Some years ago, I posted that Emperor Hirohito (now referred to as Emperor Showa) was a big fan of the Adventures of Superman starring George Reeves. The Emperor was such a fan of Adventures of Superman that he sent actor George Reeves a fan letter in 1958.
The above video is the Japanese version of the opening of the show.
According to The Vintage News:
The Adventures of Superman was such a smash hit with audiences that it transcended territorial boundaries. The series became a hit in Japan, with the program being dubbed over. It’s no surprise, then, that Emperor Hirohito, the 124th Emperor of Japan, was a big fan of the series.
Why does the theme sound like the version that was included in the Superman:The Ultimate Collection cd released in 1999?
