Ep 2. The Ones that Squirm

Rocky Aoki, the owner of a large chain of Benihana restaurants worldwide, introduces his legendary but washed-up fighter son to our protagonist Baki. Baki breaks Ryuukou Yanagi's arms with kicks to prove himself to him. Yanagi explains to Baki his own journey to mastery of the "Poison Hand," which convinces Baki that Yanagi may be a worthy opponent after all. Yanagi gets arrested for assaulting Yan Xiao Li after the latter insulted his martial art and challenged him. As he is taken away, Yanagi hands Baki a poisonous tobacco from China and instructs him to smoke it when the time is right. Yanagi later breaks out of prison to find Baki at his school and fights him again, revealing the true power of his Poison Hand technique.
