In an interesting attempt to stir up some pre-release movie publicity for "True Saviour Legend - Fist of the North Star - The Legend of Raoh II: Fierce Fighting Arc", some 3000 hardened fans turned up to pay their respects at a funeral in Japan for Fist of the North Star's very own genocidal warrior dictator Raoh; obviously, this is a fictional character, though one that has been a part of Japan's pop culture since 1983.
