[Fist of the North Star] Episode 71 “Bat, Crisis in a Pinch!?” Starts Broadcasting!

Japan Otaku Reviews+


“Hokuto no Ken” is getting its first Reiwa-era spin-off! The drama “Hokuto no Ken” has started filming!? Friday drama Hokuto no Ken post-apocalyptic drama filming board.

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx31

While taking (a picture).

Let’s think!

21: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx13

>>1

Is this site insane…?

23: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

>>21

👺

30: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx27

>>1

2: Japan Otaku Reviews

Interestingly, I’ve returned to my roots!

5: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx47

>>2

It’s a painful beginning…

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

I’m really curious about the thumbnail for the next episode!! I bought it.

4: Japan Otaku Reviews

Self.

Explosion.

Please provide the text you would like to have translated.

6: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx24

When you think about it, the original source on the reality side is Mad Max 2, so the car chase is a return to the basics.

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx76

If a great scene like this is captured, I won’t be able to say anything…

16: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

>>7

The model of an actor…

112: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>7

It’s really a great scene…

8: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

I wonder if there are actually instances where it plays out exactly like the script…?

12: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

>>8

In this work, it turned out that it overlapped with another drama that was aired the day before when I tried to film it.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is it a good start that my first appearance involves self-destruction…?

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

Above all, we can achieve the bombing quota…!

11: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

“Can you lend me your strength?! Don’t you think there are too many pitiful stories that aren’t getting any spotlight?”

15: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx15

>>11

The original work is…

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx25

If Mr. Mutou has turned to the side of the reformers, then no one can stop it other than the sponsors.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>13

(I heard it was extreme, but when I came to observe, it was more ordinary than I expected…)

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>13

Thinking about what happened to Raoh after this, I wonder if Mutou-san went on a rampage…

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>101

“…Brother!!!”

“Brothers?!”

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

Repeating the first episode in a special edition like a movie is certainly…

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a movie, so it’s okay to go that far… but that’s not it.

18: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx40

Bringing my son to make him do it must have me pretty much in a North Star state of mind…

20: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx17

>>18

Since I’m saying it’s worth a try…

36: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>18

In reality, there are quite a few guest appearances in friendships too…

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

Bat’s performance is… well, it’s in Part 2…

27: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx35

>>19

Um… Coach! Does that mean the bat for the second half is after the growth…? Does that mean my turn is already…?!

77: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>27

If we’re filming the “Country of the Shura” arc, I guess they’ll probably grow a lot during their growth period.

22: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I didn’t know… that there was a plan for the bat to explode…

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

It is said that Bat suddenly became the expert commentator on the secrets of martial arts during the later showdown with Raoh as a way to make up for this time…?

25: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

I thought the child in the dynamite was acting strangely with stiff movements, but I never expected them to achieve consistency in this way…

123: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>25

When I hear it, I think “I see,” but isn’t it a bit too much to focus on that and try to make everything consistent?

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

But I don’t think it’s Mamo-kun who’s guarding the bat in the second part anymore…

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

This part makes you go “Huh!?” even in the original work.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ve been waiting for Mr. Muto to come to the site.

31: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

Starting off with a self-destruct on your first appearance, that’s a good sign, isn’t it?

32: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

I forgot it was strawberry-flavored, but Souther was a total scumbag.

39: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx26

>>32

Because of love, it was taken lightly, but what I’m doing is crap.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>32

It’s strong, but it’s too cowardly and annoying with its taunts…

56: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>41

That’s enough!

Pointing out only the bad things like that is really off-putting!

33: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

It might be a two-part pad played by the grown-up Mamoru-kun!

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are also stories that Dr. Hara and Dr. Buronson never met in person during the serialization.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s not okay for children to self-destruct, even in the Showa era.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>37

It’s fine because we’ve already done plenty of things wrong even during the Showa era.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>37

The belly mite is also in Barefoot Gen…

61: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

>>37

I remember doing it in Reigen Dojo, so it’s okay, it’s okay.

65: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>61

Watermelon head!!

68: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>61

It’s disqualified because it was made in China!

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>61

Well, there is no Showa era in China…

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

Re-reading the previous session got 0 points!! And I can’t help but laugh.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

This is the same development, right? It seems to apply generally to the mid to late stages of Hokuto…

162: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>40

Even Master Buronson used everything he had after defeating Raoh.

I don’t remember anything about that time at all after the second part.

They say it’s become a rehash of some parts.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

I guess it’s quite common to hear about actual children appearing in movies and such…

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>42

In Attack on Titan, Kaji-kun and Taketatsu’s baby participated in the voice recording too…

43: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx21

That’s what it is now!

Is it okay if it’s the Showa era?

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

That’s the exquisite part of Souther – it’s understandable (or not) given that past.

45: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx16

After this, the kid with the turban will probably stand out too, right, Mamoru-kun…?

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if we can do the self-destruction of children in the Reiwa version!?

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Showa era is a pardon… no, it’s definitely a pardon.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are also kids with turbans later on, so it’s a movie with a lot of children…

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

Suddenly the son of ◯◯! Or the brother of ✕✕! It’s a common flow in Hokuto.

54: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx15

>>50

I still think there’s something off about Raoh’s son…!

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>54

Looking back now, it was a pioneering idea for the protagonist’s son.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>54

In the drama, I wonder if Ryu is some kind of insider at an agency…

60: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>50

The preparations for Ryuga are progressing well…

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

Yah-ha! It’s an update!

52: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Is Moru-kun going to be messed up by the drill?

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

I read ahead, but it turned out to be unexpected.

67: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>58

It’s always like this every time!

69: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx16

>>58

It’s unfair that only adults get to read ahead!

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

The veteran villain actor who caused his son to commit suicide.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a shame that with the long-awaited Souther arc, the Ichigo flavor collaboration might really be impossible…

84: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>63

That one has been on indefinite hiatus due to the author’s health issues and hasn’t returned since, so there’s nothing that can be done.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

What is a bombing scene with a cause…?

I found it, a great cause!

71: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

When you think about it calmly, isn’t it a bit sad for Shu to be preceded in death by his son and crushed by a pyramid?

74: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx43

>>71

It’s obvious that Shu is really pathetic, even without thinking too calmly!

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>71

Because of love, people must suffer!

Love makes people suffer!

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m a bit hazy on the details, but doesn’t this son eat super spicy bread after this?

81: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

>>72

It’s becoming rarer for creations to die from self-destruction, but normally, if you self-destruct, you die!

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

So much like a movie!

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

I still think that there could have been more involvement from Raoh’s son and Raoh’s brother as well.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

The star of compassion is a sad star…

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is it true that the kid with the turban is going to perform?

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s too haphazard to cast a child who is an amateur just because they aspire to be an actor.

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>80

It is safer than having children participate in the tour.

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>95

Moreover, they are not paying a fee under the pretext of observation and experience.

That’s just the worst!

117: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>109

I gave you a towel with the show’s logo, so it’s all good, right!

120: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>109

I gave you a towel…

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>80

Is it really possible that there isn’t a single available child actor?!

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>98

I was asked if I could come to the site of Fist of the North Star right now!

130: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

>>110

Because Lin and Bat are acting calm, it’s easy to forget that the child actor is crying after seeing the dummy of a corpse.

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>98

He’s not just a child actor… he’s a child actor with the acting skills to star in movies!

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>98

They’re all busy in the west, and we’ve already used up the budget at the Holy Emperor’s Cross Mausoleum, so simply put, we don’t have the money to hire child actors…

124: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>98

I think it would be quite difficult to do everything all at once.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is the scriptwriter not going to get mad?

85: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>82

Let’s read! Read ahead!

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>82

Finally, is it going to move…

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>82

You think so, right?

The pre-reading follows that.

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>82

Hmm, isn’t it a bit bland?

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

You can tell just from the thumbnail that even Muto-san has gone crazy.

88: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

Because Morikuni and Tachibanachan have shared joys and hardships (excessive demands) together, the phrase “To me, you’re like a brother!” shines.

90: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

It’s cowardly to think it’s okay for Batman to die because it’s a movie, right?

That’s a live-action version!

93: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>90

It is originally a live-action drama movie… and in Aibou, the chief secretary dies too…

102: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx15

>>90

That movie, does Batman die!?

Huh, are you picking up on that kind of stuff…?

142: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>102

I might have been the most impressed by this manga…

91: Japan Otaku Reviews

It must be tough to come up with scenes that are slightly less impactful than those in the main story…

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

That guy has definitely never been popular with women!

94: Japan Otaku Reviews

Every time we improvise on set, I’m having to write additional scripts to make everything fit together…

131: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>94

The Judah edition was mostly created on-site based on Judah’s character, so it feels like Mr. Mutou had almost no involvement, which is really terrible.

96: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

“The phrase ‘Starting with a self-destructing performance in your first lead role is a great sign!’ is the highest form of praise that can only be said by someone who has spent many years as a villain.”

107: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>96

It’s easy to become a scene that is talked about for a long time, isn’t it? Self-destruction.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

I read ahead, but I’m starting to get a bad feeling about what’s coming…

When I saw that person’s infatuation with Raoh…

99: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

What is Western Police, which returns to its origin by opposing Western Police, rather?

104: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>99

The terrain just changes a little.

111: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>99

Tobu! It’s Tobu!

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

You understood that it’s happening as it goes, as if it’s just for fun.

No one will stop anymore.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

In this day and age, this kind of thing is really not acceptable!!!

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

This live feeling is just amazing!!

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have a really bad feeling about filming the battle at the Holy Emperor Pyramid.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

Poor Mamoru-kun.

145: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>108

Ultimately, I will take on the important role that brings closure to Hokuto, so for now, it’s fine to cloud things as much as you want.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

The bat from Kaioh isn’t for you, dammit!

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wondered if Buronson had ended up like this too with precognition…

128: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>118

When reading the interview, it seems that manga is even more random…

137: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>128

It seems incredible that they started without deciding anything at first.

153: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>137

Reverse

I only decided on the flow of the first episode and started, not having decided anything else about why Ken was traveling or why he had seven scars on his chest—I was thinking of it all on the spot.

135: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>118

I just remembered a bit about the original author of “The Flames’ Transferee.”

119: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s great to receive a role with a significant showcase for my first appearance.

121: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Am I unexpectedly a doting parent? That wasn’t good.

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

Are we just going to follow Kenshiro, who will be sent away like a cow, after this bat (and Rin)…?

125: Japan Otaku Reviews

I mean, they’re even featuring a young Souther from his childhood, and there are so many talented child actors in this movie!

126: Japan Otaku Reviews

Taniguchi Junior, who bombed in his debut movie…

134: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx17

>>126

I think it’s something to be proud of for a lifetime.

156: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>134

(I guess I’m surprisingly doting as a parent?)

127: Japan Otaku Reviews

Sometimes there are geniuses, aren’t there?

129: Japan Otaku Reviews

The worst lines of Souther were made on site, which is quite profound…

141: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>129

“I will not retreat! I will not grovel! I will not look back! An emperor does not flee! (We will premiere on the same day as the Eastern Police)”

132: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want this manga to conclude with the character who played the bat role ultimately growing up and performing the bat in the finale…

177: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>132

Do we have to do it for that long!?

133: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

Self-destruction is quite flashy and makes for a great scene, doesn’t it?

I love the part where the Haan brothers go to self-destruct because they can’t make Ein do it.

136: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

I wonder if there’s anything interesting to blow up → children

Is this program crazy?

138: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like how, behind the line ‘It conveys the spirit of the Big Dipper!’, Shuu is dropping Mohican’s head and slashing faces.

Isn’t the South Star gruesome in a realistic movie?

152: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>138

If you don’t mind the gruesomeness in manga and anime, then you’ve been quite influenced by Hokuto.

155: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>138

Since it’s already so grotesque from the first episode, it’s too late now.

164: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>138

The massacred people and the Mohawk are consistently grotesque in this manga?

171: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>138

It seems that the modern version of Fist of the North Star being streamed is even clearer than back in the day.

139: Japan Otaku Reviews

At the end, my childhood bat appears, so I really don’t know what to do.

140: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, child actors are not much different between professionals and amateurs by nature…

143: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that Buronson even thought about the existence of Yuria only after the serialization started.

149: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>143

What’s important in a weekly series is that next week’s developments will be thought up by me next week.

144: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Because this movie also features characters like the turban kid and young Souther.

150: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>144

I’m also curious about the actor playing the master.

146: Japan Otaku Reviews

Could it be that Souza when he was younger is Kashiwa’s son… or perhaps his brother?

147: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can’t say anything anymore…

148: Japan Otaku Reviews

“Even if you become famous, it doesn’t matter if it fails; the story of ‘my first leading role was a self-destruct due to being cast as Hokuto’s child role’ will last a lifetime…”

151: Japan Otaku Reviews

“Disinfect the filth~! It seems there will be some commotion before using the flamethrower.”

174: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>151

I already took care of the filth.

154: Japan Otaku Reviews

The toki knows! I wonder why it becomes like that…

168: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>154

Did Shimada-chan forget her lines and just said something on the spot…?

157: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s unsettling that Mutou-san is already redoing it with a preview thumbnail!

158: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because it’s the first time, I’m nervous, and the fact that I’m going to self-destruct is adding to my tension…

159: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the second part, if they don’t show some growth during this developmental period, it’s going to be sad for Mamoru-kun!

189: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>159

It’s probably impossible to grow to the level of a 2nd division bat in just a few years…

197: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>189

The drama reaches a grand finale with Raoh’s death!

The second part of the legendary drama will start in five years!

If we make it like that…

The growth period really makes you grow remarkably…

160: Japan Otaku Reviews

Buronson seems like an amazing person in a different way.

It seems that someone with such a vibrant live presence is running something like a manga school in their hometown, but I wonder if it would be helpful.

172: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>160

That person is a great genius for drawing a historic manga together with Mr. Harada in a live atmosphere.

161: Japan Otaku Reviews

Surely there won’t be any children bombing in the Eastern Police… there won’t be, right…?

163: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m not even treated as a teammate by Ray, Bat…

165: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Speaking of which, it was a situation that would make a normal kid cry.

Well, you can’t just easily bring out child actors.

176: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>165

Being too delicate just because I witnessed my father being executed right in front of me…

167: Japan Otaku Reviews

I heard that you were quite serious until the end, but is that a lie?

169: Japan Otaku Reviews

When you think about it, the Holy Emperor arc has memorable underlings, people suffering from violence, Kenshiro who suffers defeat but then revives, and the feelings of the antagonists.

It feels like a culmination of the entire flow of Hokuto.

It has too much persuasiveness as a theatrical version that can be enjoyed just by watching this alone.

194: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>169

It’s really well put together… oddly enough, it’s a mystery why this level of completion just suddenly appeared.

I want a reason to call it a theatrical version.

170: Japan Otaku Reviews

Please praise Shiba… (self-recommendation)

173: Japan Otaku Reviews

Next time, the thumbnail is unfair.

175: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Hearing the various episodes from that time, the speed and quantity of the ideas that Buronson came up with, which were likely to generate excitement, can only be described as genius.

178: Japan Otaku Reviews

Originally, it was a one-shot by Mr. Hara, and since I got to have the story developed into a series, I received a co-author credit.

179: Japan Otaku Reviews

Buronson has a vibe of living life as someone who was just playing around with Hiroshi Mokuni and then ended up being asked to be the original author for editing.

188: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>179

I want Sensei Buronson to be turned into a manga.

180: Japan Otaku Reviews

How much is still undecided about the setting for the Souther arc in the live-action version at this stage?

181: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

>>180

Perhaps… you haven’t decided on Mr. Ougai either?

183: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>180

Mentor or something like that…

182: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it would be prettier if it ended with the Raoh arc as a manga…

190: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>182

I don’t think this manga can continue until the end at this pacing.

184: Japan Otaku Reviews

If we do part 2, Tachibana-chan will get caught by a crane and start spinning at high speed.

185: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m really sorry, but I completely forgot about Shu’s son…

200: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>185

Well, it’s not really an important role or anything…

186: Japan Otaku Reviews

I love how Kenshiro’s favorite food doesn’t match up when trivia comes up.

187: Japan Otaku Reviews

The level of aspiring child actors is high…!

193: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>187

Children grow up watching their father’s back…

191: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Well, regarding Hokuto, if they say they hadn’t thought about the future developments at all, I can only say that seems reasonable.

192: Japan Otaku Reviews

First of all, the pen name itself is a bundle of live energy, isn’t it, Buronson?

195: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Because Shimada-chan is the one behind the scenes, it feels like whatever Raoh says can’t be strange at all.

196: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

This production story is always interesting…

198: Japan Otaku Reviews

There aren’t many manga that could have their final episode while still at the peak of popularity since it wrapped up neatly in Jump at that time…

199: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

There is an interview with the person.
