	The original [[wikipedia:One-shot (comics)\|one shot]] prototype of ''Hokuto no Ken'', published in the April 1983 edition of ''Fresh Jump'', was set in 1980's Japan and told the story of a teenager by the name of {{nihongo\|[[Kenshiro\|Kenshiro Kasumi]]\|霞拳四郎\|Kasumi Kenshirō}}, the successor of the "''[[Hokuto Shin Ken]]''" martial arts style, a deadly style which kills or cripples opponents internally by striking [[Keiraku Hiko\|pressure points]]. Kenshiro's main adversaries in this incarnation of the story were a rival martial arts school known as the {{nihongo\|''[[Taizanji Kenpo]]''\|泰山寺拳法\|\|"[[wikipedia:Mount Tai\|Taishan]] Temple Martial Arts"}}, a secret organization of assassins with influence over the Japanese government. Kenshiro's girlfriend, [[Yuki]], becomes a witness in one of the organization's assassinations and is subsequently killed by the culprit named [[Goda]], with Kenshiro being framed for the crime. This event serves as a catalyst for Kenshiro's war against the Taizanji organization.

This event serves as a catalyst for Kenshiro's war against the Taizanji organization.

	A second one-shot, titled ''Hokuto no Ken II'', was published in the June 1983 issue of ''Fresh Jump''. Both pilots were collected in the second collected volume of ''Tetsu no Don Quixote'' (Tetsuo Hara's prior manga series before ''Hokuto no Ken''). The plot of the second pilot follows from the first, with a slightly older Kenshiro (wearing a Mad Max-type leather costume similar to that of the later series) aiding a pair of escaped Taizan assassins and battling the Taizanji's ultimate assassin, Kinbu Baiken.
