Yasuharu Takanashi composes the music, with Production I.G handling animation. Kinnikuman, created by Yudetamago, first ran from 1979-1987 and revived in 2011, with 83 tankoubon volumes released. The franchise includes spin-offs, anime series, and merchandise. The story follows clumsy hero Suguru Kinniku, who must prove himself as a superhero on the planet Kinniku.
