So in addition to the main plot each week you would also have a bleaker sub-plot related to often a civilian type character that was somehow connected to the main threat. Admittedly, each of the monsters and antagonists were gloriously bonkers but each episode was actually quite layered for what was effectively a weekly show for kids. It was also one of the first team based shows too and in turn created the whole “sentai” (or team) genre that birthed the more modern live action incarnations, which is partly where the likes of comes from.
As it was one of the first shows of its time, it helped to create the “monster-of-the-week” format that has now become such a staple. Over 105 episodes, the team of five bird suited ninjas would have to foil the nefarious plans of this evil group in a variety of goofy, albeit science infused, ways. Released at the start of the 70s, Gatchaman set its science ninja team heroes against a mysterious and shadowy organization known only as. It was a complete collection of arguably one of the greatest and most influential anime series of all time, that of the original. Back at the end of 2013 a rather momentous anime release likely slipped under the collective radar of many people.
