RaMan started out as a quality dude at a nuclear power point. Kind of loserish, didn't have a lot of friends, nerdy, kinda bookish type. Had a real good friend, a girl, out in engineering that he totally had the hots for but never knew how to move it up to the next notch, y'know what I mean? Always kinda sweet, cool sorta dude but absolutely effin' clueless at the romancin' part of wooing and all that shit. Did I mention he like really loved ramen? Cause he really loved ramen. In his spare time he used to be an extreme couponer, those sorta crazy people that walk into a 7i and walk out with 4 slurpees, three whole pizzas, a pack of smokes even though he never touched the shit, and the store owin' him money to take it off their shelves. He thought it kinda made him a super hero, right? Super savings, super saving... same sorta shit. Anyway, one day he was busy clippin' his coupons left and right at work during lunch and the plant had a total meltdown that would later be completely covered up by the shady ass government he lived under. There was some experimental gas that got spread into the air that rearranged the uh
molecules?
Yeah, those things, between himself and the bowl of ramen he was eating. Dude passes out and finds himself woken up 2 years later in a giant test tube filled with chicken broth and he thinks, what the hell, this is great, I'll just eat my way outta this shit. But the evil scientists were running tests on him, and he finds out that NEXT to him, right? Is the same girl that he had fallen for but she looks totally different, like a pure 10/10 vixen just sleepin' in a jar. So of course, he needs to save her, right? So he starts drinking that shit down, findin' it kinda weird that he can breathe underwater but whatever that's not that important, and he goes to punch the window but he's a wet noodle.
Like.
Literal levels of wet noodle here. Arms completely transformed into spindly threds of glutenous goodness. He finds out that he can stretch those noodles, so he does that. He does the thing. The test tube fills up with so much ramen that the entire thing just EXPLODES AND BOOM shatters into a million pieces, so the alarms come off. But the dude's been in a test tube for like, ever, idk did I say 2 years? Something like that, 2 years, yeah, and then the guards come in. And he's nood as shit, still that kinda nerdy guy who was ashamed of his bod, hid behind a computer. But the computer got super soaked and drenched from all the broth he had absorbed, and short circuited. Defense system goes up, machine guns appear in the corners of the walls and start blaring everywhere like PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW, but HAH! dude's made out of ramen. You shoot one part and other noodly muscles just appear outta nowhere.
Saves the girl, they escape, and he has to hide himself from the rest of society. She has no idea what happened that day, but she remembers the gentle touch of a warm human ramen against her, carrying her to safety. She falls in love with RaMan, not knowing it's really always just been the nerd the entire time. And then flash forward to a bunch of crimes and robberies all over the city. He's there, he's kicking ass, and now he's.
Dude I'm glad you liked it, that was like my magnum opus of character designs and I don't think I can top that even if I tried, like, super goddamn hard.
[NOT THAT... TYPE OF FOXY!?
Does he need to explain the birds and the bees to Gundbro? Wait, that's a bad phrase. He probably knows all about the birds and the bees and bother species' of mating habits.
Ryuji just lets him have this one. It's easier that way.]
[Sure do hope Hajime doesn't see this text one day.]
You think I should've taken a diff angle with that? I didn't know how else to give 'em powers. And to be fair, it wasn't like the tube gave 'em his ramen powers, it was the nuclear fallout that fused his body with the ramen he was eatin' during lunch.
Yeah it's like a metagorical kinda thingy, you know?
[God... help him...]
But of course that'll be covered in the sequel to the first film when it goes deep on the backstory stuff and touched again from Hokkaido Fox's perspective in the spinoff

Yet you have neglected his compatriot. They were both suspended in jars-- she was also being subjected to experimentation!
Clearly she must have been a most treasured friend if he is able to discern that it is her despite her complete change in appearance!
Besides you never specified. Can she shape shift into the Hokkaido fox or the Japanese red fox?
[Someone wildly misinterpreted what vixen meant-- but.]

Oh my shit
Yeah of course
You totally got it, Hokkaido fox 100%.

You have to take into account your audience, Ryuji!]
FUAHAHAHA HA HA HA HA HA! SPLENDID!
A truly compelling twist!

It seems like a rather cliche and entirely unjustifiable way to impress superhuman abilities in mortal beings.

Without the talent tube even.]
I suppose the mere aesthetic of the glass shattering all around him as he escapes from his confining prison is certainly a worthy spectacle to behold.
One needs to visualize it beyond the realm of verbalization to see the true power in it.
