Daimajin
Daimajin (大魔神, Daimajin; lit. 'Giant Demon God') is a Japanese tokusatsu series centering on an eponymous vengeful deity. It initially consisted of a film trilogy shot simultaneously and released in 1966 with three different directors and predominantly the same crew. The series was produced by Daiei Film and contained similar plot structures involving villages being oppressed by warlords, forcing them beseech Daimajin (the giant demon god) to save them.
While the franchise's expansion is limited, Daimajin became a leading tokusatsu mascot of Daiei after Gamera, and has establish himself as an icon of Japanese popular cultures, being recurringly referenced and parodied.
