* ''Manga/{{Kinnikuman}}'': A vast majority of the characters are Choujin, or superhumans, with names that fall into "something"-man. Kinnikuman himself is an example, his name meaning "Muscleman". Some are direct references to what they are or their powers, such as the six-armed, multi-faced Ashuraman, or the metal, coily Springman. Others are less obvious or outside reference, such as Terryman, named for real life wrestler Terry Funk, or the Chinese martial artist Ramenman. The oldest Choujin known, a literal god descended from heaven, drops the "something" altogether and known simply as "The Man."
