Japanese Anime: Tiger Mask (Japanese Wresting Anime)

I didn't know that "Tiger Mask" was Manga series.  In my memory Tiger Mask was just anime series in early 70s. 



Tiger Mask(タイガーマスク）

It was pretty popular TV series in Japan in 70s.  Later, real processional wrestler was wrestling wearing Tiger Mask in the ring in 80s.

Story:
Tiger Mask (タイガーマスク, Taigā Masuku^?) is a Japanese manga series written by Ikki Kajiwara and illustrated by Naoki Tsuji. The series was first published in Kodansha's Bokura Magazine from 1968 to 1971 and was later published in Weekly Shōnen Magazine from 1970 to 1971. It was later adapted into an anime series by Toei Animation which first aired on Yomiuri TV on October 2, 1969 and ended its run on September 30, 1971, airing 105 episodes. In real life, the name has been used by a succession of Japanese professional wrestling characters as a gimmick. The Tiger Mask persona is instantly recognizable by its trademark mask, designed to look like a tiger's head, as well as the combination of high flying attacks and martial arts in the ring.
