* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: While Toha Yamaji/Jiraiya was more cheerful with a lighter disposition, learns to be a diligent ninja and fought against human (mostly) opponents, Naoto/Jiban was about a policeman revived into a cyborg that fights an evil organization of monsters, while masquerades his identity pretending to be a bumbling cop. Compared to the mostly acrobatic and fast Jiraiya, Jiban is more bulky, but less agile, which he compensates with a bigger set of weapons and support vehicles. Also, while Jiraiya have a good amount of allies to help him, Jiban is mostly alone against Biolon, save for occasional help, mainly from Mayumi, Halley and Yoko. [[spoiler:Mayumi is his main supporter and, when Jiban is killed by the second time, is she who triggers the headquarter's secret computer to rebuild Jiban into Perfect Jiban.]]
