| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- One of the best episodes so far. They confirmed many of the Jesus theories for Kenshiro by simply stating that he's a savior. The fights were pretty neat and the conflicted feelings of Yuria really deliver. |
| Finally shit got real. This last 3 or so episodes had been terrible, but this one was pretty good. I find it funny that this is the episode discussion with less posts, when the episode was the best one so far. 5/5 |
| Things are starting to pick up... This is getting good. |
| I do hope Ken's fights in the future are as good as Shin's. |
| Never forget, that if you post a topic, you're not allowed to post in it yourself, by order of MAL administration. |
| Well Shin is still an ass for what he did to Ken but at least he isn't completely bad. |
 |
| The face Joker made was priceless. |
 |
| I've grown to be pretty endeared to Shin... don't want him to go! |
| Welp, time to finally destroy Shin. |
 |
| This and 22 are climax 10/10 episodes, the rebellion was rather unexpected. We could see more of Nanto Seiken in the great fight Balcom vs Shin. Shin cares more than we thought, and Joker vs Kenshiro was also a highlight, although the latter one could have been a tad longer. Really good episode! |
 |
| I knew it Kenshiro is alive.. yeah sure I は shock! xD It seems Shin's end is near Shin just made one big mistake and he have to pay it.. soon |
"Signature removed"   |
| Party's over Shin, karma is a bitch. |
|
| That subordinate really overestimated his strength, thinking he killed Kenshiro and could take on Shin |
 |
| About time Joker got his turn. |
 |
| Shin VS bearded guy was rather good. Can't wait for Kenshiro to f*** Shin up. |
| Stellar episode. A lot of shit happened. First of all, the one captain that didn't want to take on Shin was probably the bandit with the most brains I've seen so far. The part where he picked up the statue to attack was funny. Too bad he got killed. The fight between Barcom and Shin was good. We finally got to see a little bit more about Shin's fighting style. I'm guessing if "Hokuto Shinken" damages from the inside-out, "Nanto Seiken" probably damages from the outside. Oh yeah, the way Saki got knocked out was pretty funny. Finally, Ken busts out of that ship right when Joker arrives. How long was he in there? Joker's cards were strong, cutting rocks in half. That part where he and Ken were flying through the air looked funny. I can't believe the battle was over so quickly. If Shin had trouble with Barcom, what's gonna happen when he meets Ken? The city is burning and shit is going down. And actionpacked and funny episode! |

| Been a while since I last watched Hokuto no Ken. I sold my PS4 and Fist of the North Star Lost Paradise was the last game I played on it. I miss it. :( But at least I still have the anime to keep me company. This was the last filler episode. From the next episode till episode 29, it's mixed canon/filler according to animefillerlist.com. For a filler episode, it was pretty good. Probably the best out of all the filler episodes. I especially liked how it mostly focused on Shin. I feel like the anime tried really hard to make Shin a much more compelling villain. Having him show off his fighting style more with his stupid general before he fought Ken. And we also saw his kindness in sparing Saki by sending her back to her village. But he's still tone-deaf when it comes to pleasing Yuria. Or maybe Yuria shouldn't speak in riddles. Maybe Shin just doesn't understand wtf she's talking about and so he just mistakenly keeps doing the wrong shit. That'd be funny ngl. Yuria should've just explicitly told him to fuck off or at least stop committing horrible atrocities for her sake. And now the city's in chaos. I'm surprised this didn't happen much sooner. Kenshiro vs Joker was really short ngl. But it was good enough. Looking forward to watching Kenshiro vs Shin final showdown. It's going to be epic. |
