Happy Anniversary to the original Kinnikuman anime from 1983!

I can only recommend this if you liked the original Kinnikuman, are an anime buff that wants to keep it for historical purposes, or just wanna see what kind of world wrestling anime is in. Everybody else...this was a Montréal Screw Job. #UltimateMuscle
And when it finally has an ending that makes you think "Yeah, but the final arc might have made things worth it," it ends...on a fart joke. It just couldn't help itself. #UltimateMuscle
This happens over and over and over again. No growth for the Kid, no improvements, most eps are the same with just names and moves copied and pasted over. It. Gets. Boring. #UltimateMuscle
That doesn't happen with #UltimateMuscle, it tries too hard to stay true to the franchise's own formula, even when it hurts. It all boils down to "Kid gets drafted into a match, Kid turns cowardly, Kid's an asshole, Kid gets in match, Kid gets better, Kid wins," repeat.
...until the back half of the series, where it not only embraced the giant robot tropes and genre of the modern day, but actually became something close to an OVA like series. Hell, the isekai ep is one of my personal favorites. #UltimateMuscle
The first half of Tetsujin 28 FX, like all of UM, was focused on being just like it's originator while being set in the then modern day of the 90's, even with some humor that was popular at the time sprinkled in. It was uninspired and toothless... #UltimateMuscle
As for that second bar, and this applies to the whole series: Tetsujin 28 FX, namely the back half. #UltimateMuscle
That's the only reason to go back to being a chicken, a coward, and an asshole, the match ended and the show needs to stick to the Kinikoman formula. It gets grading and annoying. Even sagas where it should stick, like the lantern, it doesn't. #UltimateMuscle
...for weeks, even months, but then stuff happens, and I mean BAD stuff. Best friend injured, rival tells her she's not worthy of her mom's legacy, realizing she's a big fish in a small pond, etc.
Kid...the match ends. That's it. He goes back because match ended. #UltimateMuscle
Like Kid, Akari started out pathetic and had to evolve over time. And like Kid, there were setbacks that made her go back and forth between great and pathetic.
BUT...
That's just it, there were setbacks. Akari finds her stride, becomes the best she can... #UltimateMuscle
And there's two bars for this and we'll get the first one out of the way KId's character. That bar? Battle Athletes Victory's Akari. #UltimateMuscle
The biggest problem with this anime is the problem the first half of Tetsujin 28 FX had...it's trying too hard to be like the OG show in an era where it wouldn't fly and it shows, especially with the show's biggest problem...Kid Muscle. #UltimateMuscle
But...here's the main problem with #UltimateMuscle...
It's just not that great of an anime, guys.
It made for a fun watch as far as that goes, and just from a historical standpoint, I get why it needed to be save. A combination of a different time AND done by a company that doesn't exist, at least in it's current form. #UltimateMuscle
From jokes that we're still amazed that made air to moments that we can tell was when they were allowed to cut loose, this felt like an abridge dub given the official ok to air. #UltimateMuscle
Ok, let's get the fun/good out of the way, this was clearly the "Let it out, but we're still on Saturday TV" dub for any of the actors frustrated that they have to follow 4Kids/Saturday morning standards for anime. #UltimateMuscle
i gotta say it...out of all the 4Kids dubs people have been wanting to save this...KINDA boggles my mind... #UltimateMuscle
Kid gets the Chojin Crown like his dad, celebrates in the ring...and it ends with a fart joke...
You had. You had an ending that made things worth sitting through...and you pull this... #UltimateMuscle
Kevin and Kid shake hands in respect, Kevin seems to have mellowed out, and Flash reveals himself to be the guy Meat figured it'd be after rescuing Kevin from a dangerous fall! If it seems like it's a rush...
Final ep, minutes left. #UltimateMuscle
Kevin launches Kid for the Big Ben Bash...only for Kid to power up and break out of it...BY DISLOCATING HIS ARMS, THEN REINSERTS THEM BY MUSCLE AGAIN AND KID INVENTS A NEW MOVE, MUSCLE GRAVITY AND WINS THE MATCH!
KO! KO! KO! #UltimateMuscle
Kid and Kevin match each other's powers and their dads root for their respective sons, even say "Screw respect to each other." #UltimateMuscle
