“Baki Manga Stuns Fans with Elon Musk & Donald Trump Lookalikes in Wild Scene!”
The latest chapter of Baki Rahen, part of the Baki the Grappler series, has set social media on fire with the appearance of two characters who bear a striking resemblance to Tesla CEO Elon Musk and former U.S. President Donald Trump.
Why Is Everyone Talking About Baki Rahen Chapter 39?
In this jaw-dropping chapter, Yujiro Hanma, Baki’s half-brother, confronts the Musk and Trump lookalikes in an intense scene that has left fans both shocked and amused. According to translations, Yujiro warns them:
“If you two idiots’re just gonna keep doin’ whatever you want like this, then… I’ll r**e the both of you!”
This kind of outrageous dialogue is nothing new for Baki fans, as the manga is known for its over-the-top characters and absurd scenarios. However, the inclusion of these real-world-inspired figures has taken the internet by storm, with fans calling it “exactly what you’d expect” from the unpredictable series.
The Legacy of Baki and Its Famous Inspirations
Created by Keisuke Itagaki, Baki the Grappler follows Baki Hanma, a teenager training to become the ultimate fighter in a brutal, no-rules combat sport. Since its debut in 1991, the Baki series has never shied away from drawing inspiration from famous figures. The current installment, Baki Rahen, which began in August 2023, shifts the spotlight to Baki’s half-brother, Jack Hanma.
What’s Next for Baki?
The Baki anime, produced by TMS Entertainment, first aired from June 2018 to June 2020, running for 39 episodes on Netflix. Its sequel, Baki Hanma, followed from September 2021 to August 2023 with another 39 episodes. The franchise is far from over, as an anime adaptation of Baki-Dou (the fourth series in the Baki saga) was announced in March 2024.
With Baki Rahen continuing to deliver shocking moments, fans can only wonder—who’s next to appear in this wild world of over-the-top martial arts? One thing’s for sure: Baki never fails to surprise!
