This article is about a series entry (the 12th) in the Metal Hero Series.

For the series' title character, see Janperson.

Tokusou Robo Janperson (特捜ロボ ジャンパーソン Tokusō Robo Janpāson?, Special Investigation Robot Janperson) was the 1993 installment in Toei Company Limited's Metal Hero Series. The series revolved around Janperson, a robotic detective who patrolled the streets of Tokyo and fought against three different underworld organizations who used super technology to subjugate the masses. Unlike most Metal Heroes, a monster-of-the-week was rarely shown and most of the villains are criminals akin to television police dramas. The name given to this series by Toei for international distribution is Jumperson.[1]
