At least two Nyoninzō (女人像 Woman Statue) appear in the Hokuto no Ken universe. Both are mystical objects that hold knowledge (聖櫃 seihitsu) of the Hokuto Sōke and Hokuto Shin Ken from millennia past. Their appearances derive inspiration from Juichimen Kannon, who in Buddhist lore is an incarnation of Kannon, the Bodhisattva of Mercy, and is a form to aid salvation for those reborn in the realm of Ashuras, in where neverending conflict and violence defines their lives.
