Lion-Maru G is a Japanese tokusatsu series that aired from October 1, 2006 to November 24, 2006 in Japan, lasting 13 episodes. It is the third part in the Lion-Maru trilogy, following Kaiketsu Lion-Maru and Fuun Lion-Maru. The "G" is short for 'Ghetto'. This Lion-Maru is called "the Beast Transformed Gigolo Warrior".

Rumors spread about Haru, the feared brawler, as challengers line up to test him. One day, rival school Aokou is wiped out overnight. The culprit: Red Tengu, the strongest biker gang around. Soon after, Red Tengu’s charismatic leader Tesshin personally appears at Kiwakō. “Tomorrow. At the riverbank.” School pride, team loyalty, and manhood collide in a brutal showdown that stains the blue sky red.

After fighting every single day, Haru and Shingo have grown absurdly strong. Yet stronger enemies keep coming—this time from Byakuya Academy, whose elite unit “Brother Scorpion” launches a full-scale assault. Overwhelmed by numbers, Kiwakō faces its greatest crisis. Momo entrusts everything to Haru, marking a generational shift as the ultimate school war begins. In the chaos of battle, Haru is forced to discover what strength truly means.

Adapted from a manga of the same name.

Expecting another enemy, Haru is instead approached by Sho, a bespectacled honor student from an elite prep school. Sho, partnered with the ruthless Kenshin, is running an underground fight ring called “Fight Club” and tries to recruit Haru. Haru refuses to turn fighting into business—but the Fight Club targets his friends to force his hand. The club leader is beaten senseless, Shingo is sent to intensive care, and the ring ignites with delinquent pride on the line.

As graduation approaches, Tatsuya—the right-hand man of Kiwakou’s strongest fighter Momo—leaves school. Spring draws near, but Haru and the first-years live only for today’s fights. Their next opponent: Gakki, the strongest fighter from Rangaku High and Momo’s lifelong rival. A long-standing ceasefire shatters as the two schools clash head-on in a 4-on-4 one-on-one battle, pride against pride.
