Don't expect big things to happen. On the other side this crossover was really entertaining, and I hope there is gonna be another episode, where we can see Hanma Yujiro fighting. Minor spoiler is that probably this anime is set before Hanma Baki beat his father, keep this in mind.A really big plus for me was that there was only a little narration the main focus in this episode were the figths. That's why I gave this episode an 8 instead of a 7. If you like Baki Hanma and Kengan... Ashura this is a must watch for you, I recommend it. If you don't like these kind of fighting animes you probably won't like this either. Reviewer’s Rating: 8 What did you think of this review? Nice0 Love it0 Funny0 Confusing0 Informative0 Well-written0 Creative0Show all Jun 6, 2024 While this movie was fun to watch, it was underwhelming too, and this is coming from a Baki and Kengan fan who defends these two shows more than I'd defend my children from a flood. The choreography was weak, all they did was trade blows and telegraph punches, the storytelling was at the level of that of a fan fiction, and the dialogue was just: "What a formidable fighter!", "He's a worthy opponent.", "[Fighter name], it's an honor meeting you.". Overall, not the best watch, but also not the worst, the animation was pleasant to look at and the fan service was effective (at least... for me), I just wish the outcome wasn't so predictable, but it looks like it is setting the possibility of a sequel, which I hope will not be as of a let down at this was. 6/10 Reviewer’s Rating: 6 What did you think of this review? Nice0 Love it0 Funny0 Confusing0 Informative0 Well-written0 Creative0Show all Jun 6, 2024 For someone who is a fan of both of these series, this was surprisingly underwhelming. I realize they didn’t have a lot of time in this short production to have strong fights that require some real thought on the part of the combatants, but they really just made this one a character showcase and left out anything interesting from the fights. Even the animation was surprisingly dull - both Baki and Kengan have done far better - and all the fights were forgone conclusions. Aside from the final fight, there wasn’t even much strategy. It was just meathead fights that barely made use of anything... aside from character power-ups and demonstrations of fortitude. We get the usual “oohs” and “aahs” from the crowd as well as detailed breakdowns of their fighting prowess that is, as per normal, more tell than show. That’s made slightly worse this time by the fact that some of those watchers could put up more interesting fights or at least relate their experiences to heighten the action rather than just opining on the fighters.Put simply, it’s an ONA that’s weaker than the sum of its parts. It lacks the fight dynamics and most of the visual flair of both series and leans into some of their more frustrating habits as characters interrupt matches just to end them awkwardly, and discussion of fights ends up taking more time than the fights themselves. It’s not bad, but it’s underwhelming and hard to recommend to fans of either show. Reviewer’s Rating: 5 What did you think of this review?
