Review of Baki: The Great Raitai Tournament Saga

Baki 2nd season i believe is a step in the right direction in terms of the animation for the series,i quite honestly believe that if it continues to improve from season to season that it might get up there with one punch man,but as it is,it leaves a foul taste,sometimes when the characters are supposed to be walking or moving,the whole thing is so poorly done that it looks like they are walking in place. Art style Is in my opinion very good,i love the harsh black outline that depict's the harsh reality the characters are in and have to live in,but on the other hand itsometimes looks janky,but if we can keep this style and improve the animation in the season to come,it would be quite amazing,as it is now,its really good,but because we have this good art style,the animation quality suffers.

Story

To be honest,whoever comes into baki and expects a tightly written story,with 0 inconsistencies and plot holes,really missed the show he should be watching,that being said,the story is okay enough,its noting groundbreaking,and in my opinion the only saving grace here is Muhammad Ali Jr's arc,which in itself wasn't perfect and could have been done better.

Enjoyment

I had lots of fun watching this,all of the fights felt unique and at the very least they were all insane fun to watch,but i think that baki season 1 had more interesting fights

The main issue here

Its probably the length of the season,i feel as tho the ending was rushed,Muhammad's arc felt too short and rushed,the whole tournament felt rushed,i think a solid 24 episode's would have done great justice here and would have made for a much better season.

Overall

All in all this season is okay,if you love baki,you are gonna like this season,but i feel like we need something better,i think Baki deserves better,i would very much like to see improved animation quality and just overall presentation in the next season,the only reason im even giving a 8 is because i love this series but more importantly i want too support the anime with a good score to get another season.
