heh heh.......2005-11-15

man this thing sucked. but it was sort of almost its so bad its good. horrible dub that that to no suprise cant be unintentiionally funny. grungy and ugly animation that seriously doesnt stand the test of time. zero plot,but at 45 minutes thats really no suprise.but for just a sort of "bloodsport" rip it works on a lightweight,lowest common doniminator level. with its combination of corny humor and over-the-top violence it manages to trigger a guilty pleasure type liking. yeah it's horribley dated.....but.....nah actually thats about it

It was the 18th Shinshinkai all-Japan open at Tokyos Buddahkhan stadium. It was a tournament open to all fighters, although it was mainly to showcase fighters from the Shinshinkai Organization. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a young fighter shows up at the tournment. He is a white who sunt other fighters to the hospital can you believe that.

it was ok, but more would be nice.......2002-01-23

the only real problem with this movie was its length. also, it wasn't too bad for a martial arts anime; fake martial arts, but not too goofy.also, some people were saying they wanted a sequel.the movie became a tv series in 2001, and on places like ebay you can find the series. seeya

FUN AND SIMPLE STUFF.......2001-09-27

I liked this dvd alot. Grappling Baki is a film that is alot of fun to watch because it is about a teenage kid who fights in an underground tournament and just kicks tail! When Baki fights he reminds you of Bruce Lee. He fights these tough characters leading up to the final battle against the most notorious fighter , Shinogi the Cord Cutter , and this final battle is pretty well done and it lasts for a decent period of time. I would have loved this film even more if it was at least 80 or 90 minutes long. The film is 45 minutes long but considering the context of the film I guess 45 minutes is fine and I appreciated it for what it was worth. The dvd has english and japanese audio , character highlights , and the animation style is similar to "Legend of the Overfiend". You can probably show "Grappler Baki" to a boy above 10 years old. It is fairly clean except for the surreal violence. Otherwise just about anybody could watch it. It is just about a kid who lives to fight and he fights the deadliest fighter in the final battle. THIS IS NOT "RAGING BULL" OK. If you just want a quick adrenaline rush and a very , very simple plot then this is the dvd for you. Short , simple , fun stuff.

lousy.......2001-02-21

This movie is the apitimey of fighting anime and I strongly beleive that at the absolute max you should rent this otherwise DO NOT BUY THIS IT IS 45 MINUTES!!!!!But if you you can borrow it from a freind it would be good for a quick adreniline rush type fighting anime. But its horrible plot and lenght are its 2 worst factors.The animation is fair and the fights are decent.
