Kidd Muscle is out on his feet: Storyline, Character [Character developments,] Action and Art; we rejoin this wrestling match between Kidd Muscle #6/Baron Maximilian vs. Kidd Muscle; with Roxy's freedom on the line and things still don't seem to be going well for Kidd as Maximilian has pounded him so much that he has gone to sleep, but as he comes from a family of wrestlers, he can also perform wrestling basically in his sleep as a mechanism, so you will see him stand up and fight/wrestle with Maximilian to begin with palm punches/strikes getting through, Kidd puts up for arms to block these strikes; so for a moment we have this excellent picture of Maximilian performer in his strikes and they are just hitting the forearms of Kidd.

This episode receives: 8/10, this episode is excellent; it picks its feet up and finishes this first episode with a bang

Kidd Muscle #6/Baron Maximilian vs. Kidd Muscle; with Roxy's freedom on the line: Storyline, Character [Character developments,] Art and Action; well we come back to this situation and what really did annoy me about Kidd Muscle in this episode was his cocky and arrogant personality; it's like he hasn't learned anything over the past 49/50 episodes hence why I found it really annoying. On first impressions the appearance and wardrobe of Baron Maximilian is dapper and with his grease lightning attacks; this is going to be a highly fought match.

This episode receives: 6/10, this episode is good; after everything is said and done this is a fair outcome.

Kidd Muscle #5/Jagg-Ed and is tag team partner Kidd Muscle #6/Baron Maximilian vs. Kidd Muscle and Kevin Mask; with Roxy's freedom on the line: Storyline, Character [Character developments,] Art and Action; our final take place inside a wrestling ring, inside Mount Fuji; Mask has a estimated guest that Ed is the stronger of the opposing team based on size and mass, Mask performs a standing Frankenstein [yes they went with this name so I am going with it as well] on Ed, it was a neat, tidy and highly impactful as Ed lands on his head [on a quick side note; yes I know in any real scripted wrestling match, your opponent is not and I repeat that is not meant to land directly on the head; basically here doing hands down without no hands] but I digress; likewise the artistic visions were neat and tidy as well.

This episode receives: 9/10, this episode is excellent; there is an excellent show for Kevin Mask in this episode.

Dik-Dik Van-Dik takes one for the team: Character [Character development,] Storyline, Action and comedy; Van-Dik has made the decision to go 2-on-1 with the French Connection; Kidd Muscle #3/Mr. French and Kidd Muscle #4/Monsieur Cheeks as Wally Tusket goes to take care of something of greater importance; Van-Dik takes the tag and then throws Tusket so hard that he goes flying up in the air, the it has a comical tone.

Pull my finger?: Character [Character developments,] Storyline, Comedy and Action; Kidd Muscle #3/Mr. French and is tag team partner Kidd Muscle #4/Monsieur Cheeks vs. Wally Tusket and Dik-Dik Van-Dik; with Kiki's freedom on the line. I don't have too much to say about this episode really for a heavy amount of time; it is fart/gas or other bits of comedy or/and this bodily function in the attacks; which I hope they scale this back a little in the next episode.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; this episode is just extremely goofy. I will give you a heads up right now, this is one of those occasions where we can have one of these episodes once in a while, but not prejudging the next episode. But if we have another similar episode, I won't be so laid-back or/and lenient, yes I chose to take more or less a general sense in this content because there is a lot of it.

The Poison Six-Pack: Character [Character developments,] Storyline Action and Art; as we now know that leads to of these disguised Kidd Muscle; Kidd Muscle #1/The Protector and his tag team partner Kidd Muscle #2/Dazzling are taking on Terry Canyon and his partner Jade; that if they win this tag team match they will win the right to have one of the hostages back in this case, it will be Trixie. We the viewers get to see Dazzling uses his claws to scratch/claw/gouge/create a massive hole in the mat where he and Canyon [well I guess that is one way to escape from a texas cloverleaf variety leg submission;] I have phrased it in this manner so it keeps everybody happy; but Jade also takes a fall as well into the maze of doom; this small snippet is highly imaginative art.

This was an unforeseen turn of events: Action, Character [Character developments,] Storyline and Art; these individuals come out of nowhere on their motorcycles and kidnap/hold hostage Roxanne, Kiki and Trixie and challenge Kidd and other wrestlers to a series of tag team matches [3 one for each woman for each match Kidd and others win they will release one hostage.] Speaking of these three women held hostage a little later we get to see them in this spaceship with Roxanne and Kiki in this prison together, whilst Trixie is in this test tube. Now for a little bit more detail this prison with Roxanne and Kiki; looks like of dark interpretation of a scarecrow and the bars are divisions of his teeth with this long scarecrow nose on the end of it like snort; it is the test tube that circle to give the impression of snort.

This episode receives: 8/10, this episode is excellent; yes it was unforeseen, but it is a pleasant surprise.

Sasaki/Sasaki the Wonder Slug: Storyline, Action, Character [Character developments] and Comedy; basically it is a three legged race and all Kidd has to do is come in the top 12 and he will qualify, the first obstacle; is this incredibly steep diagonal road; so Sasaki decides to take this massive leap; what must go up, must come down right? Well not in this case as Sasaki now informs Kidd and us the viewers that, because and in a nutshell he has this very special gift of incredibly sticky sweat which means he can stick to surfaces [yes I am not making this up, this is actually in this episode;] so someone has a open-minded sense of humour.

This episode receives: 8/10, this episode is excellent; in one way or another it does have lots to offer its viewers

The Chojin Crown Tournament; let’s just move on to Event 2; Beech Flags with a twist: Storyline, Character [Character developments,] Action and Art; in this tournament We begin with 3 Event that are meant to test these wrestlers; it is winners stay in losers are eliminated, in this case; we have these Heats of 3 wrestlers as they have to run, win this race and quickly grab this individual as they fall from high up hanging out of his mouth which releases to begin the fall; yes there is this protective mat, but from high up I wouldn't want to risk it, so someone there to catch these individuals. Now from where the individuals are being held up in these individual heats; This red headed Demon is really well designed and highly detailed; even though we don't get to see too much of him close-up, you can still see the high-quality design and art.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; full disclosure it does feel like this episode does take some time to get going what with the admin and on top of that the first event not being that good, so I have in all fairness not hidden anything from you, but very much just let it reflect in my marking of this episode.

"The Scouts of the Soil's" El Nino: Storyline, Character [Character developments,] Action and Art; this is the guy that Kidd Muscle will have to wrestle right now in this episode, if he wants to take the final spot in the Chojin Crown Tournament. The name of his faction/stable comes from with his children [in attendance] and himself as they come from a farming background; they are the protector of peasants, the downtrodden and they are fearless. He performs this thrash suplex; he blocks/reverses this to take from Kidd that comes in flying feet first, so Nino hooks his feet underneath his arms and takes Kidd down using the bridge of a german suplex [holding until the end of delivering this reversal;] so Kidd finds himself on the mat face down and this is an imaginative, creative and different take on a form of a german simplex sort of suplex.

This episode receives: 8/10, this episode is excellent; and swiftly moves on to the tournament [or just to cover my back, because I haven't seen the next episode yet,] but having said that; let's just presume it does move on to the tournament; it sets things up nicely just to continue things from here.

On Planet Harbote; at The Universal Trojan Committee/ The Universal Superhero Committee: Art, Storyline Character [Character developments] and Comedy; at this location things are looking bleak as this location is looking rundown and it has seen better days, Vance McMadd is furious by the level of success Kidd Muscle and consequently the celebrity status he is now having and when you think things can't get any worse; they are struggling to pay their bills. From out of nowhere appearing from out of the dark his son appears Ikemen Muscle and makes him jump with this reminder; "Hey son remind me to get a paternity test."

Family dramas: Comedy, Character [Character developments,] Storyline and Action; basically Roxanne is on top of this ladder blowing into this Lantern of Might trying to keep these flames alight as it is linked in this case to the Kidd's essence of ultimate muscle so as things aren't going about well it is starting to wane, on top of this we have all of this family drama's unravelling all over the place in one way or another. The elements of the action that I'm going to make reference to is either or Bone Cold or Kidd coming off the ropes, which I have to say these ropes are incredibly springy as they get to individually a good build up for their attacks.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; this is just another solidly good episode, by their usual high standards

Master Mitch has been withholding a secret from Meat; Part 2: Storyline, Character [Character developments,] Art and Action; this is one of those episode where I can't tell you too much about it, because in one way or another that is pretty much the focal points of this episode. But what I can say is; it is life changing

Bone Cold's wrestling ring; as I have previously made reference to it has a face in it, including as we discover in this episode a moving mouth part, so Cold kicks this sliding bit too squash Kidd in between the mouth/teeth mechanism; excellent imagination used here.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; we have big things being revealed and things are progressing nicely.

Master Mitch has been withholding a secret from Meat: Comedy, Storyline, Character [Character developments] and Art; well straight off the bat basically runs to the portal with these other characters, but slips on a banana peel and then gets his antlers stuck in the word flooring, so he misses out. Master Mitch and Meat discuss things such as it is Meat happy with his lot in life, with basically being a part of two generations of Kinnikuman wrestling family dynasties. Meat gets the impression that he is withholding something, I should point out his inclination gets more and more louder as we progress throughout this episode, they are actually using a build-up method to the big reveal that some point hopefully in the near future.

Bone Cold's wrestling ring is sculpted from stone or that kind of material come so yes our next wrestling match is taking place on stone with an excellent face which is terrifying to whomever treads on it.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; it is designed to lay the groundwork for the next episode to be explained hopefully then

Kidd is reborn: Storyline, Action,  Character [Character developments] and Art; Kidd gets thrown from this ring via Hanzo performing a avalanche frankensteiner where he has called upon another special move, where this tatami puppet [WWE vacant figure] comes up from the ground in this case is the double team partner of Hanzo to hold up Kidd on shoulders and Hanzo does the rest and because this side of the ring has no side to it as it was taken out of action earlier, Kidd takes a long, long, long fall into the water below. Deep in the water, this is where the artistic visions can be easily seen as we can see Kidd talking to Ninja Ned about things from these this surrounding, to conversation [Character developments] to wrestling images and getting back into the fight.

This episode receives: 8/10, this episode is excellent; it builds things up nicely to the next and final challenge for Kidd in this saga.

Guiding: Comedy, Storyline, Character [Character developments;] we have Meat; I am paraphrasing here; to Kidd. The house you are sitting in the owner would like to come in and use the toilet. Now without saying too much, after what happened in the previous episode; we see Kidd cowering in this person's house [like a cabin.] Now whilst he is cowering Ninja Ned comes to him; to give him a dress down but inspiring speech, about he has a lot to teach him. This entire back and forth between these two characters, including the artistic vision for all of this section has true emotions captured within the art.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; but if you have or have not been keeping up to date with these episodes in their chronological order, I will simply say this without once again giving too much away. Yes have already done this kind of thing, it is slightly different but in the same field as the thing with Jade.

Warning: there is flashing/colourful/other effects/bodily functions/transformation/disfigurement - the sound effects and aftermath may be a little bit much for some viewers.

Ninja Ned Master of Shadows: Storyline, Character [Character developments,] Action and Art; this character has a big impact on this episode, he once was a bad guy but he defected over the good guys. He has a long association with Sergeant Kinnikuman, working alongside him or running his own unit to basically take down bad individuals.

A little later; we experience what happened to one of Ninja Ned's unit where his face got taken off by Kidd's next opponent Hanzo the Horrible when he calls upon his special attack "Mount Fuji FaceLift" using his Soul Sword where the souls stay in this whirring gas he doesn't just take their face off and leave them with essentially a mannequin's face, he also takes their soul and yes for an attack it is highly devastating and highly imaginative, but however we all know Shang Tsung [Mortal Kombat] does taking souls much better.

This episode receives: 10/10, this episode is top-notch entertainment; on reflection I have decided to give this episode, my top marks based on the grounds there is lots of meaningful content happening.

The dMp's/The NightMare's Checkmate returns: Storyline, Comedy, Character [Character developments] and Action; basically we have Wally Tuskin giving his mother and sister this recount of the rivalry between Checkmate and Kidd Muscle the first/last time they went head to head, so we get this recount via storyteller/mental imagery outline and from out of nowhere Terry "The Grand" Kenyon hijacks Tuskin's flashback, they briefly discuss it with Tuskin asking what they are doing here? With Kenyon saying basically I do this thing better than you and throughout this recount/flashback we can see this action of previous events with character development as well, with Kenyon finishing off by saying my fajitas are ready, gotta go, bye.

The Ultimate Muscle Challenge: Storyline, Art and Character [Character developments] and Action basically; The High Elders of The Muscle League have summoned Kidd Muscle and Meat on Planet Muscle; I have a strong feeling that whomever came up with this council room location was at minimum a Star Wars fan based on the fact this location has a strong mimic of the High Council Chamber from the era of the second/prequel trilogy from Episode I - The Phantom Menace 1999, Episode II - Attack of the Clones 2002 and Episode III - Revenge of the Sith 2005; it looks of the most highest quality and mimic. Where discuss the disapproving methods of his wrestling, because he is putting a lot of unnecessary wear and tear on his body, what he has to repair the damage and his form of Ultimate Muscle is in comparison to other members weak as it is proven when the power is up to the form of Ultimate Muscle and he channels his power through these grips to light this Lentern's flame; this Lentern known as The Muscle League's Lentern of Might, which Kidd did, but as we also get to see nowhere near to his father/King Muscle's level of flame.

This episode receives: 8/10, this episode is excellent; after taking everything into consideration, like setting the ground work down and pushing things forward this episode finds itself at this mark

New signature move/finishing move: Storyline, Character [Character developments,] Comedy; as we have learned by now that Kinniku Buster is for here and now a unreliable finisher, Kidd has to work out a new signature/finisher move, he fails on his first attempts and because he is getting heavily beaten up by Mars. He has this out of body experience where he meets his father King Muscle, live this wrestling ring between them to begin with, as they discuss things such as him not being there for his son and this potential new signature/finisher move which some point in this conversation we have Kidd talking about the semantics in a nutshell version the wrestling ring implying it is circle, but in reality it is square, which irritate his father.

Kidd comes back to reality in short on to his final attempt he out sends Mars up and falling back down to the ring Kidd in this time sling shots himself from the inside of the ropes like a bullet out of a gun using his head/face into the back of Mars holding out his arms and pushing him against the opposite side of the ring ropes with fantastic force; this signature/finisher move goes by the name Muscle Millennium.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; it is a good conclusion to this tournament.
