When the parent-child fight starts, suddenly the ghost of my grandfather appears, flirts around, and makes miso soup.

It’s completely absurd, but it feels like it ended on a good note somehow.

At that time, I kept saying that I would settle things properly, but this is how it turned out.

Well, I can’t exactly defeat Yujiro, so it can’t be helped…

I like things like gathering around the dining table.

The Baki series is a martial arts manga, but I feel that the main storyline often isn’t about that.

Making toys out of parts while being slammed into a car after being hit by a dress.

I feel like I can’t draw that kind of thing anymore.

Thanks to my grandfather showing up, I took a hit from the dress and got seriously hurt. What did you come here for, Grandpa?

Yuu-chan, sweating and surprised by the large crowd, was amusing.

The Baki series concludes here, and afterwards it’s more like a spin-off.

It’s boring because I’m too strong… I’m glad that Yujiro’s wish to fight to his heart’s content has been somewhat fulfilled.

It seemed like you were really happy to get your abs hit after a long time.

Baki is a martial arts manga, and while all the characters are strong, Baki himself isn’t that impressive, and I think that stance sometimes creates a disconnect with the readers.

Is the supremacy of combat ultimately just a matter of killing each other? Is the one who kills stronger? I think it’s amazing that a different direction of answer, like a parent-child fight, was given to that proposition.

And then I thought, “Oh, the Tiger King here!?”

When I rewatched it in anime, it was quite good.

I wanted a bit more intensity in the fierce boxing, but on the contrary, it gave ample time to settle things with Yu-chan.

The part where Baki-chan tries to perform a Tenkonrenka and ends up walking while carrying someone on his shoulders.

I ended up crying when I saw Hanayama and Oriba arrive at the scene.

I like the part where the Coming-of-Age Ceremony begins.

I wish the part where the heel drop in the childhood chapter was lightly returned had been done with a bit more care.

It’s unavoidable because there was a backlog of things I wanted to do.

In the otherworldly battle, the abrupt conclusion with the Tiger King paying homage to air miso soup allowed me to re-evaluate the parent-child conflict in the main story.

Both believe they have lost, which is deep.

Since I said that love would be the theme, I’ve properly tied it all back.

It might be easier to progress the conversation by getting reactions from the audience, but it feels like a farce, so I wish they had either taken care to spread it out or performed it in a place that was originally unoccupied.

To be honest, I think I ran away from settling things with Yujiro.

I think it had at least a decent punchline.

The interim progress is just extremely thin and has a lot of waste.

To be honest, I couldn’t see any vision of Baki winning against Yujiro at that point.

Both sides could not secure a victory and are losers who acknowledge their defeat; I thought that the way of falling as a winner is an escape, yet I was impressed.

At first, I thought it would end in a vague resolution… but

Because I’ve been seeing various opinions here and there, I’ve somehow started to understand.

It ended up being a fairly enjoyable conclusion.

It’s not so much about the ending; it’s just that the long, drawn-out journey has lowered the rating.

I like the part where the strength in the beginning isn’t about military power but about sticking to one’s own whims.

It’s true that I can’t let Yujiro be defeated.

I just saw Hanma Baki creating a thread on the bulletin board for the first time…

No matter how far it goes, it’s just a parent-child quarrel, so it feels like we’re searching for a place to reconcile.

Compared to my beloved, the strongest might be a topic we’ve talked about regularly.

Then there’s Jiraiya and Oliva.

I can do it too!

I was surprised to hear that the reason miso soup is salty is because it contains the tears of a murdered wife.

Yuujiro is the strongest.

Baki seeks victory.

The punchline that everyone offered their most important thing is quite clever.

The part about the mural and Yuichiro is too mysterious.

If you keep bringing up the motif of the child surpassing the parent, then I think that’s not reconciliation but rather a complete resolution in the form of an outright defeat.

There were many developments that made me think, “What the heck is this?”

I think the fact that we went through a parent-child fight like that should be valued as much as the side story.

The story about where winning and losing lie has been going on since the death row inmate arc.

For now, let’s settle it by saying that there aren’t wins or losses between parents and children.

I’m endlessly discussing where winning and losing truly exist.

When I rewatched the anime, I realized that before fighting, they’re saying they’re in love with Baki.

After knowing that he’s a rapist, it’s like, ugh…

What is that phenomenon where Baki has such a bad reputation in real time but is actually quite interesting when read all at once?

The story that I have continued for so long to win against my father.

Since both lost, it’s fine! I think that’s a pretty good conclusion.

I think it has come together nicely as a culmination of strength and wit.

I understand why Retsu’s boxing chapter received negative reviews, but…

I like the part where the coach, being urged by Retsu, squeezes out advice.

In the end, Yu-chan’s strongest belief that Baki is stronger than his father is a perfect reconciliation where they each concede their most important values to one another.

I wanted to see more of Re’s boxing.

As for the flow, I like the old man who seems to be easy on Baki.

Being the strongest is lonely, you know!! I quite like that part.

Baki’s attitude towards Yujiro might have been similar to Homura’s towards Musashi.

I recently read the continuation of the free parent-child quarrel that has been going on, and I thought it wasn’t as bad as people say online.

I guess it’s partly because I’m reading it all at once, but Musashi is so strong that modern martial artists don’t stand a chance… It can’t be helped since there are no skills or backing, but it was a bit sad to see Pickle rummaging through garbage and getting beaten up every time.

These days, it seems like there was a good assistant because the greyscale processing is at its peak.

I really like the punchline of parent-child fights.

If my veins are protruding this much, won’t it be a big problem if they burst during a fight…?

I quite like boxing when it’s just by itself.

Just do it in a side story instead of putting it in the main story.

The Musashi chapter is mostly enjoyable except for the part where it ended with the old woman’s kiss.

Ending with an old woman’s kiss is just normal, right? I think it’s a no-go.

Musashi has a tough and disjointed story structure.

It’s not as much as sumo, but…

Air miso soup was initially viewed negatively but has gradually gained support.

When following a series, it feels like a long battle has been abruptly interrupted, doesn’t it?

I wonder if Jack is digging deeper now because he had some thoughts about how it was handled in the main story.

It’s not that I’ve been going through terrible times all the time; occasionally, I break the flow that everyone is subjected to, but somehow there’s this image of me being weak, right?

Isn’t it more interesting to explain how strong Baki is at that size soon?

Of course, if it ends with miso soup in a fighting story, people would be angry.

The Musashi arc had a terrible downgrade festival for the superhuman strength characters, and despite that, Hanayama’s protection was amazing.

Even if Musashi’s loneliness is mentioned, it feels off when you consider that a primitive person, who can’t even communicate, is somehow coexisting with society in their own way.

Well… back then I definitely thought it was annoying, but looking back, it was a proper ending for a parent-child story. It was a conclusion that I could come to terms with.

Since Baki-chan fought until she could no longer stand.

Baki has struggled and fought with the question of what his father means to him.

I don’t understand~ I don’t know anything about my father~ I want to start properly as a father and son~ Let’s eat, old man~ Today, I’ll leave the housework to you, so please take care of it~ I’ve reached that state of mind.

Yuu-chan doesn’t understand~ I don’t know what a father does~ I tried to play the part of a proper parent and child, but it didn’t go well~ Let’s eat, Baki~ You’re the main dish, you know~
