Giant Robo (ジャイアントロボ, Jaianto Robo?) is a manga by Mitsuteru Yokoyama, in which the huge robot of the same name as a title appears. Tokusatsu, Anime, etc. based on this manga were produced.
Since Toei requested a plot for Tokusatsu TV series from Yokoyama, he wrote this manga. Yokoyama made the setting "Giant Robo follows only a hero" for differentiation with his Tetsujin 28 which everyone can control.

Famous quotes containing the word giant:
“Of a truth, Knowledge is power, but it is a power reined by scruple, having a conscience of what must be and what may be; whereas Ignorance is a blind giant who, let him but wax unbound, would make it a sport to seize the pillars that hold up the long- wrought fabric of human good, and turn all the places of joy as dark as a buried Babylon.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
