Air dates of the latest anime in the immortal Fist of the North Star franchise have emerged, due October; the title is an adaptation of manga sub-story 北斗の拳 天の覇王ラオウ外伝 / Hokuto no Ken – Ten no Haou – Raou Gaiden, focussed unsurprisingly on Raoh’s antics, with him centre stage.
The series will air weekly starting in October, with the following dates given:
MXTV 10/3 Fri 22:30-22:58
Aichi TV 10/3 Fri 25:28-25:58
Osaka TV 10/7 Tues 26:05-26:35
This from the newly opened official site. Interesting to see how this turns out, as the last OVA seemed a little weak. At least it isn’t an another OAD.
I kept up with this series and suddenly uploads just stopped happening. Was the show canceled or something?
Instead of the Hakuretsuken we’ll always see the Mouso Ten Sei of Raoh.
Seriously? How many episodes will this have?
What is the story? Does it continue from the 2nd series? Argh… so many questions…
Who is releasing?
Details are a little scarce:
Nobody says how many episodes it will have; my guess is 13.
The story is based on a five volume manga of the same name which finished last year; it concerns how Raoh ascends to power. The manga is basically a self contained story within the same universe as the main story.
Production appears to be by Satelight.
