The official translations are up to volume 17 now, with 18 coming out January and 19 being the final volume.
As long as someone bothers to rip them we're all good.

I'm not too sad about that after part 2. If there'd be another drop in quality between parts like there was from 1 to 2, it's better that part 3 is never made.

anyone else excited for Baki son of ogre? i get most were reading just to get to pickle, but prison arc was pretty fun for the most part

what do yall think is Lu Tian's gimmick? i hope its super man syndrome because of the waka facial theory on top of him being built like Mr X/Nemesis but at this point i highly doubt it

Probably a variation of chinese martial arts

Will Teppu ever get an anime? I'm still waiting on a Shamo adaptation, or at least Holyland.

we already know that Liu, Lu, and wankoff are using chinese martial arts, but whats their *gimmick*
for example, Waka does karate as a martial art, though has Superman syndrome as his gimmick. Akoya uses police disarment/riot tactics as a martial art, but his gimmick is his reaction speed. Adam is a brawler and uses "hockey" as a martial art, but his main gimmick is his uber strong back

>Hagure Idol
Was the author an assistant of Itagaki or at least a huge fan of his work?
The tournament arc seemed out of nowhere but I'm considering picking it up in spite of the sexual aspects.

i started it last week. im honestly blown away by how good this is. Even with the sexual aspects of it, i often forget im reading something lewd just because the choreography and the characters are that good
>Was the author an assistant of Itagaki or at least a huge fan of his work?
every MMA author is at least inspired one way or another just because of how much Baki has in the presence of MMA anime. That being said, its an obvious yes, seeing with the dynamic poses and the flow of motion being very itagaki-esque

I have a theory. We know liu uses chinese martial arts from taiwan aka east china. Naidan is also from china but a northern province, the autonomous inner mongolian region. Maybe fei will use south chinese martial arts (south china uses alot of low stances). This would make lu use west chinese martial arts aka Uyghur martial arts. Also explains why he looks so different.

I'll be reading Hagure then, thanks for the info.

Wouldn't explain why he has blonde hair

Uyghur can have blonde hair

My theory is that the three demon fist's epithets connect to their fighting styles, and we know that Lu Tian's epithet is "Centipede", meaning that his gimmick is going to be kicking. On top of that he also has a very likely possibility of being a Gu ritual survivor.

Daro likes to use blonde hair on literally anyone for contrast purposes, so the hair is never a valid point for discussing a characters traits

Before he took of his mantle my theory was that he was hiding additional mutant limbs on his back

this is actually pretty solid theory. I like it
might explain why the cock ring triggered agito

The prison arc was the best arc.

I've only read Meguru and liked it a lot. I train myself so it was nice to see how (relatively, obviously irl you wouldn't progress as fast as Meguru) realistic the fights were. Wish they made an anime of it. Anything else I should check out?
