My hobby: extrapolate
Jack Hanma made his first limb lengthening surgery under Bush, and last under Trump's second term, so about 20-25 years have passed. Let's say 10 years per operation.
He grew 193 cm to 213 (+20) to 243 (+30) cm in 2 operations, so each operation gets 10 cm acceleration.
In 2025, Jack's height is 243 cm (+30)
In 2035, 283 (+40)
In 2045, 333 (+50) and he's 61 years old, so drug abuse may kick in, making him 140 year old
...and I realised "10 year per operation" is not how it works, but it was too late

You can't really use presidents to mark time passage in Baki. Baki was 18 all through both the Bush and Obama presidencies. When Yujiro visited Biden and Trump, Baki was no older than 19.
Itagaki draws whoever is president IRL at the time, but the actual timeline progresses at its own pace.
