Kinnikuman

Kinnikuman is a comical bumbling superhero who discovers that he is actually a missing prince from the planet Kinniku, famed for producing the greatest superheroes in the entire universe. Since he doesn't exactly look the part, he is told that he needs to prove himself worthy. Kinnikuman sets out to defeat strong opponents, all while participating in tournaments. Kinnikuman's villains and allies are often as strange and eccentric as he is, and make multiple appearances as he fights towards the championship battle for Kinniku's throne.
