レッドマン
A 1972 [[tokusatsu]] series, very similar to [i][[Ultraman]][/i] where the [[redman (character)|titular character]] grows in size to fight monsters. Created by [[Tsuburaya Productions]], it aired as a 5-minute segment of the variety show [i]Ohayou! Kodomo Show[/i], with 138 episodes in total.

The show was considered a cult classic among some tokusatsu fans for the appallingly low budget production, monster costumes recycled from Tsuburaya's previous low budget short series [[Ultra Fight]] and non-existent plot for every episode. Other than its titular character being recognized as a proposed design for the original [i]Ultraman[/i] TV series, the Redman character is also known by fans as a "serial killer" due to the nature of the show, which involves the hero beating up and killing the monster for no reason, sometimes in gruesome fashion.
