Hokuto no Ken Character File Ransei Eiyūtan (Futabasha, 2006) 北斗の拳 キャラクターFILE 乱世英雄譚
Overview
“Hokuto no Ken, Character File: Tales of Heroes of the Age of Chaos” (北斗の拳 キャラクターFILE 乱世英雄譚) is the character directory for Hokuto no Ken produced by Shiranui Pro for Futabasha. Its prologue presents it as a “Bible of men” (漢のバイブル) and promises to explain their exploits “without omitting anything” (人物たちの活躍を余すことなく解説する).
It follows the story in two stages: “battles of the age of chaos” (乱世激闘編), then “the new legend” (新伝説編). Each part summarizes the story, reviews the heroes and the “men of ambition,” then focuses on the people who lived in that world. The double-page spread on Raoh covers the murder of his master Ryuken, his feelings for Yuria, his brother Toki and his elder brother Kaioh, with manga panels as supporting evidence. A second volume by the same team, the Data File Ōgi Hidensho, followed.
