Kinnikuman


The manga I will now be talking about is another personal favorite of mine and the oldest manga of all the reviews I have done called "Kinnikuman" by the duo of Yudetamago, being made in 1979.  Kinnikuman follows the life of the titular character called Kinnikuman which means "muscle man", a cowardly and stupid chojin which literally means "superman". Originally, it started out as a parody of Ultraman, an old japanese super hero show, it changed to a wrestling manga, and meeting new heroes and villains alike.  I enjoy this manga, for it's story, the comedy, the characters which by the way, the majority of the character designs of the characters were sent by the fans of the series and are very awesome, the fight scenes and the teachings of friendship and never giving up.  Though at first, I didn't like the art during the first chapters of the series, it gets better.  I like the manga and would recommend it to others.
