Naoto Date of the orphanage “Chibikko House” was scouted by the villainous wrestler training organization “Tiger's Den” after getting into a fight in front of the tiger cage at the zoo as a child and beating his opponent senseless. During his days enduring the brutal training at Tiger's Den, he developed a desire to spare orphans with similar backgrounds from suffering the same hardships he endured, leading him to graduate from Tiger's Den. After debuting as the masked heel wrestler “Tiger Mask,” he began donating a portion of his earnings to the orphanage. Initially, he planned to donate only from his take-home pay after paying half his fight money as tribute to Tiger's Den. However, upon learning of the dire straits of his own orphanage, “Chibikko House,” he felt compelled to donate even the portion meant for Tiger's Den. Tiger's Den deemed Tiger a traitor and sent assassins one after another to defeat him.
