This is a new version of a venerated martial arts anime based on a venerated martial arts manga.
I watched a few back in the day because it was so influential on the martial genre but never got into it because the heroes were so steroidal and the fight scenes seemed absurd to me then. Little did I know that this was pivotal in how anime fights would be choreographed. This new series has updated animation and starts fresh.
It's post-apocalyptic world with a Road Warrior vibe. The manga began in '83, hot on the heels of Road Warrior ('81). The original anime was 84-88 with 152 episodes. Like the live action One Piece, I'll go for this fresh one because who has time for all that vintage stuff?
It's sanguineous. You can get that from the trailer. I do like Ken. He's not at all like our Ken. He's like the polar opposite. Perhaps that's what I like about him.
I will watch more. There's only a few eps up now and it's one of those weekly update shows, which I'm down for.
