Baki The Grappler #2

This Perfect Edition volume of Keisuke Itagaki's *Baki the Grappler* opens with a striking close-up of Baki himself — wind-whipped red-brown hair framing an intensely muscled face, his piercing blue eyes narrowed with quiet, unsettling confidence. That slow smirk hints at a fighter who thrives on challenge, and the dynamic swirl of blue energy behind him gives the whole image a charged, almost electric tension. A beautifully produced 2022 edition from Meian that makes an excellent entry point into one of manga's most celebrated martial arts series.
