STORY

Mr. Muscleman is a prince from the Muscle Star located in the Great Muscle Nebula, 50 billion light years away from earth. Twenty years earlier, he was accidentally mistaken for a piglet and thrown out of the space ship which the Great Muscle King and his queen used to travel to earth.Mr. Muscleman, thus, ended up in Japan. He has one of the best fighting techniques in the universe, yet he is clumsy in everything he does.However a chance has arisen for the bumptious Mr. Muscleman to deal with the space monsters lead by Mr. Toughbones, who have come attacking earth one after another. But the Japanese government, exasperated by Mt. Muscleman's constant blunders, summons the superhuman and extremely popular Terryman from the United States. Although depressed by Terryman's strength and popularity with women, Mr. Muscleman soon brings himself out of the dumps, and finally manages to quell the space monsters somehow.Next our superhuman hero uses connections to get selected as Japan's representative to the upcoming Olympics. Though he displays great fighting versatility, it is just like Mt. Muscleman to make repeated mistakes and blunders.Thus unfolds the checkered and farcical fate of our would-be super hero.
