Strongest Under Heaven 3: The Third Strike (aka S.U.H. 3) is an anime that was written, directed, and created by Akira Jotaro based off the game Strongest Under Heaven 3, which is also the sequel to Strongest Under Heaven 2: The Second Kick. Taking place two years from the events of Strongest Under Heaven 2: The Second Kick, the story is once again a slightly modified version of Hinamori and Ryo's stories mixed with some other characters. The story now takes place in the USA where Hinamori went to go to college but is tempted into joining the Strongest Under Heaven tournament.
