Kinnikuman Muscle Grand Prix 2/Wolfman

Wolfman

Story

Wolfman is a sumo-themed Choujin patterned after Chiyonofuji Mitsugu. (It was because of this that he was renamed "Rikishiman" in the anime, for fear of litigation). More specifically, not unlike Chiyonofuji himself, Wolfman is a yokozuna; the Choujin sumo yokozuna, for whatever that is worth. That's kinda all there is to Wolfman; he's just this proud (sometimes to the point of arrogant) sumo wrestler guy. Wolfman started the series off as a rival of sorts for Kinnikuman during the 21st Choujin olympics, holding a condescending attitude until the latter earned Wolfman's respect. Coming off of this relatively prominent role, Wolfman would join the initial core cast of Justice Choujins, though he would gradually fall off and eventually be relegated to squarely a B-list character. In fact, what is perhaps his most notable claim to fame is his jobber status, having died 2, arguably 3 times over the course of the series. (One time the authors forgot that they didn't kill him off after a particularly brutal battle, and he was treated as deceased for a bit by mistake.)

Gameplay

Wolfman is defined by his lengthy, sumo slap strings, with his two key strings being natural combos. This gravitates Wolfman to be more striking-focused, instead of the higher emphasis on throws standard with most MGP2 characters. He has a couple decent mid-ranged pokes, and unique throws with above-average range or low-profile properties. On the other hand, his movement and frame data leaves a lot to be desired, and despite having a special throw, its slow animation makes it very difficult to combo into.

Strengths	Weaknesses
Long, natural combo strings. Decent mid-range pokes. Solid OTG tools.	Poor movement. Special throw is difficult to combo into.
