Data

(南斗獄屠拳 South Dipper Hell Slaughter Fist).

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