Profile of Hokuto no Ken

Hokuto no Ken can be described as rough, exciting, and suspenseful. The plot revolves around a future dystopia, a master warrior, and chaos. The main genres are foreign, action, and animation. In terms of style, Hokuto no Ken anime and features martial arts. In approach, it is fantastical and serious. It is set, at least in part, in the desert. Hokuto no Ken is adapted from a comic. It is well suited for a boys' night. Note that it involves violent content.

Summary of Hokuto no Ken

In the post-nuclear apocalyptic future in 199X, the human race has regressed. Weak villagers are reduced to slavery, while genetically enhanced giants rule the world. Gunpowder seems only a distant memory, and the martial arts is the only weapon a man can count on.

Two schools face one another in the battle for dominion: Hokuto Shinken and Nanto Seiken. The series begins when the Hokuto successor, Kenshiro, travels the desert to confront Shin, a member of the Nanto Roku Seiken, their six ruling stars, who has taken his fiancee Yulia.
