The 2nd Kaiju Extermination Arc is fourth story arc in the Manga/Kinnikuman manga. It's length is Chapters 80-89. Unlike the first Kaiju Extermination Arc, this arc is divided into three 'mini-arcs'. This arc is notably the last we see of super-hero parody, with following arcs focusing on wrestling.
Summary
After losing his title due to a scheduling conflict, Kinnikuman returns to Japan to learn that a new team of heroes, the Tanokin Trio, have taken over his duties in fighting Kaiju. Then, a trip to Planet Kinniku for New Years brings him into conflict with the Kinnikus rivals, the Hormon Tribe, with the Hormon princess Bibinba falling in love with "Suguru-Sama"! And finally, the child Choujin Beansman recruits Kin and five other Choujin to save the planet Rakka from Space Samurai!
Tropes
- Because You Were Nice to Me: Bibinba can't bring herself to kill Kinnikuman because he offered her Meat's cape as a bandage for a scrap.
- Girliness Upgrade: Given an over-the-top parody with Bibinba after she falls for Kinnikuman.
- The Magnificent Seven Samurai: The Magnificent Choujin Seven for the Planet Rakka arc.
- Shoo the Dog: Bibinba tries to insert herself into Kinnikuman's life, but since he already has Meat serving him, the two of them conspire to push Bibinba away. This actually works because Bibinba decided that "Absence makes the heart grow fonder".
- You Killed My Father: Brocken Jr. makes his debut, and makes it clear that he wants to kill Ramenman for Brockenman's death. However, he is willing to cooperate with Ramenman to save Planet Rakka.
