This is hands down my favorite theme for Kunio. Hits that perfect feel of hot-blooded heroism he's all about.

'Nekketsu Koukou Dodgeball-bu'
[FC] [JAPAN] [MAGAZINE] [1988]
"The idea of a dodge ball game was envisioned by Hiroshi Sato (who worked at Taito at the time). Prior to development, the staff at Technōs, including the president, decided to open a dodge ball tournament at Shinjuku West Exit Park. The game was completed in five months by a team of six to seven people, including Sato, Kishimoto and M. Nomura, who programmed the game's AI. The game takes the rules of real dodge ball and makes changes to them in order to make the game competitive and violent instead of recreational. According to Yoshida, in the Famicom version each character was given stats and Power Shots because the arcade version was difficult (which was made to make gameplay short and force players to insert quarters into the game). The short timer of each match combined with the replacement players in the arcade version and the fact that only the leader could perform Power Shots (and if eliminated, the player was at a disadvantage) required that adjustments be made for the console version. These changes led to each team having their own strategies, strengths and weaknesses. This was also the first Famicom Kunio-kun game with super-deformed characters, which became a standard of the series since." ~Kunio-kun Wiki

Some of the characters from Kunio-kun no Dodgeball da yo Zen'in Shūgō for the Super Famicom. The art of our big-lipped friend here reflects pretty poorly on Japan’s visual on black people (or at least, cartoon visualization of black people). It’s great that has gotten a lot better since.
