It was just in the last few weeks I recalled the manly awesomeness known as the opening theme to Hokuto no Ken, Ai o Torimodose!!. I watched the entire first and second seasons of the 1984 anime when I was 6 years old and learned a bunch of people-exploding moves from Kenshiro. Oh man, good times, very good times.
I was ecstatic to hear Ai o Torimodose!! during the Lucky☆Star OVA, especially since it was sung by the Lucky Channel duo, Akira-sama and her lovely assistant, Sebastian Minoru-kun. I’d been planning to put up the lyrics to the original version of the song anyways.
Recover Love!!

You are Shock; the sky falls with love
You are Shock; it falls into my chest
Even if my passionate heart is bound by chains, they’re useless now
Just by one of my fingertips, those who obstruct me are down on the ground
