Episode 14:Defeat ”King Zaiger.”

 Mirrorman's episodes are inflenced by the descripton of JIdaigeki (Japanese traditional movies or Samurai movies.) Daiei Co.,ltd created many Jidaigeki

movies at that time. When anyone talks about JIdaigeki,surely they say

"Zatou Ichi" , "Kogarashi Monjiro", "Nemuri Kyoshiro" and so on. In fact,in 1970s ,there were many TV Jidaigeki televised . This episode No.14 includes some taste of JIdaigeki. Looking at Mirrorman's movement when battling,he always kept proper distance between him and the monstor.Besides that ,when Mirrorman lost sight with the venom of King Zaiger,we can see Mirrrorman moves alike Zatouichi. Such taste we enjoy in Mirrorman. 

 

ミラーマンの物語は時代劇の描写の影響を受けている。当時大映は多くの時代劇を生み出していた。誰もが時代劇を語るに座頭市 木枯し紋次郎 眠狂四郎などを口にする。1970年代には多くのTV時代劇が放映された。ミラーマンの14話は時代劇の味わいを持っている。戦闘シーンのミラーマンの動きをみるとミラーマンと怪獣に常に間合いをとっている。その上ミラーマンがキングザイガーの毒液で視力を失うとミラーマンは座頭市のような動きになる。このような味わいをミラーマンで見ることができるのだ。
