Hokuto no Ken Chronicle (Takarajimasha, 2012) 北斗の拳クロニクル 熱き漢たちの闘いのすべて
Overview
“Hokuto no Ken Chronicle: All the Battles of the Hot-Blooded Men” (北斗の拳クロニクル 熱き漢たちの闘いのすべて) is a guide to the Hokuto no Ken TV series and its sequel, Hokuto no Ken 2. Its cover promises “a complete analysis of the story across all 152 episodes of the anime” (TVアニメ全152話 ストーリー完全解析) and celebrates “thirty years since the start of serialization!” (連載開始から30年!). According to the publisher, it is based on “The Hokuto no Ken We Love, New Edition” (新装版 僕たちの好きな北斗の拳), a 2007 Bessatsu Takarajima special issue, and adds as an introduction “The History of Hokuto no Ken” (北斗の拳の歴史), from the beginning of the serialization to the pachinko and pachislot boom and recent events.
A color feature dedicated to the anime series presents Kenshiro, the men of Hokuto (Raoh, Toki, Jagi and Ryuken), the fighters of the Nanto Six Sacred Fists and the women of the series: Yuria, Mamiya, Airi and Tô. It also reviews Heart and the other villains, then the techniques of the Hokuto Shinken, with decisive blow scenes and ways of dying. The episode guide then divides the first series into four “books,” from succession (episodes 1 to 22) to destiny (episodes 83 to 109), before moving on to Hokuto no Ken 2, episodes 110 to 152. A relationship chart of the characters from both series closes the volume.
