Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This is actually a gritty reimagining of 1975's Tekkaman the Space Knight, transforming a campy hero into a psychological horror protagonist.
The 'Baldboy' nickname came from D-Boy's hair literally burning off during early transformations—a visual metaphor for losing his humanity that fans embraced.
