Review of Baki the Grappler
First of all, the bad stuff. The art is not easy on the eyes and quite inconsistent. For instance, Baki looks like a completely different person once he ages. Storyline is pretty much non-existent and very generic of fighting animes (fight - train - fight again - train - win ultimate final fight). It's not a challenging anime to watch at all. Nothing unique about the way its done. Pretty much the same as stuff like Tenjou Tenge. But having said that, the entertainment value is enormous. It's very gratifying to be fed action scene after action scene. Fights were well choreographed and exciting towatch (even though you knew in the end who would eventually win).
Very much worth watching because its a no-nonsense blast for fighting anime fans. If you've never watched a fighting anime before, this would be a good start!
