Kinnosuke Nakamura as Ogami Ittō, and Katzutaka Nishikawa as his son, Daigoro, in the first Lone Wolf and Cub television series (1973-1976). Nishikawa-kun played Daigoro for the first two seasons of the show and presumably aged out of the role; he was replaced by Takumi Satô for the third and final season.
This series was produced by a Kazuo Koike's production company. Koike-san, the author of the original manga the series was based on, wanted to emphasize the relationship between father and son. Because of time and story constraints, the six feature films (1972-1974) starring Tomasiburo Wakayama had only been able to briefly touch upon this aspect of the story.
Tonight’s a special night. Tonight is Sting’s last match (supposedly because you can never say “never” in pro wrestling). In honor of the momentous occasion, I decided to finally do the Lone Wolf and Cub inspired idea I’ve had in my brain for the longest ever since he and Darby Allin started teaming together. Done in Procreate.
