Gatchaman!
 

A thread to honor the ancestor of modern Super Sentai- "Science Ninja Team Gatchaman!"

Also known as Battle of the Planets, G-Force or possibly Eagle Riders depending on when and where you saw it.

Anyone else a fan?

For sure, but I'd move this to "anime discussion" thread since it isn't considered Tokusatsu.

Love me some Gatchaman!

I was really disappointed that Studio Imagi broke up because Gatchaman was their next film :(

Man, it would be AWESOME if Tamashii made SH Figuarts Gatchaman toys!

i need new pants from just thinking of the possibility of that

Gatchaman has always been something Ive been meaning to get into. I had a blast playing as the characters on Tatsunoko vs Capcom, but I've never actually watched any of it :(

Yeah, even I was looking forward to that.

Aside from the NTT Docomo ads with SMAP from years ago, I say it's about time we get a Gatchaman live adaptation Miike Takashi style.

I loved the toon as a kid but haven't thought about it in years.

I never saw the toon but I read the Battle of the Planets comics that came out in the early 2000's, I dug them quite a bit and thought the designs were really friggin cool.

So how do I educate myself more on them? Is there something I need to download and watch?

That would be awesome, and would work really well.

Watch the OVA, that was pretty awesome, the classic stuff can get a little dated, very G1 style stuff. I love the God Phoenix through out the different rendition of Gatchaman

SIC Gatchaman!

Saw and liked the first OVA,liked the few eps of the original I saw on Youtube,like them in TvsC.

With the new movie coming, maybe it's time to revive this old thread :lol Anyone know if the series is on Youtube?

I for one, have always been fascinated by Gatchaman, but could never figure out where to start with. The movie is definitely a good start, but can anybody suggest something that's already out there?
