Kenshiro

Kenshiro (ケンシロウ) is the main protagonist of the Fist of the North Star series and the star character in the Legendary Mode in Hokuto Musou, which follows his adventures from the comics. He is one of the series' iconic characters, who is famous for saying "You are already dead." (お前はもう死んでいる, Omae wa mou shinderu) and for his high-pitched Bruce Lee inspired yells. Known as the "messiah of the end of the century", Kenshiro is a practitioner of Hokuto Shinken who is considered to have legendary abilities for the craft. He is Raoh, Toki and Jagi's youngest adopted brother. Yuria is his love interest.

Although he acts as a composed stoic, he is actually very kind and is moved by any caring people he meets. He won't fight people who have a good heart, people who don't have the will to oppose him, or those who are in sorrow. Kenshiro only strives to guard those who can't protect themselves and punishes thugs with a death fitting for their crimes.

Fighting Style
Hokuto Shinken is a centuries old assassination technique that was devised during the Three Kingdoms era. As it was originally made to protect the three emperors (Cao Cao, Sun Quan, Liu Bei), a slight division named after each of their families exists. The martial art targets vital points of energy within the human body with concentrated, powerful strikes. Users of the technique can tap into their bodies' hidden capabilities, making experienced users impenetrable to gunfire wounds and hits dealt by heavy metallic objects. Due to the legend that the Hokuto style will cause chaos wherever the practitioner stays, Kenshiro wanders the land to protect the common folk.

As their fighting style dictates that only one successor can inherit the technique at any time, Kenshiro gradually fights his brothers to decide the 64th successor.

Techniques

 * Hokuto Hyakuretsu Ken (North Star Hundred Crack Fist) - Kenshiro's trademark technique in which he pumps up his upper body muscles and rips apart his shirt. He then pummels his foe with a flurry of punches, often resulting in instant death moments later. He can perform 50 punches in 3 seconds.
 * Hokuto Zankai Ken (North Star Remorse Fist) - Kenshiro punctures his thumbs into his opponent's head. They will live for three seconds to repent for their sins before erupting into a bloody mess.
