Nanto Koshu Ken

Nanto Koshū Ken in action.



Nanto Koshu Ken (南斗孤鷲拳, South Dipper Lone Eagle Fist) is a form of Nanto Seiken represented by its successor, Shin, as part of the Nanto Rokusei Ken (Six Sacred Fists of Nanto). It focuses on performing rapid hand strikes which stab the enemy to death. This style also uses flying kick techniques (as shown in flashbacks in the manga/anime), such as Nanto Gokuto Ken and another unnamed technique that Shin used during his rise to power.

This branch of the Nanto Seiken was originally unnamed in the manga and 1980's anime. The designation Nanto Koshū Ken was first used in the 1986 publication Hokuto no Ken Special: All About the Man and has been used in every official Hokuto no Ken source since then. Shin announces its name for the first time in the video game Hokuto no Ken: Shinpan no Sōsōsei Kengō Retsuden.
