TMS Entertainment announced today that Part 2 of the latest installment in the Baki anime franchise, BAKI-DOU: The Invincible Samurai, will premiere exclusively worldwide on Netflix on Thursday, June 18, 2026. Based on the manga of the same name by Keisuke Itagaki, all twelve episodes (Episodes 14–25) will drop simultaneously, continuing the story as the strongest fighters of today face off against the greatest swordsman in history, Musashi Miyamoto.
The focus of this upcoming Part 2 is reflected in the franchise’s newly revealed key art. Musashi draws his blade against the backdrop of some of the most cunning and lethal fighters in the series, including the classical martial artist Izo Motobe, the prehistoric warrior Pickle, Kaoru Hanayama, and the titular Baki himself. Behind them stretches Chisougahara, the “Plain of Feasts,” a lavish banquet that symbolizes Musashi’s uncanny ability to perceive the “value” each opponent can bring him, and underscores that for these warriors, combat is as vital as food and drink.
Part 1 of BAKI-DOU: The Invincible Samurai is available in its entirety on Netflix for viewers who want to catch up on the iconic martial arts anime, and witness some of the best fights the medium has to offer, before the Part 2 premiere. Will Musashi’s legendary status as the pinnacle of strength endure, or will these fighters prove to be a cut above the legendary swordsman? Find out when the death battles continue in Part 2 of BAKI-DOU: The Invincible Samurai on June 18, only on Netflix!
BAKI-DOU is described as follows:
Deep beneath the Tokyo Skytree lies a secret laboratory owned by Mitsunari Tokugawa, the world’s greatest combat enthusiast. There, a forbidden experiment is about to take place…
Using cutting-edge scientific technology, the experiment seeks to clone and resurrect the legendary swordsman Musashi Miyamoto from his remains, bringing him back into the modern world.
Known as the ultimate warrior—the sword saint, the peerless master whose name embodies every title of strength and praise imaginable—Musashi’s return sends shockwaves through modern-day Japan, and soon, the entire world, plunging it into a state of crisis.
Baki, Yujiro, and the underground arena’s fiercest fighters—warriors who live solely for battle—are all drawn into this time-transcending showdown.
The ultimate battle to determine the strongest in history now begins…!!
