* AnthropomorphicFood: In addition to Kikkoman and his allies and rivals, there are also the "food monsters" who want to defeat Kikkoman because his soy sauce makes them irresistibly delicious.
* CoolBike: Kikkoman rides around on a fish-shaped motorcycle.
* DontTryThisAtHome: A "Do not try this, kids!" caption when Kikkoman hangs from a blimp shaped like a giant packet of soy sauce. It appears again after Kikkoman has sex with what appears to be his DistaffCounterpart.

[[caption-width-right:320:He came from the planet of Soy\\
Warrior of Justice, Kikkoman!]]
->''Hello, guys from any culture.\\
Here is good news that\\
Kikkoman is tired of Japan.\\
He decided to fight all over the world.''
-->--'''Intro'' to the English version of the ''Fight! Kikkoman'' video
Back in the early 2000s, some ASCII artists on the web forum [=2channel=] used Shift-JIS to create a parody superhero based on Kikkoman soy sauce. ''Soy Sauce Warrior Kikkoman'' was a muscular man with a head resembling the silver fish-shaped packets used for soy sauce in Japan, wearing nothing but a cape, gloves and boots, and a {{fundoshi}}, with the Kikkoman logo superimposed on his chest.
Then a user named Yogatori created a Flash animation based on the character, which depicted him fighting off other condiment-based superheroes. After an English translation was released, it quickly became something of a viral sensation.

!!Tropes:
*TheCameo: The Flash animation features an appearance by Mona Neko, another popular 2ch mascot, whom Kikkoman advises on his choice of sauce.
* FinishingMove: Kikkoman has two, the Kikko Punch and the Kikko Beam.
*FreezeFrameBonus: This explanation for how Kikkoman's "Kikko Punch" works appears for only a brief second.
-->Let us explain.\\
Kikko Punch\\
The power of the punch which\\
comes form [sic] Kikkoman's unnecessarily-built\\
body is far more than what you imagine.\\
In addition, since Kikkoman is always using\\
his gloves for brewing soy sauce, you'd be\\
itchy when you get punched by him!
