''Moonlight Mask'' (translated from ''Gekko Kamen'') was Japan's first {{tokusatsu}} SpyFiction CopShow series from 1958[[note]]''Supergiant'' (redubbed as ''Starman'') is actually the first toku show. Though ''Moonlight Mask'' has the first ''masked'' toku hero.[[/note]]. It was very popular with kids, but was cancelled due to a kid dying trying to imitate the titular character's stunts. It was later adapted into an anime in the 70s and again in the 90s.
