''Fist Master'' is an original animated series created by Stephen Krosecz, best known for his work on ''WebVideo/AbridgedOnTitan''. Krosecz wrote, animated, and provided most of the voices for the original run of the series, with a few others rounding out the cast, most notably Creator/TeamFourStar collaborators Jesse Nowack and Creator/AmberLeeConnors. The original version of the series ran for two episodes and released a preview of a third before Krosecz's increasing involvement with Team Four Star led him to put the series on hold, an announcement he made in August of 2017. In September of 2018 the first episode of a rebooted series premiered as part of an ongoing series under Team Four Star's umbrella that will feature more of the group's voice actors and resources.
[[KidHero Akio]] is a young boy being raised and trained by his legendary martial arts master Panchi, and he has a dream: to someday be one of the legendary warriors known as a "Fist Master", whose powers and abilities supposedly far surpass mortal limits. There are just a few issues that might get in the way, however: Akio doesn't want to actually hurt anyone and doesn't have an ounce of maliciousness in him, and also Panchi is a jaded jerkass who doesn't think much of Akio's dream or his potential as a martial artist, especially compared with Panchi's teen daughter Red, the group's voice of reason who is a promising martial artist and has quickly mastered a number of techniques including how to utilize her ki, something Akio has totally failed to do as of the start of the series.
Still, nothing can shake Akio's determination to be a Fist Master and as he undergoes Panchi's grueling training and interacts more with the various powerful fighters around him, he might get a chance to see if he has what it takes... if he survives the experience.

''Fist Master'' is an original animated series created by Stephen Krosecz, best known for his work on ''WebVideo/AbridgedOnTitan''. Krosecz wrote, animated, and provided most of the voices for the original run of the series, with a few others rounding out the cast, most notably Creator/TeamFourStar collaborators Jesse Nowack and Creator/AmberLeeConnors. The original version of the series ran for two episodes and released a preview of a third before Krosecz's increasing involvement with Team Four Star led him to put the series on hold, an announcement he made in August of 2017. In September of 2018 the first episode of a rebooted series premiered as part of an ongoing series under Team Four Star's umbrella that will feature more of the group's voice actors and resources.
[[KidHero Akio]] is a young boy being raised and trained by his legendary martial arts master Panchi, and he has a dream: to someday be one of the legendary warriors known as a "Fist Master", whose powers and abilities supposedly far surpass mortal limits.
