Fist of the North Star/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • The scene where Ken destroys a freaking tank with his bare hands (well feet) Must be seen to be believed.
  • In the second storyline Kenshiro taking a huge chunk of out of a hill to plug a breached dam that was blown up by three mooks of Yuda (as high of the dam) and bitch-slapping two mooks who blew up the dam with it (after causing the Elite Mook leader of the group to asplode a short while before) then plugging the breach with said chunk of hill. See the Crazy Awesome entry above for a 3rd example.
    • This was only a background event to Rei's epic showdown with Yuda.
  • When Kenshiro, Rei, and Mamiya team up, Kenshiro takes a nap, while Mamiya questions his choice to nap at a time like this. Suddenly, Kenshiro snaps awake reaches out to the side and catches a flying arrow headed straight for Mamiya's head.
  • Juza's last stand against Raoh. It's even more awesome in the anime where his body keeps fighting until all of his blood starts to spill out, reflecting the clouds above in a big pool.
  • The Hokuto Hyakuretsu Ken. Enough said.
    • The scene in question from the vid, where Kenshiro rescues Lin from Zeed, is the first time that he busts out this move in the series, and it definitely qualifies as one of the first awesome moments of the series, as it establishes in a big way just what Kenshiro and his style of Hokuto Shinken can do.
  • Get up, Raoh! It's time for you to return to heaven!
  • The first time Ken and Raoh confront each other. The first hint that Raoh is unlike anyone Ken ever faced is that he is an excellent practitioner of Hokuto Shinken. The second? The battle starts off with Ken and Raoh's spirits charging up and creating enough force to only... blow the two of them high up in the sky and start fighting there!
  • OF THIS LIFE, I HAVE NOT, A SINGLE REGRET!
