Legends of the Dark King: A Fist of the North Star Story · review

It is not difficult to understand what kind of anime it is, it's enough to literally look at the poster to deduce that the story will not be very deep but that there will be a lot of beatings, violence and blood. At first it looked like a heavy and difficult anime to follow but after the second episode I had practically already guessed the goal of the story: to show how much Raou is a badass. Each time he reminds us that if there is an enemy he will destroy him with his fist and every time someone tries to challenge him we alreadyknow that Raou will come out the winner.
Some scenes are a bit repetitive, this cannot be denied and the other two main characters, Reina and Souga, are quite boring. I'm glad that the post-apocalyptic dark themes, typical of Hokuto no Ken, have not been eliminated; having said that there are scenes that had to be serious but that made me laugh (and I'm ashamed).
An example is when Raou meets his steed, I will not describe the scene in order not to spoil but know that it had to be a serious episode and that I started laughing because I found the episode itself ridiculous.
All in all the series was not too bad and in general I liked it. It's not the best anime of Hokuto no Ken but it's decent.
