Norton Fighter – Japanese Superhero Fights Viruses, Wears Yellow Spandex
The character ‘Norton Fighter‘, is the face of Symantec‘s Japanese ad campaign for its Norton 360 program suite.
The creators of Norton Fighter have obviously modeled the character on famous Tokusatsu characters like Kamen Rider and Ultraman. This superhero fights viruses and creepy bots, rescues cute maids in distress, and generally saves the day. Somehow, the Japanese always seem to make stuff more cooler than they really are.
Watch Norton Fighter take on the evil Botlas in this two part video.
