The fact this series has such a huge amount of tender moments is the best argument against those who accuse it of being shallow or one-dimensional. This series is VERY emotional. * When Fudoh absolutely demolishes Raoh and sends the fearsome and tyrannical The King of Fists reeling back in terror with the strength given by the love and courage of his (adopted) children. * * It gets better: Raoh explicitly told Fudou that this was a tune-up fight, a way to overcome the fear that he had felt against Kenshiro, and told his troops to shoot him were he to step over a line behind him... And it's Fudou simply pointing out the children, with stones in their hands, sadness yet resolve in the children's eyes -- the very same in Kenshiro's eyes -- that frightens Raou enough to step over the line, his attempted comeback completely backfiring. * When Lin-chan, but a nine-year old little girl, inspires an entire village to fight back against Raoh's Army through sheer bravery alone, which also doubles as her Crowning Moment of Awesome. * The outcome of Kenshiro and Raoh's final battle, in the 2007 film version: * Then Raoh, broken-and-defeated by Kenshiro, holds the younger warrior's face for the first and final time like a big brother: * The manga's ending: * * Before that, the dying Bat, wanting the amnesiac Lin to be with Kenshiro, tries feebly to insult her and pretends not to know her -- however, the warmth and kindness in his eyes actually causes her to regain her memories... and her love for him. * Kenshiro and Yuria's wedding at the beginning of Kenshiro Den. When the temple bells ring, and the spirits of Rei, Toki, Raoh, Jyuza, Souther, Shuh, Ryuga and Ryuken can be seen, giving their blessing on the wedding... Tender Tears were shed. * Any scene where you see fearsome warriors lay waste to hundreds of men single handedly laugh, play with, and take care of orphaned children like a gentle father. Rei, Shuh and Fudoh are prime examples of this. * Even though Hokuto Shinken can have one successor, and Kenshiro is not related to him by blood like Raoh is, Toki as a little boy selflessly saved the former as he lies injured in the bottom of a cliff. When asked by his adoptive father and teacher: * * To which the future doctor answers: * Rin-chan, but a nine-year-old little girl, chose to literally walk through fire than to submit to Raoh's rule, and inspired an entire city of men to stand up and fight against the invincible tyrant's army through sheer bravry alone; this doubles as her Crowning Moment of Awesome. * Kenshiro halts his journey to reunite with Yuria to save Fudoh, who is about to drown in quicksand to save his adoptive children, in spite of the fact the nigh-invincible Raoh is rapidly approaching the Nanto general and the love of his life. * When a child Yuria completely thaws the heart of a vile villain called Fudou the Ogre by letting him hold a newborn puppy. The man spends the rest of his days caring for orphans as their father.
