Netflix movie "Baki Hanma vs. Kengan Ashura"

The Netflix movie "Hanma Baki vs. Kengan Ashura", a dream collaboration between the "Baki" series and "Kengan Ashura", will be exclusively distributed on Netflix from June 6, 2024. It has also been announced that a talk event will be held at LOFT9 Shibuya in Tokyo on July 26 to commemorate the distribution of "Kengan Ashura Season 2 Part.2".

The "Baki" series is a hugely popular fighting manga by Itagaki Keisuke, serialized in "Weekly Shonen Champion", with a total circulation of over 85 million copies. The story depicts the battles of various fighters, centering on the deadly battle between Hanma Baki and his father, Hanma Yujiro, who is known as the "strongest creature on earth".

"Kengan Ashura" is a battle action manga written by Sandrovich Yabako and illustrated by Daromeon, distributed on the web site "Ura Sunday" and the comic app "Manga One". The story follows the encounter of a businessman, Kazuo Yamashita, with a mysterious fighter, Ohma Tokita, and his involvement in the "Kengan Jiai," a competition in which fighters compete for corporate interests.

In 2020, the two works were featured in a collaborative art exhibition, as both anime series are distributed on Netflix. In the September 30, 2021 issue of Weekly Shonen Champion, a tribute manga to both works by Sandrovich Yabako and Daromeon was published, attracting attention. After a long time, the two pinnacles of fighting manga finally meet in "Hanma Baki vs. Kengan Ashura."

In this work, the "underground arena" of "Baki" and the "Kengan Society" of "Kengan Ashura," two underground fighting organizations that would never cross paths, come together to depict a fierce and raging dream battle between fighters representing both works. Don't miss this "unprecedented shock" that will shake the world. Along with the start of distribution, the official "Kengan Ashura" X (formerly Twitter) will be holding a campaign where you can win a key visual poster of the collaboration anime, so be sure to check it out.

It has also been revealed that a talk event for the anime "Kengan Ashura" will be held at LOFT9 Shibuya in Tokyo on July 26th, ahead of the release of Season 2 Part 2 in August 2024. As the anime finally draws to its final episode, it looks like this will be an event for fans of "Kengan Ashura" to enjoy the series to the fullest. Ticket sales information and other details will be announced on the official X and official website at a later date, so stay tuned for further news.
