About this product

Product Information

Airing in Japan between 1972-1974, the popular and highly influential anime series GATCHAMAN is credited for spearheading worldwide interest in the Japanese style of animation. In America, GATCHAMAN appeared in edited form as the 1970s-era television series BATTLE OF THE PLANETS, the late-'80s G-FORCE, and the updated '90s spinoff OVA, but the series itself was never aired in its original Japanese format. This reissue finally presents the original GATCHAMAN in all its pristine glory: uncut, unedited, newly dubbed, and with 20 episodes never even seen in the U.S. Relive the adventures of Professor Kozaburou Nambu; his Science Ninja Team of Ken, Jo, Jun, Jinpei, and Ryu; and their superweapon aircraft Phoenix as they battle to save the Earth from the world-domination plans of the evil Galactor organization. This collection combines volumes 1-2 for a total of 12 complete episodes.

    entertaining but extremely 2 dimensional. i was curious to see how this compared to the series 'battle of the planets' which i used to watch after school. even as a tot i thought the show was a pale attempt to cash in on the 'star wars' thing. still, i remember that it did have a space opera running theme that other daily cartoons didn't have.i just watched the 1st episode of 'botp' to compare & 'gatchaman' is definitely superior. 'botp' may be even cheesier than i remembered.i never quite understood the fascination w/ japanese anime/manga. all the characters move exactly the same. the drawings are 2nd rate comic book quality. the dialog is generally inane. by the same token i can appreciate all of those 'flaws'. (i've paid admission to see ed wood films on the big screen) so, if you're a fan of anime you should check this out especially if you have a youngster who likes superheroes,godzilla, etc. to watch it with.
