Eastern Star hits another home run
I won't bore you with too many details as I've already written reviews for the Fist of the North Star: TV Series Boxset 1 and Fist of the North Star: TV Series Boxset 2.
This set contains another 36 episodes on another 5 discs.
Picking up from the previous set, Ken continues his fight against the South Star and sees him fighting Ryuga and Raoh as two of the bigger main battles in these episodes. This set of episodes closes off chapters 3 AND 4 of the series; the next set will be all of the episodes of the "second" Fist of the North Star series (Celestial Emperor and Land of Asura arcs).

Just as good as the previous sets. If you're looking at vol 3, my guess is you've seen at least some of the first 2 volumes. What's included here is just as good. No visual anomalies, though you still have...
Greatest Anime with the Best Ending
First off, I have to say that it's absolutely great to see that Discotek Media has brought over the original Hokuto No Ken 1 series (The first 109 episodes). A lot of people who were unfamiliar with this anime in the USA now has the chance to witness a legendary anime. I've been a Fist of the North Star / Hokuto No Ken fan for the last 5 to 6 years. If you love martial arts, post apocalyptic settings, and a deep story woven in between this is for you. So much that was done in this show influenced much of the anime afterwards such as Dragon ball Z, Naruto, and etc. Considered one of the manliest animes, (alongside Sakigake Otokojuku, which is another underrated classic) the action and storylines presented in this anime will have you a fan instantly. This box set presents the concluding episodes to the series which leads up to one of the best endings I have seen from an anime. Pick this up while you can and support the people bringing you this great anime!

I love this series and it far exceeds any anime fan need for story action and romance the heir of hokotou shinkin always wins
