Yeah, his performance was terrible and hammy at times, I thought. He only looked the part.

Must be that physical and mental abuse is a necessary aspect of martial arts training in the HnK universe. And yet it’s evidently necessary to survive that “tough love” development process without losing one’s compassion for the rest of humanity if one is to master the highest techniques and become the successor. Spoiler: Raoh becomes drunk with power and only belatedly recovers his humanity. Jagi becomes drunk with power but is never humane; he’s just a bad dude. Kenshiro and Toki stay compassionate throughout their lives.
