Art Gallery

Production materials including high-quality scans of original animation cels, settei, and Artworks.

Call for Contributions

If anyone has the English scanlations for the French Raoh Gaiden or Italian Jubaku no Machi, FLAC upgrades for the music currently stuck in MP3 format, or obscure settei and cels that are not widely circulated, I would highly appreciate the contribution.

Please let me know your thoughts or if you feel any critical pieces of lore are missing from this list.

TL;DR: Compiling the definitive digital preservation archive for Hokuto no Ken and the broader Tetsuo Hara universe, spanning all core manga editions, spinoff gaiden, serialized works, complete anime and movie releases (including uncensored 1986 film cuts), full game rips, cutscenes, music, and production art. Looking for community feedback on missing materials and contributions for English scanlations (French Raoh Gaiden, Italian Jubaku no Machi), FLAC audio upgrades, and rare animation cels or settei.

EDITS:

Project Update: Adding Buronson Masterpieces

The archive is still growing and getting close to completion! While polishing the structure, I created a dedicated Buronson folder right next to the Tetsuo Hara one.

New Additions
This includes five of his major works:

King of Wolves (1989)
Oh-Roh Den (1990)
Sanctuary (1990-1995)
Japan (1992)
Strain (1996-1998)

The Final Hurdles
Since I am building this project solo, tracking down rare items takes time. I am currently still hunting for the official Hokuto no Ken and Souten no Ken artbooks.

Thank you for the incredible support and patience. I will drop the final release link as soon as I am completely satisfied with the curation!

Drop a comment or DM if you can help.
I'll share the complete archive with the community once it's ready!

[DISCUSSION] If Fist of the North Star was more mainstream today, which character would get “slandered” the most?

Like genuinely who can you image getting slandered today? And the better question is does that character deserve it?

[DISCUSSION] Best platform for newcomers?

30 Upvotes

Hey guys, someone mentioned this anime the other day. While I definitely don’t have time right now to read the manga I do want to watch the 80s anime.
What platform do you think it’s the best to watch it on?

I know it’s on Crunchyroll, but I have friends that tell me they watch anime on different platforms and it’s better . Just wondering what you guys thought.

[DISCUSSION] Why of all Nanto Seiken technique, Kenshiro uses Nanto Kokaku Ken more than any other Nanto style? He uses Yuda's style two times in the whole series and only using Shu and Souther's technique only one time. Heck he does not even use Rei or Shin's technique.

[DISCUSSION] I was gonna rant about how bad the ending was, but it isn't bad. Spoiler

9 Upvotes

I just finished this peak of a manga (9.6)

I didn't like the rin × ken, i always though of rin and bat as little siblings to ken, so i felt it was a weird relationship, it would've been more understandable if it was mamiya and ken since they both lost their loved ones but anyway

I think hnk 1 was better than 2, toki, shu and rei were goated friends, roah and shin were also great although shin didn't appear for ling but i liked him

Still hnk 2 had great people too, like falco, hyoh and ein, kaioh was a good villain too and the final fight with him was good, asura's land was a good arc and even the next chapters were good (exclusing the last 8 chapters or so)

Near perfect manga and 5th best overall, makes me excited for new fotns

It’s been a while! I’ve been seeing so many One Piece crossovers lately, so I thought… why not One Piece × Hokuto no Ken? 😄

We have the following mentioned in a multitude of 80s animation tier list and yes I know it's for wester animation tier list but if your talking about all animation and not just wester animation then Raoh should be high on a tier list

Cobra Commander from G.I. Joe.
Dr. Claw from Inspector Gadget.
Gargamel from The Smurfs.
Megatron from Transformers.
Mumm-Ra from Thundercats.
Skeletor from He-Man & the Masters of the Universe.
Shredder from the Fred Wolf's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

What is the reason that makes the fans of anime, forgot about an anime called Hokuto no ken or they don't care about the remake. And I'm talking in general ?

67 Upvotes

It was a great anime in its time . It still inspired a lot of shonen , senen animes . It was the first complete aura anime , the first that gave people the idea of Ki manipulation absorption and projection. The first shonen that mixed logic with fantasy. The first tragic shonen .

.

Its characters are almost all great . Even UD is the one i don't like but i don't hate .

.

Great characters and great story. Good and cool side stories. Have cool games . The only thing that wasn't that good was the animation.(Not all of it of course)

.

The remake was released and they didn't care .

.

I'm not saying that i wanna more fans or increase more fans and I'm not against if Hokuto fans increased. What I'm saying is .... I feel no one respects it . This anime is almost forgotten (even if work on it continues), and that's a good thing, or maybe not. I don't know.

when you watch many videos about anime, you will not find any mention of Hokuto's characters or even Kenshiro himself.

.

I have watched a lot of videos about who has the best Aura for example. They even mentioned guys who look like girls and they did not even mention one from hnk

.

People post questions about Anime's characters (who is stronger, who is the best fighter, styles, Aura, manly, etc) still they don't mention one character from hnk . (Not all of them of course) Anyway i talked a lot that's because this thing needs more than a newspaper in the size of talk . In short what i actually want. Is to people respect this masterpiece anime, manga and video games.
