The anime adaptation of Keisuke Itagaki's manga "Baki-Dou" is receiving a second cour. As announced at "AnimeJapan 2026," it will once again be streamed exclusively worldwide on Netflix. Simultaneously, the production team released a teaser trailer and a new key visual for the second part of the series.
The teaser PV offers a preview of the further clashes between the legendary swordsman Miyamoto Musashi and the fighters of the underground arena. At the beginning of the trailer, Musashi is seen in an imposing pose, while Izou Motobe is quoted saying: "We have not yet seen Miyamoto Musashi at full strength." Motobe's determination to protect the fighters from Musashi is hinted at, as is the return of Jack Hammer, Gaia, and Pickle. The video also includes brief fight scenes between Kaoru Hanayama and Musashi, as well as the heated confrontation between Motobe and the sword saint.
The accompanying teaser visual shows the three main characters Baki Hanma, Miyamoto Musashi, and Izou Motobe with the Japanese characters for "slaughter," "rise to kill," and "protect."
Additionally, it was confirmed that the first cour (13 episodes), which has been available on Netflix since February 26, 2026, will receive a TV broadcast in Japan during 2026. Further details regarding the broadcast schedule are to be announced at a later date.
The series is based on the manga of the same name by Keisuke Itagaki, which was serialized in "Weekly Shōnen Champion" from 2014 to 2018. The story continues from the "Father and Son Fight" in "Baki Hanma" and deals with the resurrection of the legendary swordsman Miyamoto Musashi using cutting-edge technology. TMS Entertainment is once again responsible for the production under the direction of Toshiki Hirano. The main cast features Nobunaga Shimazaki as Baki Hanma, Akio Otsuka as Yujiro Hanma, and Naoya Uchida as Miyamoto Musashi.
