- Fist of the North Star is the subject of the 68th episode of Anime Abandon, hosted by Bennett the Sage. The episode was originally posted to That Guy With the Glasses on November 14th, 2013. In this episode, Sage reviews a staple of 1980's anime: Fist of the North Star. More specifically, the 1986 movie (not the live-action one, JesuOtaku already covered that travesty). Likely the progenitor of all other mainstream ultra-violent anime, Fist of the North Star is given the Sage treatment, both the good and bad.
- Fist of the North Star (劇場版 世紀末救世主伝説 北斗の拳 Gekijōban Seikimatsu Kyūseishu Densetsu Hokuto no Ken?, Fist of the North Star Theatrical Version: Legend of the Century's End Savior) is a 1986 Japanese animated film adaptation of the manga series of the same name. It was produced by Toei Animation, the same studio who worked on the TV series that was airing at the time, with the same cast and crew working on both projects. The film adapts the storyline of the manga from the beginning of the series up until Kenshiro's first match with his rival and elder brother Raoh, with many liberties taken with the order of events and how the story unfolds (including the roles of several characters). However, the film retains the more violent content of the original manga, which the television series lacked.

- Fist of the North Star(北斗の拳Hokuto no Ken, literally "Fist of the Big Dipper") is a Japanese manga series written by Buronson and drawn by Tetsuo Hara that was serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump from 1983 to 1988, spanning 245 chapters, which were initially collected in a 27-volume tankōbon edition by Shueisha. Set in a post-apocalyptic world that has been destroyed by a nuclear war, the story centers around a warrior named Kenshiro, the successor of a deadly martial art style known as Hokuto Shinken, which gives him the ability to kill most adversaries from within through the use of the human body's secret vital points, often resulting in a violent gory death.

| abstract | - The story tells of how in 2008 Kim Jong Il accidentally blew up a fireworks factory. This was seen as an act of aggression by everyone else on the planet. The world leaders decided that the only way that they could beat him was to turn the world into a nuclear wasteland so that the radiation would mutate everyone into supersoldiers with laser eyes. Unfortunately the plan did not work and pretty much everyone died of cancer. The remains of human civilisation went to Australia and were divided into two groups. Half of them became farmers and cowards who spent their time being sick and crawling in sand. The other half became 80's style punks and bought second hand quad bikes which they used to run around the desert and rape stuff on. In this scenario God sent his son to put the world back in place but Satan turns him into the insane Kenshiro thus dooming humanity to a perpetual yet mildly amusing apocalypse. The story then becomes a whole lot more longer and slightly more complicated when, after defeating Shin (Satan) with the Hokuto crucifixion, he comes to realise that God has also put two other sons (what ?) on the Earth: Raoh and Toki. Raoh is more pissed then Kenshiro, but, since he's the incarnation of the wrath and disbelief of God as opposed to super-badass Akira Jesus Kenshiro, he goes around recruiting the bikers to beat up more farmers while riding a horse that has a larger fanbase than most of the other characters. Toki is, in the meantime, busy doing something (see below).
- Fist of the North Star(北斗の拳Hokuto no Ken, literally "Fist of the Big Dipper") is a Japanese manga series written by Buronson and drawn by Tetsuo Hara that was serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump from 1983 to 1988, spanning 245 chapters, which were initially collected in a 27-volume tankōbon edition by Shueisha. Set in a post-apocalyptic world that has been destroyed by a nuclear war, the story centers around a warrior named Kenshiro, the successor of a deadly martial art style known as Hokuto Shinken, which gives him the ability to kill most adversaries from within through the use of the human body's secret vital points, often resulting in a violent gory death. Kenshiro dedicates his life to fight against the various ravagers who threaten the lives of the weak and innocent, as well as other rival martial artists, including his own "brothers" from the same clan. The manga was adapted into two TV anime series produced by Toei Animation which aired on Fuji TV affiliates from 1984 through 1988, comprising a combined total of 152 episodes. Several films, OVAs, and video games had been produced as well, including a series of spin-offs centering around other characters from the original story. The original manga was published by Viz Communications as a monthly comic book, and later by Gutsoon! Entertainment as a series of colorized graphic novels, although neither translations were completed. English adaptations of other Fist of the North Star media have also been licensed to other companies, including the TV series and the original 1986 film.
