Out of all American superheroes, there is one that many in Japan seem to like best: Spider-Man. But why? In a recent interview, Hideo Kojima explains how Spider-Man is like Japanese heroes, which might explain the character’s appeal to local audiences.
Palworld developer Pocketpair has responded to this morning's dramatic decision by Nintendo to file a patent infringement.
Palworld is better, but Nintendo has$$$$ They can fight it all they want, but will absolutely lose. It is a blatant Pokemon rip off. I do wish them luck though.

I've never really followed the super-sentai genre, but yeah I can see why a culture who likes stories about average people becoming heroes and the impact that has on their lives would like Spiderman. It's kind of odd to think of him standing next to some very strange heroes, like the one who wears girls' panties as his face mask and knocks enemies out using his jock strap (and apparently that has a live action movie).
There's some very strange stuff in that manga I brought back from Japan a few years ago. One day I'll be able to actually read it, but until then it's just a fun conversation starter. Don't get me started on what's in the children's manga.
Let's not forget there was a Marvel authorized Japanese Live action tv show of Spiderman. He had a flying car and was the first live action show which super Sentai would adopt with the transforming giant mech/robot...
