This is honestly something I could consider rewatching multiple times. I honestly think that this show is actually pretty solid, I really liked it.

YEAH YEAH YEAH WOW!
YEAH YEAH YEAH WOW!

In the dark valleys between buildings (SPIDER-MAN!)
In his eyes, a quiet but burning rage (SPIDER-MAN!)
Leaves behind his peace as he abandons his love
And races through the sky chasing down evil

Why must you go on? Why must you go on?
Fighting on and risking your life for those less fortunate?
Slowly but surely, slowly but surely
A man that is unstoppable SPIDER-MAN!

Sneaking through the silent hall of the night (SPIDER-MAN!)
In his eyes, a quiet but burning rage (SPIDER-MAN!)
In his pain, a burden, he must abandon his love
And races through the sky seeking out evil

Why must you go on? Why must you go on?
Fighting on and risking your life for those less fortunate?
Slowly but surely, slowly but surely
A man that is unstoppable SPIDER-MAN!

In a street corning that nobody knows (SPIDER-MAN!)
In his eyes, a quiet but burning rage (SPIDER-MAN!)
Through the sadness, endures, and leaves his friendship behind
And races through the sky searching for evil

Why must you go on? Why must you go on?
Fighting on and risking your life for those less fortunate?
Slowly but surely, slowly but surely
A man that is unstoppable SPIDER-MAN!
SPIDER-MAN!

Let’s do this one last time.

My name is Takuya Yamashiro, and for 45 years, I’ve been the one true Spider-Man!

I was a young motorcycle stuntman and photographer but when my father was killed by the ruthless Professor Monster, an alien named Garia imbued me with the power of Planet Spider.

It came with a slick bracelet, this colorful costume, a car, a robot, sometimes an assault rifle, and a sweltering ache for just revenge against the Iron Cross Army.

The role has come with many titles;
The man who will prevent a major blackout in Tokyo!
A man moved by a mother’s love!
The man with a fondness for animals!
Destroyer of the mushroom!

but most people know me by one.
An emissary of hell, Spider-Man!

But through all the shenanigans and the hard times, being Spider-Man is my greatest achievement and I wouldn’t change it for the world.
Marveller! Change, Leopardon!!
