Kyojuu Tokusou Juspion

Kyojuu Tokusou Juspion (巨獣特捜ジャスピオン) is a Japanese tokusatsu television series and part of the Metal Hero Series. Produced by Toei Company, it was originally broadcast from 3 March, 1985 to 24 March, 1986, running for 46 episodes. The name "Juspion" is a portmanteau of "Jus tice" and "Champion ". Juspion is the only Metal Hero series to focus on giant robot combat. Kyoujuu Tokusou Juspion was aired in Brazil through the now-defunct TV Manchete, becoming extremely popular in that country under the remodeled name "Jaspion". The character was so insanely popular that he even gained his own comic book series and it's still considered one of the greatest japanese super heroes by many Brazilian fans. It was also aired in Indonesia and in France, where only a few episodes of the show were dubbed and transmitted. And it was the first series to air on Mondays instead of Fridays.

For distribution purposes, Toei refers to this television series as Juspion.

Video Release
The official Toei video releases in the '80s listed in English, below the title, "Space Wolf Juspion" (named after the ending theme for instance). This has created some confusion and has led some to believe that is the actual title of the series and translation of "Kyojuu Tokusou." The Space Wolf name is simply one of Juspion's nicknames much like the "Galactic Tarzan" in order for him to have a title to introduce himself by.
