Hokuto No Ken
Production cell painted in Indian ink and acrylic, featuring two key frames in which Raoh is seen blocking one of his brother Toki’s attacks. This fight is one of the most iconic in the series, as it depicts two masters of the ‘Hokuto Shinken’ martial art in the thick of battle, reflecting the philosophies of the two brothers: Raoh, representing brute and destructive force, and Toki, who displays a graceful style based on complete mastery of his energy—a power capable even of healing the sick. The fight ends with Toki’s defeat; his illness, caused by radiation, prevents him from delivering the final blow to his brother Raoh. However, Raoh reveals a side of his personality hidden beneath his armour, as his brotherly love prevents him from finishing him off.
