What improvement you would like to see in this remake?

I just want better pacing. That was always the OG anime's biggest problem.

I just want great animation (obviously) but also the art style in particular to be on point. Because that’s what I loved most about the manga, the art was so damn good.

Has the studio been confirmed? I personally want david production on this series.

I don't ask for much improvement. I just hope they'll keep the original show's qualities/spirit.
And won't make into "for all family" or "not to offend anyone" type of the show for "modern audiences" ¯\(°_o)/¯

If we get good animation and it adapts the full story this time then I should be happy with it I love the original 80s anime I was only disappointed it didn’t cover the whole manga. If they don’t use CGI I’m hoping this will be great. Idk if they can top the original soundtrack though I personally think that original soundtrack for the 80s anime was perfect.

The worst part of Hokuto no Ken were the filler episodes, so that. A more condensed story or at that same filler but with a lot more substance would be nice.

By the way, does anyone knows if the manga has as much filler as the anime? I've been thinking about reading it but I'm not still sure because of that.

@LittleAbacus They aren't really fillers considering that Kenshiro do not have a mean of transportation due to which he have to stop in a lot of location. Leading to a lot of fights with the local thugs and clan leaders. It is suppose to be a long journey in a post apocalyptic world.

@almightybismarck I know, but it gets to a point where it gets so tedious. At the final part I want to see Kenshiro fight Raoh, but instead I we get new out-of-nowhere characters who are there only to be killed by Raoh.

man these guys here be like "good animation " like if the og adaption had bad animation or smth lol

Honestly I would like if cherography in some fights was better, for example Juza vs Raoh and final Kenshiro vs Raoh were all better in the anime and for some songs from the OST to be kept or remade and to flesh out Shin's character a bit more than they did in the manga, kinda like in the anime but without so much filler. Other than that, I will be perfectly happy as long as its a faithful adaptation without useless filler.

I would like to see the characters in their original coloring like they were intended in the manga. For example, Raoh with his light skin and hair or Rei with his darker clothes instead of green. It would help to separate this new version from the old one as well.

I’m hoping that the gods army arc finally gets a perfect animated version where the backstory of the army is kept

I just want it to match the pacing of the manga. The original toei anime was slower paced. Some of the filler was funny like Ken fighting a tank, but some was pointless. It probably doesn't need to be over 100 episodes.

@napa_sensei_yt Buronson stated that it will stick more to the Manga while also capture the feeling more. So, mostly it will be.

@almightybismarck Oh, so Buronson-sensei commented on that and what's more, confirmed the new anime is gonna feel more faithful to the manga? That's awesome!

Uncensored violence is the most important in my opinion. For this remake to be successful, it needs to be in the vein of Hellsing Ultimate and retain the violence in all its bloody glory.

I don't think we have to worry too much about censorship, many modern anime don't really tone that down that much. I really do hope they adapt the last unadapted chapters though. It's a sin that HNK 2 stopped before adapting everything.

Biggest change I want to see is for the Golan arc to not be screwed over this time lol.
I want actual good 2D animation and not some CGI trash too.
It'd also be nice to have a complete adaptation.
