Hokuto no ken or Fist of The North Star

[Tsuyu]

Anyone else a fan? I am in love with this anime. I've just gone through a couple of weeks and I'm onto episode 108 and I think it might be the greatest anime I've ever watched. If by chance you haven't heard of it (and you probably haven't) the quick rundown is this:

The world is devastated by nuclear war á la Mad Max - in fact the series is greatly influenced by Mad Max from what I can tell. Enter the hero, Kenshiro

Who is the successor of the most awesome martial art ever; he touches people and they explode in a torrent of blood.

​

He also has a brother who dresses like Conan the freaking Barbarian and wants to conquer the world (and is equally good at poking people, making them explode). Also owns the only horse alive, I guess, because you never see another horse.​

​

So who's your favourite? I've gotta go with Raoh/Ken-oh simply because he is so badass. Plus, when it is time for his redemption he really steals the show.

108th episode I believe.

I like Bat (Or is it Bart? Subtitles tend to disagree with each other) for his car, but other than that I don't feel like he does much else in the series. He annoys me, lol. I still have roughly 40-50 episodes left of the original series, he might surprise me.

Lin (Again, maybe Lynn) I like. She's so cute. Speaking of her, whatever happens to her dog? I just realize it is totally gone from the show but I don't recall anything ever happening to it!

I liked Juda/Judou as well. Had me raging in tears when he died!

Aww man. I hadn't gotten that far! >_<

I just watched the showdown between Raoh and Ken. I had no idea what would happen next.

Ah well, lol

I'll watch it after I watch Full Metal Alchemist (Cause I am way behind on the times) but it looks epic bro!
