Did you guys know it recently was licensed and is getting a proper DVD release now? I figure the video quality and subs will be a nice improvement over the old rips on the net.

There will probably be 4 boxsets. The group releasing it now licensed HnK2 as well, so that's like ~140 episodes total I think. Boxset 2 comes out pretty soon and covers all the way up to 72, totally worth it if you ask me. Definitely going to grab these when I have the money.

The voice actor for Kenshiro is also Ryo Saeba in City Hunter. Definitely a must watch as well I'd say, an excellent action/comedy/drama. He's a James Bond'esque kind of guy except with an extreme pervy side, but the show knows when to be serious too!

lol I actually uploaded this clip myself:

Hokuto no Ken was the first anime that I ever finished, so it has a special place in my heart. Though the sub I watched had horrible engrish translations... it was hilarious.

You're already dead.

There is a manga that I am reading that I -think- is by the same company that publishes the series. Not to hijack this thread, but it's about manly men who kill these super monsters, eat them, and gain their powers. Also, they take 50 pound shits.

No, I am not kidding. Toriko

If you like Fist of the North Star. You will love Toriko.

Anyways, I remember watching this show when I was a wee laddie. Didn't really like the movies though.

Or rather, Hokuto no Ken because I'm watching it in Japanese. Kenshiro is just plain badass!
