Takin' it waaay back

Fist of the Northstar is one of the very first anime that I saw. And it's one of the biggest reasons I'm into anime today. This is a great start for anyone new to anime who cherishs blood and guts with a cheesy story.
It has a decent enough story but it's the over the top violence that sells this one. Nobody I know even cares to remember the story. The battles were the bloodiest I ever seen at that time and up to today there's few that can match this one. The main character Ken practices a martial art that completely obliterates his enemies and there's others like him. The fights are furious and vicious. Most action buffs will eat this up. I will admit that this movie needs to be remastered.
This anime came out at the perfect time. The old style gritty animation and soundtrack fits this movie perfectly. This is still one of the most talked about action anime ever. This isn't for the types looking for a very deep thought driven story. Don't come into this looking for Miyazaki. Expect Ninja Scroll type killin's. But not the small bit of fan service. It's non existent here. |
