To protect your love with me,
you set off on a journey
And lost sight of tomorrow
I never want to see that your face has forgotten how to smile

Are you alright?
Some water...
No, I'm fine. Thank you.
Where is Kenshiro and Rei?
They're foraging for food
And for a vehicle to carry you.
I see.
THE DEATH OMEN STAR SHINES!
KEN-OH: DO YOU CONTROL EVEN DEATH!
The enemy is a God...
A man that doesn't even fear God in order to satisfy his ambition.
Raoh...
What is an art of assasination?
I'd like to ask you both.
The wild tiger can sense the energy emanating from you.
Assume that the fight will end instantaneously.
Defeat this tiger as if you were to assassinate your enemy.
Incredible!
He froze the tiger with only the energy radiating from his body.
Kenshiro, it seems the tiger had no respect for you.
It's proof that the succession should be mine and not yours.
No, Kenshiro should be feared more.
Before him, the tiger resigned itself to death.
But before Raoh, it feared death.
Raoh's art cannot be called an assassination art.
Still, his is a powerful art. Just what have you become...
Raoh...
First, we need supplies and a vehicle.
We might find some in this village.
This is horrific...
Hey! Just who did...
Ken-Oh...
Ken-Oh's assault squadron...
Where did they go?
Westward...
West...
West, that's towards Airi's village!
Ken, I'm going back to the village.
If Ken-Oh's troops have ravaged through this tiny village,
who knows what they'll do to the village where Airi and Lin are.
Right.
The inevitable has arrived.
Raoh is finally on the move.
Alcor.
A star that shines alongside the Big Dipper.
Also known as the Death Omen Star...
It's said that death will arrive within that year to those who see.
Who would have thought that I'd be staring at it like this...
What is it, Toki-san?
What's on your mind?
No, it's nothing.
By the way, you look so much like Yuria...
I'm sure Raoh would also be shocked if he saw you too.
Say, Toki-san.
This Yuria-san, whom I resemble...
What kind of person was she?
She was the only woman in this world I've ever loved.
But, Yuria-san and Ken were...
No, not just me. Even Raoh.
Raoh, too?
Yuria was our youth. And, by that point...
maybe Kenshiro and Raoh were already destined to fight.
Yuria, sister! Is the origami done?
Almost done.
See?
Wow! Great!
I won't let it go...
I'm not going to let Kenshiro have you.
Forget about Kenshiro, and love me from this day on!
Don't be ridiculous. Please, let me go!
What was that?
Ken!
Take your hands off.
Is that Kenshiro?
Toki...
Impressive, Toki. You caught me from behind.
A man distracted by a woman is no challenge to sneak up on.
If you continue this recklessness...
I'll take you on, on behalf of Kenshiro.
What?
Forget it. I don't feel like butting heads with you.
But, remember this!
I'll be the one to hold everything in my hands.
Protecting someone from afar, out of love...
Can't beat that...
Ken, Shin, Toki-san, and Raoh...
Every man who knew Yuria-san, they all...
There's no way I can compete with that.
Mamiya-san...
But...
But it's okay. I'm like that star.
A tiny star...
shining quietly alongside the Big Dipper.
Mamiya-san, you can see it? You can see that star?
Yes, clearly.
I'm taking a walk. Ken and Rei might be back.
Unbelievable.
She sees it too?
The Death Omen Star...
Who's there? Is someone there?
What a find!
I'm Seeker, with Ken-Oh's recon squad.
You're Mamiya from Kenshiro's gang, right?
If I bring back your head on a plate...
it would bring Ken-Oh-sama great pleasure!
Now, Mamiya-san, could you take me back to Kenshiro?
It's no use running!
Need to get some distance from Toki.
Nice try!
Look what you've done to my precious men.
But this is it for you!
Simply killing you would be no fun.
I'll kill you slowly and painfully.
That long tongue of yours must get in the way.
Ken!
Are you alright?
Yes, somehow.
My eyeballs are all spinning around and around and...
But now I'm through...
I can't believe Raoh's reach come all the way out here.
Ken!
Where's Rei?
He headed for the village where Airi and the kids are waiting.
This is...
Some sort of bad omen?
Lin-chan?
Yo, Airi-san.
Big news! My brother and the others will be back soon!
Ken, too?
Yes, plus Toki-san and Mamiya-san. Everyone's fine.
A traveller just brought us a letter.
Let's see...
- Bat, let me see! - Here.
Hooray!
Ken's coming back, everyone!
It's blooming... It's starting to bloom!
Look, Pel, it's blooming!
Let's greet Ken together!
Hey!
What is it, Bat?
Ken's group says they're bringing Toki back soon!
What? Really?
Are Mamiya-san and Rei okay?
Of course!
- That's great... - Yeah...
Hey, we've got trouble!
We're under attack!
Ken-Oh's squad is attacking!
Ken-Oh's squad? Airi-san!
Airi-san, hurry up, come on!
It's over... It's no use running.
Brother...
No! Don't say that...
Hurry up, let's get out of here!
No, it's no use...
It's just no use hiding.
Airi-san!
Today, I can clearly see the Big Dipper.
Even the tiny star that shines alongside it...
Well... I better hurry.
Mamiya's village is attacked by Ken-Oh!
But Lin's trust in Kenshiro and her courage yields to no evil!
On the next episode of Fist of the North Star!
THOSE WHO FEAR THE REAPER!
LISTEN TO THE VOICE OF LIN'S FIERY SOUL!
Those Who Fear the Reaper!
Listen to the Voice of Lin's Fiery Soul!
I will protect the code of the North Star.
