by It has been revealed that Sumire Uesaka, who plays Meat-kun, will also play Kinnikuman’s wife, Bibimbap, in the new TV anime series “Kinnikuman: The Perfect Superhuman Ancestors,” based on the popular fighting manga Kinnikuman. It has also been announced that Jun Kasama, who plays Brocken Jr., will play Brockenman, Brocken Jr.’s real father and cruel superhuman, and Tomokazu Seki, who plays Ramenman, will play Kinnikuman, a villain who uses cunning to “defeat Kinnikuman.” Katsuyuki Konishi, who plays Robin Mask, will play Iwao, a rock monster who is Kinnikuman’s subordinate.
Uesaka expressed her excitement, saying, “What a surprise…! I’ve been given the incredible opportunity to portray Bibimbap in a dual role! It’s a true honor to bring to life the beloved heroine Bibimbap…!! I’m thrilled to be able to embody both Meat-kun and Bibimbap, two characters who are the pillars of support for Kinnikuman! I can’t wait to start this journey with you all!”
Kasama shared his insights, saying, “The news of me playing Brockenman was a pleasant surprise, but it’s a role that I feel deeply connected to. Portraying Brockenman, Jr.’s father, a character who has shaped him so significantly is a rare opportunity for me to delve into Jr.’s character. I hope you’ll also appreciate the connection with Ramenman.”
Seki commented, “I, Seki Tomokazu, will also be in charge of the voice of, um, Kinnikuman! Working together with Iwao, I will do my best to defeat Kinnikuman! As previously announced, there is Ramenman, and then there is the new role of Kinnikuman. I will cherish and enjoy playing both characters!
Look forward to the broadcast!!”
Konishi said, “Hello everyone, I’m Iwao. I’ve been allowed to play the role of Iwao. So far, I’ve only appeared in episode 0, but I have worked hard with Kinkotsuman Sensei. I had a lot of lines.
I’m looking forward to seeing how that plays out on air. I hope you’ll all check it out with your eyes and ears.”
