# Where to Watch Baki

**Baki begins with five escaped death-row fighters heading to Tokyo because each wants to experience defeat. Netflix is the sole streaming service named for this 2018 series. Across 26 episodes, the show turns that challenge into a chain of brutal confrontations, where outrageous bodies and improbable techniques are treated with complete sincerity. It suits viewers who want combat to drive nearly every part of the story and who enjoy martial arts taken far beyond realism. The 24-minute episodes keep the pace easy to sample, but the escalating fights make it especially tempting to watch several in a sitting.**

## Synopsis

Baki Hanma measures his strength against a daunting standard: his father, Yujiro, is regarded as the strongest creature alive. A fresh test arrives when five condemned martial artists escape confinement and gather in Tokyo. They are not chasing victory. Each has grown tired of winning and wants an opponent capable of showing him defeat. Their arrival pulls Baki and other fighters into a series of dangerous clashes built around endurance, technique, and clashing ideas about what strength means. The premise is extreme, and the show presents every impossible feat with a straight face. Expect graphic combat and long stretches devoted to fighters explaining the logic behind attacks that could never exist outside this series.
