Two Strikes arrives on Crunchyroll Game Vault with guest star Baki the Grappler

• Crunchyroll: Two Strikes is out now on iOS and Android
• Baki Hanma joins as an exclusive guest fighter
• Duke it out in hand-drawn 2D battles where every move can kill

Crunchyroll Game Vault is continuing to expand its offerings of great releases on mobile. This time around, it's the 2D fighter Two Strikes arriving on the service. And Crunchyroll are leveraging their history of anime streaming with an exclusive guest fighter as Baki Hanma of the titular series joins Two Strikes!

For those not in the know, Baki the Grappler is a bona fide fever-dream of a series. With every martial arts trope turned up to eleven, it follows Baki Hanma, the son of the strongest man on earth. Be it duking it out with escaped convicts, fighting a giant, imaginary praying mantis or an unfrosted caveman, the adventures of Baki are all the more ludicrous for taking place in the 'real world.'

Now, Baki joins the strategic 2D action of Two Strikes. In this black-and-white, hand-drawn fighter, you have only a tiny amount of health. The trick is to position, block and wait for an opening to take out your opponent in a single motion.

Son of Ogre

Baki is a fitting addition to this release, and one that shows Crunchyroll have been smart in how they leverage all the franchises on their service. While Netflix and Disney Plus may have claimed some top releases recently, Crunchyroll still remains the go-to for top anime releases worldwide.

More than that, Two Strikes is also quite the compelling release on its own. With a relatively simple concept that manages to work just as well on mobile as it does on any other screen!
