He has a strong sense of justice, and will punish anyone he perceives to be a wrongdoer by transforming into an enormous, wrathful demon god. This demon god, known as a Daikaijin (大怪神, lit. “Great Mystical God”), bears a striking similarity both in name and appearance to the eponymous character of the 1966 tokusatsu film series Daimajin (大魔神, lit. “Great Demon God”).
