    Default Kengan Ashura : How do these guys compare to Grappler Baki?

    Only saw a little bit on Netflix but stopped because the animation style was so atrocious.. but the premise seemed good.

    How does this universe compare to Baki?

    I would say that Kengan is overall weaker than Baki. Some characters in Baki could solo the whole verse.

    Also I would definitely recommend the Kengan manga.

    Yeah, I'd say they're around Maxim Tournament Level. Which isn't a knock against them, there were some tough guys in that tournament, they're just not on the level of the higher end fighters.

    I agree that they are around there. I can think of some cool matchups.

    Lol Retsu is the man. He just fights out of his class sometimes.

    Yeah all joking aside, his fight with Baki during the tournament is still one of my favorite throwdowns in the series.

    Freaking throat kicks man!

    Yeah that fight was legit.

    I still can’t believe he bodied Katsumi like that.

    Agree with you guys they are generally below Baki-verse from what I've read of it.

    Rei, the lighting user guy, does seem as fast as anything I've seen of Baki though.

    I’d put Rei around 13 year old Baki speed wise.

    Nah Hanayama has too much strength and durability for him.
