Shuu's Death - Fist of the North Star

[@mephosto]

fist of the north star, you hyper violent, hyper masculine collection of badasses, how do you always bring tears to my eyes?

[@masaruten]

This is one of the most heart wrenching moments in shounen manga...the death of a true man, who took all the grievances of the world on his back, with a smile.

[@lupinvash3]

Hopefully you watch or read One Piece and saw the death of Kozuki Oden. That death made me think of this.

I didn't understand a single word. But I could feel how epic this was. Man, this anime rocks.

[@namename-wm2vz]

Both Caesar and Shu died under a stone. And after that protagonists cryed their name

[@atodag728]

Of course there are evil characters, plenty of them. The imposter of toki, the jackal, the 4 guys working for shin, those army men who believe they are chosen ones, the warden of cassandra, and of course Jagi. But the "big bosses", like raoh, souther, and those three hokuto brothers on the other continent (forgot the names) are always more "human" than those, despite terrible things some of them did.

[@BeanMan157]

well , jojo has a lot of hnk influence (jonathan is a ripoff of kenshiro , acording to araki) so its normal to find a lot of similar things

[@jackflowt]

Manly tears were shed that day 😭

[@skyatianlan2356]

Manly tear, no shame

[@atodag728]

Hell no! Souther is not the most evil one, there are plenty opponents of ken who are worse than him. I assume you know Souther's background story. He did some terrible things but he's not really evil by nature unlike some others. Ken chose to use a painless attack on him is a proof too, ken always makes the bad guys suffer real pain and fear. And his soul even appears with toki, shuu, raoh and some other major characters when Ken and Yuria finally have a marriage ceremony.

[@lupinvash3]

It's why I didn't like any of the movies and chose to stick with the tv series. Especially when it showed Souther's backstory of what made him what he was.

[@rogueeleven8372]

I can't handle Jiraya's second death....

[@federicorazzoli495]

Shu offered his sight to Souther. Souther killed his wife and his son. With a single attack, Souther defeated Shu and injuried him in a way that he could never use his technique again. Finally, Shu died as a slave, building Souther's pyramid. He appeared as a great warrior, and he was if you consider that he was blind. But he's a tragic character, and his life was an uninterrupted series of sacrifices and defeats. In the long term, his only merit was to awaken Ken's anger. And Ken involuntarily highlighted this, by using Shu's technique to spill Souther's blood, because Shu couldn't hit him at all.

[@acereporter73]

I remember crying when Rei died in the 1986 movie. Some gut wrenching feeling here. And to remind some out there: The name "Souther" is the English conversion of the original Japanese term. A lot of Japanese words are hard to interpret into English. They use a different set of phonetics. And regarding the shortened story compared with the series... IT'S A MOVIE. There is a lot of material to compress into a feature film.

[@harleyspawn]

Oh, you made Kenshiro shed a tear? You done fucked up Souza. You done fucked up big time.

[@aonbrogan8266]

I don't even need the subs to cry. I know what's happening.

[@banymany7444]

My pet rock died yesterday... ...she stopped moving

[@aonbrogan8266]

Think about it like this. Kenshiro is the champion of good and kindness of the world. He would without question choose his life over even the weakest of individual's. Yet when Shuu died he couldn't help himself. Souther said "If you take one step towards Shuu I will slaughter all of them." and Kenshiro still ran after his friend in his dying moments. That's the sheer sorrow he felt for Shuu, he would risk dozens of lives to be with his friend in his final moments. *THAT* is a true friend.

[@brothersofwrath4785]

Underrated

[@quillsomething9465]

Kenshiro emotionally yells "SHUUU" but his mouth is not.

[@DMAN99]

Let your tears out. Only Real Men can cry. These tears are inspiring others. THESE TEARS INSPIRE ALL.

[@Sunkist02]

OMG I cried and I never saw this anime before but this Shuu guy is awesome he got stabbed in the chest with a spear and he is still holding a huge freaking rock thing now that is badass!

[@jtmarquez]

Kenshiro had to go through a series of fights when he was very young to become Fist of the North Star, and the penalty for losing is death. Kenshiro lost to Shu, and Souther wanted to kill Ken for failing his trials. Kenshiro thanked Shu for answering his challenge, but Shu stopped them from killing Ken by sacrificing his eyes because he saw something good and kind in Ken.

[@lewisaino]

In a way Shuu saved Shura .

[@RomulusJr]

SHEZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA oh wait, wrong anime

Well, neither is better than the other. They are both excellent for the times they were made in, and good in different ways.

Shu is so underrated. I know he's not as iconic as Rei, Shin, and Souther, but he was just such a likable character.

[@ghostofshadow7897]

I think he is iconic shin,Rei overrated

[@TetraBBM]

I've watched both versions and honestly enjoyed them both equally, you need to watch the original before this one, the original it pretty much enhances the feel for the newer version. The music for this scene is amazing and you cannot tell me that when listening to the song you cannot picture this scene it captures the emotion of the scene.It may not be considered better than the original but it does a pretty damn good job with handling the emotion. And a fine job at making me shed manly tears

[@Frantyx]

I like this setting of the Souther fight over the original. it has a more darker/depressing feel to it, especially whe. Shuu dies

[@darkvision2566]

His death is already sad enough... but what killed me.. is that when he was about to die, he could actually see... not cool man :' (

[@floatingcloud94]

I get goose bumps with this scene alwys 😭😭

[@lupinvash3]

He is one of the main 6 Nanto masters in Fist of the North Star. He originally served Souther, but went against him. He happened to become friends with Kenshiro. When Souther went on his conquest, Shuu stood up to him, but sacrificed himself to save his villagers.

[@TheGroumpfy]

But they all had a reason to do so, it's not like they were born to burn puppies. Amiba was insecure of his weakness, Jackal did it to survive, Shin's men didn't really have the choice since they were under Shin's command, same thing for Uighur which was intimdated by Raoh. I believe the whole point of the series is to show how people can fall into brutality and evil in a world like that. And if we had to compare, IMO Souther is the most fucked up bastard...Maybe tied with Jagi.

[@Bryan-gq9jj]

Exactly Goku21060, most wise sage of KZbin commenters. Even though he never said you shouldn't cry, the first guy said LOL, the second said he was crying, so I said that only real men cry and that "these" tears are inspiring others and that they inspire all. I'm refering to Kenshiro's tears, tears that have in fact inspired many over the years. So basically what i'm saying, Goku21060 is that really, your response to my response is kind of stupid, considering I was just having fun.

[@PrestonGarveyofthesettlements]

Because every man needs to cry once in a while. I'm crying....

[@LEGOMANIAC419]

@AdultXanxus The song throughout the scene is "Where Te Lights Are"

[@TheJorus]

It's a scientifically proven fact that people who cry when shit hits the fan, use that crying to cope with the situation. They get over it easier. Men who do not cry get traumatized easier. Therefore, crying is not weakness, it's great strength.
