Mang Kuangyun

Máng Kuáng-Yún (traditional Chinese: 芒 狂雲Japanese: Bō Kyōun)
(c.v. Kiyoyuki Yanada)

Ling Wang.

Commonly known as Líng-Wáng (traditional Chinese: 靈王; Japanese: 霊王 Reiō; literally: "Spirit King"), Mang Kuang-Yun mastered the forbidden art of "Pressure Point Displacement" (秘孔変位, Hikō Hen'i) during his Hokuto Sonkaken training. Bears the nickname "mad dog".

He was promised Pān Yù-Líng by her adoptive father Wēng Hóng-Yuán for an assassination of Qing Bang's head boss. He suppressed Pān Yù-Líng's memory because of his unrequitted love for her and due to his resentment for Kenshirō Kasumi, who was not only Japanese but also capable of wooing her. Kuáng-Yún dislikes the Japanese due to Japan's role in partitioning and subjugating China in a time of imperialism.

He got his wish to "fight someone worthy of taking my life" granted by the Old Taoist Fortune Teller. By the time he had met Kenshiro, he was already dying from a slow decaying death from his self inflicted pressure points. He fights and loses to Kenshirō Kasumi and later dies due to gunshot wounds from Tian Xue-Fang's men. In his death, he reveals that Yù-Líng was not really killed, but actually had memories of her past suppressed.

He has a heightened sense of hearing much like Kenshirō Kasumi's hearing.

Trivia

• Though he physically resembles Raoh, the role of Máng Kuáng-Yún in the story is more similar to Shin from the sequel, Hokuto no Ken. Both are introduced as martial artists able to equal the protagonist (in Shin's case, he was supposedly above Kenshiro due to defeating him in a previous encounter), neither are able to win the love of the protagonist's love interest, both ultimately give up the protagonist's love interest, and both are defeated by the protagonists of their respective series but do not die directly from Hokuto Shinken.
