What Order Do You Watch Baki In

Okay, let's talk Baki. We all love muscles clashing, right? But where do you even *start* with this beast of a series?

The "Official" Order (and Why It's Kinda Boring)

Everyone says start with Grappler Baki. Makes sense, it's the beginning! Then Baki the Grappler: Tournament Saga. Followed by Baki the Grappler: The Ultimate Fighter. Yawn.

Next up? Baki (2018) on Netflix! Then Baki: Dai Raitaisai Hen. And finally, Baki Hanma. So... linear. So predictable.

My Wildly Unpopular (But Superior) Order

Hear me out. Throw the rulebook out the window! Let's embrace the chaos, baby.

First: Baki (2018). Yep. Jump right in. It's flashy. It’s got the convicts. It grabs your attention like a headbutt from Hanma Yujiro.

You'll be confused. Good! Confusion builds character. You'll be asking, "Who are these crazy people?" Perfect. Mystery!

Then, check out Baki Hanma. Get even *more* confused by Pickle. Accept the prehistoric weirdness.

Now, and only now, venture back to the *Grappler Baki* series. The old animation will feel...different. But you'll appreciate the origins. The struggle.

It's like eating dessert before dinner. Controversial? Maybe. Delicious? Absolutely. You'll understand the references later. It's a reward!

Why This Works (Probably)

Starting with the newer stuff means better animation! Let’s be honest, the older stuff…it's charmingly dated. But not everyone loves that charmingly dated feeling right off the bat.

Plus, the convicts are a fantastic introduction to the power levels. You immediately see how insane Baki's world is.

You'll be so hooked, you'll WANT to go back and learn the history. Curiosity is a powerful motivator.

But Wait, There's More! (AKA Disclaimers)

Okay, this is just my opinion. You might hate it. You might throw your protein shake at me. That's fine!

Some purists will scream about spoilers. But let’s be real, the plot is secondary to the muscle-on-muscle violence. You watch Baki for the fights, right?

Ultimately, watch it however you want. There's no wrong way to enjoy Baki's absurd, beautiful, and incredibly violent world.

Just promise me you’ll watch it. Because seriously, you're missing out on some top-tier anime madness.

Bonus tip: Embrace the hype. Hype builds muscle...or something like that. Happy watching!
