Baki Watching Order Guide

This is the best Baki watch order because it follows the chronological and logical order of the manga and the Anime. The Baki anime series has six seasons and two OVAs, which adapt the first three parts of the manga. It shows the progression of Baki’s character and his journey to become the strongest fighter in the world. Watching it this way will help you avoid confusion about certain characters and plot points! Here’s a detailed explanation of the watch order:
1 Baki the Grappler

Baki the Grappler

This is the first season of the first anime adaptation of the manga. It covers the first part of the manga, which introduces Baki and his quest to surpass his father Yujiro.

The anime follows the events of the manga in chronological order, starting with Baki’s childhood and teenage years, and then moving on to his championship reign in the Tokyo Dome Underground Arena. The anime also adds some extra scenes that were not shown in the manga, to connect the story with the second part of the manga.

2 Baki the Grappler: Maximum Tournament
