Fist of the North Star: HOKUTO NO KEN [TV] TMDB

part of TV Series: Fist of the North Star: HOKUTO NO KEN

In the year 199X, the world was engulfed in nuclear fire!! Yet...humanity somehow survived!! A lone man with seven scars on his chest emerges. His name is Kenshiro, heir to Hokuto Shinken. In a world where only the strong survive, Kenshiro forges a path with his iron fists!

finished watching Fist of the North Star: HOKUTO NO KEN
I've not watched the original, nor read the manga, so I can only judge this remake by its own merits. Overall I enjoyed it. At first I wasn't sure about the art style; it felt a bit like "video game cutscene made in-engine". But it grew on me by the end.
