** According to Wiki/TheOtherWiki, Black Hole and Pentagon are actually cousins and it's possible that the tournament was a good chance for Black Hole to get a rematch with Kinnikuman, so he joined up with Pentagon. That, and they must have had enough fans to warrant a new appearance for both of them.

* I noticed a continuity error concerning Suguru's scar on his side, which Warsman found to be Kinnikuman's weakness. It happened when he was three years old, right? And due to Mayumi not watching him and being DistractedBytheSexy. The thing is, Suguru was abandoned as an infant after being mistaken for a pig. So this can't have happened.

** It's said during the scramble for the throne arc that Suguru was actually abandoned at 6 years old, though this might or might not be a retcon.

*** Mayumi and his wife (sorry, don't remember her name) seem like people a bit too stuck in their traditional ways to do it that way. For instance, his mom just IMMEDIATELY decides to initiate the tournament.

* Maybe this is established somewhere else (I've only seen the 4Kids dub of Nisei) but how does the Kinniku Buster cause more damage to the opponent than the one performing it. They aren't the ones being bashed into the ground from miles in the air.

** The Evil Gods might have something to do with that. They might have altered the four fake prince's(I want to say five but one of them is not what he seem to be) DNA or something that could nullify the paternity test.

* Why couldn't they have just made Mayumi take a paternity test to show who's the real prince instead of letting such a violent process such as the Throne Arc happen?

** First off, a security guard did saw Warsman's face(in the manga, don't know if the same thing happened in the anime) only for Mr.Barracuda to say that he only saw a mask and he's currently shaving. In other words the guard take Mr Barracuda's word for it. Mr Barracuda just lied to the guy and he believes it.

** [[spoiler: Turns out the skull insignia on Brocken Jr.'s hat is a AppliedPhlebotinum that grants the heirs of his family the strength to become Chojins following their harsh training and Jr happened to inherit it from his father after his demise.]] This explains how he managed to survive the triple threat from the rest of Team Intelligence and took down Prisman in a HeroicSacrifice.

*** That doesn't explain why it took so long for it to find the difference between Brocken and The Ninja, [[ItMakesSenseInContext who had stolen his face]].



* The situation with Kinnikuman Soldier. [[Since Ataru beat up the real Kinnikuman Soldier (who was supposed to be possessed with the Evil God of Brutality )and impersonated him to get into the Throne competition, why didn't any of the other Evil Gods pick up on it from day one? Better yet, if the God of Brutality knew that his prince was a fake, why did he "possess" Ataru? More importantly, if he was a fake, who the hell was that appearing with the other Evil Gods to power up Mixer Taitei to seal away Suguru's Burning Inner Strength? It wouldn't make sense for Ataru to go along with sabotaging his own little brother by handicapping him. Maybe he was forced to do it?]]
* In the 21st Choujin Olympics, when a reporter walks in to see Warsman's mask by itself, naturally causing him to freak out. Mr. Barracuda tells him that Warsman just removed his mask to shave his beard, which isn't a head-scratcher. The head-scratcher is when we get to see [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/warsman_unmasked_1765.JPG what's under that mask]]; how can hair possibly grow under there?
