History[]
Next time on miraculous! Ladybug and Cat Noir get caught by the bad guy, and he takes more than their Miraculous!!
Slum King is a giant samurai and the main antagonist in the central arc of Violence Jack.
After feeling depressed over killing Akira Fudo, Satan created the Slum King to punish himself. The Slum King keeps Ryo Asuka and Miki Makimura, who's arms/legs have been sliced off, as his pets. He is about the same height as Jack (roughly three meters) and has no skin, but instead wears samurai armor. He is the ruler of earthquake-devastated Kanto and has two children, Zubaban and Jannu. He clashes with Jack multiple times and finally loses to Jack due to interference from Ryo Asuka and Miki Makimura, which results in a 3 page beheading. He is alive and well after his brutal death in the next chapter and even beheads Zubaban with a one hit kill but was ultimately killed by a newly-revived Satan who then returns him and Zubaban's heads to their true form as Zenon. His face is not revealed until Jack removes his mask in battle.
The Slum King‘s face revealed(uhhh! Put it back! Its not done!)
In the final chapter its revealed After Satan killed Devilman(which sounds like a death metal song), he regretted this action. He made the Slum King from his dark side to punish them to make up for what he had done. After God's Angels returned Earth to how it was at the start of time(Creationism Confirmed) and he created this universe using the God Power of creating something from nothing (so like the Susano Oh chapter from a few volumes prior?). 1st he made Kanto like it was when its good but the image of a f'd Kanto was on his heart and he f'd it with the Hellquake so it would be like Kanto AFTER the apocalypse. Feeling bad about wacking Akira he made himself a Dog Person (Like Hitler? Both killed people and felt for dogs! See also: Vegans, but not the UFO Robo Grendizer bad guys) this was his conscience. He had the Slum King torment him and it was to see if his conscience or evil would win. Also his subconscious brought people to fight the Slum King like Ryu Takuma, Saburo Tenma and Takeshi Kaido. But the evil in his heart brought more from the King like The dragon or The Heretics. When King's power weakened, Ryo brought out Zubaban as another Alter Ego. To fight Zuba, Ryo made Honey Asuka and her babes to save Ryo's heart and unfallen him to Archangel mode, but if they failed he'd return to Fallen Angel. Also he made Jack outta Akira In Violence Jack,
30 years before the Hellquake, he was known as Takatora Doma and was the oldest son of the noble Doma family from Shinshu. Ginnai Doma sees his daughter poop out the Slum King as a baby he tries to chop him up for tearing her apart from inside like the d0ng monster from Alien. But his grandson shatters the blade on his fist and he realizes slum king is still his grandkid and he takes care of him. He has Slum king chained up in heavy armor as he's too strong to live without the armor and busts everything he touches. After 18 years of the Slum King being chained up in armor in a shed, Grandpa Ginnai Doma hires Yuko Akiba to teach his grandson to be a real man but even after his g kid learns more self control and uses his words, he knows the kid is evil and is gonna f everything up. So Yuko comes in nude and shows her curvy bod to him. But his younger bro Koji Doma lusts for her and watched from outside. As she comes out, Koji hits on her but she mouths off at him for being a bast-rd (Shaming!!) and he takes her dress so shes back to being nude and suggests b0ning her w/o consent. She knees him in the man parts and calls him a hick and goes back to being nude for Slum King and Koji watches. She makes good advancement with Slum king by letting him touch her nude body too show him control over his super human power. So later Koji raepes her but says sorry after so I guess its cool and he sez he likes her. Eventually Jinnai Doma dies and consents to Yuki letting Takatora out even though he knows Takatora will be a blight upon the land. She rides him wearing heavy armor like Inuyasha as he jumps and runs fast with her on his back. Later Takatora catches her being b0ned by Koji and he tears off Koji's head (like that scene in Black Lion with Ginnai tearing off that guys head) and tears Yuko in half by spreading her legs like with Tom Cat in Violence Jack Evil Town). 10 years later, in The Black Forest, Jack faces the Slum King and the Forest shows King his past and it f's with King.
Abilities[]
Pop Goes the weasel...or atleast its head.
Like Jack, Slum King is a giant, possessing great strength and agility. his main weakness is his lack of skin which makes him very sensitive, so being out of his armor stuns him. He also has wicked sharp katana skills and his armor can withstand death rays (such as from Iron Kaiser) and can cause almost any blade used on him to break. He's also part of Zenon.
OVA[]
He gets the coolest fight in the anime, but its short and right at the start xP
In the Violence Jack Harlem Bomber OVA he is just a warlord who has taken over Kanto with an iron fist who was offended that Violence Jack was stronger than him so he sends his (most possibly weaker) minions to take out Jack. He is seen again in the 3rd OVA as a nonspeaking cameo at the end that was contacter by Dante's blonde man but that is as far as the story goes in the anime as there are only 3 OVA's.
In here, he was voiced by Shigezou Sasaoka; who was also Mazinger in God Mazinger, Morley Edwards in Mad Bull 34, Kensho Yonabaru; Mukai in Riki-Oh 2: Horobi no Ko, Earthquake in Samurai Shodown: The Motion Picture, the Sorcerer in Slayers Great, Sagat in Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie, Col. Joe Yazawa; Veeda in The Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross, and Hanma in Wedding Peach.
In the Manga UK dub he's voiced by John Bull who was Golan Vivaldi / Innkeeper / Priests in The Witcher, Touma's Father in Sakura Diaries, Security in Tokyo Babylon, Cop in New Dominion Tank Police , Chopper Pilot in Patlabor 2, Guryushika in Gunnm, Capo / Cops / Jim in Mad Bull 34, Thug / Dancer / Walla in Devilman:The Birth aand Devilman:Demon Bird Sirene, Hackker in Angel Blade Cop and Mad Saulus in Violence Jack Evil Town.
Cameos[]
Just like in Violence Jack Harlem Bomber, he fights once and does nothing else onscreen for the rest of the OVA.
- New Cutey Honey: Slum King has a cameo in New Cutey Honey OVA 6 as a Samurai attacking people from the park where Yasha was from.
- Shin Mazinger Shougeki! Z Hen: Kabuto Kouji breifly wears Slum King's helmet while wielding a zanbato named Slum King.
Background[]
Slum King's name may have been derived from the British rock band King of the Slums.
Given how the Slum King keeps Miki and Ryo as limbless sex slaves, it is implied that he may have some acrotomophilic (amputee fetish) tendencies. However, this could possibly just be a punishment assigned to Miki and Ryo or it could be an allusion to the Yakuza disciplinary ritual known as "Yubitsume", a ritual that involved cutting away a person's finger or other part of their body as punishment for an offense in a Yakuza group.
