Description
Based on a story by Yoshiyuki Okamura (born 1947) and Tetsuo Hara (born 1961) – Toei Animation – 1984
Hokuto No Ken
Production cell painted with Indian ink and acrylic, depicting Raoh (Ken-oh, which literally translates as ‘King of Fists’) fighting Juza of the Clouds in this legendary battle, which begins with Juza humiliating Raoh by stealing his iconic steed, Kokuo, to force the conqueror to face him; They engage in a fierce battle unfolding on screen; it is one of the rare occasions where we see Raoh in difficulty, but despite this, Raoh emerges victorious and ends Juza’s life. The King of Fists is left awestruck and full of admiration for his opponent’s loyalty and tenacity; Raoh therefore orders his soldiers to prepare a funeral for his opponent rather than leaving his body to the desolate wilderness.
26.5 x 23 cm.
