“Omae wa mou shindeiru (you’re already dead).” Most people have probably heard the phrase or been exposed to the meme at some point in their lives. Kenshiro, the lead character of Fist of the North Star, is just that iconic. He defined the 1980s anime scene with his effortlessly cool, stoic vibe and ability to effortlessly dispatch opponents.Next year marks the 40th anniversary of the legendary Fist of the North Star, and to mark this iconic occasion, Warner Bros. Japan will be remaking Fist of the North Star. The reboot, titled Fist of the North Star: Hokuto no Ken, will be the perfect opportunity to use the advances of modern technology to bring Kenshiro’s fights to life.Fist of the North Star (Hokuto no Ken) is a manga series written by Yoshiyuki Okamura (pen name Buronson) and illustrated by Tetsuo Hara in 1983. The following year, the anime adaptation was released, spanning more than 152 episodes across two series. Both the manga and the anime were hugely successful, with the manga selling more than 100 million volumes, making it one of the best-selling manga titles of all time. When Fist of the North Star came out in 1984, its super-violent and over-the-top gore was unlike anything else at the time. The series excellently contrasts the kind-hearted and caring nature of the lead character, Kenshiro, with the cold and terrifying actions of corrupt gangs who reigned terror over civilians in a post-apocalyptic world. Fist of the North Star is a brutal Mad Max-inspired series where grotesque and unimaginably evil biker gangs ensnare and harass vulnerable civilians.RELATED: Zom 100 Wants Patriarchies to Stay Dead
