Violence Jack is a Japanese manga, written and illustrated by Go Nagai from 1973 until its conclusion in 1990, which has been credited with introducing the post-apocalyptic genre to the mediums of manga and anime. A set of sagas from the manga were adapted in three independent original video animations (OVAs) released in 1986, 1988, and 1990.
Lovers separated during the apocalypse are swept up in a vicious grudge match between the Slum King, ruler of the wasteland, and the immortal warrior Violence Jack.
After disasters have all but destroyed the Earth, leaving entire cities buried, one man named Violence Jack tries to avert a civil war brewing among the wretched inhabitants of a subterranean metropolis called Evil Town. The known world is now a nightmare after a series of natural disasters. Survivors struggle to survive the harsh conditions. Evil Town is divided into three warring factions each fighting for supremacy.
The survivors of Kanto's Hell Earthquake built a new city and christened it "Hope Town". However, this peaceful town becomes a nightmare when it's raided by the motorcycle gang, "Hell's Wind". They abduct the women while the remaining townsfolk are left helpless against them. Meanwhile, a boy, Saburo, meets Jun. Jun's lover was previously murdered, and the duo help one another to fight against Hell's Wind. The battles are getting more and more difficult, but with the appearance of Violence Jack, the citizens seem to gain the upper hand against Hell's Wind.
