Warner Bros. Japan announced on Wednesday that it is producing a new anime adaptation of Buronson and Tetsuo Hara's landmark manga Fist of the North Star (Hokuto no Ken). The anime will have an all-new cast. Warner Bros. Japan will announce more details about the project at a later date.

The new anime announcement commemorates the series' 40th anniversary.

The manga's story is set in a post-apocalyptic world. The story centers on a man named Kenshiro, a master and successor to a deadly martial art, as he wanders the nuclear wasteland protecting the weak and innocent from violent thugs. In his travels, he must contend with other master martial artists and figures from his past, including his "brother" Raoh, who has crowned himself the king of the new world.

That's kinda hard to believe since both are one year apart from each other.

There's a whole slew of longrunners concurrent with HnK that were influenced by it. HnK was the shonen paradigm shift of the era, driving initially slapstick manga to adapt. While Dragonball was influenced, via an editor being convinced that you must be like HnK to succeed, it was the next paradigm shift, which is why we now have young goofy protagonists getting stronger over time, instead of overserious musclemen dominating everything in their path.

I honestly prefer this. Seeing the protagonist curbstomping every enemy he meets gets old really fast. It's honestly why I couldn't really finish the old anime. I don't mind it like One Piece where they would curbstomp the chumps but at least will struggle against the big bosses, especially when it isn't just "My power level is stronger than yours!", though I really do wish shonens would tone down the nakama power up shit.

FWIW, Kenshiro nearly dies against one opponent and struggles against at least a couple other ones.

We need a Battle Tendency x First of the North Star crossover.

Joseph Joestar: Your next line is, omae wa mo shindeiru
Kenshiro: Omae wa mou shindeiru
Kenshiro & Joseph simultaneously: NANIIIIIIIIIII!?!?!?!?!?!
