Dead Signal (デッド・シグナル) is a living Traffic light from Japan and a member of Generation EX.
About[]
Dead Signal is a chojin composed primarily of traffic lights. He is a member of the second generation graduates from the Hercules Factory, named Generation Ex. He is a teammate of Scarface, Jade and Clioneman. We see him mostly during his first round match against Mantaro Kinniku, where he is swiftly defeated and is not seen again within the series. He attacks mostly with road-related attacks and techniques.
Personality[]
Despite been a Justice Chojin, Dead Signal is a mocking and brutal individual, having no respect for Mantaro or his seniors. He is a tricky opponent, as well as an strategic adversary, giving the fact that he is able to manipulate his rival into follow his signals against his will.
Appearance[]
Literally, the incarnation of the traffic signs. His whole body, while shaped in a rather humanoid body, is compouse of different signs and traffic elements, like his chest that is a traffic light, or his face, that is a triangular signal. He has slim limbs, and a pair of signals attached on each side of his arms.
History[]
Kinnikuman Nisei[]
HF First Year Replacement Arc[]
Dead Signal is introduced alongside his colleagues in the Hercules Factory Replacement Matches, where he graduates with honours alongside Jade, Scarface, and Clioneman. [1] It is announced that the new graduates - Generation Ex - will battle the old graduates in a tournament much like soccer divisions, to see who will stay on Earth as its protectors. He is matched against Mantaro Kinniku in the first rounds. [2]
He watches eagerly during the Seiuchin vs. Clioneman match, where he mocks Seiuchin's defeat as boring and claims a stray dog provides more interest. Mantaro places the dog before him, which urinates over him, and provokes a fight, causing both men to be held back and stopped. [3] He enters Kawasaki Stadium for the Block B second fight; Mantaro starts strong, but Dead Signal plays a 'Detour' sign, changing his face-plate to a road-signal, and Mantaro is forced to swerve away. [4]
Dead Signal gains the upper-hand, even bringing in weapons to attack Mantaro, but Harabote Muscle rules that the moves are legal due to Dead Signal not leaving the ring during his attacks. [5] Mantaro gains an advantage by learning he can create road-signs in return, which must be obeyed, and he uses his blood to make these signs. [5] Dead Signal releases tar over the ring and turns the surface into concrete, after which the two exchange a series of attacks and Mantaro saves a dog from Dead Signal's wrath and worst attacks. [6]Mantaro defeats Dead Signal with a Butt Buster. [7]
