Kinnikuman Perfect Origin Arc episode 5 will air on Sunday, August 11, 2024, at 11:30 pm JST. The broadcast will air on CBC and TBS (Agaru Anime) for Japanese audiences, and Netflix will stream it worldwide. It is being adapted by the studio I.G. Production.

The most recent episode picked up from where the previous one left off, with the arrival of new fighters to the battle with the Perfect Large Numbers, who happened to be the Devil Chojin, including Buffaloman.

In that regard, Buffaloman broke his allegiance with the Idol Chojin, and one of the Devil Chojin, SteCase King, took over the bulk of the episode as he was fighting Turboman.

This series is an adaptation of the 2011 manga and serves as a direct sequel to the original Kinnikuman series of the 70s and 80s. This serves as a reestablishment of the original story's lore and plot.

Recap of the previous episode

The episode started where the previous one left off as Terryman saw the arrival of the Devil Chojin as they decided to take over the fight against the Perfect Large Numbers. Buffaloman also reveals to Terryman that he is no longer their teammate and is only here to end this war, not to side with the Idol Chojin.

In that regard, one of the enemies in one of the major arcs within the original manga, SteCase King, a Devil Chojin, went up against Turboman. The Perfect Chojin thought that SteCase King was outdated with his abilities but the latter proved him wrong as he had several new tapes of some of the strongest fighters in the series.

Perhaps one of the most memorable moments in the episode was how SteCase King made use of a tape of Kinnikuman Zebra, giving him the upper hand against Turboman.

This was coupled with the Devil Chojin having the tape of Neptuneman to capitalize on the battle, although the episode ended with the notion that the enemy still has a trump card.

There is a good chance that Kinnikuman Perfect Origin arc episode 5 will focus on the beginning of Kinnikuman's fight with one of the Perfect Large Numbers, Peek A Boo. However, it is also very likely that audiences are going to see the conclusion of SteCase King's fight against Turboman.
