The Classics: Hokuto no Ken

Posted on 8:54 PM by AnimeFansFTW.com | 1 comments

AvatarHokuto no Ken, AKA Fist of the North Star is insanely awesome. It is a classic anime series that's about some martial arts prodigy named Kenshiro who knows a secret martial art in an apocalyptic setting. Now what amazes me is not the story, art, or voice acting, but it's the ridiculous techniques that Kenshiro and his opponents use. Now if you watched a lot of martial arts flicks or read some fiction on the topic, you may have come across techniques involving someone just using one finger to kill another person. That's exactly what Kenshiro can do and even more. It seems that he has endless amounts of ways to not only kill you, but turn you into dust. His attacks mainly cause you to explode internally, making your body blow up like a balloon until you burst.

Kenshiro is basically Bruce Lee on steroids, seriously. He even has a modified version of his famous yell. But anyway, what Hokuto no Ken showed me was that the classics are still win even if they are outdated. That's common sense though isn't it? I mean there are classic games that are better than new ones. I'll be looking out for some good classic anime to upload to the site, especially Hokuto no Ken. So, what anime classics do you like?
