If you loved New Fist of the North Star: The Cursed City, try New Fist of the North Star: The Forbidden Fist

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Takashi Watanabe, and they sit in Action / Animation territory. If that's the register that drew you to New Fist of the North Star: The Cursed City, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What New Fist of the North Star: The Forbidden Fist is

You wake in the ruins of The Last Land where Kenshiro sealed the gates of the underworld. Sara tells you of a dying boy, Lord Doha, and a serum hidden beyond Cliffland. The safe route takes four days round trip and he’s already running out of daylight. You step onto the haunted cliff path anyway. Just as the demons begin circling, another warrior cuts through the mist vowing to claim his lost kin’s fate.
