allkpop



On January 21, it was announced that manga artist Yokoyama Mitsuteru�s giant robot manga �Tetsujin 28-go� will be remade by Fuji TV and Eiken as an anime titled �Testujin 28- Gao!�to celebrate the 50th anniversary since it was first made into an anime.

The manga was original serialized in 1956 in Kobunsha�s�Shonen� magazine and it has been remade numerous times.� It follows child detective Kaneda Shotaro as he battles his enemies over a giant robot that can be both good and evil depending on how you use the remote�control.� It focused on the intense battles that Shotaro and his giant robot comrade fought together in and gave hope to children growing up in the post-WWII era.

The remake will focus on the daily life of elementary school student Shotaro instead of the battles between robots.� It will take the story of an ordinary elementary school student 'Shotaro' and his robot friend defeating enemy robots through the pop style anime. �Fuji TV producer Hara Daisuke spoke with anticipation as he said, �At the time it was broadcast, many children were fanatics of �Tetsujin-28 go�. In order for people who have not seen the anime before to enjoy it, we will use the pop style and a new image in the remake. It will be broadcast in the early morning, but I hope the whole family will enjoy it.�

�Tetsujin-28 Gao!� will be broadcast on Fuji TV starting on April 6; it will run every Saturday from 4:52 AM to 5 AM (except in certain regions.)
