Kikaider, the main character, is a humanoid robot, built by Dr. Komyoji to protect himself and his children from the DARK Android commanded by the evil Professor Gill.

The original Android Kikaider series was one of the first tokusatsu superhero TV shows that added safety bumpers (seen at the end of each episode) which warned children not to imitate the dangerous and impossible stunts performed by the title superhero.
