Damn, with a chapter name of “now, let’s begin” thought we would be getting back to anything of substance

Silly me ig <3

Fun fact about Baki Rahen: the title translates to literally "Around Baki", so one could reasonably interpret as all the characters around him, from Jack to Yujiro to Hanayama to Pickle to whoever, so in that context it makes sense to have Jack chapters, Yujiro chapters, maybe a Shibukawa chapter or two.

That said

Lot of Yujiro chapters recently. I'm not against them, reading a Mary Sue (or Gary Stu in this case) is great when its well done and Yujiro chapters are generally perfectly serviceable outside of things relating to being the only real man on earth but at the same time, c'mon Itagaki you got a whole universe of duders.

the funniest thing to me is that on her biopic manga, itagaki's daughter just draws him as yujiro so it's very likely itagaki sees yujiro as a self insert character

Okay?
Did Itagaki just have a cool idea for an action scene and want to draw it?
This is a shockingly aimless period for this franchise, and that's saying something.

this latest series of Yujiro chapters is a lot like those Tough side story bits that follow Kiryu, would love a crossover
