Kibo no Tane

For a charity project of the programme Gyoretsu no Dekiru Horitsu Sodanjo, Tetsuo Hara drew Kenshiro kneeling before a young sprout, "the seed of hope".

In 2008, the programme Gyoretsu no Dekiru Horitsu Sodanjo (行列のできる法律相談所, Nippon TV) ran the project “100枚の絵でつなぐ!カンボジア学校建設プロジェクト”. Works by well-known figures were auctioned to fund the building of a school in Cambodia. Tetsuo Hara took part with Kibo no Tane (希望の種, “the seed of hope”), a black-and-white drawing in which Kenshiro, kneeling before a young sprout, raises one hand before his chest in a kenpo gesture, the other open. The same composition, in colour, also appears on the cover of volume 18 of the Kyukyoku-ban (究極版) edition of Fist of the North Star.
