Not really a game. It's just a heavily abridged version of the manga where you tap QTEs.
Also fuck the Rei sections because the stylus and DS touchscreen are way too low resolution and thus imprecise to actually make those super precise Rei cuts work, shit was literally artificial difficulty.

How come Raoh only ever did this once. Is it cause this was the only time he was ever just completely backed into a corner, when Kenshiro had musou tensei and Raoh had nothing else he could do, so he does the "explode my clothes and make my muscles bigger" thing?

I'm assuming it's Tenryu Koukyu Hou. Which is the same thing Kenshiro does where he goes from 30 percent to 100 percent of his strength and roids out.
>>
>>377105637
>Is it cause this was the only time he was ever just completely backed into a corner, when Kenshiro had musou tensei
Correct.

And then Raoh unlocked Musou Tensei later that night and surpassed Ken. Ken even says that had Raoh not given his life force for Yuria, he'd wreck him. Simply because Raoh had a lot more techniques at his disposal and that combined with Musou Tensei made him far more versatile than Ken and his more limited set.
>>
>>377105349

It's more his proportions than his height in that pic that get me. His biceps are nearly the size of his entire chest. I mean, raoh is legit tall yeah. Raoh is listed as 7 feet, but also the japs seem to have a lot of shit way off about height and weight. LIke Fudo is only 7 feet and 5 inches and only weighs 595 pounds. There have been a few wrestlers over that weight in real life.
>>
>>377105794

But then they didn't even use anything. They just slugged it out.

Like I said, it's just styllistic exaggeration.
Kind of like Kuririn in Dragon Ball isn't actually a literal 3 foot midget. He's supposed to be only slightly shorter than Vegeta.

Ah, well you probably haven't seen the manga version then. That's entirely made up for the anime, probably because it looked cool. In the manga and all future adapations of it, it skips directly to them both using musou tensei and then deciding to slug it out instead.

Raoh valued strength over all else. Being good or kind means nothing if you aren't strong. Strength is the only honor and the only justice.

Supposedly Raoh secretly hoped that Kenshiro would surpass him so that a kind-hearted person could inherit the earth, but I don't know if that was something made up afterwards.
>>
>>377112028
Raoh basically wanted to conquer the land through strength to consolidate all power in one hand, then have himself beaten by a superior kind hearted but strong fighter (like Kenshiro) so that consolidated world could then by let into a new age.

I think HnK in general hits pretty hard.

WA GA SHOUGAI NI IPPEN NO KUI NASHI

Also reminder that the series was aired in full stereo audio, but the DVDs are low quality mono because Toei is retarded and trashed ALL THEIR FUCKING TAPES, including the ones for HnK and Dragon Ball, making the stereo audio for both lost forever outside of hands of private collectors that have recordings of original broadcasts.

But that's not what he said.
In fact, he wasn't already dead either. He chose sudoku out of honor.

Anyway he says "I, Raoh, need no one's help to return to Heaven", then he proceeds to press his pressure points, hulks out and literally punches his soul to heaven while uttering "WA GA SHOUGAI NI IPPEN NO KUI NASHI" (I have no regretes for the life that I have lived).

the things with Hnk is that it's not vulgar tier of gayness (yuda character was a satire of the flaming fag type) it's all about that channeled homoerotic energy into obsessive rivalry and bettering of the self and the soul through latent desire for your mortal alter ego. It's still super gay but the honour and strength alchemy of manliness turns the gayness into cosmic energy. Faggots cannot achieve this levels of awakening.

If they ever did a new ArcSys HnK, it would be fully 3D (but with 2D gameplay) like their latest games, but thanks to 3D it would have potential to greatly expand roster.
Problem is, Raoh's (and Kaioh's) VA is dead, Kenshiro's VA is retired and one of the most expensive in Japan if not the most expensive, Rei's VA is also dead and generally it wouldn't be the same.

The only way I could accept it is if they reused Raoh's voice clips from the PS2 one, got Koyasu as Rei (since he was a rather faithful replacement in Hokuto Musou) and Ishizuka as Kaioh (again, Hokuto Musou).

As long as they don't get the godawful Hokuto Musou VA for Raoh. They got the narrator guy from Kaiji to do it and it was so fucking stupidly off and unfitting for Raoh.

Ring ni Kakero is the first success JUMP had and it's the manga that shaped battle shonen as we know it nowadays creating 90% of tropes.

Hokuto no Ken itself is based on Ring ni Kakero and some of Kinnikuman(that's also based in Ring ni Kakero), pretty much everything it does was taken off from there just like pretty much every battle shonen we've had since the 70's.

It's always funny seeing westerners think that Hokuto no Ken is some sort of creator of battle shonen when it's just... not.

In Japan, Fist of the North Star was literally drowning in a sea of 80s magical girl anime and the budding high school SoL anime genre. The only reason most people don't know this is because only the manly anime came out west as the moe stuff was considered far to weird for westerners.

One thing I enjoy is that as relatively overpowered Kenshiro is, in part 1 he's not the designated messiah, what with Toki being the original successor and Raoh capable of BTFOing Ken at many points in the story including the end.

They don't deviate that much, aside from Season 1 of the anime (ep. 1-22), which stretches the Southern Cross arc with lots of filler. The manga lasts a bit longer than the anime though.

>I hated the whole Hokuto Soke bloodline shit since it practically made Kenshiro destined to be the Hokuto Shin Ken successor from the get-go and turned Raoh and Toki into glorified jobbers.
What? If anything, it made Raoh sound like the destined successor and the entire Kenshiro bloodline literally stealing it from him since Raoh's ancestor's mother didn't have faith in her own son and willingly cucked him.

>>377135305

>>
>>377134862
The anime is worth a watch but it's padded a fair amount, perhaps find a list of filler and exclude it from your viewing? The music and voice acting is pretty great.

The manga too is great, although if I have one criticism it's how the art evolved. I absolutely love the early art style, and then it gets a bit more 80s, beeflarge mchuge style which is fine, but loses a bit of its charm.

>>
>>377135378
>since Raoh's ancestor's mother didn't have faith in her own son and willingly cucked him.
Ryu-oh's mother (Ohme) felt sorry for her sister, who was dying from an illness and wanted to make sure her son Shuken wouldn't be sacrificed by the elders. And then Shuken went on to create Hokuto Shin Ken by stealing the secrets from the Seito Gekken tribe and killing all its practitioners.

Yeah I know, and I'm saying that if she didn't feel sorry for her sister and had faith in her fucking son and let him finish the trial on the mountain, then he'd come out successful. Raoh is literally from the bloodline that got shafted by its mother despite being the original destined winners.

Definitely the manga. Tetsuo Hara's art style doesn't really translate that well into TV anime, so a lot of the details got simplified
>>
>>377134862
The anime is what makes it for me. The first arc (Shin arc) is padded with a bit of filler and two antagonists that came after Shin in the manga are rearranged in order to happen BEFORE Shin, but that actually works better from storytelling standpoint, you will see it once you get there.

Also the music and voice acting are absolutely legendary and there's no filler after that beyond "recap" episodes after end of each arc before it goes into the next one.

Go with the anime, then read the manga.

>>

Not really.
Ken simply was channeling massive amounts of rage, and it's flat out said that powerful emotions like anger is what powers Hokuto Shinken.
Also if it was Ken fighting seriously vs Rei or Yuda he'd wreck them as well, so I don't see what you're on about.
>>
>>377135564
The art style evolves in the anime as well.
Early Kenshiro is smooth rounded face with tidy haircut ala Bruce Lee, while Late Kenshiro is literally Stallone with a lot of scruffy hair and chiseled jaw that could cut diamonds.

Everyone that's honest will tell you that the only area that the anime lacks in is Hara's insane amount of detail. People ITT compared Hara to Miura for a good reason, Hara was the best mangaka of his time and if it wasn't for his eyesight deteriorating, he'd be on par with Miura still, or even better than Miura considering his recent substantial downgrade when he went digital.
In terms of atmosphere and everything else, anime simply obliterates the manga.
That's why I'm telling you to watch the anime for everything that isn't the art, and then read the manga for art (where your memories of the anime should reignite the atmosphere when reading the manga).

Is the art of the manga comparable to JoJo? JoJo has some of the greatest art, and I heard part one was based on it, so that got me quite interested.

Early Jojo (before Araki became all metrosexual) was pretty comparable to Hokuto, albeit Jojo is a bit more cartoony.
>>
>>377139376
Early JoJo (parts 1-3) is basically a chinese knockoff of HnK art. It looks similar but isn't anywhere near as detailed basically.
And proportions are completely fucked in JoJo, while HnK had perfect proportions since Hara's eyesight wasn't fucked back then.
>>
>>377094059
Yes but for that the world now has JoJo, which is the same thing but with the homo times a hundred.

And that's what missing in a lot of Hara's newer works. His women are pretty anorexic now when they used to be a lot more voluptuous. Just look at how drew Yuria and Adult Lin for the newer editions of the HNK covers.

Like I said, Hara's modern art is pretty meh.
The detail is still there don't get me wrong, he didn't lose that touch at all. But his proportions are simply fucking GONE.
Also that thing is nothing, look at how Lin looks in Last Piece (the interquel chapter Buronson and Hara made for 30th anniversary about how Kokuoh lost his eye).
>>
>>377139804

Look, I love HnK as well, but trust me, some of the proportions in the manga were absolutely fucked for style purposes. The average "big guy" wasn't even just tall, and had larger everything, they just had ridiculously long legs.

We're not talking about characters being deliberately drawn with off proportions for styllistic choice, we're talking about the entire fucking thing (as in, literally everything) having fucked proportions due to Hara's destroyed eyesight with his eyeballs LITERALLY popping out of his fucking skull.

I know that there's bruce lee and mad max inside.
What else? Any anime/manga its based on?
>>
>>377141362
Mad Max, Bruce Lee, Sylvester Stallone, Acupuncture (Hara had experience with it prior to working on HnK).

Also there was this one monk that confirmed there is an actually explosive pressure point on the human body and it is related to the head area.
>>
>>377141495
What I mean is, was HNK the absolute first of its kind?
Fully dedicated mandrama and punchanime.
>>
>>377141742
As others before mentioned, there was Kinnikuman but it's a different beast than HnK.
Kinnikuman is a lot more cartoony and "shounen".
HnK is more like shounen-meets-seinen and focuses a lot on the manly feels drama instead of just beating the shit out of eachother.

Yet this point has never been verified by any competent teacher, plus it isn’t unusual to have exaggerated adjectives to describe the damage to vital spots. Whether Hara or Buronson ever came across this target in his reading I don’t know, it makes you wonder though.

PS game used the anime as source of its art-style.
Musou went for a more realistic, soft-shaded look not unlike Hara's colored art just with a dimmer and more realistic color palette.
Also, there are manga-accurate costumes as DLC for the Musou and I do use them for most characters (but not all of them since I like some of the new Musou designs like Toki for example).

480p (aka DVD quality) is the only thing you can expect for old media like this but it's perfectly watchable if you aren't an underage faggot.

The movies are 480p and 720p (480p for the first movie from the 80s and 720p for the other five made in the 00s). Do not be a faggot and don't start with the movies, they aren't meant for new viewers, they're only for old fans already familiar with source material. You will be lost and ruin the series for yourself if you start with them.

>>377143286
Yeah, Odallus is miles better than Oniken but it's more of a Berserk ripoff rather than HnK. Still, the bundle makes Oniken practically free

I'm alright with this, I was wondering if it was a shitty rip. Old series having standard resolutions makes sense.

Nah, it's sourced from a special Remastered DVD collection made specially for the series 25th anniversary, it's the best the series ever looked in SD resolution.

Also, Hara leaving Shueisha (the people behind Weekly Jump, the magazine that published Hokuto back in the day) to form a new manga company with his EIC didn't exactly help. Coamix have no clue on how to sell/distribute their stuff in the U.S. as well as Viz/Shueisha does.

Hokuto no ken is the story of a person who travels the land and gaining power through his allies. His ultimate goal is to defeat his elder brother who rules the land with an iron fist. With the power of his allies, he eventually dethrones his brother. But then he finds out that the reason he ruled the land with an iron fist was to gather resources and bolster his ranks with power and respect, to stave off the invasion of a great evil from a land accross the sea.

>Where does the '86 movie fit in this though?
Somewhere between HnK1 and HnK2.
Kenshiro finally getting the second shoulderpad in the anime (despite having it in the manga ever since he beat Shin) in HnK2 portion was direct result of the design being extremely well received in the movie, which is why they reused the movie design for HnK2 Ken.

But he didn't. Having a tragic reason for becoming an asshole didn't erase the fact that he was an asshole, which is why Ken killed him instead of sparing him. Souther could only be redeemed through death.
