Ep 36. Don't Look Back! Hate Only Evil and Strike Toki!!

As Kenshiro continues to search for his lost love Yuria, he comes across a village that is being terrorized by a group of bandits led by a man named Spade. The villagers are forced to pay tribute to the bandits, and those who cannot pay are killed or taken as slaves. Among the villagers is Kenshiro's friend Toki, who had been gravely injured by one of Spade's henchmen during a previous attempt to resist the bandits.

Kenshiro is determined to help the villagers and take down Spade and his men. He rallies the villagers and trains them in the art of Hokuto Shinken, teaching them how to defend themselves against the bandits. Meanwhile, Toki is being held captive by Spade, who hopes to use him as leverage against Kenshiro.

As the day of the final battle approaches, tensions rise between Kenshiro and Toki. Toki insists that they should take a more peaceful approach, while Kenshiro believes that they must use force to defeat the bandits. The two friends clash, but ultimately Kenshiro convinces Toki that they must do whatever it takes to save the villagers.

The battle is intense, with both sides taking heavy casualties. But Kenshiro and his allies prove to be too strong for Spade and his men, and they are ultimately defeated. Toki, who had been held in a nearby tower, breaks free and joins in the fight. He proves to be a valuable asset, using his knowledge of acupuncture to heal wounded fighters and keep them in the fight.

In the end, Kenshiro and his allies emerge victorious. Spade is defeated, and the villagers are finally able to live in peace without fear of being attacked by bandits. Kenshiro and Toki make amends, and the two of them continue on their journey towards finding Yuria.
