    Synopsis:

    Five notorious criminals, each driven by an insatiable hunger for true challenge, find themselves unexpectedly united. Forced from their confinement by the enigmatic Mitsunari Tokugawa, they are brought together in a brutal contest of skill and will. Tokugawa’s proposition is simple: a five-on-five battle against Baki Hanma, a formidable young fighter celebrated for his unparalleled strength. This isn't a formal competition; the fights can occur anywhere, anytime, unbound by rules or location. The series explores the raw physicality and psychological intensity of these individuals as they test their limits against one another. Set against the backdrop of modern Tokyo, it presents a stark examination of power, determination, and the relentless pursuit of a worthy opponent in a world where only victory matters.

      This OVA is no more than a preview as listed in the synopsis. But it took just an OVA to get me interested in the manga until an anime is released (supposedly 2018?). After reading the manga the OVA really highlights the fight scenes in the manga. The story is about 17 (or 15 I don't remember) year old Baki and his fight to become the strongest fighter and beat his dad in a fight. When fighting there are no rules; anything and everything is fair game. The artwork from this preview seems similar to Drifters (aired Fall 2016). But that is about asmuch as you can get from this short clip.nnOverall, this is a short video that highlights the major fights of the manga. There is not much enjoyment to get from it, but it did get me interested in the manga itself. Because of this OVA, I am looking forward to when an actual anime gets released.

      Another Baki and another review I guess, and no, it's not surprising that they managed to fit in yet another strongest in their world in this finite short showing of the Netflix series. This was a hype AMV-like extended trailer that was revealed on the upcoming (at the time) Netflix Baki sequel, out of context, it feels harmless and not a big deal to check out, but if you're watching this back to back with the sequel then don't bother, or do, I don't care, it's your calling, most of the spoilers come from the first and or second episode anyway, so it's passable.
