Around 1958 (Showa 33), which masked hero was popular among children at the time?9rank/position

Who was the hero who became a hit around 1958 (Showa 33) and was popular among children at the time? As the progenitor of Japanese hero TV shows, this work had a major influence on later hero programs, so some people might recall it if they trace their memories of heroes.

The hint is a masked hero—someone whose identity is unknown, yet known to everyone.

The answer is Gekko Kamen.

His distinctive look—white turban and mask with black sunglasses—and the way he rode a motorcycle to save people were striking.

Even when facing villains, he wouldn’t inflict excessive harm; he was a hero with a strong conviction.

[Whiteboard Rec] Word Fill-in Brain Training! For Activating Seniors’ Brains!

Whiteboard rec activities are perfect for recreations at large events and functions.

There are various types of whiteboard recs, but here we’ll introduce a word-fill version.

On the whiteboard, draw circles in rows—first 2, then 3, then 2—adjusting the number of circles up or down for each line.

In the circles, from the top row, insert the A-row of Japanese syllables: a, i, u, and so on.

The position where letters are inserted can be anywhere: at the beginning, the end, or elsewhere.

For example, for words that include the syllable “a,” ask seniors to think of a two-letter word that starts with “a” and have them answer.

The more letters there are, the higher the difficulty.
