This Japanese collectible card game, based on the iconic post-apocalyptic manga and anime franchise Hokuto no Ken (Fist of the North Star), was published by Southern Cross Management and released in Japan in January 2006. The game draws on the cast of the original 1983 manga by Buronson and Tetsuo Hara, featuring character cards for heroes and villains including Ken, Raoh, Shin, Amiba, and many others, each reflecting the series' martial-arts combat and its ruined-world setting.
Individual character-themed card products from the 2006 release appear on the secondary market, confirming the game reached retail in Japan. However, specific details about gameplay mechanics, set sizes, or any expansion releases have not been widely documented in English. The franchise itself has inspired multiple card and collectible products over the decades, and this 2006 Southern Cross Management release stands as one of the more obscure among them, noted primarily by collectors of Japanese franchise card games.
