| ♥♥♥♥♥ | A good series but needs to be fleshed out a little more. |
| New Fist of the North Star really is a great series. One thing to point out is that even though the title menu proclaims, "Kenshiro's Quest", this really isn't his "quest". He's merely one player in this universe which centers around the city of Last Land, it's ruler(s), and the people tricked by the Last land dictators.
Kenshiro does play a big part in taking out the baddies, but the story is much more setting-driven as opposed to Kenshiro-driven. Do you still get exploding heads? Yep! Actually, about 10 minutes into the first episode, Kenshiro manages to take out half dozen foes of the Last Land gang. Also the boss fights aren't fleshed out very well. They all (all 2 of them) last roughly 5 minutes. The fights here are much more martial arts driven unlike the original movie which the fights were more aura-driven. Overall this is a great and insanely graphic series that while could've been fleshed out much more, is a worthwhile edition to any Hokuto no Ken/Fist of the North Star enthusiasts collection. |
