The second season of the high-octane anime "Bakido", which is based on the famous original work by Keisuke Itagaki, is officially set to be distributed exclusively across the globe on Netflix. Along with this big announcement, the creators have also shared a brand-new teaser PV and a teaser visual for the upcoming season, giving fans a glimpse of the intensity that is to come.

Currently, the first season of "Bakido" is already available for streaming on Netflix. This series basically depicts the deadly and bone-crushing battles between the world's strongest underground arena warriors. In the second season, things are going to get even more fierce as the stakes are raised significantly. At the start of the teaser PV, we see a very powerful Miyamoto Musashi, and Motobu Izo can be heard saying, "We have yet to see Miyamoto Musashi at his full potential." These scenes really show why Bakido is a must watch for fans of martial arts anime.

The teaser video also highlights the sheer determination of the headquarters as they try to protect the underground arena warriors from the overwhelming might of Musashi. Fans will be happy to see familiar faces like Jack Hammer, Gaia, and Pickle making an appearance in the upcoming episodes. There is even a highlight where Kaoru Hanayama delivers an incredibly powerful blow to Musashi, and some parts of the brutal clash between Musashi and the headquarters are shown.
