They decided to retcon the retcon? THE CONFUSIONS

[Dai Makai]

Wait! How did we go from Face Flashing to *that* in one chapter?!? HOW?!?

[Black Oracle]

Wow, that seems like a rather sudden and major plot development there. All this time Kevin's been stuck in that X-chamber in danger of being wiped from existence and now, apparently in the space of less than a chapter, he's whole and fighting fit in the ring with Mantaro?! Guess the doctors at the hospital must've been able to save Alisa finally, but now why's Kevin facing off against Mantaro once again? Is this going to be another Kevin/Mantaro match now? Or perhaps this is all just Mantaro's imagination?

[Aelia]

Looks more like a flashback to me. :/

Then again, flashbacks never usually take up an entire page.

[Chibibee]

WELL, AIN'T THIS INTERESTING? 8O

...Wait. What's that '500' thing on that page? Are we at 500 chapters or something? (Vol 22 ends at Chapter 225, so maybe. If so HOLY CRAP.) If that's the case, that page might not have anything to do with the story, only showing one of the major moments of Nisei.

OR, considering this missing page I found from the last chapter, it may somehow be possible:


Robin and Alisa? HMMMM.

My guess is it's just the cover of the chapter. Not actually part of the story.

They escaped so they could see their son safe huh?

Yes, this is the case. I assumed as much but since I only had the s-manga pic at the time and pretty much no info, I didn't mention it.

..D: I haven't seen that picture. I guess the person uploaded it and didn't include it in the update.


Anyway; we has pictures.

Actually, it's Mars and Jeager. My friend La Luna sent me an email with the info of them in this chapter.

In WPB, pairings were determined through tugs-of-war.
Surprisingly, the semi-finals are Machineguns vs Nouveau and Expansion vs Jikan-choujin,
that is, justice vs justice and evil vs evil.
Many people mourn the ironic twist of fate,
but Meet says that it's no bad because at least one justice team can inevitably advance to the final.
The first semi-final match, Machineguns vs Nouveau, will start in 20 minuets.

Robin and Kid are watching television broadcast covering together in the hospital room.
In other hospital, Scar and Jade are lying on the bed next to each other.
Scar points to the TV, and Jade says, "Scar!".
It's not sure if Jade recovers his sight.
Then Scar says, "Mantaro, having come from our era, is still fighting",
with his face covered with a bandage.

Soon after that, medical staffs in the both hospitals are upset
because severely injured patients, Robin & Kid and Scar & Jade, have escaped from the hospitals.

At the same time in competition site,
both Machineguns and Noubeau deepen their bonds between the partners.

..WAT. Mars is still alive?

But.. didn't we see his ghost/spirit/idfk with Wally before in that one chapter?





Is Mars a zombie now?

[Evil Lord Proteus]

Having the skin of yoru face ripped off does not kill you. Checkmate was also seen alive boarding a bus heading to the tournament.

Spoiler

Lightning used his time jump thing to sneakily ensure the good guys fight each other?

[Aelia]

Also, it seems choujins have the power of astral projection.

[KnuxieChan]

Well, remember how Jeager can shift his spirit into Mantaro when he has the skull of mystery? I imagine Mars did the same thing.. only.. he didn't need an item.

[Dai Makai]

And it seems Meat's *happy* about this change up because it means we aren't running the risk of Mantaro, Chaos, Suguru, and Terry all lose? Way to think positively, Meat.

AND I WAS RIGHT!

[Frobman]

I think the first page is either some sort of poll or an ad for something (not surprising, how Kinnikuman Day's next month)

[Chibibee]

...I like Chaos' pants here (has he worn those before?). More than the tights he was in.

And Terryman in chaps!! 8D

Three more images from this week; probably not intergral to the plot, but still nice to see.







And if Mars can come back from a Muscle Millenium, and Jade can survive his arm being ripped off, yeah, having the face ripped off/neck shattered wouldn't be an auto-kill move. But it sure as hell couldn't have been pleasant. D8

It's amazing, 500 chapters of Nisei. If we combine the original series (387) with Nisei (500+), without counting the specials, spin-offs, etc... then we got nearly 900 chapters of a tale of two generations of super heroes who, while idiotic, are proven to be the greatest warriors of all time.

This arc has been super long, if not too long. I mean, the Kinniku Throne storyline lasted over 100 chapters but it had quite a few interesting fights. This arc's now 200 chapters long and it's just... kinda... blah.

Also, as in the pictures, Mayumi cheering for Suguru (no surprise) and Suguru wearing his crazy outfit all the way from the original series chapter 4 (not surprised). Whatever, bring on the fight!!!

*squick*

[Jenny]

Yay for crappy translations.

Okay, for whatever reason the Japanese sites seem focussed on the reactions of the villians to the Kinniku's silly entries into the ring: Lighting seems visibly disgusted by it all, Mammothman has no reaction while Neptuneman is seen laughing along with the audience.

I think there was some vote recently for favourite single and tag match, which explains why we had Kevin vs Mantaro on the 500th chapter. The favourite tag match was Muscle Brothers Noveau vs 20 Million Powers

[Matto]

Being in Vegas for three nights makes you miss some things. Woe as me, I missed Yude DOING SILLY THINGS.

*squick*

lol homoerotic undertones lol

And the anime went over all arcs excluding the Demon Seed and Jikan Chojin in 77 episodes.

AND NOW IT'S GONE. >=(

Is Mars a zombie now?

The hospital had the T-Virus...?

[Dai Makai]

If he gets another face, then it's the G Virus.

[Matto]

A perfect match?

Spoiler

Manga and virus ended up being washed up?

=(

[Matto]

Double post lol

Figured that posting manga release links in seperate forums is kinda pointless. Since this is the only manga topic that gets a lot of views, I'd thought putting up S-Manga links would work for book releases. Viz releases will also follow... after Volume 23 gets released in five years.

Time Chojin Arc Volume 17 (with no preview flash page)
Kinnikuman Lady offical doujinshi cross-gender smut (with no preview porn)

Recognize the five fearsome gentlemen gracing this back cover? No? Well, back up and reacquaint yourself with Ultimate Muscle Volumes 1-21, my friend. I''ll wait here....All caught up? Good. In that case, the beatings Kid Muscle endured at the sundry appendages of Barrierfreeman, Comrade Turbinski, Mars, Kevin Mask and Hanzo are no doubt fresh in your memory, and even now they send a chill up your spine. (Okay, okay, the Kid never personally fought Comrade Turbinski. But still.) Well, hold that fear in your mind, savor it, and now consider this: those historic brawls are as nothing compared to the deep-down body hurt about to be doled out by the ancient evil rising from the depths of the Pacific at this very moment. It''s already got Meat, and he''s gone all to pieces over it. And now it''s coming for Kid Muscle...oh, and Earth. It''s totally got it in for Earth.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I'm laughing so hard, Viz Wiz. >=/

Wait wat?

Also i thought Kinnikuman Lady was ecchi, not hentai.

[Matto]

Having a little funs goes a long way. ;D

[Jenny]
