That salute can't be a coincidence, right?

Also, my favorite Obama appearance in a manga is Gamble Fish. He goes toe to toe with the main villain in a game of Russian Roulette.

Even as a Trump voter, I find that Trump freaky but that muscular guy is creepier. Oh, I have to agree that Trump has messed-up hair.

Not sure if Trump's cameo will make Baki a great manga again, or so some of his fanboys may think. . . . .

So much material in the making for manga and beyond. This is going to be an interesting time.

Already deleted a handful of ignorant insults/rude ranting posts. We are not going to go down that route. Keep it on topic and civil or this will get locked very quickly given the topic. Thank you.

Aww, don't worry about it.

Trump has "many many" good ideas on what to do with Baki and his folks and has "billions and billions" of dollars to work with.
Hell, he can make a wall all over him to protect himself. He's gonna make it "YUUUGE."
No, I did not vote for him or Clinton.

Damn, this is one good plot twist to add. I saw the outrageous Baki anime and it was really hilarious with them adding real-life characters into the fray. Still, regardless of this addition, I think Baki will remain irrelevant to most readers. Hardcore fans are smiling though.

That one-page joke ecchi manga starring Barron Trump and his step-sister/mom drawn up by that one mangaka is the most amusing one I've seen so far. Fujos seems to like Barron a lot.

I'm just waiting for Baki to grab him by the crotch and pass it off as locker room talk. Rolling Eyes

I have to say that it's amazing of Itagaki that he took the chat Obama had with Trump and made it into his story, remember a week ago Trump had a talk with Obama and supposedly left shocked or whatever?

Well having read the chapter I can say that it pretty much goes like that, Obama tells Donald about the "secret" of America, they must not anger Yujiro because even if they sent their entire military everyone would just die(it's been a thing since forever). Donald mentions that the moment they started this thing to suck it up to one guy must have been the moment "America stopped being great".


But honestly this was to be expected, remember that time Baki kidnapped Bush and took him to drink tea because he wanted to go to jail?

Baki has like 70 million copies in print not to mention the money he gets from other things.

I don't know what you're talking about with most readers but I doubt Itagaki cares, he's been a famous mangaka for a really long time now and he doesn't limit himself to manga.

It's not like he did this to get westerners to read it, he always mocks the US. Yujiro's hobby is mocking US presidents, Jesus they have a contract so that he doesn't kill everyone

I was waiting for ANN to report this lol, I pissed myself laughing when I first read the chapter. Yeah, mocking US presidents is a pastime for the strongest creature in the world, though out of all of them, Obama gets treated rather well.
