He was exactly like this in his fight with Katsumi, too. Besides, he's tried to attack, Jack is just always ready to counter it - and of course he is, he's been waiting for and fantasising about this moment.


If he didn't care he wouldn't be writing it. He's getting older, he can work at whatever pace he wants.
Sorry Itagaki, what I meant to say is between the story being wrapped up and everything since Dou being filler/ epilogue and the more and more frequent breaks I meant it’s obvious there either isn’t as much passion or deadlines aren’t as strictly enforced.

So sorry, I meant no disrespect to your bushido or whatever it is

Even by Baki standards, Pickle is doing a whole lot of standing around and thinking while getting fucking brutalized. Let the guy do something already.
Is there some type of bingo card system for Baki fights, let me just do some checks of things in almost every single fight

Combatant stands there like a total idiot while the other one let's loose an entire arsenal, check
Pickle imagines the other as a dinosaur, check
Narrator describes a technique as "the most powerful", check
Narrator wonders if character could measure up to a dinosaur, check
Characters wonder "how will pickle handle modern martial arts" as if every fight was his first fight against it, check
Chapter ends with a blood spurt, check
Announcer reminds us that Jack as always been a striker/ other characters say something along the lines of "wow he sure can strike", check

Possible future checks in the upcoming chapter
Characters comment about the specific part Jack bit (say Trap, Carotid artery, etc.) and how that's bad\
Random mob character retails the story of the fight to somebody else latter, with constant cutaways from and back to fight
Goudo is described as "more than just biting, it's a real martial art!"\
Characters cream their pants/ say something along the lines of "is he really even human?" when pickle does his lil transformation thing\
Characters comment on how "that was the move that beat x"

Any other potential boxes I'm missing? It is pretty formulaic

I’m of the opinion that despite how it looks Pickle hasn’t taken that much damage so far. Once he decides to lock in this’ll become at least a mid diff.
