Can't say I expected this to get a thread on SA, but sure as hell can't say I mind, either. Also seconding the glory of Dik Dik van Dik. Even when I forgot Ultimate Muscle, a part of me remembered he was a thing.

Blaze Dragon posted:I wish more series did the same honestly. Let the jobbers have a chance at the spotlight too. I mean, hasn't that been Revival in general? Hell, they gave my boy Black Hole two whole matches. Two!

Blaze Dragon posted:Hence why I said "more series". It's insane how good Kinnikuman has been about giving minor characters the spotlight since it returned. Hell, the titular character himself has gotten pretty sidelined, with the big bad matches usually being done by others (like Justiceman this arc or The Man before) which is unthinkable in shonen. Oh, I know. I just found it funny Brocken Jr was the example when far more minor characters from every arc but Neptuneman's have been getting a ton of spotlight. I mean, for crying out loud, Wolfman and Big Body got their Ws this arc!

Between the oneshot and those manga panels, I honestly forgot just how much of Kinnikuman really is just about pure, wholesome love.

I love that they reconcile his gag character origins with his modern status by just establishing that the poor guy has insane imposter syndrome. He went from the ha ha funny fart man to a man who stands against gods on the regular, and it turns out that kinda wreaks havoc on your psyche!

Pretty much! Dude spends the early half of the series on the alignment roller coaster and then just takes a hell of a chill pill offscreen.
