9	->'''Voiced by''': Creator/AkiraKamiya (Perfect Origin arc)
10	* TheAce: As Kinnikuman Great I.
11	* AlmightyJanitor: Officially he was Jesse's sidekick, but is much stronger and in fact is one of the strongest characters in the series
12	* CharlieBrownFromOuttaTown: Kinnikuman Great I ([[DubNameChange Lord Muscle in US]])
13	* CoolOldGuy: An amazing advisor and good at kicking ass, this grandpa helped Kinnikuman win the Tag Tournament [[spoiler:before kicking the bucket.]]
14	* DefeatingTheUndefeatable: Wins a match against Kinnikuman within seconds, just after the latter's victory in the Choujin Olympics.
15	* FinishingMove:
16	** Back Flip (a Leaping Samoan Drop)
17	** [[spoiler:He later reveals the Triple Beefcake when the Omegaman takes his form in the Throne Arc, which is a sequential combination of his Bow Backbreaker, then the Gory Special, and finally, his signature Back Flip.]]
18	* GlassCannon: He reveals himself as this in the Dream Tag arc. He might be strong for an old man thanks to his rigorous training, and has everybodies number in terms of technical fighting, he's still an old man whose body is breaking down from age, and thus, he tires quickly. [[spoiler:This leads to him dying from his injuries when Sunshine puts him through his Cursed Roller without intending to.]]
19	* ImageSong[=/=]{{Leitmotif}}: "Tetsujin Kamehame" (Iron Man Kamehame), "Idai na Tamashii" ("A Great Soul") as Kinnikuman Great I
20	* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: Out of all of the Choujin, he is the only one that doesn't come back to life. Justified, as he was pretty old at the time, and probably would have died of old age sooner or later.]]
21	* MisplacedAccent: Has an Australian accent in the dub of ''Galactic Wrestling'' despite still being Hawaiian.
22	* OldMaster: He's one of the most skilled Chojin in the series and still keeps in good shape and trains even today.
23	* RingOldies: He's the oldest of the choujins, but he masterfully dominates the match with Black Hole and the Pentagon easily. He also defeated Kinnikuman in 7 seconds.
24	* ShoutOut: Named after the first Hawaiian king [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamehameha_I Kamehameha]].
25	* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: [[spoiler:His death, essentially. In spite of him training and keeping fit to this day, the onset of age, combined with his health problems, cause him to sustain mortal injuries that he's unable to recover from when he sacrifices himself to save Terryman from Sunshine's new Cursed Rolller finisher.]]
26	* VocalDissonance: Aside from having an Australian accent in the dub of ''Galactic Wrestling'', he also sounds surprisingly younger.

30	!!Jesse/Jessie Maivia
31	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kin_jesse.jpg]]
32	* AdaptationalAttractiveness: While he's the opposite of being bad-looking in the manga, his design in the anime has him portrayed with a much more boyish face.
33	* CripplingOverspecialization: He can reverse any move with ease. Pulling off his own moves...not so much. [[spoiler:In fact, it lead to his defeat when Maivia attempts to go on the offensive against Kinnikuman.]]
34	* CounterAttack: His bread and butter.
35	* TheGimmick: His entire fighting style is focused around counter attacks, and he isn't as strong as you'd expect a champion to be.
36	* MasterOfNone: He is incredibly skilled in many wrestling techniques, but he hasn't mastered any of them at all.
37	* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Of "High Chief" Peter Maivia (Grandfather of [[Wrestling/DwayneJohnson The Rock]])

41	!! Brockenman
42	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/brockenman_render.jpg]]
43	* CruelAndUnusualDeath: He gets ripped in half, or turned into ramen noodles and eaten in the anime.
44	* DeaderThanDead: [[spoiler:Upon learning that Brocken Jr. had forged a new path in life, Brockenman was proud of him and ascended to heaven, free of his mortal attachments.]]
45	* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Genuinely cares for his son Brocken Jr. He even sees great potential in him and was even willing to endure the trials of the Chojin Hakaba just to teach him the Brocken Clan's greatest techniques.
46	* EvenEvilHasStandards: Feels that Hitler was a delusional man who espoused lies. For his Reich, Brockenman plans on having an empire that transcends race and religion. He also feels that hypocrisy is the greatest form of evil in his eyes.
47	* EvilVersusEvil: Back when Ramenman was evil.
48	* FamilyUnfriendlyDeath: Ramenman rips him in half. In the anime, this was changed to Ramenman snapping his back, turning him into noodles, and then serving and eating him as bowls of ramen. The latter is arguably more disturbing to watch.
49	* {{Irony}}: It's revealed in ''Deep of Muscle'' that he wanted a Fourth Reich where race and religion are transcended and everybody is united as one, and able to live in peace and harmony.
50	* KilledOffForReal: By Ramenman.
51	* PoisonousPerson: During his match with Ramenman he spews out poisonous gas from his mouth.
52	* PoliticallyCorrectVillain: Ironically, despite his uniform and appearance, he ''despised'' Hitler, and wanted a Reich that transcends race and religion, making him the exact opposite of a Nazi.
53	* PuttingOnTheReich: He wears a World War II-era German military uniform. Surprisingly, despite being significantly more ruthless than his son, it's just for show, given that he wants a utopia where race and religion are no longer of importance and people are unified.
54	* SoProudOfYou: [[spoiler:In the Chojin Graveyard, Brockenman learned that his son turned a new leaf and forged a new path in life. Brockenman is proud of his son as he doesn't need the Brocken Clan's teachings to succeed.]]
55	* TheRival: Considers the Robin Clan to be the greatest rivals for the Brocken Clan.
56	* ThoseWackyNazis: His gimmick. Subverted when it's revealed in ''Deep of Muscle'' that he he despised Hitler and wanted to have his own Reich where race and religion are of no importance and all people on earth are united and able to live in peace.

76	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kin_benkiman.jpg]]
77
78	->"Giganteman! I'm afraid to say I can't afford to lose this fight! My Incan Chojin pride is on the line!"
79
80	* ADayInTheLimelight: He's the protagonist of ''Benkiman: ~Lost Incan Memories~'', which depicts his origins and backstory.
81	* AdaptationalJobChange: In the dub of ''Anime/UltimateMuscle,'' he had a side job as a movie director.
82	* AdaptationalWimp: He gets portrayed as a JokeCharacter in the Kinnikuman Muscle Grand Prix Series, as his dial-a-combos will often leave him tired out and immobilized as he takes a breather, his special moves all deal minimal damage and have ridiculous animations, involving him using plungers, sweeps, and toilet brushes, as well as tossing toilet paper and feces, and worst of all, his Benki Flush technique only deals as much as one of the more damaging special moves, and costs all of his super gauge. All of this contrasts him in canon, where he's shown to be a fairly effective fighter and his Benki Flush is shown to be a death sentence as long as long as you are unable to clog him.
83	* AwesomeButImpractical: His Benki Flush technique can be defeated by simply clogging it up, as shown with his fight against Kinnikuman, and it also causes him massive damage as well, given that he violently sprays up water and comes crashing down after Kinnikuman does so. [[spoiler:Also, if you have some mean of propelling yourself, like with Gear Master, you can also easily escape from it.]]
84	* BeTheBall: One of his abilities is to roll up Choujin that are too big for him into tiny balls, so that his Benki Flush will work.
85	* BigDamnHeroes: Shows up with the other Choujin Olympic finalists to help Wolfman fight off the [[spoiler:True Devil Choujin.]]
86	* BoringYetPractical: In his special side story, he's implied to have been a more simplistic wrestler in the past (more specifically, the 21st Choujin Olympics qualifier in Peru), which wasn't too exciting for the audience.
87	* {{Bowdlerization}}: The anime changed the coiled turd on his head to a faucet.
88	* [[spoiler: BroughtDownToNormal: via Strong The Budo.]]
89	* DeathByIrony: [[spoiler:He winds up getting killed by Gearman, a Chojin who has a similar finisher that involves using his own body to destroy his enemies, except instead of flushing them, Gearman grinds them up with his body.]]
90	* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: A benki is an old fashioned toilet, so Benkiman's strategy is to flush down anyone that gets in his grasp.
91	* FinishingMove: Benki Flush.
92	* GroundByGears: [[spoiler:Crushed to death by Gear Master's gears during their match.]]
93	* LogicalWeakness: He's a toilet Choujin whose weakness is anything that can clog him up.
94	* MakingASplash: His Benkiya Washing technique. He shoots out a stream of water at his foe.
95	* MusclesAreMeaningless: Exaggerated. He literally has pipes for limbs, giving him no musculature whatsoever, but can put much larger Choujin in holds and even throw them around.
96	* ParentalAbandonment: [[spoiler: His parents had died during Francisco Pizarro's invasion, resulting in TraumaInducedAmnesia.]]
97	* RelatedInTheAdaptation: He's the father of his apprentice Wash Ass in the dub of ''Ultimate Muscle''.
98	* ThisIsADrill: Benkiman's Helado Spin technique. He spins the coil of poop on his head so fast, it can be used like a drill.
99	* YankTheDogsChain: [[spoiler:Just as Benkiman flushes Gear Master down his toilet body, Gear Master uses his gear materialization powers on Benkiman and frees himself. Gear Master then crushes Benkiman with his Genocide Gears.]]

105
106	->"A Brutal Chojin's fight is like the light of the winter sun. No matter how bright it is, it will never feel warm."
107
108	* BigDamnHeroes: Shows up with the other Choujin Olympic finalists to help Wolfman fight off the [[spoiler:True Devil Choujin.]]
109	* BroughtDownToNormal: via Strong The Budo but he goes back to being a Choujin in the end.
110	* TheBusCameBack: He becomes the protagonist in his own one shot special of 2016.
111	* CombatPragmatist: The Garam Masala Thumbing technique, which is used to blind an opponent during a fight.
112	* DemotedToExtra: Despite being a Choujin Tournament finalist, he fades into the background as the series moves on.
113	* DyingAsYourself: [[spoiler: His Mala gets shattered after his loss to Mariquitaman. Since his Mala is a symbol of his hatred, Curry Cook gets a chance to have a friendly conversation with Kinnikuman before passing on.]]
114	* FinishingMove: Charkha Sting and Ganges Breaker. Charkha Sting is a powerful dive-kick that pierces through the opponent's gut. The Ganges Breaker is a powerful torture-rack backbreaker made possible with Curry Cook's flexible body.
115	* FreudianExcuse: He is a Brutal Choujin because in India before the series, [[spoiler:he defended the townspeople from a villainous Choujin Cambridgeman who has been terrorizing the people including the woman he loves. Curry Cook manages to defeat him but killed him brutally, causing him to not be praised for saving them but instead be ''feared'' by even the woman he loves. Curry realises what he has done and leaves town, going down the path as the Brutal Choujin.]]
116	* AHandfulForAnEye: Garam Masala Thumbing. Curry Cook grabs a handful of curry from his curry bowl and claws his opponent's face, blinding them in the process.
117	* HeelFaceTurn: He's now one of the Idol Choujin.
118	* HypocriticalHumor: He takes great pleasure in violently beating up a terrified Suguru, but the second he turns the tables on him and starts mercilessly beating him up, throwing him around, and even biting him, he freaks out and yells at him, calling him a "Muscle Devil" and runs away screaming in fear for his life.
119	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: His backstory reveals his birth name is [[spoiler:Singh]].
120	* MythicalMotifs: He's compared to a Kappa by Mayumi, and surprisingly, he does end up having some traits similar to one, namely his Mala (the plate of Curry he carries on his head) is the source of his power, much like a Kappa needs the water they carry in their Sara (the cavity on the top of their heads).
121	* NiceJobFixingItVillain: PlayedForLaughs. His Garam Masala Thumbing winds up driving Kinnikuman insane when they first fought, causing him to violently and mercilessly attack him until Curry Cook gave up and ran away in fear.
122	* TagTeam: Joint # 1 with Skyman. Their backstory is covered in Deep of Muscle, where Curry Cook teaches Skyman what it means to be a Brutal Chojin. They lost to the 4-D Killer Combo before they could enter the Dream Tag Tournament.
123	* ThinSkinnedBully: He's a Brutal Choujin who characterises himself through sheer brutality and sadism in a fight, but he can't take being on the receiving end of a merciless and violent fighting style.
124	* WeaksauceWeakness: Can't perform well without a plate of curry on his head.

129	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kin_pentagon.jpg]]
130	* EnemyMine: With Black Hole against Kinnikuman during the Tag Tournament. Deep of Muscle Episode 9 covers why the two teamed up despite being on opposing factions. Pentagon stood up for Black Hole when he was bullied by Bermuda III.
131	* TheFaceless: Other than a star, he has no facial features
132	* ImageSong[=/=]{{Leitmotif}}: "Stop The Time", the name of his signature move.
133	* TagTeam: [=4D=] Combo (with Black Hole)
134	* TimeStandsStill: As Kinnikuman figured out, he's able to stop time using the star on his head.
135	* [[spoiler: TookALevelInBadass: Not only [[EleventhHourRanger saves a worn down Black Hole from dying]] in the current arc, but also quickly beats down Jack Tea in the match.]]
136	* TookALevelInJerkass: He was Justice Choujin with a mild temper in the 2nd Choujin Tournament arc, but by the Tag Tournament arc, he's resorting to underhanded moves and mocking Kinnikuman's loss when Kinnikuman Great was temporally sucked into Black Hole's void. Then there's the mere fact that he's ''teaming with a Devil Choujin''!
137	* WingedHumanoid: Has wings on his back

144	* BigDamnHeroes: Shows up with the other Choujin Olympic finalists to help Wolfman fight off the [[spoiler:True Devil Choujin.]]
145	* HumanPopsicle: [[spoiler:Hailman freezes him into a popsicle and tears off his head with the Blizzard Sword technique to finish him off.]]
146	* ImprobableWeaponUser: He uses large teabags as weapons. The teabags can be used to strangle his opponents, can be used to whack his opponents, and can be used like a skateboard in case the floor suddenly becomes slippery.
147	* RootingForTheVillain: [[invoked]] After his death at the hands of Warsman, Teapackman cheered for Warsman to kill his opponents, so he would have some company in the Chojin Graveyard. Miraculously, Pentagon and Ramenman survived. Kinnikuman won his match against Warsman. His efforts to gain a friend have failed magnificently.
148	* TookALevelInBadass: Teapackman coming off from his defeat against Warsman, actually improved his body along with neck and is able to go against one of the [[spoiler:True Devil Choujin.]]
149	* WeakButSkilled: His Choujin Power remains 250,000 even after improving his body.
150	* TheWorfEffect: To Warsman in their match at the 2nd Choujin Tournament Arc to show how the latter is brutal by getting impaled and then had his head ripoff.

157	* BossSubtitles: [[spoiler:Perfect Second]]
158	* FinishingMove: [[spoiler:Arrogant Spark, an even more ''brutal'' version of Muscle Spark!]]
159	* FlawedPrototype: He considers his FinishingMove to be this. [[spoiler:Despite that the Arrogant Spark is much more lethal and brutal than Muscle Spark, he considers it a flaw because it is a move to kill and it is a double-edged sword to use as it reflects his Perfect Choujin nature. He considers Suguru's Muscle Spark to be the perfect one he was looking for as unlike Nemesis's, it requires mercy to let the opponent live while remain defeated.]]
160	* GoodIsNotSoft: [[spoiler:His Arrogant Spark as Psychoman learns the hard way.]]
161	* TheMole: [[spoiler:Psychoman labels him as this for the Perfect Origin on the Justice Choujin faction, when actually he is a [[TheMole mole]] trying to lay the foundations for the Justice Choujin.]]
162	* MyGreatestFailure: [[spoiler:Unable to shake off his nature as Perfect Choujin after using Arrogant Spark and isn't able to rework his Arrogant Spark that is a move to kill into the Muscle Spark we all know before dying in battle with Goldman.]]
163	* SiblingYinYang: He's God of Peace to Goldman's God of Battle. [[spoiler:Goes into CainAndAbel territory.]]
164	* ThanatosGambit: [[spoiler:He was the one who crafted the Finishing Hold Fresco that depicts the Kinniku Clan's Sacred Three Moves so he hopes that those can complete the Muscle Spark in the ways he couldn't.]]
165	* TokenGoodTeammate: [[spoiler:Of the Perfect Origin surprisingly. He's interfering with Psychoman and the Perfect Origin's plans for some reason and turns out while he didn't really leave the Perfect Origin, he is against The Man's corruption and he puts his faith in the Justice Choujin even though he's unable to move on from being a Perfect Choujin.]]

181	* {{Expy}}: Of [[Wrestling/DustyRhodes "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes]]
182	* FacialHorror: He gets his face destroyed by Skull Bozu, so he has to wear a metallic mask to cover the injury.
183	* RoboticReveal: ...the anime, on the other hand, adapts said metallic mask by turning it into this.

212	* BreakoutCharacter: Despite being a gag character, he became popular enough to become one of the two commentators of the matches in the anime adaptation of ''Manga/{{Kinnikuman}}'', which carried over to ''Anime/UltimateMuscle'''s manga and anime.
213	* CanonImmigrant: After several anime-only appearances as a commentator, ''Anime/UltimateMuscle'' made him a commentator in the manga proper.
214	* CombatCommentator: In the anime and the sequel series. Some of the manga-only Tazahama's dialogue was even adapted into him.

223	* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: She and Bibinba were best friends in the dub of ''Ultimate Muscle'' despite having little to no interaction in the source material.
224	* AscendedExtra: Essentially replaces Bibinba as Suguru's love interest in the anime.

226	* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: She never was officially PutOnABus in the original series, but in Nisei, she said that she left Japan to study overseas because she felt overshadowed by Bibinba.
227	** TheBusCameBack:
228	*** In ''Nisei'', we meet an OlderAndWiser Mari who is also the adoptive mother of Rinko, Mantarou's love interest.
229	*** Happens in the past during the Ultimate Tag Team arc. Mari suddenly returns and begins openly showing affection towards Sugaru, making herself a love rival for Bibinba.
230	* CompositeCharacter: She got a lot of Bibinba's characteristics from the manga in the anime (because the latter never even ''appeared'' in the anime until the very end), as well as her own characteristics from the manga.
231	* HotTeacher: Was a kindergarten teacher.
232	* LethalChef: In the dub, she supposedly could never cook gyudon as well as Bibinba.
233	* SatelliteLoveInterest: Kinnikuman was interested in her, but she lacked a lot of characteristics other than being nice, so Bibimba, a [[ThePollyanna more upbeat girl]] was brought into the story.
234	* {{Tsundere}}: Type B. She seems to be a patient and sweet girl, but she's got quite a fast temper when provoked.
