1 Attachment(s)
We have sadly been informed of the death of legendary Toei producer Tohru Hirayama. He was 84 years old.
Hirayama was a major influence in the production of early tokusatsu shows, maintaining a direct involvement in Kamen Rider and Goranger, culminating in the creation of Kamen Rider Stronger in 1975. He will be deeply missed. :( |

Hirayama entered Toei in 1954. in 1971, he took the seat of producer on the popular live-action hero program Kamen Rider, and was also the original creator for the television show Kamen Rider Stronger. He produced many of the Kamen Rider TV shows and films during the '70s and '80s. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...ma-passes-away P.S.
