you set off on a journey
And lost sight of tomorrow
I never want to see that your face has forgotten how to smile

A long time ago, there were guards that defended
the six gates of the imperial palace.
They stood atop the 108 styles of the South Star Sacred Fist,
and were known as the South Star Six Sacred Fists.
But after the nuclear war, the South Star Six Sacred Fists collapsed.
The seeds of tragedy were thus scattered throughout the world.
Rei, the man of the Star of Justice.
Yuda, the man of the Star of Deception.
Was their battle also destined by the South Star?
YUDA OF THE SOUTH STAR CRIMSON CRANE FIST!
HIS BEAUTIFUL SMILE CALLS FOR TRAGEDY!
Tell me, elder.
What happened between Yuda and Mamiya?
Must you ask that?
I suppose I have no choice but to tell you...
About that nightmarish day.
It happened on Mamiya-san's 20th birthday.
- Happy birthday! - Happy birthday!
Thank you!
She was beautiful enough to make your heart burst.
Everyone was sure she'd have a happy future ahead of her.
Out of the way!
What are you...
Here she is! This is the woman, Yuda-sama!
Let me see.
She's gorgeous, even lovelier than the rumor said she was.
A woman worthy of receiving my love.
Fine, I'll take her.
What are you doing with our daughter?
- Mamiya! - Father, mother!
So you're her parents...
What are you doing?
No! No...
Let's go!
This way, you have no reason to come back!
It all happened in an instant!
All we could do was stand there and watch them leave.
And then, several days later...
From that day on, Mamiya-san abandoned her womanhood.
Mamiya...
Rei and Yuda had already met during their youth while training.
South Star Waterfowl Fist: Flying Swallow Flowing Dance!
- How amazing! - As beautiful as ever.
- Yuda-sama! - Yuda-sama!
What an oversight!
Even if it was just for a moment,
Rei's movements have stolen my soul.
For the first time in my life, I've recognized another's beauty...
Damn you, Rei!
I will never forget this humiliation!
Rei! One day, I will give you the ugliest,
most pitiful death ever!
There is only one secret pressure point...
capable of countering "Shinkesshu" the one Raoh had struck...
The pressure point, "Shinreidai!"
The pressure point that Toki struck revived Rei,
in exchange for intense pain.
He wagered his few remaining hours of life and all he was
to defeat Yuda.
Yuda... let's settle this!
First, let us see if you have earned the right...
to fight me in your physical state.
It's been a while. Let me see your South Star Waterfowl Fist?
Your form is sharper than ever.
You're next, Yuda.
Very well.
The Star of Justice is only a Star of Clowns!
Mere space dust in the shadow of the Star of Deception.
I'll crush you like a bug!
A scratch on my face!
A scratch on my gorgeous face!
You son of a bitch!
Yuda, the Star of Enchantment will never shine again.
South Star Crimson Crane Fist!
South Star Waterfowl Fist!
South Star Waterfowl Fist: Flight of the Red Sparrow!
- Yuda-sama! - Yuda-sama!
Why? You should've fallen apart, both physically and mentally!
What gives you so much...
What drives me is my love for Mamiya.
The flames in my soul.
You wouldn't understand a thing about love!
This is it for you.
Yuda...
Today, the Star of Enchantment will fall to hell!
You think you've defeated me?
My star shines with beauty and wisdom.
Do you think I came without a plan?
What?
What's that?
Save me! Save me!
Wow! That was close.
Rei.
What are you trying to pull? Yuda!
This ground will turn to quicksand and suck you in!
How's that? I doubt you can move.
The secret techniques of the South Star Waterfowl Fist...
lie in intricate footwork.
Now that your lower body is stuck in place,
you're like waterfowl without wings!
You will die an ugly death in my hands!
Rei!
The Star of Enchantment shines more beautifully in red!
The pathetic Star of Justice is merely a space dust!
Here I go, Rei!
Beat him, Rei! For Mamiya-san!
South Star Crimson Crane Fist Secret Technique:
Shock-Transmitting Rending Wave!
It's finally time to cut you into ugly pieces!
Every step I get closer, I'll slice you deeper!
Cut, cut, cut, cut!
Rei!
- Brother! - Don't lose, Rei!
Rei of the Star of Justice! You're just a pathetic clown.
You couldn't even save one woman's life!
Rei!
One more step...
One more step and you're finished!
The Star of Deception shines in the southern sky!
Here's the finishing strike!
South Star Crimson Crane Fist Secret Technique:
Blood-Tainted Beak!
What?
South Star Waterfowl Fist Secret Technique:
Soaring White Splendor!
That's impossible!
Rei!
You can't defeat me, Yuda.
- Ken. - Ken.
The battle's over.
What an oversight...
Once again, your techniques have stolen my soul.
But...
I won't die like this. Not like this!
Rei...
The man who's stronger, and more beautiful than I!
Yuda!
- Yuda-sama! - Yuda-sama!
Rei...
You were always in my soul.
I was always chasing after that vision of you,
and the beautiful dance of the South Star Waterfowl Fist!
Yuda!
But in the end, I couldn't surpass you!
I couldn't turn away from that vision!
When I feel something is beautiful with all my heart,
I am powerless before it. That is my weakness.
Ever since my heart was drawn to you,
the Star of Deception has been destined to be extinguished
by the Star of Justice.
Yuda...
Rei... you were the only man I've ever respected.
The strongest and the most beautiful man in the world.
At least let me die in your arms.
Yuda...
Yuda!
Yuda, you too were a lonely warrior.
But I'll join you soon.
Farewell, South Star Six Sacred Fist...
Crimson Crane master, Yuda of the Star of Deception.
Why do they have to spill each other's blood?
Somehow, it all went wrong.
Mamiya.
Mami-
Rei!
Looks like my time's finally up.
Rei.
Mamiya... Listen.
Live your life to the fullest until the Death Omen Star falls.
Even if just for a moment, live your life as a woman.
Pursue a woman's happiness!
Farewell!
Rei!
Stay back!
You must not come.
I don't want you to see me wither and die so pathetically!
Rei...
May you be happy, Mamiya.
Rei!
Rei, the man of the Star of Justice.
Your legend will live on forever.
Shu, a man who fell fighting for light, hope and future!
On the next episode of Fist of the North Star!
SHU OF THE SOUTH STAR WHITE HERON FIST!
THE HEAVENS ONLY BESTOW CRUEL DESTINIES!
Shu of the South Star White Heron Fist!
The Heavens Only Bestow Cruel Destinies!
I will avenge the tears of the Star of Benevolence.
