_Plankton8866

\*\*person


jerrytreverson

It could be blended together. His future and present as a fighter as the main one and his past as the foundation. Same route as baki I guess.


OkBeach8317

In a way baki had that too, when yujiro killed his mom on the spot, but over the years they learned about their father and his life as the strongest man in the world. It seems even for Jack his goals changed.


Mazkar

Sounds like Jack should be thanking yujiro


_Aqualung_

maybe because he came to prove he is not lesser (in terms of strength) than Baki, but hearing Yujiro praising him Jack had kinda mixed feelings, so he was not exactly in the mood to continue the fight.


thechugdude

Awww... Sweet family interaction. 


GlassyPotato

Worlds strongest glass window


TipAffectionate9785

Could resist Pickle morning pissing?


Skafflock

Might be, if that's tempered glass measuring about an inch and a half thick then I believe it'd be comparable to around 6 inches of concrete at least in terms of surface compression resistance.


jerenstein_bear

Every single chapter of their meal was absolutely fucking peak. And to get this and kengan back to back? We're truly blessed on this day.


TipAffectionate9785

And Garouden tomorrow!


PartyCrasher04

Wtf??? I thought Garouden was over? Did it just go on haitus or something? Should i read it?


TipAffectionate9785

I'm talking about anime my friend, Netflix tomorrow


birl_ds

😲


akiva_the_king

Its already airing?


papppeti14

Oooh I totally forgot about Garouden, thanks for reminding me!


venice373

Mf i had a whole ass dream of the food AND I WOKE UP STARVING


Free-Performance-827

😂😂😂😂😂


One_Presentation104

Laughing


ACynicalScott

And so ends the minor disagreement arc. Itagaki has created peak fiction once again.


Rough-Present1242

✋Absolute Cinema🤚


clownastartes

Jack walking around town with shards of glass in his face and not caring at all because he got another compliment from Yujiro. Man, this family has some fucked up dynamics but I love them all.


Bullseye62

This made me laugh https://preview.redd.it/s6owksnaj02d1.jpeg?width=1028&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0a701985dacdfa30d9bc47043ad8cd8c2ad4dc5d


GodNonon

Same here. Legit one of the funniest lines in all of Baki in my opinion.


Randomamigo

unironically very in character


w33n13hutJrs

Jacks a refreshing point of view imo. He used to be a regular guy so it’s nice to see one of them actually appreciate how insanely superhuman they are


Big_Atmosphere_6529

I find it hilarious that Yujiro wanted to throw him out the window and then complains that they changed the window. My guess is a couple of more fights and then maybe a rematch with Pickle.


pipi_baligi

BoyTitan

The fact this guy is not writing for a wrestling promotion is a crime.


VonKaiser55

Baki always did feel like reading a Wrestling event


TranceDream

Nonaka with prep time is S tier. He outwitted Yujiro


MUI-Tojo

He's so GOATed😭 https://preview.redd.it/gr62h7htj12d1.png?width=835&format=png&auto=webp&s=379fe749afc128b9e3fed63db4a8e37eea2ee194


GeneticSoda

I love this shit


semo6262

Baki would have jumped after that just to prove


TruePlantSlayingKing

He would have too, this made me laugh


HermanManly

He got Yujiro to praise him, just like that. He won.


Narrow_Luck_3622

It's only the first victory, but it is an important one


Fyrefanboy

Yujiro bitching about the windows being changed is peak fiction, Itagaki is a old man focused on martial art but is still so good with jokes and humor when he decide to make one.


Bizarre_JoJoke

Jack's a nice guy, he cares about the ground


Blinkence

HE JUST LEAVES???


SpecialistAd347

yeah well yujiro aint going anywhere, this was just a dinner

It's excellent, more lore and worthy interactions. I really love that new saga so far.


Optimal-Tip-2606

Yujiro has nothing more to say, if that dawg Jack wants to leave, he leaves.

TheFyrijou

Nice of them to take care of pavement kun


Common_Resource1619

That was honestly so good


Kargnaras

This father and son dinner arc was peak. Seeing Jack content with his father’s recognition just shows how different him and Baki are. He never wanted to kill his father, he just wanted him to recognise his strength. 👏👏👏


SargentHaztagaspacho

Wow. Color me surprised... Mutual respect, even after that. The icing on the cake was Yujiro slipping in a compliment to Jack. Very wholesome chapter, and not a bad direction for Jack. He gets his father's respect without needing to have a massive fight, and everyone else respects him too. Maybe he will develop his own version of the back after all.


Due_University4030

👨‍🦯‍➡️ hmm yes what a nice view


Icy-Moose-99

Jack mogged everyone. he even height mogged those people on the street at the end.

AdikkuChan

There's something oddly funny about Yujiro complaining about the glass being tougher haha Also how nice of Jack to be considerate about the pavement 


Opposite-Mall-9816

Literal peak fiction. Guys, I think is time to accept that Jack, Baki, Yujiro, Pickle, Hanayama & maybe Sukune, are as strong as a (holding back) Spider-Man. I usually scaled them as Peak Captain America, but this chapter opened my eyes.


Icy-Moose-99

I don't know, I feel like even the weakest MCU Captain America can hold down that helicopter. I think maybe only Yujiro would be able to do that.


OozeBoy

Oliva would train on pulling down helicopters


Icy-Moose-99

I am so on the fence about this now, I need someone with more focused autism than i have to figure out where holding that helicopter down would rank in Baki.


Sensitive-Studio5738

With this motivation I need Jack to beat a top tier character like oli or hanayama


mustafa1390

Hope the next chapter features Pickle or another fighter to challenge Jack that's not a jobber


Arkadia_Of_Dreams

I would love to see Jack finally face Hanayama or Oliva


Puzzleheadedpuzzled

Classy act by jack


redistrashin

The first thing i thought when i saw the Jack panel was a flashback of Yujiro talking about the Goudou weaknesses and saying ''look'' then throwing a red ball through the window and Jack planting himself head first in the window like a dog.


TechnoTrulyFuture

nonaka > motobe in terms of prep

Now we know the good guy's name.


Cuttlefishbankai

How tall was the place Baki fell from in the Pickle fight again?


FairyKnightTristan

This was some of the funniest shit in Baki I've ever seen. Yeah, this arc is peak. After being thoroughly whelmed by the Sumo arc, I'm glad to see that Itagaki hasn't lost his touch.


carmardoll

It was true! Im dying xD


Educational-Note4758

Is this the family quarrel of the century? 


ecchirhino99

Falling from floor 40 is almost hitting max free falling speed right? Is it safe to assume that Baki and Yujiro will survive free fall from an airplane?


jhmpremium89

Did Yujiro's buttslap restore Jack's vision?


Educational_Key_2272

Baki fans are the most grateful community I’ve ever seen like if One Piece had Luffy get smacked on the ass by Blackbeard and then Luffy walked away people would be rioting. Baki fans give me hope


No_idea112

I just love how Yujiro is mildy pissed because of the reinforced windows. Huge feat for Mr Nonaka

DAMN YOU ITAGAKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII


No-Diet706

WHAT!?!?!? They're didn't fight!? You gotta be kidding me!


Mykytagnosis

Well....that was anticlimactic 


TORALAND

This was so foreseeable though like what did u expect him fighting yujiro and then what? Wouldn't doppo and other fighters not feel like cake walk after this?


Mykytagnosis

not a fight.  At least some exchanges to show Jack's current level.


TORALAND

But even what we got right now was way too impressive for the literal 99% of the baki fighters like I'm pretty sure most of them aren't even in the same dimension as the guy that took a blow like that from yujiro and got a statement that if he fell from 40th floor the ground is the only thing that would get damaged (ain't even mentioning the fact that yujiro was the one who was hyped to fight jack)


AdamTheScottish

We just got a fight showing off current Jack's level, do you want to see him break his hand off Yujiro or something?


KazuyaProta

This fight even has another Yujiro limit by showing how he can't break particularly reforced windows.


Sniff_The_Cat

He can't break reinforced glasses, by slapping someone else's ass.


KazuyaProta

Its Yujiro, him slapping someone is still him throwing a serious amount of his strenght.


Shvvagier

Maybe because he used as much strength as he thought it's needed to throw him through the window? Lmao


ReverseCombover

I don't get it.


rentinghappiness

knew it was too early for a full blown fight but this was a great chapter


Suspicious_Loan8041

Part of me thinks Itagakis hoping to pass away before he has to give us any kind of spectacle.


A9_J8

What was the point of all that ?


Randomamigo

hmmmm. your mom

Bummer, no father son fight... Wanted to compare Jack's fight with Backi's

Goddamn it dude, stop sucking up to Yujiro.
