Noteworthy only because it is used more than once by Kenshiro and is an extremely straightforward maneuver in spite of its elaborate name. Does not even use any of the body's pressure points. Kenshiro uses this attack at least three times: once against one of [[Shin]]'s men, a second against Taki's murderer/ambusher and the last time against [[Kiba Daiō]]. | ||

:Kentō Shadan is the most powerful attack when facing the Rashō of Hokuto Ryuken. Ken uses this technique—a swift vertical chop with the hand—to weaken Kaio's block and critically injure his arms, and it was also the decisive attack in their final battle, turning around a fight that had previously been in Kaio's favor. It is therefore considered to be a very powerful form of attack. | :Kentō Shadan is the most powerful attack when facing the Rashō of Hokuto Ryuken.

:The ultimate Hokuto Shinken technique, which had never before been mastered by anyone in all 1,800 years of the style. Kenshiro was the first to master it, followed by Raoh. Ken achieved this by becoming consumed with sorrow to the point where he had achieved communion with the deathless absolute emptiness or void spoken of in Buddhism. At times it enables him to be at one with the spirits of deceased fighters (Toki, the Nanto Rokusei Warriors), and in the second series, it enables his spirit to fight Kaio even though he is in a coma (following the first fight with Kaio, after Shachi escapes with his body). Its mastery was perfected after Kenshiro learned the secrets of the Hokuto Souke in Tasieiden, Shura, in the second TV series. | :The ultimate Hokuto Shinken technique, which had never before been mastered by anyone in all 1,800 years of the style.
