Fist of the North Star (1984)

Hokuto no Ken / 北斗の拳

Information

Description

Once, Kenshirou thought he had finally found happiness after meeting his great love, Yuria. One day, however, his friend and rival in battle, Shin, of all people, unexpectedly overpowers him and kidnaps his soon-to-be fiancée. Kenshirou, defeated, humiliated and scarred by Shin, survives the betrayal and begins a journey to free his beloved and exact revenge on Shin. Kenshirou is the rightful heir to the Hokuto School and thus possesses considerable skills in martial arts, which he can put to good use in this hostile world – a world completely devastated by nuclear war and where conventional weapons have become virtually meaningless. The law of the strongest rules and those who master the martial arts become superior.

Still, Shin, the heir to the Nanto School, is not Kenshirou’s only hurdle in his search for Yuria. On the one hand, he has to deal with other followers of this rival school. On the other hand, he attracts more and more attention and has to deal with various cruel tyrants who have practically become humanoid monsters thanks to genetic modification. Kenshirou has no choice but to fight his way out. However, there is also his eldest brother, Raoh, who is subjugating more and more parts of the world and does not consider Kenshirou a worthy heir to the Hokuto School. Can Kenshirou survive long enough to achieve his goal and protect those he truly cares about?
Einst glaubte Kenshirou, endlich sein Glück gefunden zu haben, nachdem er seine große Liebe und bald Verlobte Yuria kennengelernt hatte, doch ausgerechnet Shin, sein Freund und Rivale im Kampf, verrät ihn. Kenshirou, von Shin bezwungen, gedemütigt und gezeichnet, überlebt den Verrat und beginnt eine Reise, um seine Verlobte zu befreien und Rache an Shin zu üben. Kenshirou ist der rechtmäßige Erbe der Hokuto-Schule und verfügt dadurch über beachtliche Kampfkünste, und die kann er in dieser lebensfeindlichen Welt auch gut gebrauchen – einer Welt, die durch Atomkrieg völlig verwüstet wurde und in der konventionelle Waffen praktisch bedeutungslos geworden sind. Das Recht des Stärkeren regiert, und wer die Kampfkunst beherrscht, gehört zu den Überlegenen.

Auf seiner Suche nach Yuria ist Shin, der Erbe der Nanto-Schule, aber nicht Kenshirous einzige Hürde. Er muss sich einerseits mit weiteren Anhängern dieser rivalisierenden Schule herumschlagen, andererseits zieht er immer mehr Aufmerksamkeit auf sich und bekommt es mit diversen grausamen Tyrannen zu tun, die dank genetischer Modifizierung praktisch zu humanoiden Monstern geworden sind. Kenshirou bleibt nichts anders übrig, als sich seinen Weg freizukämpfen, aber da ist auch noch sein ältester Bruder Raoh, der immer mehr Teile der Welt unterwirft und Kenshirou nicht als würdigen Erben der Hokuto-Schule betrachtet. Kann Kenshirou lange genug überleben, um sein Ziel zu erreichen und die zu beschützen, die ihm wirklich wichtig sind?
Texto de presentación:
Años han pasado luego de la Tercera Guerra Mundial. El planeta ha sucumbido al desierto y quien posea agua tiene el poder político y militar. La ley del más fuerte impera y las regiones débiles deben subyugarse, en una dictadura sin fin. Todos los ultrajes deben ser aceptados, quien se rebele muere a falta del líquido vital.
Todo cambiará cuando aparezca Kenshiro, un artista marcial con técnicas demoledoras que se enfrentará al poder corrupto con su estilo Hokuto Shinken...el "Puño Divino de la estrella del Norte", mientras busca a su amada Yuria, raptada por su antiguo mejor amigo.
