The two one-shots were well received in the reader's surveys of "Fresh Jump" and Tetsuo Hara was commissioned to turn "Hokuto no Ken" into a weekly series. Buronson was assigned to work with him as writer for the serialized version. The storyline was revamped, with the 1980s present-day setting in the original version replaced by a post-apocalyptic future world, and the protagonist Kenshiro, originally a teenager framed for a crime he did not commit in Hara's prototype story, became an older and more stoic hero with a tragic past. Originally, Hara and Buronson were contracted to do "Hokuto no Ken" for a three-year run, but due to its popularity and the publisher's demand, it was extended to a five-year run.
