Hokuto no Ken Discussion Thread

Yeah, but it would be nice to have some of the actual anime music in the game or even have the original theme in there as opposed to a remix.

I don’t even think they have the opening intro in the game either.

Have the PS3 version so I can’t use custom soundtracks. Oh well.

So much emotion in that fight =(. It was like you felt Raoh’s pain knowing that his brother could kill him, but since he has been sick he wasn’t able to.

Manly tears were shed.

What ep. is the Raoh vs. Toki fight?

Episode 72.

Kenshiro is now selling scalp scrubbers - [media=youtube]Nedrm9IdK7M&feature=sub[/media] :rofl:

Does the manga show when Toki actually caught his disease?

The anime always implied that he got it saving Ken/Yuria but the Toki-den movie shows that he had it way before that incident.

Always thought that was a strange decision cause it changes that situation from a sacrifice to a ‘fuck it I’m dying anyway’ attitude. Saying that, the movie does explain his attitude of successorship a lot better.

Anyone got this version of the series?

I’m wary of ordering anime from ebay as I’ve been sold some series with really bad subs in the past.

I don’t usually trust Ebay…but I do know that Discotek is re-releasing the series in box sets.

It’s an obvious bootleg, but if you don’t care, go for it.

My personal experience with buying FotNS off of Ebay was not very good. The box set that I got had some real shitty HK subs, and the quality of the video was lower than the fansubbed stuff from Heart of Madness.

Do you know if the box sets are uncut? and if they’ll be available in Europe (UK)?

Raoh vs Toki: Episodes 71 and 72.

Toki’s Illness: He got it from the radioactive fallout when he was protecting Yuria and Kenshiro, the movies(and gaiden mangas) are a different continuity/original spinoff

They are uncut…but I don’t think they are available for region 1 yet.

It was so sad that no matter how much he tried to kill Raoh and the fact that Raoh knew that Toki was superior was one of the saddest parts. He was begging him to kill him but Toki just couldn’t do it.

For anyone who’s interested, the manga has been fully scan-lated. Up to the Toki/Raoh fight right now.

Raoh-Toki is definitely my favorite fight so far … only got about 20 eps left to go now
