He appears in the second season of the line's accompanying cartoon series by Filmation, featuring in four episodes: Fisto's Forest, The Rarest Gift of All, To Save Skeletor and The Games.

In actuality, the figure and horse are only linked due to them being released at the same time. There was a boxed set of the pair widely available, and toy commercials, storybooks and comics frequently features Fisto riding atop Stridor, implying he belongs exclusively to Fisto, although Stridor is listed as He-Man's steed on his package. Marketing also linked Fisto to the Heroic Warriors' war horse Stridor.
Neither does the cartoon ever cover this plotline given that Jitsu only appears in one episode of the cartoon series, the early episode The Dragon Invasion, long before Fisto's introduction into the series. They fight hand-to-hand in the Mattel mini-comic The Clash of Arms, packaged with both their figures, but no backstory between them is mentioned, they are only used in the story due to their figures being released at the same time. But the apparent rivalry between these two characters is never sufficiently developed by any media and there is no official background story detailing any kind of history between them. In the toy line, the evil character of Jitsu was marketed as an adversary to Fisto, his design being an Asian equivalent of Fisto, with a large golden right hand enhanced for performing karate chops. Fisto was introduced into the Masters of the Universe toy line in 1984, packaged as the 'Heroic Master of hand-to-hand combat'.
