Ryuken: "ok Toki today you're going to lean how to shoot rainbows and lasers that make people orgasm as they twist and explode" Toki: "..... yeah ok seems legit"
Not exactly. Toki is a genius and prodigy for a reason, creating his own style based on Hokuto Shinken is one of them. It's the only reason why Ryuken didn't try to seal his fist like he wanted to Raoh after Ken became the successor since his style is merely based on Hokuto Shinken, but not the same Hokuto Shinken.
14 years ago this video was posted to RU-vid. The internet was a new and wonderful place. Flash animation was long and memes were crafted with care and passion. Then came the dark times, before the coming of the Facebook and the Google. Now in the wasteland a lone hero still walks, surviving to punch things and make us proud!
Toki was originally meant to be the Hokuto Shinken successor, but then fell victim to radiation sickness. If he were not suffering from such, he could easily have defeated Raoh. Moments like this remind you of that fact.
He would have defeated Raoh, yes. Easily? Not by a longshot, as Raoh himself is an extremely capable Hokuto Shinken practicioner. I believe Toki would defeat Raoh, but I don't believe Toki would *easily* defeat Raoh, even if Raoh himself said so. Also, I'm also pretty sure he would have defeated Kaioh, Hyoh, and Kungfu Freddie Mercury (I forgot his name, lol).
well at any rate, of the two, i'd fear toki even more than kenshiro. kenshiro's style is at least understandable. toki's euphoric assassination style is just beyond creepy and terrifying.
I think this was the first real ki attack in the series. Not air pressure like with the Colonel or Rei, pure ki. Toki's introduction, and this move in particular, marks the point where shit REALLY starts to go down in HnK and Hokuto no Ken practitioners turn into unstoppable gods of death.
@@thegrob8892 They never specify what Toki's disease was, probably because they were trying to be sensitive about it. But it seemed like Toki was already ill before the bombs fell and the radiation from the fallout shelter door incident just greatly weakened his immune system and hastened his death.
Toki was a piece of art. he represented the tragic part of Hokuto Shinken, and he was too good for this world. Had he not been exposed to the radiation fallout while saving Ken & Yuria, he would have been the successor of Hokuto Shinken. His fights against Raoh were some of my favorites in the series. I always wished they had an alternate arc where he was able to retain the succession, it would have been a sight to see.
AchillesLastStand: Toki was the next step in human evolution. Seriously if he hadn't gotten sick, he would've been the most physically fit, mentally stable and philosophically enlightened human being ever born. Fate can be vindictive bitch though. The Salt Man: And let us not forget that he was one helluva a snappy dresser.
Jagi even though he was inferior to the ken,Raoh,Toki did fairly well. Lets not forget that Kenshiro,toki, and Raoh are the 3 greatest hokuto shin ken practicioners ever and Kenshiro and Raoh where able to learn the greatest technique of their martial art. There where also other hokuto shin ken students who did not last as long as Jagi did. Being number 4 to the thre greatest hokuto shin ken masters is no joke.
Absolutely one of my favourite portrayals of a ki attack in fiction. The rainbow aura, the chains crumbling, the perfect 90 degree angle projections. Flawless
I sometimes have to guess at what kind of beings these characters are once introduced. You wonder if they truly experienced some enlightenment, enough to demonstrate a better path for humanity to recognize and follow according to their hearts. If they really have something to share with the rest of the world Then you remember, right- this is fist of the north star we're talking about. A funny show about marital arts that explodes heads
It's confirmed that Toki is based on Jesus. Therefore, Toki is the definitive action badass Jesus Christ. 1:01 - Scratch that, Toki's not only a badass Jesus, but he's Ultraman too.
@@megapulsar9244 It looks like some kind of plastic film or foil that was animated in stop motion with progressively more holes punched in it until it ripped. That animation sequence was used to censor the dudes' bodies exploding.
It's because humanism worships what's human. Toki is based on Jesus, that's why he goes against what humanity overestimates so much. I don't remember this scene, but I bet they were looking for money and that's why they were doing that. Edit: It may be humanist in the sense it saves them from the pain, but I'll leave the other interpretation just in case.
For the king for the land for the mountains For the green valleys where dragons fly For the glory the power to win the black lord I will search for the emerald sword
This might be painless but is so disturbing that I find it cruel... feeling pleasure then die... is like, hey Ken makes you feel infinite pain but dude... you know you're going to die... with toki instead you feel pleasure then die... Still my fav is toki xDD
A piece of friendly advice: dont! The english voice dub is horrific (not as bad as the Swedish one, but still...). And for some insane reason they replaced the original soundtrack with drum and bass. Not to knock DnB which i like, but getting rid of the OST in all of its hammy glory, was just plain wrong. You can find the whole series subtitled on various anime streaming sites.
