Kinnikuman Gold Mask arc, pt.6: I’ll finish this arc one day, I swear. Anyway, the big boss has finally appeared: Akuma Shogun! Also, everyone is still tiny and inside Warsman’s body. #Kinnikuman #GoldMask Image
The first to feel the Shogun’a wrath is Geronimo, leading to one of the series’ most infamous flubs: as Geronimo gets spun round and round, a second Geronimo is visible in the group reaction shot. Oops. Sadly, this mistake is corrected in later editions. ImageImage
The parody manga The Chojin-sama by Makochin Ishihara (a cross between Kinnikuman and his earlier series The Sanmei-sama) offers the theory that Geronimo is hit so hard that he has an out-of-body experience, and this explanation is later used in the Chojin Encyclopedia. ImageImageImage

Kinnikuman, Gold Mask arc part 1: after defeating the Seven Devil Chojin, it turns out they were just a bunch of underlings working for the Six Devil Knights, who work for Satan himself. The result? Something kinda the same as last arc, but even weirder. #Kinnikuman #GoldMask
The Devil Knights steal the Gold Mask from Kinniku Palace. The Gold/Silver Mask pair were given to the ancestors of the Kinniku Tribe by the gods, and are the source of Justice Chojin Power (somehow). Which means separating the masks robs all the good guys of their strength.
The story of the Gold/Silver Masks is inspired by the fable of the honest woodcutter, with the joke that the Kinniku ancestor only acts honestly by accident. Given all we learn of the two masks later, it’s questionable how much of this tale actually happened anyway
