Eagle Talon (秘密結社 鷹の爪 Himitsu Kessha Taka no Tsume, lit. Secret Society Eagle Talon) is a Japanese Flash animation created by former Shimane Prefecture resident Ryo Ono (FROGMAN) and produced by DLE. The series turns the classic superhero formula on its head, making the ostensibly “evil” team of villains the protagonists of the story, and the traditional superhero of the series, Deluxe Fighter, a narcissistic and largely incapable bully.
Eagle Talon is a secret society based in Kojimachi, Tokyo. Each episode follows Eagle Talon's attempts (and subsequent failures) to take over the world.
Secret Society Eagle Talon’s popularity in its native Japan is well documented. Originally conceived in 2006 as part of Frogman’s “The Frogman Show” animation block on TV Asahi, the Eagle Talon franchise has expanded into a nationally recognized property, spanning six seasons, one spinoff film, two spinoff series, four feature-length films (with a fifth forthcoming), a number of mobile games hosted on the popular Gree and Mobage platforms, merchandise and more. Additionally, Eagle Talon’s characters have been licensed for promotional campaigns. Japan Rail, Toho Cinemas, Toys ‘R’ Us, Capcom, Sanrio, NTT Docomo, Hulu Japan and a number of other Japanese and International businesses have promoted their products and services with Eagle Talon’s characters.
