Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Spider-Man (スパイダーマン or Supaidāman) is the infamous Japanese version of Spider-Man. This was the result of a short-lived licensing agreement between Marvel Comics and Toei, which also resulted in the anime version of The Tomb of Dracula and three subsequent Sentai entries — Battle Fever J, Denshi Sentai Denziman and Taiyou Sentai Sun Vulcan.In this version, Spider-Man is Takuya Yamashiro, a young Japanese motorcycle racer who's given blood by a 400-year-old Human Alien from the planet Spider, letting him turn into Spider-Man in order to defeat the Iron Cross Army in order to avenge his father. He has the basic costume and powers of the Western version (though he tends to shout attack names to use webs, and the webs and costume come from a bracelet) but little else is similar.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })The show was produced in 1978–79, between the second (J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai) and third (Battle Fever J) Super Sentai shows and has many similarities to that franchise: Spider-Man has a car called the Spider-Machine GP-7 and a Humongous Mecha named Leopardon (presumably designed for another main character that never came to be), and the series follows the familiar formula of a single organization sending out a Monster of the Week which gets defeated, then grows to giant size, and is defeated by the hero in the robot. In fact, it introduced this concept to Super Sentai — the first two shows (Himitsu Sentai Goranger and J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai) didn't have giant robots.The series is not related in any way to the earlier Spider-Man manga by Ryoichi Ikegami, although it did have a few manga adaptations that were published in different children's magazines. Incidentally, Spider-Man's giant robot Leopardon did make it to the United States as part of the Godaikin toy line.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })Stan Lee likes it and Marvel clearly doesn't consider it an Old Shame. In fact, this incarnation returned in the huge crossover Spider-Verse. He — and Leopardon — finally made their comic appearance in Amazing Spider-Man vol.3 #12, which is widely considered both a Crowning Moment of Funny, Crowning Moment of Awesome, and one of the highlights of Spider-Verse in general.

In the Name of the Moon: Spider-Man often introduces himself to enemies with such phrases. Early on, he'd consistently describe himself as "An emissary from hell" or as the "Iron Cross Killer" before announcing his name, but later on he changes it from episode to episode to better suit the plot.

Noodle Incident: 400 years prior to the events of the first episode, Garia (who injected Takuya his Spider extract in the first episode) pursued the Iron Cross Army in search of vengeance after they destroyed his homeworld, but crash-landed into the Earth and was imprisoned in an underground cave for centuries. This is one of the reasons to motivate Takuya's vengeance against Iron Cross Army.

Bittersweet Ending: Quite a few episodes end with someone dying under tragic circumstances because of the Iron Cross Army in spite of Spider-Man's heroics and Takuya resolving to continue fighting the Iron Cross Army so that they'll get what they deserve for the lives they've ruined or taken. One example is the 21st episode, where an Interpol agent separated from his son succumbs to mortal injuries the Iron Cross Army inflicted on him before he can live to reunite with his son.

Gameplay and Story Segregation
 Spider-Man (Japan) / int_6320eced
comment
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Episode 21 comes about as close to this as is possible in something that isn't a game, because Spider-Man's ability to summon his spaceship/robot is only there for the obligatory robot scene and is not otherwise treated like something he can actually do. In this episode, Spider-Man needs to get a dying man to the airport to see his son; hitchhiking on trains while being attacked by bad guys on foot? Yes. Flying in Marveller, where he doesn't even need to transform into robot form and can easily bypass the bad guys? No.

Retool: Somewhat less than halfway through the run, the show abruptly started focusing on Spider-Man helping kids. This was actually a sign of the times, as around 1979-84 tokusatsu began getting Lighter and Softer (because of pressure from Moral Guardians) moving away from the more violent and brutal early-1970s series such as Kamen Rider Amazon and Choujin Barom 1. It can even be seen in the Tsuburaya series Ultraman 80.

Expy: In Episode 17, when Samson the wrestler turns into a Machine BEM, he resembles The Thing. Saeko Yoshida, Amazoness' civilian identity, is a gender flipped version of J. Jonah Jameson. Professor Monster is also loosely based on Doctor Doom.
