Baki Grapples with America’s Strongest Man in New PV, September Premiere
In the few years that Baki was absent from our lives, I had forgotten just how ruthless the anime is. The new trailer for its upcoming season serves as a fine reminder about everything Baki Hanma will bring, mainly a bloody and muscled saga.
Baki Hanma will serve as the finale of the series. Before Baki can face off against his father, we will see him testing his prowess against a fierce opponent.
Baki Hanma: Son of Ogre will premiere on September 30, 2021, worldwide on Netflix and is listed with 12 episodes. A new trailer with English subtitles is being streamed to give us a glimpse into who Baki’s next opponent is going to be.
Baki has entered the Arizona State Prison USA to challenge the strongest man in America, Biscuit Oliva. Oliva is a trained assassin of the US government who stays in the Arizona Prison.
Of course, Baki will be facing many more opponents in the prison because it is a hub of some of the strongest men in the state.
Baki Hanma Trailer Breakdown: All Upcoming Characters And Strengths
The trailer has highlighted some new characters and their cast members who have also joined the fray:
Character | Cast | Other Works |
Jun Guevara | Kenji Nojiyama | Yuto Kiba (High School DxD) |
Iron Michael | Yasuhiro Mamiya | Gigantomachia (My Hero Academia) |
Lips, Teeth, Tongue | Koichi Yamadera | Tenshinhan (Dragon Ball Z) |
Bob McCarthy | Masashi Ebara | Alastor (Shakugan no Shana) |
The opening theme song, “Treasure Pleasure,” by GRANRODEO has also been revealed.
Baki’s fight with Yujiro is still the most anticipated scene in the entire third season, and the Prison Saga will set up the stage for it. With less than a month to go, I am looking forward to the premiere, more than ever.
