Description
Kinniku Mayumi, the 57th monarch of Planet Kinniku, ascends from a lineage defined by innovation and rivalry. Son of Tatsunori Kinniku—creator of the Niku Curtain—Mayumi inherits the throne overshadowed by his lifelong competition with Harabote Muscle, a future Chojin League chairman. Their bond, forged in youth during the discovery of the imprisoned Nemesis, ignites Mayumi’s resolve to reform his clan’s injustices, a vow rooted in his father’s admiration for the captive.

His reign fractures under familial strife. Rigid training drives his eldest, Ataru, to rebellion and exile, pushing Mayumi to indulge his second son, Suguru. Yet paternal flaws endure: heated clashes, a mistaken identity during an Earth excursion where he confuses Suguru for a pig, and the accidental abandonment that permits the swine King Tōn to seize the throne. To reclaim power, Mayumi enlists Meat Alexandria to retrieve Suguru, only to resort to trickery when his son falters.

Amid Suguru’s wrestling ascent, Mayumi vacillates between bumbling antics and earnest advocacy, championing his son’s entry into tournaments like the Chojin Olympics while sparring with Harabote. The Survivor Match for the Kinniku Throne unveils deeper turmoil: a hospital fire’s ambiguity casts doubt on Suguru’s legitimacy, compelling Mayumi to confront buried secrets and the reemergence of Ataru, whose name the family had vowed to silence.

Though eccentric—exemplified by a curry-only culinary repertoire—Mayumi shares a steadfast bond with his wife, Sayuri, and unveils latent strategic acumen by deciphering the Muscle Prophecy Book during crises. Unaware of his clan’s Three Great Secrets, he nonetheless navigates leadership with sporadic clarity. In later years, his influence wanes, yet he persists as a grandfather to Mantaro, echoing his dynamic with Suguru in a timeline shadowed by Sayuri’s absence.

His legacy intertwines comedic missteps, reluctant sovereignty, and an undercurrent of familial loyalty, framing him as an imperfect yet devoted patriarch within the Kinniku dynasty’s storied legacy.
