Baki Hanma vs. Kengan Ashura has put forth the idea of multiple crossovers in the future. There are several crossovers the fans wish to see, but there was no possibility of it turning into reality until Netflix’s latest venture. One of them is Goku vs. Superman, and it has been a hot topic of discussion for several years. The strongest anime character going up against the most iconic superhero is a dream come true for everyone.

Goku vs. Superman is as iconic as it can get. The former has defeated multiple foes who were stronger than him. His transformations help him to become stronger, and since he is a Saiyan, his strength grows after every fight. On the other hand, Superman is a literal God with almost every ability that a common man wishes to have. He can fly, has heat vision, superhuman strength, x-ray vision, durability, hardened skin, etc.

One thing common between the two is that both of them are aliens. One was born on planet Vegeta, and the other on planet Krypton. Their fight is like the clash of the titans. With the fanbase supporting their favorite character, there was never a proper conclusion to the debate. But Baki Hanma vs. Kengan Ashura has given the fans a chance to determine the stronger of the two.

Baki Hanma is the strongest high schooler on Earth, while Tokita Ohma, the protagonist of Kengan Ashura, is the successor of the Niko style. It has already been branded as the fight of a lifetime. The ultimate fight will feature Nobunaga Shimazaki as Baki Hanma and Tatsuhisa Suzuki as Tokita Ohma. The crossover between Keisuke Itagaki and Yabako Sandrovich’s magnum opus has taken social media by storm.
