On Sunday, the Kinnikuman YouTube channel released a new promotional video for the Kinnikuman Perfect Origin-Hen anime.

The anime is scheduled to premiere in 2024. The arc is titled after the same-named manga arc from its 2011 revival.

  • Original work: Yudetamago
  • Director: Akira Sato
  • Series composition: Makoto Fukami
  • Character design: Hirotaka Marufuji
  • Music: Yasuharu Takanashi

The new series will be a continuation of the previous arc and begin broadcast in Japan sometime in 2024.

Kinnikuman, also known as Ultimate Muscle in English, was published in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine from 1979 to 1987.

In 1983, the manga also inspired an anime adaptation. Later in 2011, the series was republished in Shueisha’s web magazine, Shu Play News, and also has spin-off manga series, anime films, video games, and merchandise.

The manga has released 83 volumes in Japan, and the latest volume will be in Japanese bookstores on September 29.
