Judo Boy (紅三四郎, Kurenai Sanshirō, "Scarlet Sanshiro") is a Japanese
Fuji TV from April 2, 1969, to September 24, 1969, totaling 26 episodes.[1][2] Two manga adaptations were created, the first published in Shogakukan's Weekly Shōnen Sunday from July 28 to November 17, 1968,[3] and a 4-chapters series in Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump from May 22 to July 10, 1969.[4]
The series stars a teenage martial artist named Sanshiro (voiced by
glass eye
left on the scene of the crime, suggesting that his father's murderer was one-eyed. Thus many of the villains Sanshiro fought during the course of the series were one-eyed or had one eye concealed with an eye-patch.
The opening theme was performed by Mitsuko Horie (her first) when she was just 12 years old.
