History
The Idol Choujin were first formed after the 21st Choujin Olympics when Buffaloman and the Seven Akuma Choujin first showed up. Though the Akuma Choujin were only interested in fighting Kinnikuman, when he became too injured to fight Terryman, Robin Mask, Warsman, Brocken Jr., and Wolfman arrived to fill in for him. They later helped out during the Golden Mask Arc, this time with newcomer Geronimo.
During the Dream Choujin Tag Arc, they had their Friendship Power stolen by Ashuraman and Sunshine and temporarly disbanded, however their Friendship Power proved to be too powerful and one by one they reunited. During the Survivor Match for the Kinniku Throne they again aided Kinnikuman, this time going against the rules of the Choujin Gods.
During the Demon Seed Arc (Kinnikuman Nisei), a new generation of Idol Choujin appear when former enemies of Kinniku Mantarou appear to help him defeat Ashuraman and General Terror. The Idol Choujin from both series are currently fighting in a Tag Tournament set in the past (just after the Dream Choujin Tag Arc).

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“In history the great moment is, when the savage is just ceasing to be a savage, with all his hairy Pelasgic strength directed on his opening sense of beauty;—and you have Pericles and Phidias,—and not yet passed over into the Corinthian civility. Everything good in nature and in the world is in that moment of transition, when the swarthy juices still flow plentifully from nature, but their astrigency or acridity is got out by ethics and humanity.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Both place and time were changed, and I dwelt nearer to those parts of the universe and to those eras in history which had most attracted me.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“No cause is left but the most ancient of all, the one, in fact, that from the beginning of our history has determined the very existence of politics, the cause of freedom versus tyranny.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
