Specialman - Extraterrestrials - Kinniku Clan

Kinniku Clan

• The Kinniku Clan Ancestor (キン肉族先祖, Kinniku-zoku Senzo?) is, as his name implies, the great ancestor of the Kinniku Clan. The character 祖 is written on his forehead and his face greatly resembles Tatsunori's. While washing his alternate mask in a river one day, he accidentally dropped it. As he raced after it, Kami-sama appeared and asked The Golden Mask or this Worn Out Mask, which did you drop? He tried to point at the Golden Mask, but neuralgia caused him to accidnetally point at his own mask. Kami-sama mistakes this for honesty and rewards him with the Golden and Silver Masks. He is voiced by Masaharu Satō.

• Tatsunori Kinniku (キン肉タツノリ, Kinniku Tatsunori?) was a great fighter of the Kinniku Clan and the father of Mayumi Kinniku. The KIN Mark is on his forehead. Once during battle when he was surrounded by enemies trying to steal his mask, he used the Kinniku Clan's Niku Curtain to protect his mask and withstood their blows for three days straight until they collapsed. In the anime he uses the Kinniku Guard to protect his mask during a Space Samurai invasion on Planet Kinniku. Furthermore, in Kinnikuman Nisei it is established that he created the Niku Curtain and founded the Royal Kinniku Family. His name comes from Tatsunori Hara. He is voiced by Akira Kamiya.
