Revision as of 01:09, 1 April 2011

(北斗琉拳 Big Dipper Gem Fist), also known as Hokuto Ryūka Ken (北斗劉家拳, Big Dipper Liu Family Fist) is a 1800 year old martial art from the Land of Asura. Its founder was Ryūō of the ancient Hokuto Sōke ruling line. This martial art makes use of the opponents 1,109 Keiraku Hakō pressure points. This martial art is known as an evil martial art; its use of one's Matōki aura can drive the practitioner insane with evil, turning them into a Majin (God of Black Magic).

Intro

Hokuto Ryūken is another rival style of Hokuto Shinken introduced during the latter half of the manga. Hokuto Ryūken is a branch of the original Hokuto family that was formed alongside Hokuto Shinken in the Land of Asura. The Hokuto Ryūken style utilizes 1,109 points of the keiraku hakō (経絡破孔, lit. "destructive channeling points"), in contrast to the 708 keiraku hikō points of the Shinken style.

The exact differences between the Ryūken style's hakō points and the Shinken style's hikō points are never fully explained. The users of Hokuto Ryūken are taught to fight with their "demonic fighting spirit" (魔闘気, matōki), driving them insane with madness. In the TV series, it is revealed that Hokuto Ryūken was founded by Ryūō of the Hokuto Sōke bloodline, the ancestor of Kaioh, Raoh and Toki. Hokuto Ryūken is also featured in Souten no Ken, where it is revealed that it was once known as Hokuto Ryūka Ken, one of the three subordinate branches of Hokuto Shinken.
