Hokuto no Ken Seikimatsu Kyūseishu Densetsu PlayStation-ban (V Jump Books, Shueisha, 2000) 北斗の拳 世紀末救世主伝説 プレイステーション版

Overview “Hokuto no Ken Seikimatsu Kyūseishu Densetsu, PlayStation Edition” (北斗の拳 世紀末救世主伝説 プレイステーション版) is the official guide to Hokuto no Ken: Seikimatsu Kyūseishu Densetsu, the game based on Hokuto no Ken that Bandai released on PlayStation in the fall of 2000. Billed as a “V Jump exclusive” (Vジャンプ独占!!), it proclaims on its cover: “For anyone who wants to know the true essence of Hokuto on PS, this book alone answers everything!” (PSにおける北斗の真髄を知ろうとする者には 全てこの本で答えるのみ!).

The guide takes the player chapter by chapter through the Kyūseishu Densetsu story, from “The Advent of the Savior” to “Farewell, Formidable Rival.” It explains how to compose a funny story in the Seikimatsu Theater, reproducing its lines and “laugh-out-loud” scenes made by the production team. Finally, it gives the combat data for the fourteen characters of the Hasha Kettei-sen tournament. A sidebar cites the Hokuto no Ken 2000 Kyūkyoku Kaisetsusho PART2 as a “reference work” (参考書籍).
