Itagaki’s original Baki the Grappler martial arts manga ran for 42 volumes in Weekly Shōnen Champion magazine from 1991 to 1999.
The official website for the new anime of Keisuke Itagaki’s Baki (New Grappler Baki: In Search of Our Strongest Hero) manga revealed on Friday that musical group DEVIL NO ID is performing the anime’s second ending theme song “BEAUTIFUL BEAST.”
The manga recently inspired an original anime DVD (OAD) adaptation that also depicts the “Most Evil Death Row Convicts” arc.
After the Baki sequel manga finished in 2005, Hanma Baki then ran in the same magazine from 2005 to 2012.
