Fans of the legendary fighting manga Baki (刃牙) have something major to look forward to: Ichiban Kuji Baki ~Kyodai naru Kodou~ will go on sale at retail locations across Japan from July 18, 2026, with online sales beginning July 21, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. Each draw is priced at ¥850 (tax included).

Created by Itagaki Keisuke and serialized in Weekly Shōnen Champion (Akita Shoten), the Baki series has surpassed a cumulative 100 million copies in circulation. The saga follows Hanma Baki, the youngest champion of an underground fighting arena, as he battles warriors from around the world — including his own father, Hanma Yujiro, dubbed “the strongest creature on Earth.” The series currently runs its sixth installment, Baki Rahen, alongside numerous spin-offs.

The lottery will be available at Lawson, Ministop, bookstores, hobby shops, Ichiban Kuji Official Shops, and Ichiban Kuji ONLINE.

Prize Lineup

Prize A — Miyamoto Musashi MASTERLISE!! (approx. 26 cm)

Miyamoto Musashi makes his Ichiban Kuji debut in stunning form. The figure faithfully recreates his characteristic hunched posture, the thickness of his arms, and the texture of his kimono — all under the direct supervision of Itagaki Keisuke. The sculpt radiates an overwhelming aura that seems to warp the very space around him.

Prize B — Pickle MASTERLISE!! (approx. 28 cm)

Pickle also appears in Ichiban Kuji for the first time, captured in his ultimate combat form — joints of the shoulders, elbows, wrists, and hips rearranged into a perfect battle configuration. The musculature is awe-inspiring, sculpted under Itagaki Keisuke’s supervision.

Prize C — Orochi Katsumi MASTERLISE!! (approx. H 16 cm × D 22 cm)

Orochi Katsumi joins the lineup for the first time, immortalized mid-strike as he delivers his Mach-speed straight punch. Supervised by Itagaki Keisuke.

Prize D — Retsu Kaioh no Munen Clock (approx. 17 cm)

Retsu Kaioh’s iconic “Guruguru Punch” — the technique he unleashed against Pickle — is reimagined as a clock, with Retsu’s arm marking the passage of time. A poignant tribute to one of the series’ most memorable moments.

Prize E — Bosatsu no Ken Blanket (approx. 90×60 cm)

Inspired by the endless string of “0.999…” that Orochi Doppo wrote throughout his life in pursuit of the perfect straight punch — the “Bosatsu no Ken” — this compact blanket folds into a pocket-sized pouch. A deeply meaningful collectible for dedicated fans.

New-edition cover art from the Baki series rendered as large A3 clear posters. All 10 designs are available to choose from.

Last One Prize — Retsu Kaioh MASTERLISE!! (approx. 25 cm)

Retsu Kaioh makes his Ichiban Kuji debut, posed as he confronts Miyamoto Musashi. Supervised by Itagaki Keisuke, this figure is awarded to whoever draws the final ticket in a batch.
