The story of KPop Demon Hunters primarily followed Rumi, and her journey was the main focus. While Mira and Zoey were also well-developed characters with hinted-at backstories revealed through the music, they naturally received less attention than Rumi.

A new manga series, Baki Gaiden Doppo – Hitori Nomi Kui Aruki, has begun in Japan, spotlighting Doppo, a powerful character from the Baki The Grappler series. Doppo is a skilled, one-eyed karate master known for pushing his body to its limits in pursuit of strength. This spin-off takes a different approach than the main series, showing Doppo enjoying food and drinks at various bars and restaurants, both before and after his fights. While Baki creator Keisuke Itagaki isn’t directly involved, the manga is illustrated by Kenji Hamaoka. The series hasn’t yet been announced for release outside of Japan, but you can see the cover art below.

It might sound a bit basic, but the performance is impressive, even at a resolution of 1280×720 and 30 frames per second. The lowest quality setting is jokingly called “Potato,” but the fact that it only needs an older AMD FX 6300 processor, a GeForce GTX 750 Ti graphics card, and 8 GB of RAM is a significant achievement these days.
