This animated sequel, produced by Production I.G, marks the first in 32 years.
Amazon describes the first volume of Kinnikuman – Road to the Championship Saga as follows:
The Kinnikuman manga comic is finally translated in English! This is the first saga where Kinnikuman rises to fame through the wrestling field. He makes fast friends and foes alike!
