Episode 13
In contrast to the other contributions of the programme, Keiichi SATO's series (based on characters by Masakazu KATSURA) is an example for the contemporary style of Japanese sci-fi anime. The superhero story, which was broadcast in Japan, USA and UK, follows Wild Tiger and Barnaby Brooks Jr., both supported by powerful sponsors, in their fight against crime. After 25 episodes, the series was also turned into a film in 2012, with a follow-up scheduled for 2013.
