Apart from this, the show got hyped as an Indian remake of Game of Thrones with Saakshi Tanvar as Daenerys, Anita Hassanandani as Cersei Lannister and Parth Samthaan playing Jon Snow allegedly.

- 48. Q15. • Spider-Man (Japanese) or Supaidaman was a 70's show that was the result of a three-year licensing agreement between Toei and Marvel that allowed both to use each other's properties in any way they wanted. The show revamped the origin story and introduced motorcycle racer Takuya Yamashiro who’s given his powers by dying alien Gariato fight against evil Professor Monster and the Iron Cross Army. Supaidaman is no longer a friendly neighbourhood service provider but instead an Emissary from Hell(???). He also got a giant robot inexplicably called Leopardon to help him fight giant monsters. Toei must have really liked Leopardon as they decided to use that aspect of the show for a later more popular venture. Which series is it or give me its American adaptation?

Jon Snow promoted Chate coaching classes so that he may finally know something and the Mountain was shown to be a Complan Boy. Who was used to advertise Feviquick, whose tagline, 'chutki me chipkaye' might have given much needed solace to the poor chap.
