[[hardline]]
* ''Fist of the North Star'' - A weekly AnimatedAdaptation by Creator/ToeiAnimation that aired from 1984 to 1988. The series follows the manga's storyline closely for the most parts, with plenty of {{filler}} material added to prevent it from [[OvertookTheManga overtaking the original source]]. In Japan, the anime actually aired under two titles: the original ''Hokuto no Ken'' (109 episodes, covering the first half of the manga all the way to the final conflict with Raoh) and ''Hokuto no Ken 2'' (43 episodes covering the Celestial Emperor and Land of Shura arcs). The first 36 episodes were dubbed during the late 1990s by Creator/MangaEntertainment and shown on Showtime Beyond and Sci-Fi Channel UK. The remainder was released subbed-only via digital distribution and is currently available on DVD and Blu-ray [[note]]In Standard Definition, with all 152 episodes across 3 Blu-ray discs[[/note]] by Creator/DiscotekMedia.
* ''Fist of the North Star: The Movie'' - A 1986 animated film by Toei that loosely follows the manga's storyline from Kenshiro's origin story on how he got his seven scars to his first battle with Raoh. Many English-speaking anime fans were first exposed to the franchise in the form of its English dub by Creator/StreamlinePictures released during the early 1990s. It too is available on DVD and Blu-ray from Discotek.
* ''New Fist of the North Star'' (''Shin Hokuto no Ken'') - A three-part OVA series released between 2003 and 2004 set years after the end of the original manga.

** ''Legend of Toki'' (2008 [=OVA=]) - Centered around Toki, another of Kenshiro's adoptive brothers trained in ''Hokuto Shinken'', the [=OVA=] covers his origins, imprisonment at Cassandra and his duel with Raoh. This [=OVA=] introduces another CanonForeigner Sara, a medical doctor who diagnosed Toki of his failing health from radiation poisoning and assists him in his quest to use ''Hokuto Shinken'' as a healing technique rather than an assassination art.
** ''Legend of Kenshiro'' (2008 movie) - Effectively a {{Prequel}} to the manga, this film tells of the events following Yuria's kidnapping by Shin to Kenshiro's first meeting with Bat and Lin.
* ''Anime/DDFistOfTheNorthStar'' - A [[GenreShift complete shift in tone]], characters are portrayed as not-all-there SuperDeformed younger men in modern day Japan fighting not for the wasteland, but for a part-time position in a grocery store (and Yuria's heart). It features Kenshiro, Toki, Raoh and countless other post-apocalyptic thugs transplanted into a sitcom.
* ''Manga/FistOfTheBlueSky'' (''Souten no Ken'') - A 22-volume manga {{prequel}} series starring Kenshiro's uncle and namesake, Kenshiro Kasumi.
