Inazuman (イナズマン) was a Tokusatsu television series starring a mutant fictional character of the same name created by Shotaro Ishinomori.As Goro Watari and his friend Gosaku Marume are walking home from college classes one evening, they discover two children being attacked by evil mutants. After saving the kids, Watari discovers that the kids are part of the Youth League and were attacked by soldiers from the Neo-Human Empire. After being taken in by the Youth League, it is discovered Goro is a very powerful mutant and, after having his powers awakened by the Youth League, Goro becomes able to transform into Sanagiman. Not only that, when "Sanagiman matures, his belt reaches maximum and he becomes Inazuman!"With his new powers, which include the ability to teleport, turn his scarf into a giant chain, and the "Supreme Lightning Strike that finishes off his opponents, Inazuman battles Emperor Bamba, the head of the Neo-Human Empire, and his hoard of monsters.The first television series ran from October 2, 1973 to March 26, 1974 with a total of 25 episodes, concluding with a two-part finale that led into the beginning of the sequel series, Inazuman Flash (イナズマンフラッシュ, Inazuman Furasshu), which aired in 1974 from April 9 to September 24 with a total of 23 episodes.A manga adaptation by Shotaro Ishinomori was also serialized from 1973 to 1974.Inazuman would later receive a tribute in the Kamen Rider Movie War film Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Wizard & Fourze: Movie War Ultimatum, which features a rebooted origin for Inazuman.

Retool
 Inazuman / int_b2283870
comment
Retool: Went through one midway through in an effort to pull in more viewers. Notable changes included the Youth League being phased out a third of the way through and a more serious storyline developing where Goro became more personally invested in his fight against the Neo-Humans. The final third also saw some changes being made to the shows format, including more emphasis being placed on the Monster of the Week and the last few episodes laying the groundwork for Inazuman Flash.

Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: There are several times where the Neo-Humans have an opportunity to finish Goro off, but don't. Episodes 16 and 21 see Goro getting incapacitated due to poison, but the Neo-Humans choosing to wait for him to die from it instead of doing anything to speed up the process.
