A man and his chicken.

Publicity shot of actor Tatsuya Nanjo as Hayate, and suit actor Bunya Nakamura as Hayate's alter ego, Henshin Ninja Arashi.

This show was created by Kamen Rider creator Shotaro Ishimori as a feudal Japan version of Kamen Rider. As such, I'm surprised writer/director Hideaki Anno didn't include some version of Arashi in his film Shin Kamen Rider (2023).

Or maybe Anno-san is saving Arashi for the sequel.

Some Stray Worldbuilding Elements

Someone pointed out to me recently that a lot of movie fights are constrained by what will fit in a camera frame. This leads to, among other things, often misleading or minimal visual examples of the proper use of long-distance weapons. So if you plan to have proper use of arrow volleys or tank battles, make sure you read up on their historical use in warfare. The wonderful thing about a book is we can make the view as wide as we like. Take advantage of it!

If you want a good visual of a pretty realistic, desperate life-or-death struggle between two characters at melee range, though, you might be interested in checking this movie out.

In Edo, a group of masked samurai storms a seafood wholesaler and commits murder, but the deaths have only begun....

Information I’ve found says was broadcast in 1981, as part of Fuji Television’s “Jidai Geki Special”. The plot was based on Shotaro Ishimori’s popular comic, specifically the story “One Leg of Darkness”.

It’s the last about 15 minutes that have the showdown between Sabu as an okappiki and a mad samurai. It’s long; I’m told it’s brutal. I personally didn’t have that reaction, when you’re fighting for your life you do what you have to and there was relatively little blood or injury compared to a lot of modern movies. But it does show someone having to take minutes to wear an opponent down long enough that the enemy finally collapses. Writers, take note!

Another few bits of interest. Want to see an example of a smart monster luring prey?

A green heron who figured out how to use bait to lure a fish!

Or real examples of what cavalry horses can do, and would know how to deal with?

Cossack trick riding. I was particularly impressed that they could get horses to jump the fluttering banners. And slashing bottles at head height, spraying water on horse and rider? Yes, a cavalry horse would need to be used to that, think about it....

In the mid-80s there was a rights dispute between Toei and Ishimori Pro (Shotaro Ishinomori's personal company) which resulted in Ishinomori, essentially, taking his Goranger and JAKQ and going home

So Toei had to quickly rebrand Battle Fever as the first sentai since they could no longer advertise the previous two, and part of that was throwing together that little "Turboranger vs Super Sentai" special, proudly advertising that 1989's Turboranger was now the TENTH anniversary of super sentai, which started in 1979, not 1975, don't worry about it!!

Anyway then in the mid-90s they kissed and made up and Ishimori let Toei acknowledge the first two seasons again, just in time for 1995's Ohranger to be proudly billed as the TWENTIETH anniversary, yay!!! A clean six years after the "10th anniversary".

(Incidentally, this is the actual source of that old myth that "Goranger and JAKQ weren't originally considered Super Sentai and the Super denoted a divide". They were Super Sentai from the first time that term was used! And then for a few years they weren't! And then they were again)

do you guys remember when the 39th sentai ninninger had more legacy crossovers than the 40th sentai zyuohger

Another piece for my Shotaro Ishinomori first battle series, this time featuring Henshin Ninja Arashi! I always loved the intro chapter for Arashi, there's so much going on at once with such amazing paneling!

This comic which ran in Nintendo Power magazine was done by Shotaro Ishimori, the creator of Cyborg 009.

What is Jet from Cyborg 009 doing in this Legend of Zelda comic?
