Chinco Sennin
CharacterChinco Sennin is a non-canon figure from the comedic spinoff Chin Piece, remembered chiefly as the mentor who taught the boy Chinpy to control his unusual stretching ability. A shaggy, beast-like hermit, he turns up only in passing across the series.
Appearance
More creature than man, Chinco Sennin carries a frame so heavily matted with fur that little of his body shows beneath it. He supports himself on a walking stick, watches the world through a pair of oversized eyes, and bears a nose drawn out to an exaggerated point.
Personality
What little surfaces of his character points to a patient, encouraging teacher. Finding a young Chinpy seething after a failed fight, he chose to reassure rather than mock, steadying the boy by explaining the strength of the creature that had bested him. A later decision adds a blunt practical streak: offered a role in a film, he turned on his heel the instant it emerged that none of the cast would be paid.
History
Their first meeting came when Chinpy was fuming over his inability to bring down a Metsutsutcha Katapad. Chinco Sennin calmed him and, in the spinoff's framing, became the one who schooled him in his strange talent. Chinpy would think back on him afterward, including a moment spent fighting the urge to laugh under Mooo...rgan's rules. A separate brush with the cast director Eunkov ended quickly when the unpaid terms drove him off.
