Before I give my review of this, I'll have to say something that many people are thinking: The original 90s "prequel" Baki was a fun time, when Netflix came out with a sequel continuation of the series, it actually made people appreciate the original series more and respect Netflix for continuing the Baki storyline on screen, regardless if they watched the prequel series. Many would have liked to see another continuation or spin-off of this franchise but Netflix decided to do a "What If..." reboot instead of giving old and new viewers what they want. Netflix thinks that their quality of production makes up for their lack of insight. Stop coming out with new shows and reboots and focus on what people actually want. People would rather watch 5 shows that they like and are invested in than 500 1 season shows.
Whether you're a Baki fan or not, it's a decent watch and interesting time. Watch it and take it for what it is. It still has the spirit of Baki, just not the story of Baki. It's a distraction piece that no one asked for but they will still watch. I'd love to give this a 1 star, just to tell Netflix to stop coming out with new horse****, but it's a quick and easy watch while you do other things around the house because the story doesn't actually matter and standalone it's alright.
Oh, and never trust what people say when they use exclamation points online....
