I had high hopes for this anime going in as I really enjoyed the first two original seasons of Baki the Grappler.
Unfortunately what was originally an anime that focused on a single protagonist training to defeat his Father has been turned in to some sort of stupid drama where a large majority of Baki doesn't even focus on the main character.
Too many characters, too much dialog, too much stuff I don't care about. Gore and violence is mediocre at best. In a super cliched and predictable fashion the writers decided to focus on some sort of dumb death games concept.
Unoriginal, disrespects the source material, drags on way too long. Avoid this. Baki doesn't even look the same at all, when I first started watching I was confused and had thought they were a different character entirely.
In order to save money on animation they use 3D animation for a lot of the fights and it looks ugly and clashes in comparison with the otherwise (generally) acceptable animation. The 3D models look like higher resolution versions from something like budokai tenkaichi 3.
