Kinnikuman Second Generation: The Great All Out Chōjin Assault (キン肉マンⅡ世~オール超人大進撃~, Kinnikuman Nisei ~Ōru Chōjin Dai Shingeki~?) is a manga series by Yudetamago. It was an alternate retelling of their series Kinnikuman Nisei (Ultimate Muscle).
About
Serialized in Shueisha's game magazine V Jump from 2002 to May 2007.
Like Yudetamago's other work, Kinnikuman Nisei (currently running in Weekly Playboy), it is a sequel to their earlier work Kinnikuman (serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump from 1979 to 1987), however the story develops differently than in Kinnikuman Nisei.
Playboy Version Differences
- The big Chojin fighting tournament is not the Chojin Olympics but rather the Chōjin Ittō-sai (超人一等祭,, Top Choujin Festival?). Whereas the Chojin Olympics was basically a Seigi Chojin Tournament (with the exception of Akugyo Chojins who sneak in), the Chōjin Ittō-sai mixes both good and evil Chojin to decide who is the "Top" Chojin amongst them.
- In the Playboy Version, the character Kevin Mask has so far never lost, but in this story he has one loss.
- Female Choujin like OKAN and Fiona participate in the fights.
- The character Gazelleman appears more frequently and prominently. Whereas in the Playboy Version he is never shown winning a match, in this story he is shown winning two matches.
