    Predictable and underwhelming

    It was a cliche ending that you could see happening before the film dropped, it had the potential to be so much better than it was but it just leaves you feeling empty, it was absolutely average, entertaining enough to watch but felt rushed as though they didn't have enough run time to make something as epic as they could have. We can only hope for a part two that makes this one seem better. There were some epic moments that could have been developed into something amazing but it just feels like the ball was dropped even though there was so much hype and anticipation around the show. As mentioned a part 2 to tie the two together would be its only saving grace in my opinion.

    Didn't live up to my expectations

    I'm a fan of both the Baki and the kengan anshura anime. But both are very different in style, so I wasn't sure if a crossover would work. And I feel a show, series, would have worked better than a hour movie. Like how the normal shows are set up. They spend several seasons on one tournament. Several episodes on one fight. And now they did 4 fights in an hour. Just felt less epic. No matter how good the fighting was. Also i would have liked for them to use the more raw animation style of kengan, than the more polished style of baki. Still worth the watch! And i hope they will make a part 2 soon.

    Failed to entertaining unike the shows

    Baki Hanma and Ohma Tokita, the film's two main characters, both want to be the strongest man for their own reasons. They finally have a chance to confront one another in a tournament.

    As I watched both shows-all of Baki's and Kengan Ashura's-I had great hopes and enjoyed them all. With scenes that incorporated characters from both programs and connected them to backstory, the film got off to a strong start. It was entertaining to watch the fights. However, the story was just passably good, and the cinematic adaptation was subpar. The fact that Baki and Ohma's match ended in a tie would have been advantageous because it prevented one show from being held concurrently, but it would have been handled differently.

    The animation appears Although Kengan Ashura was created in 3D, I am happy they chose to use 2D animation. Although Kengan Ashura is an excellent program, the 3D animation is the one thing that bothers me about it. The English dub voice acting was good. It had good music.

    To sum up, I am dissatisfied with this film because it was not up to the both shows as they were entertaining to me.

    The safest play in anime

    There was an opportunity here for one of the best crossovers in all of anime but instead they decided to take the safest route possible. Which, when you think about it is probably the worst crime of them all. Especially with a show like Baki where they are know for pushing the boundaries and shocking readers and watchers at every turn.

    At the end of the day this is just a fan service crossover. I will admit it was cool to see characters from each series interact with one another. But besides that. The fight had no suspense and were predictable, the animation was subpar, and what was the deal with the voice acting?

    I liked the movie and I longed for an anime movie like this, and it remains my personal opinion

    Is an exhilarating, high-octane experience that brings together two of the most iconic fighters in the anime world. The film presents a clash of titans-each representing their unique universe-delivering an action-packed story with intense combat sequences and an undercurrent of rivalry that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

    The animation is striking, bringing the fierce battles to life with detailed, fluid movements that capture the raw power and precision of each fighter. Every moment feels impactful, with the choreography perfectly capturing the essence of both series-brutal yet calculated, showcasing the unique fighting styles of the characters. The pacing is relentless, keeping the energy high throughout the movie without ever losing momentum.
