With a new anime series on the way and an overall seemingly new resurrgence of interest in the,
Baki the Grappler, storyline; it comes as a huge surprise to hear that in
Akita Shoten's
Weekly Shonen Champion's 24th issue that the spinoff series to
Baki,
Baki Gaiden-Scarface, would be going on an indefinite hiatus. Releasing in 2004, the series was created by
Keisuke Itagaki and
Yukinao Yamauchi and released within the pages of
Akita Shoten's
Champion RED magazine. The series revolved around the character of
Kaoru Hanayama and ran till about 2009 with a hiatus between '09 and 2014.
Knowing that these hiatuses are something that is not uncommon for the series, it is probably best to get ready for quite a wait. With hopefully more news on the way; now comes the long wait for more updates. Until then, stay tuned for more info and look forward to the
Baki anime coming soon!
