Kinnikuman: Chief Cheyenne & Geronimo

Did you know Kinnikuman did like a better version of DBZ Battle of the Gods? And not just introduce a Divine/God Like Being Pantheon and Made Them Fucking Awesome? While telling a compelling story of power, corruption and ideological conflict?

I think I saw this in a movie once.

Sort of. It’s the revival series of OG Kinnikuman/Muscle

Oh it's Kinnikuman reference.

He’s a character from the Kinnikuman series, but he’s super minor, so I don’t think we ever really get to see him in action. https://t.co/q9Getm8EX9

Strong “super sentai villain” vibe from this one.

It’s hard for him to make friends.

I'm promise these aren't all Kinnikuman!

As opposed to the other kind of phantom.

Fed up with his deteriorating work conditions.

And that’s where we are today. This current arc certainly has a climatic feel to it, but so far there’s no word on if it’s the end, and Yudetamago have even said they’d like to continue making Kinnikuman until they die.

To be blunt, Nisei’s time travel arc was not a big hit, but this revived OG series got a much better response. It took the focus off Kinnikuman himself and gave the supporting characters and former enemies the starring role, with arch-villain Akuma Shogun a second protagonist.

So anyway, I was talking about the Kinnikuman franchise. After finishing the sequel Nisei/Ultimate Muscle, in 2011 creators Yudetamago began a revival of the original series, set in the 1980s and picking up right where the last volume of OG Kinnikuman left off.
