Gatchaman – Vol. 4: Speed Racers & Neon Giants (DVD)

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 inspired two animated television series (the 1970s-era BATTLE OF THE PLANETS and the late-`80s G-FORCE) as a well an updated 1990s 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 fourth volume continues the series with three more episodes.
