Houston-based anime distributor Section23 Films and Sentai Filmworks have detailed the Blu-ray release of
DD Fist of the North Star. Produced by Ajia-do Animation Works, written by Shinya Umemura and directed by Kaijio, the 13-episode anime series arrives on Blu-ray on April 14th.
Synopsis: Highly trained in the secret martial art of Hokuto Shinken, Kenshiro has achieved such a high level of combat expertise that he can kill a man with his pinky finger. Though these skills may be useful for a wandering man trying to survive the deadly wastelands left behind by nuclear war, they're all but useless in modern day Japan!
With an apocalypse that never happened and a less-than-desirable skill set, would-be hero Ken is stuck looking for a job just like every other unemployed schmuck in Japan. And frankly, he doesn't interview well. Things start to look up when he stumbles across an opening at a convenience store, but unfortunately he'll have to deal with two contentious contenders if he wants the job: his own brothers Toki and Raoh, who're just as dimwitted and muscle-headed as the mighty Ken himself.
The Blu-ray release of
DD Fist of the North Star features series episodes 1-13, 1080p video, lossless Japanese audio, and English subtitles. Extras include:
- Clean Opening Animation
- Clean Closing Animation
