Baki the Grappler (Perfect Edition) Box Set No. 1

Created by Keisuke Itagaki, Baki The Grappler is the founding arc of one of the most influential martial arts manga franchises in history. Seventeen-year-old Baki Hanma has trained his body into a living weapon with one goal: to surpass his father Yujiro, widely acknowledged as the strongest man on earth. His path leads to the Underground Arena, a no-rules fighting circuit where world-class martial artists, street brawlers, and death-row escapees converge to determine the ultimate champion. This Perfect Edition box set collects the first eight volumes of the original Baki The Grappler arc in a premium larger-format presentation, with a bonus shikishi art card exclusive to this release. The franchise has sold over 85 million copies across its extended series and remains visible to new audiences through its ongoing anime adaptation on Netflix. For readers of Fist of the North Star, Kengan Ashura, and combat sports storytelling, this box set offers the definitive entry point to Itagaki‘s landmark series.
