Spawned from the enormous Kinnikuman universe franchise created and cultivated by two long-time Japanese friends who go by the collective name Yudetamago.

Powerful warriors sent to Earth to eliminate the primary protagonist character for which the franchise is named Kinnikuman and the other Justice Chojin of his faction.

However, he’s ultimately defeated at the hands of the steadfast determination of Kinnikuman who saves the children and thwarts the attempted conquer of the planet.
