"Well, get a whiff of that! The one and only "ramen bomber" has entered the ring. It's Min Min! This young lady proves that "noodle arms" ain't no joke—They pack a real punch! And don't let her size fool you—Min Min's fighting can kick it with the best of 'em."
—Biff

Min Min is a playable fighter in ARMS. She is a Chinese martial artist who battles to promote her family's ramen restaurant.

Appearance

Min Min appears mostly human except for her spiraled irises and her ramen-like hair and ARMS. She has green eyes, blonde hair with straight-cut bangs and a fringe, along with an orange mask. Slices of narutomaki (a Japanese processed fish product sometimes found in ramen) are attached to the upper part of her noodle arms. When fully charged, her left noodle arm transforms into a dragon. She wears an orange beanie shaped like an upside-down ramen bowl, an orange athletic shirt, orange athletic shorts, black calf-length leggings, and green sneakers. Other outfits she wears includes a chef-like version of her outfit consisting of an orange shirt with a small bowtie on the collar, matching shorts and orange leggings as well as an apron with her logo on it and black flat shoes, a white sweater revealing blue bra or undershirt straps and blue jeans along with two of her badges pinned to her hat, as well as a dark orange kimono with white fur on the top, a yellow bow in the back, and a pair of black zōri (Japanese sandals) with orange straps. She's also shown to wear her hair in a ponytail with a green hairband and into a loose bun held by a green chopstick with a narutomaki on it.

Backstory

"A member of ramen royalty, she hails from the famed Mintendo Noodle House! Her spicy kicks are known to knock down her opponents' attacks. Can her fiery personality bring the championship belt home to her family's restaurant?!"
Official description


Abilities

Min Min can execute a kick on the ground or in the air which knocks down oncoming attacks. By charging her ARMS for longer than usual or successfully completing a throw, Min Min can transform her left arm into a dragon. While in dragon form, the equipped arm will remain charged until Min Min is knocked down, losing the dragon arm.

Trivia

  • Min Min was announced during a Nintendo Direct on April 12th, 2017.
  • As her theme suggests, her native language is Chinese.
  • Min Min is the only fighter to be shown with two different ARMS in her official art.
  • The Mintendo Noodle House's name is a portmanteau of "Min Min" and "Nintendo."
  • Despite being of Chinese descent, her hair is blonde instead of dark (a usual Chinese trait) due to her hair resembling noodles.
  • Min Min's logo is a stylized version of the Chinese character "麺" (lit. men), meaning "noodle."
  • On the Japanese version of the ARMS website, Min Min's weight is listed as "On a diet", rather than "Unimportant".
  • Under normal circumstances, if Min Min wins a match with her dragon arm activated, it will be seen in her victory animation; however, if she wins a team match, her dragon arm will always be absent.
  • Min Min is the first fighter to both win a Party Crash and lose one (Stretch to the Limit and Martial Arts Mash-Up respectively).
  • Min Min is the first fighter to be featured in three Party Crashes.
  • Min Min was crowned the ultimate victor of the Party Crash Bash tournament after a victory against Ninjara on June 17, 2019.
