I guess hes every womans fantasy.

The stakes are winning/losing. If you don't understand the gravity of matches in Baki then you probably just have too much nu-male blood to understand why it sucks to pour your life/effort into something then be beaten at it. Its the story of warriors and their craft. I don't know what else to tell you honestly if you don't get it then you just have no manhood.

Nah I think it just has shit writing

I'm pretty sure Kureha's just experimenting on him at this point

>Fuck Jack
well, fuck you too. Not that Baki doesn't get some ghost bullshit free "get stronger" card every few chapters, while he doesn't even train that hard anymore. Last time he pushed himself was dabbing on Shiba with his eyes.

Baki's fights themselves never feel like they have any stakes but the rest of the fights do imo

(checked)
I think outside a few instances, Baki generally has the weaker fights in the series. Especially in a situation where multiple people fight the same person so it's easier to compare. But even during the convicts arc or the Kaioh tournament Baki was the snooze-fest and everyone else was so much more interesting.

bro what? baki vs pickle is one of the best fights in the series
