The Enduring Legacy of Kinnikuman

For those unfamiliar, `Kinnikuman` is a legendary fighting manga that began its serialization in “Shuukan Shounen Jump” in 1979. It was created by Yudetamago, a duo consisting of original scenario writer Shimada Takashi and artist Nakai Yoshinori. The story chronicles the journey of Kinnikuman, a clumsy and idiotic dropout Choujin from Kinniku-sei, as he grows into the strongest fighter in the Choujin wrestling world through sheer effort, unwavering friendship, and hard-fought victories.

Even today, the manga continues its serialization in “Shuukan Playboy” and “Shuupure NEWS”, with the series having surpassed a cumulative 77 million copies in circulation. The anime adaptation, which first aired in 1983, sparked a massive boom, and the popular `Kinkeshi` (known as `M.U.S.C.L.E.` in the West) toy series has sold over 180 million units, cementing its place as a cultural phenomenon.

The Perfect Origin Arc: New Anime Series

The new anime series, `Kinnikuman: Kanpeki Choujin Shiso-hen` (which can be translated as “Kinnikuman: Perfect Origin Arc”), aired its Season 1 from July to September 2024, followed by Season 2 from January to March 2025. This adaptation picks up directly after the previously animated `Kinnikusei Oui Soudatsu-hen` (Throne Arc), delving into the highly popular `Kanpeki Choujin Shiso-hen` from the original manga. Furthermore, the production of Season 3 has already been decided, promising to continue the intense battles between Kinnikuman, Buffaloman, and their Justice & Devil Alliance, against Nemesis and the Perfect Infinite Army, following their epic showdown in the specially constructed ring at the Tottori Sand Dunes.

Spotlight on Exclusive Figures from CCPJAPAN

Among the highly anticipated second wave of limited products by figure manufacturer CCPJAPAN, several standout pieces are generating considerable buzz.

The **CMC Creative NO.EX Mammothman Tokihanatareshi Genshi no Chikara Ver.** is a stunning figure that captures Mammothman, an ancient Choujin awakened from a 10,000-year slumber. It vividly portrays the moment his bestial nature, one half of his contradictory intellect and savagery, overflows as an aura.

The **CMC Creative NO.EX Kinniku Sadaharu Kanpeki Costume Ver.** imagines a different path for Kinniku Sadaharu, the genius of the Kinniku-zoku with unparalleled fighting talent. Unlike the historical narrative where he transforms into Nemesis due to despair and hatred towards his clan, this figure envisions “what if he had grown up without persecution, retaining a heart of compassion?” – a truly intriguing alternate reality.

The **CMC Creative NO.EX Akuma Shogun 3.1 Koudou 5.5 Koutetsu Ver.** replicates Akuma Shogun, who possesses the ability to adjust his Choujin hardness. This figure depicts him manifesting the hardness of “Koutetsu” (steel), an alloy of various metals. The intricate detail is achieved through special plating paint.

The **CMC Creative NO.EX Sneagator Wani Jigoku Kamitsukigame Henshin Image Ver.** realistically reproduces Sneagator’s transformation from his regular form into his Kamitsukigame (Snapping Turtle) form, which is one of his many terrifying transformations.

The **CMC Creative NO.EX Ashuraman 2.0 80-kan Hyooshi Image Color Metallic Ver.** presents the CMC Ashuraman figure with a stunning metallic finish, inspired by the captivating cover art of the 80th volume of the original manga comics.

Furthermore, a limited number of items that haven’t been available for sale in recent years are also making a special appearance. The **CMC NO.78 Kinnikuman Suguru Kagi-ude Ver. Gensaku Color** and **CMC NO.78 Kinnikuman Suguru Kagi-ude Ver. Tokubetsu Color** are rare stock releases of Kinnikuman Suguru from the “Yume no Choujin Tag-hen” (Dream Choujin Tag Arc), featuring his left arm transformed into a key as he unleashes the “Apollon Window Lock” technique, available in both original manga colors and special alternate colors.

The `Kinnikuman` themed event, “Kinnikuman STATION,” will continue until August 11, 2025, at the JR Ikebukuro Station South Ticket Gate Area in Tokyo. Don’t miss this valuable opportunity to get your hands on these limited and popular items from figure manufacturer CCPJAPAN!
