Kinnikuman 237

As if facing the Stray Devil Combo and the other two teams were bad enough, Terry must now face an entire Devil Choujin ghost squadron unrolled from Ashuraman's outfit! And some of them may even know who he is...

Chapter 237: Dream Choujin Tag Arc (29): Go Away, Evil Spirits!
(TN: The title in Japanese is “Akuryou Taisan”, an expression constantly used in Japanese culture to exorcise evil spirits from somewhere)

Mountain: Guhehehehe, this feeling…I’ve actually fought against the owner of this body before…
Planet: Of which we can feel too…
Ashura: Evil spirits, somehow you can see into Great’s true form!!

28.
Terry: This…is bad!! At this rate, they’ll discover that Great’s true identity is Terryman.
Terry: Sw…switch, Kinnikuman!
Terry: …………!!
Terry: Ri…
Terry: RIGHT…

29.
Ashura: Ka—kakaka, it’s disappointing, Great. The Kinnikuman you ask for is already trapped in the gondola!
Khamen: Ke—kekeke, Great, soon you too…
Khamen: Will have your identity exposed and be right by Kinnikuman’s side—
Terry: Sto…stop that—
Mountain: Guhihihihi, you have that voice when you’re desperate! You can imitate a voice, but you can’t change your own voice!!

30.
Ninja: Ke—kekeke
Terry: Uh.
Terry: Let go---!!
Mountain: Guhehehehe
Mountain: That voice, that voice.
Terry: Don’t come—

32.
Terry: Le…let go—
Mongol: Currently, we’re Kinnikuman’s antagonists…but I can’t forgive the foul measures of the devils…………!!
Buffalo: But we have to watch so the Choujin in the ring don’t escape. Our duty is as a wall. We can’t do anything……!!
Brocken: Fufufu…you’re acting so cool, 20 Million Powers!
Brocken: But, deep within their hearts, the Devil Combo simply wish to drown the Muscle Brothers in a sea of blood after all!!
Mongol: ………!!

33.
Buffalo: Mongolman!!
Ninja: Ke—kekeke
Terry: Le…let go—
Brocken: Are you going to let those cooperating devils do this—
Mongol: Si…silence—
Mongol: If you speak any more ill of me, I will kill you Brocken Jr.!!

34.
Mongol: Urya—
Meat: Watch out, Brocken!!
Brocken: Uwa

35.
Brocken: That guy, he was really trying to kill me!!
Meat: Hold…on Brocken…………!!
Meat: Lo…look closely there.
Brocken: Eh!?
Brocken: Aah!! Th…that mirror…are the Spirit World Pocket from when he saved Kinnikuman from the devil ghosts…
Meat: That mirror allows for living beings to transform into spirits temporarily so they can pass through the door that links the living world and the spirit world……
Meat: If you change yourself to a spirit, then you can fight those evil spirits for five minutes!

36.
Brocken: Right…Mongolman did save me at that time!!
Brocken: Thank you, Mongolman! Even if you’re an antagonist, you really are our ally!!

37.
Brocken: With the many casualties in the Justice Choujin this time, I’m the only one left! However, even if I’m alone, I will protect us from the hand of the ghost Choujin!!
Brocken: Great, endure a bit longer!!
Terry: Hey!! I’ll be waiting—
Mountain: Can you do that?

38.
Mountain: Who would fold their arms and wait for an enemy invasion! Haha—n, there’s the entrance to the Spirit World Pocket.
Brocken: Deya—
Mayumi & Meat: Hold on, Brocken!
Brocken: Uwa
Mountain: Backwards Spirit World Pocket Return!!
Brocken: Aah!! The ghost of Mountain is in the mirror…
Mountain: Guhehehehe, devils don’t repeat the same mistakes twice!!

39.
Brocken: Aah!!
Brocken: You cracked the Spirit World Pocket!!
Mountain: Guhehehehe, this time, you Justice Choujin will pay your tributes!!
(TN: Mountain uses a term “Nengu” here, which is an annual tribute or a land tax)
Brocken: Uwa

40.
Brocken: It’s…over!!
Announcer: The final wish of the Muscle Brothers has been cursed---!!
Terry: Th…that fool!!
Ashura: We—ll, you’ve done well evil spirits. Let’s slowly make our finishing touches----!!
Devil Choujin: Right!!
Announcer: Does Kinnikuman Great, who continues to resist the attacks of the persistent evil spirits, finally have an idea---!!

41.
Terry: Heh…I can’t do what I want anymore!
Mountain: Guhehehehe
Ashura: We’ve had bad luck for a long time, but we’ve finally come to the day of the collapse of the Justice Choujin!!
Sunshine: After we take off Great’s mask, we’ll take Kinnikuman’s mask! Guofuofuofuo.
Meat: Daioh-sama—
Mayumi: Meat—

42.
Ashura: Wh…what’s wrong, Mountain!!
Mountain: So…something falling from above is making my back burn!
Terry: Sn…snow……!?
Terry: N…no, it’s not snow! It’s…salt!!
Terry: The sweat from Kinnikuman’s body is drying and the created salt is falling down!!

43.
Terry: But why is this salt taking down the ghosts?
Terry: Right: In ancient times, Japan used purification salt to ward off evil spirits!!
Terry: Now I understand, I’m not scared of them!
Terry: Take this!! Muscle Salt—
Junk: Gya—
Stecase: Uwa--
Terry: Kinnikuman, you’re still living with just the tenacity to win, even while like that!

44.
Suguru: Living isn’t just the tenacity to win, Great!!
Terry: Yo…you’re alive!!

Suguru: Muscle Rolling!!
Announcer: With Kinnikuman’s miraculous revival, the Muscle Brothers are starting up once again—
Atlantis: Gyaa—

(DREAM CHOUJIN TAG ARC)
SPECIAL VTR XVI
KINNIKUMAN GREAT VS. ASHURAMAN

TN: Is it just me or did The Mountain...well, rock in this chapter? I guess it probably was just me due to how little I respected him back in his previous arc. Then, Mountain was just this huge rocky slab who fought Terry, lost and fell into a pit. But here...he actually seems much smarter and even destroys a portal that would have exorcised them without being part of the match! It is weird though: many of the Choujin who seemed to have a personality before are sucked away of one in this arc (Black Hole, Sunshine, even some of the canvas Choujin like The Ninja or Sneagator), but someone who was bland to begin with like Mountain...actually looks better due to this arc than worse! On the other hand...it was just another "convenient" conclusion regarding how the duo figured out how to eliminate the Devil Choujin army. I mean...how the heck could the Devil duo not realize that the sweat would dry up there leading to...well, an easy defeat of another gimmick? (but then again that happens all the time in this series)
