I saw the first movie, I thought "enjoyable".
It seems intrigueing, but people died too easily and it was like half the characters seemed worthless. And like some of my friends said, it does seem like Dragonball Z, but with violence. And oh the violence ... what can I say about exploding heads? Well, I thought it was overdone, nothing that made me feel sick or anything, but I thought that the movie was -so- gory, it was almost funny (and probably the goriest anime I've ever seen, up with Elfen Lied). I don't know, it was a decent movie. Nothing my friends and I wanted to turn off, but we did laugh quite a bit. I guess you would get more out of it with watching the actual series, and more of the movies. And how about the New Fist of the Northstar? Wow, it's probably the goriest anime out there. The bodily explosions are so disgustingly detailed you can see chunks of brain, intestines, and so forth exploding out of people ... yikes. (I just saw random parts my friend showed me). So yeah, I guess for people who are looking for Dragonball Z, with a thin plot, but with extreme gore, look no further than Fist of the NorthStar. (PS: I almost died of laughter when Ken first did the Bruce Lee screams, it came out of nowhere). |

Ita about time someone posted a thread about FOTNS...
I enjoy this anime alot better than the others around, it sticks with the main part of a great anime...Awesome ways to Kill people... Seriously, this anime comes on the Anime Action channel at night...In fact, I just got done watching it I like the fact that Ken can just make people die in the most horriffic way possiable...I remember one episode where he paralyzed this one person with these large claws...Said in 30 seconds his spine was going to penetrate his head, and as soon as he said that a timer was counting down.... The first step was him laughing saying what a load a bullshit it was, untill his arms froze, and then his back began to arch back...and then, his spine PENETRATED his head! ....my Lord that was awesome! Im also planning on buying the new movie, on the back there was this guy's head splitting in half in such great detail...something I'd expect to see from rot- Err, a very bad website..... All and All, this Anime is great....Classic, and Great |

Dude, get it, Dude, get it, DUDE, FUCKING GET IT!
I JUST got volume one and two (i've seen the show before) and immediately uploaded 14 episodes to my iPod. It's all about death and violence and killing and death. Only thing that irritates me is that blood is eitehr all black or all white, and you don't see the aftermath of the horrific deaths. But oh well. Can't have it all. Get it. |

The thing is, I'm thinking about getting into Berserk instead.
Berserk just seems insanely deep, and I hear the characters and plot are outstanding. I don't know, when I think of Fist of the NorthStar, Berserk also comes to mind, and vice versa. Probably just because they both excell to extremes in terms of violence. (Last edited by Xeo on 04-18-06 12:22 AM) |
