Kenshiro's original voice was not in earlier 2011 anime version

Fist of the North Star manga.

The anime is an adaptation of the gag manga of the same title that has been directing the series.

The DD Fist of the North Star manga is set "in the year 199x, mankind was … not engulfed in the flames of nuclear war?

"In the 21st century, the characters of Fist of the North Star are living in peaceful Japan. In particular, Kenshirō is a convenience store worker, Raoh works at a factory, and wracked by illness, Toki is looking for work. The legend of the Fighting NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) North Star begins in the modern day."

The new anime will begin airing in Japan this spring.
