Hideyuki Hori as Warsman) Warsman is a Robo Choujin (Cyborg Superman) and possesses retractable iron claws called Bear Claws. He also has excellent artificial intelligence, calmly judging his opponents to defeat them within 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, his inner computer begins to shut down, and smoke emits from his body. Originally, he was a Zangyaku Choujin (Brutal Superman), but after the Choujin Olympics, he becomes a Seigi Choujin (Justice Superman). He typically has no facial expression, but when he faces a formidable opponent, a creepy smile known as the Warsman Smile appears on his face. Born half Robot and half Choujin in a poor Russian family, Warsman had a very rough childhood. Having been teased and ridiculed for his robotic face, he grew up getting into fights with various bullies. This is how he met Barracuda (secretly Robin Mask). Barracuda put him through hellish training to exact his own personal revenge on Kinnikuman, turning him into a blood-thirsty beast. The only thing that could calm Warsman down and keep him in check was seeing Robin's mask. Also, focusing intensely on the training caused Warsman to only communicate through a creepy breathing. Robin's revenge was set to take place at the 21st Choujin Olympics, where Kinnikuman was competing. Warsman's first opponent was Teapackman, whom he easily defeated and killed with his Screw Driver technique. In the next round, he faced Pentagon. Although Pentagon's aerial techniques worked on Warsman for a while, Warsman eventually tore off Pentagon's wings and eviscerated him with his Bear Claws. In the next round, Warsman fought the "Most Brutal Choujin," Ramenman, in a "Battle of the Beasts." Though Ramenman gave it his all, he couldn't gain an advantage over Warsman. Warsman threw him out of the cage and through a table, then jumped towards Ramenman with his trademark Screw Driver technique. Ramenman blocked it with the ring bell, thinking he had trapped Warsman's Bear Claws, but Warsman burst through the bell and stabbed Ramenman in the temple, turning him into a vegetable. Before his finals match with Kinnikuman, Barracuda requested it be a Mask Removal Death Match (if a member of Kinnikuman's clan reveals his face, he must end his own life). During the fight, Bibinba's kind words and Kinnikuman's refusal to kill him made Warsman turn to the side of good and destroy his Bear Claws (though they reappeared in the next story arc). After 30 minutes, Warsman's computer shutdown, and Kinnikuman defeated him with a Kinniku Buster. Afterwards, he and Robin became Idol Choujins and joined the Individual Battles during the Devil Choujin Arc. Warsman went up against their leader, Buffaloman. Although Warsman broke off one of Buffaloman's Long Horns, Buffaloman eventually killed him after a succession of Hurricane Mixers. Warsman was revived (along with Robin and Wolfman) by a dying Buffaloman, who became good after fighting Kinnikuman. During the Golden Mask Arc, Warsman was taken out early. During the fight with Planetman, Planetman made the faces of Warsman, Terry, Robin, Brocken, Bibinba, and Kinnikuman's parents appear on his body, causing Kinnikuman to not want to hit those parts. Warsman sacrificed himself by telling Kinnikuman to punch through his face, which was over Planetman's heart. After the fight, the remaining Devil Knights ventured into Warsman's unconscious body, and the Five-Story Ring matches took place. During the match against Ashuraman and Terryman, the fight temporarily took place on Warsman's heart. Terryman used Buffaloman's arms to shock Warsman's heart back to life, though he remained unconscious. Later, when Geronimo sacrificed himself so the other Choujins could escape, Warsman's tears flushed him out with them. Like the other Choujins, Warsman had his Friendship Power stolen by Ashuraman and Sunshine, causing him to turn on Kinnikuman when the Universal Choujin Tag Tournament came along. He instead teamed up with Robin to form the Choujin Master/Student Combo. The first match was against the Hell Missionaries (Neptuneman and Big the Budou). During the fight, Warsman was hit with Neptuneman's Quarrel Bomber clothesline, sending him into the ropes and, on the rebound, hit with the Double Leg Suplex, which knocked his mask off. It was after this that Neptuneman revealed his quest to collect the masks of the greatest Choujins. Warsman put his mask back on and continued to fight, but unfortunately, the shock from the Double Leg Suplex knocked out his sight, and he was soon killed by the Cross Bomber, adding his mask to Neptuneman's cape. When Mixer Taite separated Kinnikuman's Kajiba no Kuso Djikara from his body, he also separated his soul and sent it to the Choujin Graveyard. While there, Kinnikuman ran into Warsman and learned that Choujins can return to life if they collect 4 Life Spheres (from doing manual labor) within 6 months. Warsman offered Kinnikuman his spheres and helped him escape. During the semi-finals against Team Zebra, Dr. Bombay helped Warsman come back to life by implanting a Heart Crystal into him. Unfortunately, Warsman escaped before Bombay could completely restore his memory. He arrived in time to save Meat from The Manriki and then took his place in the fight. Because he hadn't regained all of his memory, he couldn't remember his own fighting style or even how to use the Bear Claws (he tried throwing them at one point). With the help of Robin Mask pretending to be Barracuda again, he regained his memory and fighting style and defeated Manriki with a Palo Special. Warsman trained in a bamboo forest outside of Nara for his finals match against Mammothman and (with hints from a hiding Neptuneman) learned how to defeat the Big Tusks. However, before Warsman could make it to Osaka Castle, Mammothman ambushed him and took him out. As he crawled on, Geronimo found him and took him to a hospital, taking his place in the finals. He showed up along with Terry, Ramenman, Wolfman, Jesse Maivia, and several other Seigi Choujins to cheer on Kinnikuman during the final match with Kinnikuman Super Phoenix.
