Like one "fight anime", like another? Not necessarly. At least this one tries to have a plot line... somewhat. But I still like it.. so shoot me.

Aided by their friends Polnaref and Abdul, the four warriors each command a powerful Stand -- a projection of their fighting will -- in tune with the cards of the Tarot. But Dio himself is said to possess a powerful and mysterious Stand known only as “The World”. Can Jotaro match Dio’s power with his “Star Platinum” and save his mother?

Araki, author of Jojo, was grealty influenced by Buronson's syle.

the character design are similar... and the violence too :P

They also have similar stories that take the main character around the world to meet new enemies and new friends, to become more powerful and, finally, to defeat the final boss.

In the future, the world as we know it is inhabited by humans and Darkstalkers -- beings of the night who descended upon the planet and stole away the light of the sun.

However, amongst the dark there are those who fight for good, such as the hybrid Donovan and two sisters who are out for revenge. With the coming of the ultimate demon Pyron, the humans and Darkstalkers must band together one last time to save the planet from his wrath...

Darkstalkers, based upon the fighting game of the same name, is mostly about action. Fist of the North Star is --all-- about action. As the name implies, fists will fly -- might want to watch out for the occasional exploding head, though.

Although Bobobo~bo Bo~bobo is more comedic and bizarre than Fist of the North Star,both shows have one thing in common : a mighty hero and young companions,one male,one female.
