Masked Ninja Red Shadow
What is the masked ninja Akakage!
I googled it, and it turns out it’s a pretty old special effects series…
>>1It’s not that old since it was when Toyotomi Hideyoshi was still called Kinoshita Tōkjirō.
That’s the person from Giant Robo, right?
I don’t know that, though.
Cool eyes that sparkle.
It’s okay!
Shuriken shushushushushu!
Actually, it’s based on a manga.
I think my dad said he used to watch it when he was a kid…
For now, Mr. Shirokage gets caught.
Really?
I know that the lead actor struggled until the end to break free from the image of this work, as it is too representative of their role.
For some reason, there’s a video at my parents’ house… they were saying something about the bells of Gya-Man.
>>13
For some reason, we had a Famicom game at home.
Of course, I’ve never seen the original work.
Are you referencing the Ijou pattern?
It’s interesting, isn’t it, Akakage?
>>17You’re really putting a lot of effort into entertainment, aren’t you…
So the enemies change quite a bit, huh?
>>18If we’re talking about referencing the composition of Akakage, this is the place, right?
Things like “Arashi” and “Lion Maru” and period drama special effects were a major genre, right?
>>19It doesn’t seem to have developed to the extent of becoming a major genre…
>>27It’s just that it died with the end of the transformation boom, but there are quite a few works like Mitsurugi and Shiroshishi Mask…
>>27It is the culmination of the trick period dramas, such as ninjutsu stories, which developed as a major genre long before that.
Isn’t it everyone’s favorite manga by Yokomitsu-sensei?
Sometimes it’s posted here too.
Kaneko’s old man? Then I wouldn’t be surprised at all.
It’s officially streaming now, right? The Swastika Party arc.
I only know it as the original idea for the ninja with a red beard in the temporary license.
Akakage is ridiculously invincible.
>>26A monster that struggles against strong opponents but won’t lose to ninjas.
When the son of Katsuto Ikegami, who participated in the script for the anime version, asked how Akakage wins, the answer he received was, “Because it’s Akakage.”
My son, thirty years later, posed the question in a special effects production he was part of: “Why can Saru Brother live as a hero!?” and had to answer that he didn’t know, but that’s how it turned out.
>>28I’m glad my son won’t have to spend his later years feeling as lonely as his father did.
>>34…I think the point that should be addressed here is that the one being questioned about why they can be a hero is Saruhara.
>>45That’s right.
It should be decided by Kijino.
Weirdos keep attacking one after another.
It feels like quite a bit of money was spent on things like the big tower set and hot air balloons.
>>33Around this time, Toei’s special effects were spending quite a bit of money.
In the 1970s, it became clear to what extent the budget had decreased.
>>37Akakage, Giant Robo, and Mizuki’s Yokai monsters are taking too much time and budget…
There are some like Tsuburaya who don’t mind at all.
>>37I was wondering if something happened, but it’s been 71 years since President Okada took office…
Aokage is cute.
I saw the surf clam, but does a UFO appear…?
It’s a tokusatsu period drama, but it really leans towards tokusatsu.
I saw it suddenly start wrestling.
It seems that the gold red shadow was uncool.
Akakage shows us everything that a ninja would likely do in a fantasy.
Launching cannons from my arms, firing beams from my sword, and using magic.
The strongest technique is to locate underground water veins and attack with the force of a geyser.
Under Nobunaga’s secret command wishing for Japan’s peace, I will fight against the bizarre individuals of a cult until the middle, but after that, I will start battling the monster army controlled by corrupt daimyos.
>>42Let’s go with Ripple’s strongest technique this way.
>>42It seems that Prioke is likely to gather around here…
>>56Ripple makes an appearance with a loud laugh.
Every time, Zeal gets caught.
A strong meteor while teasing.
I feel like it was rebroadcast not long ago.
It was sometimes streamed on the YouTube period drama channel and sometimes not.
Is it Akakage who shoots missiles from his hands?
>>48Fighting while flying in the sky and shooting missiles from my hands while creating clones.
Is the story of Prioke also from the time when Toyotomi Hideyoshi was still Kinoshita Tōkichirō?
>>40The uncle who gets caught immediately.
I’m currently streaming on YouTube.
I think both manga and special effects are quite famous works, but it seems that many people surprisingly don’t know about Anon.
>>53The people watching Prioke probably don’t know that…
>>53As expected, it’s old…
I recall that Takenaka Hanbei was active.
The Famicom’s Akakage was really fun.
I don’t really understand the circumstances behind Mr. Kaneko making a girls’ anime!
Isn’t robot anime better?!
>>60Mr. Kaneko likes Gundam, but he likes special effects even more.
>>60I think it’s a straightforward idea that since we received the Symphogear, it might work if we try it with Precure too.
>全52話が1967年4月5日 – 1968年3月27日まで関西テレビおよびフジテレビ系列で毎週水曜日19時 – 19時30分に放送された。That’s quite a classic…
>>61It’s one of the works created to coincide with the release of color television.
If we’re talking about Yokoyama ninjas, it’s definitely Iga’s Kagemaru over Akakage for me personally.
>>63I am a dark earth demon.
>>63Ninjutsu is diverse, and hypnosis is good too…
I read it in paperback, but if I were to read it now, I wonder if it would be an ebook.
I think there are probably fewer people watching the live-action movie of Red Shadow.
I want you to be at least as good as Machine Man.
Bringing out some of the atmosphere of Moonlight Mask.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen not only Akakage itself, but also parodies of Akakage.
I watched it about 20 years ago when it was rebroadcast late at night.
I heard that the “daijoubu” pose from Aokage was extremely popular in the generation of parents who are now in their 60s.
I only know about the Famicom.
When I was a kid, they used to rerun shows during the summer and winter breaks.
