The Falco and later Shura stuff has the disadvantage of following what is best described as Peak Fiction (it is still one of the best arcs in a shounen fighting manga ever) but it's still good enough that even with the cracks forming in the foundation, it's still very well done work. The only issue is that the manga and anime were so popular at this point, that despite the desire of the authors to end it, they were essentially being forced to keep it going.
Also, you can see the evolution in the art, particularly as Kenshiro goes from resembling Bruce Lee to an Asian Sylvester Stallone, right down to wearing shades like Cobra. Arguably this is where the art is at its most detailed. |

Still glad you're still doing these reviews, even though we peaked and going down hill from here it's not that steep compared to a lot of other pieces of media.
