The strongest characters in the Baki Hanma vs. Kengan Ashura film gathered to fight in a three-match competition organized by the 13th head of the Tokugawa family.

From Baki Hanma to Tokito Ohma, the characters fight in a new underground arena!

Everyone has what it takes to stand in the arena and face their opponent, who could test their limits and force their potential. But who stands at the top?

Spoiler Warning: This article includes spoilers for the Baki Hanma vs. Kengan Ashura film, so proceed with caution.

  1. Saw Paing Yoroizuka

    Saw Paing Yoroizuka, also known as the Howling Fighting Spirit from Myanmar, stands at 6 feet tall and weighs 194 pounds.

    He is a ferocious fighter who confronts his opponents head-on. He can deliver rapid punches and kicks that can break anyone's bones.

    He can also launch a barrage of blows, leaving no opportunity for retaliation, which is always effective for him.

    He can also engage in a fistfight without backing down due to his endurance and Lethwei training, which allows him to strengthen every part of his body, including his head!

    Don’t even think about challenging Saw Paing to a headbutt competition for it’ll mess your head.

    The best thing about him is that he refuses to lose and will always find ways to counterattack his opponents.

  2. Kaoru Hanayama

    Kaoru Hanayama is the second-in-command at the notorious Hanayama Group. It is said that he’s number one when it comes to the rankings of Japanese brawlers.

    He has monstrous strength and power, allowing him to send his opponents flying with a single punch or kick in the face.

    He is a genuine monster with exceptional natural abilities that allow him to defeat almost every opponent he faces, just like a beast.

    In his fight with Saw Paing, Hanayama made it difficult for his opponent to come back at him. He has a terrifying technique called the vice grip that exposes his opponent’s muscles, tearing down their skin in the process.

    Hanayama also has incredible endurance, as he can resist Saw Paing’s headbutts multiple times with his broken fingers forced into a fist.

  3. Jack Hammer

    Through extreme doping and unorthodox training, Jack Hammer attained the ultimate physique.

    He has undergone numerous surgical procedures and used artificial growth treatments to become stronger than anyone else.

    Despite some people, including Raian Kure, telling him he’s a fake, he doesn’t care at all. All he cares about is surpassing stronger opponents as if he were born as a pure fighting machine.

    In battle, Jack Hammer can dish out one big punch or kick after another, even after taking his opponent’s attacks head-on.

    Surprisingly, Jack Hammer can also change his body to max out his form, from being too muscular to being fit.

    He has a habit of biting his opponents, so they should be wary of his sharp and strong teeth!

  4. Raian Kure

    Raian Kure is known as the taboo descendant of the Kure Family, a dynasty of assassins.

    He is the strongest in his clan, engineered as a warrior even before his birth, as he is a result of the Kure Family’s selective breeding program, which blends superior genes from outside the clan into their bloodline.

    Unlike other fighters on our list, Raian is incredibly arrogant and has a habit of trash-talking his opponents, especially those he thinks are weaker than him.

    When he’s fighting, Raian throws quick punches that could get faster by the second, even though his opponent’s raining a barrage of blows on him.

    Similar to the others, Raian can also send someone flying with his kicks and punches. He also makes sure to crash his opponent as a form of punishment.

    Most importantly, Raian can also use Removal, a technique that releases the brain’s limit on his body to enhance his latent abilities at a 100 percent rate.

  5. Tokito Ohma and Baki Hanma

    As much as viewers want to say Ohma is stronger than Baki or the other way around, the Baki Hanma vs. Kengan Ashura film has no clear winner between the two because of Yujiro Hanma and Kuroki’s interference, so we’re also calling our top entry a draw.

    Both Ohma and Baki think they are the same, even though they have different fighting styles.

    They recognize each other’s combat strength and wit and acknowledge their weaknesses and limitations, which make them the perfect match.

    They also know how to counter their opponent’s attacks in such a limited time, as if they were already used to fighting each other.

    While Ohma can use the Niko style and become metaphorically possessed by a god to release his latent ability, Baki has the face of a demon on his back when he’s fighting!
