Comments from Shimazaki Nobunaga, voice of Hanma Baki
—Can you share with us your feeling and enthusiasm after hearing the production of the sequel, “Hanma Baki – Son of Ogre”?
I am extremely glad that the sequel of the anime was confirmed as I am aware of the interesting future plot from the original manga. Especially the father-son fight is one of my personal favorite series in term of the process and the result, so I am quite looking forward to it.
—As “Hanma Baki – Son of Ogre” will depict the clash between Baki and Yuujirou, what was the most impressive scene when you read the original manga and also your anticipating scene in the anime adaptation?
There are various impressive scenes, such as the fight with Kamakiri, Maria, and Pickle, the True Mach Punch, the master, the air table, and others. But above all, I enjoyed the process of Hanma Baki and Hanma Yuujirou facing each other as actual father and son.
