Henshin Ninja Arashi (変身忍者 嵐, roughly translated as “Storm the Transformed Ninja”) is a 1972 JidaigekiToku series created by Shotaro Ishinomori.
“Set in the Edo Period of Japan, the series follows a young ninja named Hayate, who is the son of a man who developed a special technique called the “Transformation Jutsu” capable of granting a superhuman form. However, their Ninja clan, the warmongering Blood Wheel Clan, begins using the Transformation Jutsu to spread fear and terror all throughout Japan as part of their campaign to conquer it.”
