- Shin (シン)
- Shin is the successor of Nanto Koshū Ken (南斗孤鷲拳, "South Dipper Lone Eagle Fist"), one of the martial art styles within the Nanto Rokusei Ken. He bears the destiny of the Star of Martyrdom (殉星 Junsei), who is destined to live and die for love.
- Shin secretly desired Kenshiro's fiancée, Yuria, ever since they first met. After the nuclear war and the death of Master Ryuken, Shin was persuaded by Jagi to challenge Kenshiro and take Yuria for himself. Shin paralyzed Kenshiro and engraved the seven scars on his chest as a reminder of his defeat, leaving him to die in the wasteland.
- During the following year, Shin and his army conquered the former Kanto region. He took the name of King and built Yuria the city of Southern Cross to win her affection. However, his continued atrocities only drove her to commit suicide by leaping from the balcony of Shin's palace. Yuria survived thanks to the intervention of the Nanto Goshasei, who arrived at Southern Cross to save Yuria from Raoh's impending invasion. Shin entrusted Yuria to the Goshasei's custody and allowed his reputation to be tarnished by pretending he was her murderer.
- It was after this that Kenshiro infiltrated Shin's headquarters and the two fought once again. Driven by Shin's words after their first battle, Kenshiro defeated him and struck his vital points in the shape of Shin's emblem - the 'Bloody Cross'. Maintaining that Yuria had died, Shin refused to die by Ken's hand and took his own life by leaping from the palace balcony, as Yuria did before him.
TV series
- In the TV series, Shin's empire is notably larger compared to the manga. In addition to his four lieutenants, (Heart, Spade, Diamond, and Club), it also includes the God's Army organization, Jackal's gang and a host of original characters. After Kenshiro continued to defy his army, Shin assembled his remaining troops and launched an all-out assault against Kenshiro as he approached Southern Cross. After Kenshiro is presumed dead, Balcom seizes the opportunity to plot a mutiny against Shin, and although Shin defeats him, the city is destroyed in the chaos. With Shin vowing to build another Southern Cross, Yuria decides to commit suicide from the palace balcony and prevent the violence repeating itself.
1986 movie
- In the 1986 movie, Yuria mentions that Kenshiro and Shin grew up together and had a brotherly friendship. Shin's army is defeated by Raoh's troops who invade Southern Cross before Kenshiro's arrival - whilst Shin is defeated off-screen by Raoh himself. When Kenshiro finally arrives, Shin is already dying from his previous fight with Raoh, but in his final moments he reveals that Raoh has taken Yuria to Cassandra.
