Ranma 1/2 versus First of the North Star

So? Which side wins? Have it just like the DBZ versus Ranma threads.

Now I've only watched the movie of FOTNS. But I say Ranma could win against what I've seen. True the main guys technique is more leathal. But I don't think he matches Ranma in speed and overall skill. He can't perform one of those finger of deathg things if he's already been blasts into the sunset.

Ranma can do moko-takabisha's and hiryu-shoten-ha. And, from what I've seen, he moves faster too, I think.

The other guy, I haven't seen him do any chi attacks yet. Does he?

In the manga and TV series they face a guy from Rei's school that can copy any martail arts technique he has seen once. And proceeds to kick ass after duplicating the techniques used by one of Ken's "Brothers".

Unknown, ken usually gauges someone's power by playing punching bag for a while, and learning their technique and figuing just how to inflict the most damage through his North Star Di-Mak technique.

Rei on the other hand uses Southern Cross, his Chi is entirely focused on himself, allowing him to travel at very fast ground speed, and his body becomes as strong as stone, while his fingernails are as strong as diamond. (sharp as diamond too.)

Uhm.. perhaps you missed the part near the end of the movie where Ken and Raoul were tearing the city they were in apart, launching ki blasts, etc?

Ken's got a technique comparable to a few of Ranma's (no HSH though), however unlike Ranma he only has to score a single hit to win.

That would be after Roaul (King Fist) has killed Rei in "Diamond body" form right?

Well I haven't seen that far into the series or manga. In the movie he killed Rei by sticking a finger through him, then fought with Ken.

I remember chi-blasts. One against a guy who turned his body into steel... But even at the end the chiblasts didn't seem to have a raduis and strenght of Ranma's blast...That went though an island.

Ranma's blast hardly went through anything approaching the entire island.

Furthermore the end of the movie showed Kenshiro to be flight capable, and my point still stands. Ranma will need to wear Kenshiro down, whereas all he has to do to win is land a single hit.

And if I remeber from the movie and series the guy survived a skyscraper falling onto him Kenshiro that is

Ranma will probably lose, unless he can get a crash course in his enemies fighting styles before the fight, even then, they only have to get lucky once.
He does have a much better shot than anyone from Dbz though, they would try to block or laugh off the first punch, and then explode.

I pointed out DBZ arrogance factor over in space battles and they came up with the BS arguement that you can't kill DBZ character's because they always wish themselves back....

Fucking dumb asses.

Provided of course Kenshiro's predominately pressure-point based style will work on aliens. Of course against Krillen, Chi-Chi or or the other human cast members we get the traditional splat.

Kenshiro's techniques have worked against things with much grosser physical differnences than that of a Saiyajin. I think it was in the Graphic Novel "Night of the Jackal" that he used his techniques successfully on a monstous humanoid, at least 30 feet tall.

Or the creations of the asshole that impersonated his brother.

Pretty much everything I remember seeing him use his techniques on was human at some time or another. And I don't believe any difference in power points was mentioned.

Post by **The Yosemite Bear** » 2002-10-19 06:48am

Jacty, Roual, and others have hidden/moved all of their powerpoints.

consequences · Post by **consequences** » 2002-10-20 01:59pm

Over 30 feet tall, and you consider that to be basically human? WTF?!!

Post by **The Yosemite Bear** » 2002-10-20 02:14pm

Fuck Ken can find power points in the Inorganic (Remembering the time He made a tank, a warmachine, and some lowgrade mecha go boom)

SylasGaunt · Post by **SylasGaunt** » 2002-10-21 02:36am

Something makes me glad I haven't gotten this far yet.. why the heck is a mecha running around in FotNS?

Post by **The Yosemite Bear** » 2002-10-21 03:20am

It's a fucked up construct by Shin's empire, one of those gas powered, vaugly humaniod, constructs of the gangs that Shin had working for him.
