Baki - Exploring the Intersection of Sumo, Anime, and Manga
Things get pretty ridiculous in this episode as we examine the Sumo Arc of an anime/manga series that is currently one of the most popular and most outrageous! Bulging from the pages of a manga that has been running for other 30 years, Baki keeps the shonen genre fresh with its over-the-top story and art, and throwing a bunch of rikishi into the mix only built up that bulge bigger and badder!
We also discuss our fantasy sumo picks for the Nagoya basho in the most delightfully horrifying way we could possibly come up with, as well as the sumo team for the 2022 World Games. And don't forget! The World Games just started, and the sumo competition is set to start 7/9/22! Don't miss it! We found this link to a live feed on the Olympics YouTube channel that starts at 10:30am on 7/8, so we're sharing it here in the hopes that it's legit. Go Team USA!
