Description
Chairman Harabote, born Harabote Muscle, governs the Chōjin Committee as its chairman, presiding over intergalactic Chōjin tournaments and operations. A childhood companion turned lifelong rival of Mayumi Kinniku, their bond formed through a playful yet competitive dynamic, including their shared discovery of Nemesis’s prison during youth—an event that forged their perspectives on leadership and justice. A decorated former wrestler, he clinched victory in the 11th Chōjin Olympics, thwarting Mayumi’s bid for a third consecutive title. Though their rivalry mellowed into mutual respect, their interactions remain punctuated by comedic clashes, such as exhibition bouts employing outdated maneuvers that draw jeers from audiences.
As chairman, he orchestrates high-stakes events like the Survivor Match for the Kinniku Throne and Dream Chōjin Tag Tournament, frequently acting as referee or commentator. His tenure is characterized by administrative quirks, such as determining tournament brackets via a colossal pachinko machine—a tactic that sparks occasional backlash from competitors. Despite his position, he grapples with eroding authority within the Chōjin hierarchy, his adherence to traditional methods often clashing with contemporary expectations.
Compact in stature with a rounded midsection and eternally stern demeanor, he sports the signature cape and cranial fin of his home planet, Planet Harabote. His wrestling legacy includes signature techniques like the Body Scissors and Killer Key Lock, though these rarely surface during his bureaucratic tenure.
In later years, his managerial competence wanes, diminishing his influence within the Committee. This decline parallels his contentious dynamic with Mantaro Kinniku, whom he deems unworthy of the Kinniku legacy due to perceived laziness—a disdain echoing his earlier criticisms of Mantaro’s father, Suguru. Yet during pivotal crises, he grudgingly recognizes their latent capabilities. He eventually relinquishes his chairmanship to son Ikemen Muscle, assuming a ceremonial role. Ikemen perpetuates his father’s biases, initially opposing Mantaro while grappling with leadership challenges.
His familial relations include daughter Jacqueline Muscle, with whom he shares a cordial but emotionally distant bond. Though favoring Ikemen, he quietly fears Jacqueline’s competence might eclipse her brother’s leadership. His parenting balances rigid demands with sporadic pride, particularly when Ikemen demonstrates fiscal ingenuity by revitalizing the Committee’s dwindling finances.
Across narrative arcs spanning the Perfect Origin and Omega Centauri’s Six Spears conflicts, he operates as a secondary authority figure, partnering with allies like Knock to supervise matches and mitigate crises. His legacy intertwines comedic missteps, inflexible governance, and an unyielding commitment to Chōjin order—even as emerging generations contest his antiquated approaches.
