RIP Sonny Chiba.

Chiba was one of the original toku heroes too. He was in what most people would know as Invasion of the Neptune Man, and had a starring role in the original Golden Bat movie. And of course he was the second Seven Color Mask, and guest starred in a couple episodes of Robot Detective.

Damn. Rest in peace you legend of a man!!

One of my favorite Japanse actors. I grew up with his movies and seeing this news really hurts me.

He was a great man.
