In Baki Hanma’s first season, the fighter Baki — the strongest high schooler in the land — trained in a prison against fellow inmates, defeating a giant praying mantis and formidable opponents like Biscuit “Mr. Unchained” Oliva and Jun “Mr. Second” Guevaru. Now, Baki is back and gearing up to battle Pickle, a perfectly preserved prehistoric man so powerful, he once preyed on dinosaurs. If Baki can take down Pickle, his final matchup will be with his all-powerful father, Yujiro Hanma.

A caveman named Pickle, who’s been hibernating deep underground since the age of the dinosaurs, has been revived thanks to cutting-edge technology. A fighter who possesses out-of-this-world combat abilities, he has killed dinosaurs with his bare hands. Upon his return to the land of the living, Pickle quickly becomes a target for the scores of martial artists looking to prove they’re the best in the world — and the young, highly skilled fighter Baki is among them.
