* ''[[Fist of the North Star]]'' (''Hokuto no Ken'') has a series of spinoff works known as the ''Hokuto no Ken Gaiden'' series, which centers around side-characters from the original manga, depicting what happened to them prior to the events of ''Hokuto no Ken'', although they do deviate from canon a bit. Almost all of them, with the exception of ''Yuria Gaiden'', were published in ''Weekly Comic Bunch'' (the manga anthology that serializes ''[[Fist of the Blue Sky|Souten no Ken]]'') at the time the ''Legends of the True Savior'' movies were released.
