Nanto Gosha Sei

    From Hokuto no Ken Encyclopedia | HnKWiki

    The five members of the Nanto Gosha Sei (南斗五車星, "Five Chariot Stars of the South Dipper") are the sworn guardians of the Last Nanto General. They each represent one of the five cosmic elements (sea, earth, sky, fire, and wind) and are trained in their own unique fighting styles. Not much is elaborated on the origins of the Goshasei, other than the fact that Juza's style is a self-taught fist. The Goshasei are not counted among the 108 sects of Nanto Seiken.
