Deep beneath the Tokyo Skytree lies a secret laboratory owned by Mitsunari Tokugawa, the world’s greatest combat enthusiast. There, a forbidden experiment is about to take place…
Using cutting-edge scientific technology, the experiment seeks to clone and resurrect the legendary swordsman Musashi Miyamoto from his remains, bringing him back into the modern world.
Known as the ultimate warrior—the sword saint, the peerless master whose name embodies every title of strength and praise imaginable—Musashi’s return sends shockwaves through modern-day Japan, and soon, the entire world, plunging it into a state of crisis.
Baki, Yujiro, and the underground arena’s fiercest fighters—warriors who live solely for battle—are all drawn into this time-transcending showdown.
The ultimate battle to determine the strongest in history now begins…!!
Baki the Grappler manga series ran from 2014 to 2018 in Akita Shoten’s Weekly Shonen Champion with a total of 22 manga volumes.
