Fuun Lion-Maru (風雲ライオン丸, Fūun Raionmaru, lit. Storm Cloud Lion Maru), known as Lion-Man outside Japan, was a tokusatsu television series that aired on the Fuji Television Network in Japan in 1973. Produced by P Productions — the studio behind its previous tokusatsu series including Magma Taishi, Spectreman and Kaiketsu Lion-Maru, it was the second series in the Lion-Maru trilogy, and featured a third Maru-like character named Black Jaguar. It also reunites only two actors: Tetsuya Ushio as Shishimaru (Lion Maru) and Yoshitaka Fukushima as Jonosuke (Tiger Joe), since Akiko Kujo and Norihiko Umechi were not featured in the sequel series, who is replace by Ryoko Miyano and Tsunehiro Arai. This Lion-Maru is deemed "the Rolling Tempest Ninja Warrior."
