It's still seeped in realism. Just...a highly exaggerated form of realism.

Keep in mind, there's an arc where Baki removes carbohydrates from soda with his fists, and when he fights a giant praying mantis.

The praying mantis is Baki doing an uber-extreme form of shadow boxing, so it's literally just a mental image of a giant mantis that Baki is acting as though he's fighting. It's so intense that even the kid that Baki befriends & is watching everything going on starts being able to mentally image the mantis, because Baki treats it that seriously.

Yes, that sounds just about as bizarre (if not more so), but it's at least given an explanation.

Video is showing as Unavailable to me. Besides that mega excited for this, love to hear anything about more Baki.

They had to re-upload the video due to audio issues.

That's not even discounting the time they brought a famous samurai back from the dead just to fight him

Ah, but that's from the next manga series, Baki-dou (1). That's still three seasons away, should Netflix decide to ever go that far.
