In one of the game's trailers (created by Tim & Eric of Adult Swim fame) it is revealed that Professor Genki was a renowned professor of science at the Science University College of Science. Genki taught along side Todd, his pet cat whom he loved. Genki, fearing his own mortality, set to work on creating a magical device that would fuse the two together so that they may live forever in harmony as a half-man half-cat being. The experiment was a success. People were in awe of Professor Genki's new form, as his head had morphed into that of a cat. He then became the international spiritual leader, replacing the Pope. The experiment wasn't without side-effects, as Genki's enlarged brain gave him powers far beyond any mortal and an insatiable appetite for wet cat food and human brains. He became all powerful, supreme and a worshiped leader. The nature of Genki was irreversible.
