Show = takes a billion years to watch
Movie = 6 pack and it's done

I know what I'd rather watch.

You know what man, this has been bugging me for 7 years, but I just wanna let you know, that the movie is pretty amazing. And I used to think the same as you did, when I was in middle school.

People talk about Akira and durr the animation, but the production on the HNK movie is really fantastic.

And that's, that's all I gotta say about that.

PS how bout them Italian uncensored parts tho right

I still have a soft spot for the movie but the TV show is amazing. You can't appreciate HnK without the mythos.

Also, the TV show is just chock full of Ken's dark humor.

The animation in the movie was fucking dope, my favourite part is when ken goes atatatatata and the wolf man is all huhuhu im made of metla but then he blows up, but that ending was weird with the holy loli.


You guys tried Paradise lost, its fucking fun.

Toki was pretty bad-ass. It's a shame they didn't even mention him in the movie. It was worth watching the whole TV series for that character alone.

ngl, when Ken sees Yulia again and Raoh slaps him on the back to get over there, that part always gets me.

Fuck Raoh.


If he lived in an era without a nuclear wasteland, he would've got his fists sealed. He just got lucky. What a dingus, wants to be the successor but doesn't even know the secret techniques. Then he goes and kills his dad.

Pre-nuked Toki is the only person that Roah ever backed down from in the entire series. One of the best scenes in the series.

No sir, NOPE, not the only one. Raoh was scared as shit from Fudou when he was a kid and as an adult he took a step back when Fudou stepped forward.

After reading through this thread for a while I just said fuck it and ordered the series on Blu-ray. Can't wait to waste some time watching. I missed a shit load of the episodes back when I was able to watch it years ago.

Damn, you bought something in real life because I bumped a 7 year old thread. Nice.

edit: for me, Fist of the North Star ends when Ken beats Raoh.

That's for the best. The stuff after that was lame.

I recommend that SD parody series though, it's funny as hell.

The series I've seen pretty recent. What I haven't seen in awhile is the movie. So I ordered the movie on Blu-Ray.

ahahahaha, yes yes, touche.

I have to say that Raoh is more or less a fucking facist and, despite my respect for him as a fighter, he really is a loathsome fuck who had it coming. The love some ppl have for him sometimes borders on whitewashing his atrocities at times and making him more of a saint than he really is.

Mongs do the same thing with Griffith, from Berserk.

The guy was a selfish piece of shit rapist, not to mention a literal cocksucker
