If you enjoy this anime, congrats, but if you're reading this, I hope you expand out to other martial arts media


I have seen a lot of anime and a lot of martial arts anime and to be honest, there's not a whole lot of it. Kengan is good at what is does and there's only really Baki to compete with it and I enjoy both immensely.

If you just looking at pure fighting, combat and marital arts anime, there is not a lot besides the obvious like Baki and Kengan off the top of my head there is:
Garouden
Mou Ippon!
Abarenbou Rikishi!! Matsutarou
Hajime no Ippo
Ashita no Joe
Hinomaru-Zumou
Megalo Box
Bamboo Blade
Shuumatsu no Valkyrie

Can't forget Tekken, Street Fighter, Dark Stalkers Fatal Fury & Virtua Fighter series and all those video game adaptations of Fighting games.

Of course, there's 100's of battle shonen & chambara anime which have martial arts in them. BLEACH could be considered a "martial arts anime", but I wouldn't really count that as pure combat or martial arts.

So, there is really not a whole lot to choose from and a majority of them are good in my opinion.
