    (南斗獄屠拳 South Dipper Prison Slaughter Fist).
    
    The technique Shin used against Kenshiro when he took Yuria away from him. A flying kick which temporarily disables the enemy by slicing the tendons in their limbs. In the anime series, Shin performs this technique against Ken during their rematch, but it proves ineffective the second time around.
    It is renamed Nanto Gokusatsu Ken (南斗獄殺拳, South Dipper Prison Murder Fist) in the 1980s anime series and movie because the kanji (to) could cause offense to Burakumin butchers.[1]
