Fist of the North Star Forum

Is this Fist of the North Star Kai?  Because I'm on board if that's the case.  This show was surprisingly awesome when I watched a couple of the episodes.  It was interesting how much of an American influence the structure of the show had.  Most of the time in action Anime a protagonist has to struggle defeat the big bad guy(s), where as in American cartoons like G.I. Joe or Transformers the bad guys struggle to defeat the invincible hero.  Kenshiro for most of the show's run was depicted as being an unbeatable hero and even though I don't much care for that antiquated hero archetype from stateside cartoons, the sheer brutality of this show made it worth watching.

I'm always up for more exploding random dudes with punches.

@YuiAsakawa:  I'm the same way, I love the newer show that have been out recently, but I still love my old school animeXD
