[edit] Story
Mayumi was born to Tatsunori Kinniku, the 56th King of Planet Kinniku and inventor of the Niku Curtain. Other than a fierce and long-standing rivalry with Harabote Muscle (the future chairman of the Choujin Legeau), no major accomplishments of his are ever mentioned, and how he ever became king is unknown. He is married to Sayuri Kinniku, and although she is embarrassed by how he sometimes behave, the two are very much in love with one another. They eventually have son named Ataru and years later another one named Suguru. When Sayuri is still pregnant with Suguru, Ataru runs away from home after learning that he will not be the one to become king. While vacationing on Earth, Mayumi mistakes a pig for baby Suguru and leaves him behind. The pig, King Tōn, grows up as prince in Suguru's place and overthrows Mayumi.
Mayumi then sends Alexandria Meat to Earth to retrieve Suguru, so he can defeat Tōn and take the throne. However, Suguru turns out to be a goofy failure and loses. Fortunately, the chef that once owned Tōn arrives to reclaim him, giving Mayumi a chance to snatch the King's Belt back when nobody is looking and reclaim the throne. Mayumi and Suguru maintain an unusual relationship. Mayumi is constantly embarrassed by his childish and goofy behaviour, despite the fact that he himself is just as goofy at times. Nonetheless, whenever Suguru fights, and especially when he's winning, Mayumi cheers loudly for him and brags that he's his son.
Mayumi continues to loudly support his son throughout the series and is one of the most prominent supporting cast members. During the Survivor Match for the Kinniku Throne Mayumi reveals that he is much more intelligent than he seems to be when he frequently interpret the passages in the Muscle Prophecy Book.
[edit] Kinnikuman Nisei
Mayumi has had a reletively small role in Nisei, appearing only in the first few chapters and the current storyline. He has pretty much the same relationship with Mantarou that he did with Suguru. In the current storyline (a Tag Tournament in the past), he and Harabote have resumed their roles as main supporting characters.
