DON'T MISS IT!!!!!

[doc_moore_j]

I am so there dude, It is 1 AM now, I might not even go to bed, I am recording the crap out of it too.

[Krangala]

I get two Fox stations.....I'll watch it on Fox East, and if I like it, I'll tape it from Fox West.........

[Warsman]

check out foxbox.tv while you wait the kinnikuman webpage it UP!

::starts to have convulsions::
go go go


1 hour 15 minutes is too long to wait

[Adamantiumwulf]

I am sitting here at work and the show starts in a couple minutes.

Oh well ot can be nice.

I set the vcr so as soon as I get home I'm rewinding the tape and watching it. At least i can skip thru the commericals.

[Krangala]

Okay, so I'm watching "Ultimate Muscle"......not bad, but I didn't expect it to be spectacular.....

I'm pleased so far......sure, it's got that 'anime' thing going for it, but the song and flatulence are a bit much.....

the mask being everywhere is a bit humorous, I guess it's s'posed to appeal to kids.....

it looks also to cash in with the DBZ crowd......

but, I'm disappointed in the fact that while we have "Meat" and a few of the other famous faces, there is no appearance by Mr. Blocky (Sunshine) or Krangala.......(Big the Budo)

I figured they would throw some cameos in so that we (The diehard Krangala fans) would at least have a bit of nostalgia........

nice seeing Robin Mask though.......

[Warsman]

If anyone misses any episodes PM me i
have them in VCD format and soon divx

I'm going to be setting up a FTP server once i can get my laptop fixed with all episdoes in divx format

[Adamantiumwulf]

Sweet even though I am recording them on vhs I would deffinatly be up for some vcd format.

as far as cameos they will show up later on in the show. At least some people will.

[Krangala]

Okay, we got a small Mr. Blocky cameo in the second episode.......

BUT STILL NO KRANGALA!!!!

[The Shizit]

WARSMAN can u send it thru AOL?? i missed it cuz i forgot to set my alarm to wake up in time. my AOL name is ShortFusedBomb. let me know

[jkaris]

Okay, I'm pissed!
9:30 and 10:30 AM, huh?
Damn Fox station is Sacramento played them at 8:30 and 9:30. AAAAAARRRGGGHHH!!!
I missed the first episode.
Damn it!

Other than that, the second episode was pretty kewl.

[doc_moore_j]

Sorry you missed the first one Johnny, I didn't even go to bed last night just to be sure I didn't miss it, and to work on some of my site (no updates, but pics for updates). All in all, I was actually impressed with it. I have the DVD that came out, and had no cameos really, this had quite a few Buffalo man, Robin mask, Ramen man, etc... I look forward to the next episodes. My wife talked me out of recording it because we thought it would be kind of lame like the DVD, now I am pissed I didn't so, I may be interested in your recordings warsman.

[Warsman]

I figured out something simple

so many missed it ,
send me $5 or so for the thing if you go with VCD

way i figured it i'm make it nice...
each VCD is in 3 parts to edit commercials out.
with full color label with episode name
Jewel case
S&H is included
as well as the nice box to ship it in since we don't want it brakeing.

I doubt i can to this legally so and stuff not out for profit only to break even.
I'll see what i can do setting up the FTP Server
in VCD format it's 300MB and in Divx format it's 130MBs

So i'm looking for your suggestions

[Ridureyu]

I missed it, too...

[Warsman]

I liked it quite abit
the 2nd episode was great , maybe we should start a secondary thread so we don't spoil it for anyone .


anyway tomorrow i'll have photos , episode guide and whatnot for the first 2 episodes on my webpage i hope .

[EVOM]

Then my fox channel decides to put the news on for an hour!!!!!! It wasn`t on down here in south Florida!!!!!! I got screwed harder than a hooker who`s fiending for crack!!!!!!!!!

[jkaris]

Hey guys, I have an abbreviated transcript of the second episode up at the AKIA. Go to Info, G2 Story and you can see it. As I didn't see the first episode, does anyone care to write up a synopsis and post it here so I can put it on the AKIA? Pretty please?

[Krangala]

No problem!

they begin with a flying fist hurtling through space, which crash lands on Mt. Fuji......

then we pan to Muscle planet (A giant floating Muscleman head) and there is a council taking place, the 'elders' are discussing a recent loss on pay-per-view, here we see many old and familiar faces, including Robin Mask, and many others (Can't really remember)

they lament that if King Muscle had been around that they wouldn't have lost, then the council begins discussing finding him.......Ramenman then mentions that there is another who posesses the power of Ultimate Muscle, but that they would have a hard time convincing him to compete.....

the group of wrestlers begins oohing and ahhing about Kid Muscle, and Ramenman says they'll wish they hadn't when they meet him (This might've been Kid Muscle's grandfather, I can't remember)

next we see Kid Muscle sitting in his room, a butler is serving him dinner, a lame song ensues, and then he sets to dig in.......the food is quickly withdrawn before he can eat it however, and the butler states that Kid Muscle can't eat until he finishes his homework.....he opens a book and inside is a girlie mag......he begins fawning over them, when he gets tapped on the shoulder by his grandfather which he shrugs off......this irritates his grandfather, who informs him of his destiny.....not wanting anything to do with it, Kid Muscle runs away.......pursued by guards or cops or something.....

he jumps into a spaceship, and freaks when it takes off........when it crash lands, he finds himself in a park.......there he finds a shed, with some form of coffin shaped device inside....he accidentally presses a button, and releases Alexandria Meat.....who explains that Kid Muscle has crashlanded on Earth (Where his grandfather was gonna send him anyway, to fight evil) this freaks Kid Muscle out again, and he goes running into some rocketship shaped piece of playground equipment......inside is some bad dude with a "+" shape on his chest (Adversarius).....this guy whoops Kid Muscle around, until Kid Muscle decides to sit down and eat......Adversarius stomps Kid Muscle's food, and we see this emotional scene where Kid Muscle cries like a baby due to the loss of the last meal his mother cooked for him......

he gets the power of Ultimate Muscle, and whoops Adversarius around the playground.........this is where the episode ends......

FoxBox has a spoiler-free description of the first show on www.foxbox.tv, in the Kinnikuman section, under "About the Show". They also have plenty of other updates, so you might want to check it out!

I thought mitokun's voice sucked. It is just so different from his "little kid" voice in Japanese. Besides that, it was not too bad. Terry the kid's voice is also a little over the top. Not bad.

I noticed on Amazon.co.jp that they have quite a few 2nd generation DVDs, and will have a G1 DVD in december. Amazon Japan now offers parts of the site in Englsih, so you can set up an account and check out that way. They ship to the USA no problem. I just ordered a few for my region 2 player.

[Warsman]

well if their making gen 1 dvd's i'm pre-ordering

I feel like dancing.



Terry was total texas , but more sterotypical texas
Meat could of had a better voice,but it worked well since he was about to "curse" so many times.

Meat : He grappled every son of a
Kid Muscle : I get the point

overall i liked the episodes

[EASports]

But what about Sean Connery? I mean Robin Mask... And boy oh boy, that theme song! I think it definitely has the making of a great cartoon for the kiddies, and I'll keep watching it cause I love Muscle men. Hey, maybe it'll pick up. You really can't judge a cartoon by the first two episodes, so stay tuned, I guess.

[DavidMask]

Ultimate Muscle is way better than I expected, it has every ingredience that make a good animation. Part of the plot is quite touching, like how TerryKenyon misunderstood his father. The only complain I have is how the show keep referring the characters as westlers. They are not westlers, they are superheros, and in japanese the name of their organization is something like the Justice leauge, not some stupid name like the muscle league and the good guys are called rightous super-humen. They are the protectors of the earth and peace, not just simple westlers. The characters can turn into ultraman-size. Calling them westlers sounds like they are entertainers such as the WWF westlers. The ring is just a stage for the superheros and supervillans to fight fairly.

I liked Meat's voice, but that's just me.
