literally my favorite ever made. i loved it for the cartoony fight scenes when i was 14, and now that i'm 20 i can appreciate the fantastic animation direction and character development even more. peaking early, aren't we?
The intro and outro really gives out this amazing retro vibe of anime in the past. Something I really respect and sort of view it as a style of sorts. The songs themselves are pretty awesome. I personally like the intro more.
God damn, this song is CATCHY! :-) Yeah, I grew up with "Battle Of The Planets," but without this theme song, it just doesn't hold up to the original edits.
Although I got the Americanized Turner version of this show as "Battle of the Planets" as a kid in the early 80s it cemented my appreciation of anime/manga.
@@TheFaustianAlchemist Battle of the Planet was 1978. I should know -- I saw it back then. Very popular show for its time; it was syndicated and shown by local, mostly non-affiliated stations, not the national networks. It was shown around the world in different languages until about 1987 and disappeared. After 1986, the second dubbed version with a different cast, G-Force was all you saw in the US through the mid-1990s at least. More people saw the G-Force adaptation on Cartoon Network. It was aired on the TBS Channel in 1986 but I don't think they showed all the episodes and it dropped off the schedule. Cartoon Network was originally owned by Turner Broadcasting and someone remembered they had the rights to this series which is why it aired on CN. CN and TBS were later sold to Warner Bros. Battle of the Planets was the more popular adaptation -- a lot more people have seen it internationally. It was also brought back into streaming by Sentai Films a few years back. Couldn't tell you who streamed it -- Sentai's service, Hulu, or Amazon. It might be on RetroCrush or AsianCrush by now. Neither Battle of the Planets or G-Force received full series release on DVD in the US even at the height of DVD's popularity in the early 2000s. They only received collections with select episodes of both dubs alongside the original Japanese episodes. They did about 3-5 individual DVDs and a boxed collection of what was released Stateside. Only in the UK was the entire Battle of the Planets series released on home media (DVD) and that was a limited run. Most of the torrents and episodes posted online are from the UK home video release. The G-Force dub never had a full series release on home media.
Turner didn't Americanize it. Sandy Frank Productions was the company that did the first two English dubs of Science Ninja Team Gatchaman. Battle of the Planets aired about 6 years after the Japanese premiere which was in 1972. The show ran for 2 years in Japan (1972-1974) because it was very popular. They made 105 episodes of Gatchaman. The production company in Japan tried to sell it internationally as early as 1975 but it wasn't until Star Wars arrived in 1977 that it got real traction. TBS commissioned the second English adaptation (G-Force) but Sandy Frank still handled the actual dubbing with another group of voice actors, 2 of whom had worked with Harmony Gold on the Robotech series. Sandy Frank was famous (or infamous depending on your POV) for localizing live-action science fiction shows from Japan. SFP signed a long-term license (3-decades I believe) with Tatsunoko Productions (creators of Gatchaman) for the Gatchaman footage. Even after ADV Films got the license to Gatchaman to dub it faithfully with yet another group of voice actors in the early 2000s, they had to deal with SFP since their agreement with Tatsunoko was still in effect. Sandy Frank's license to the Gatchaman footage lapsed after 2007. Battle of the Planets was streamed years later under the license agreement Sentai Films made with Tatsunoko Productions. Tatsunoko controls the distribution of the Gatchaman English dubs by SFP and ADV Films/Sentai. Sentai Films has the rights to Gatchaman, and they later optioned the Gatchaman compilation (which they also dubbed), the 1994 Gatchaman OVA remake, and the sequel series (Gatchman 2, Gatchaman F) and the alternate reality Gatchaman Crowds series after ADV reformed as Sentai Films. They never dubbed Gatchaman 2 and F because those series were just not as popular; they never believed the sales would justify and cover the cost of English dubs -- and frankly G-2 and G-F aren't very good shows. Every Gatchaman series was released on DVD by Sentai Films. Only Gatchaman 2 and F weren't remastered for hi-def release on Blu ray. I don't believe G-2 and G-F have been released on Blu ray in Japan, either. ADV's dub of Gatchaman is far more faithful than the first two dubs and cast better as well. Some of the voices for the first two dubs were miscast; frankly Kasey Kasem sounded too old to be playing Mark (G-1's name in BoTP)! They had great voice actors in the first two dub attempts (Alan Young, Kasey Kasem, Keye Luke, Janet Waldo, Cam Clarke, Barbara Goodson) but they were hampered by bad editing and script changes that were forced on those adaptations by broadcast standards & practices which have evolved and loosened up and then tightened up again in recent years. Since ADV released directly to video and later hosted the Gatchaman series on the Anime Channel they didn't have to deal with the BS&P BS and could do a more faithful adaptation. It really was one of their better dubs. The successor company to ADV, Sentai Films, picked up options to the later Gatchaman releases of the 2000s and relicensed the original series, the 1994 OVAs, and sequel TV series as well.
I saw this show as a little kid and never knew the name of it. After so many years and I think a commercial that showed Ken made my rediscovery possible. Great show and a banger of a song.
And btw Goranger looked like this in the manga. pbs.twimg.com/media/DQPO6nvUEAA6S5N.jpg Midori was a kid and Ki was chubbie. So basically a mixture of Gatchaman and Cyborg 009 in lay-out. Ishinomori and Tsuburaya where taking ideas from eachother back and forth and any one who calls that stealing is dumb because its ends up making Toku and Anime more awesome. Power rangers would be nothing without Spider-man and Golion, Golion and Combattler V would be nothing with Gatchaman and Goranger, Gatchaman and Goranger would not exist without Kamen Rider and Ultraman and those go back to Moonlight Mask and Ogon Bat. Keep mixing stuff up and inovating. Its how the henshin era started lol
Notice how Jun is prominently featured in the closing sequence (and note her place in the line-up). She was originally meant to be G2 but got demoted to G3 at the last minute.
I believe because there was still this kind of stereotype that a woman couldn't be a leader or even 2nd-in-command. This show was in 70s right? Also, the brotherly friendship between Ken and Joe that makes it more sense. Jun is a new comer while Ken and Joe grew up together. The connection between two can't be denied.
I watched Battle Of The Planets as a kid in the late 70s/early 80s and loved every episode. They were RAW. Especially the Jagokillers (people-eating flowers) episodes which kicked the shit out of me as a kid. If they make a remake movie I hope its worthy of the original!
Bless my father for raising me and playing this.. I was born in 1998 but shoot this is straight up one of the biggest parts of my childhood. I cant wait to one day watch this with my own kids and have them relive the nostalgia of watching a show way before their time. Gatchaman always !
Yeah, that was just what entertaining music in general sounded like: a band, if not an orchestra. By the late 1970s, the influence of disco and funk was definitely established, with electric guitar and bass, and analog electronic warbling has meant "space stuff" for a long time, but most of the 20th century was pretty acoustic.
@Chewy Gomez That's why I would have it on the outro. The outro is more intense like the mission is just starting. The intro is more relaxed like the mission is over.
@pikabko1 For the first 23 episodes (or so) "Destroy Gallactor" was, in fact, used as the opening theme and "Gatchaman no Uta" was used as the closing theme. They switched the theme songs around and revamped the opening animation into the more customary version around the episode with the Giant Bowling Ball Mecha.
It was much better after they made the change! That's how they (Tatsunoko) wanted the series to be originally presented. One of their sponsors forced the animation studio to use the songs in the order they were presented for nearly the first-quarter of the series.
I was 11 years old when BOTP premiered in the U.S. & now that I'm 23 episodes into its' original Gatchaman series, I suddenly feel as though a part of my childhood had been PLAYED. So nice to hear Jinpei/Keyop speak like a normal kid without that stupid stutter we American kids had to endure, then there's the chance to see Joe/Jason for the real badass that he is. As for Ken/Mark...well, it's especially nice to hear him speak without thinking about Casey Kasem's American Top 40 Countdown.
thanks sooo much for posting this i love the dadada dada dadada bit awesome memories of the rubbish battle of the planets version i watched as a kid i need the boxset NOW!!!!
The funny thing is, even tho we don't know what they're saying in the intro, the musical score from the opening song was used throughout the cartoon...even in the American version. The used the same music without the lyrics.
The meaning of the lyrics in the intro : Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh! A roaring Engine! The Science Ninja! Destroy Galactor! The demons of the Earth! With the weapons and tornado fighter Flying to the Sun Protecting the Earth Science Ninja Team Gatchaman, Gatchaman! Flying to the sun Protecting the Earth Science Ninja Team Gatchaman, Gatchaman!
One of the first anime series aired on IBC 13 back in the late 70s alongside Getter Robo. It was re-aired on HERO TV in 2008. Also, ABC 5 aired it's second American adaptation to Gatchaman, G-Force in the 90s. :)
I watched this on Hero TV in Philippines back in mid to late 2000s, and I watched the live action version on this series (2013) superb for tatsunoko productions Science Ninja Team Gatchaman, huge fan of Ken the Eagle, and Jun the Swan
Un grand merci pour cette vidéo! Malheureusement, en France, nous n'avons pu voir qu'une version censurée. Les scènes violentes ayant été remplacées par les intervention mal animées du robot 7 Zark7 (et son chien-robot, 1 Nonos 1... Sic!) Mais je suis frappé de voir que la version japonaise était en fait un dessin animé de super-héros!!!
I saw it back then on Kinderbios. There are one or two Dutch episodes on UA-cam. What i liked about the Dutch version was that there was more a threat of Jason wanting to take over leadership from Mark.
WELL Those melodies WERE in the familiar Battle of the Planets show Also in here prime actress Janet Waldo LOOKED like Jun/Princess Check out a I Love Lucy ep where she has a crush on Ricky
No había escuchado la versión japonesa nunca, también es muy buena , todavía me acuerdo de toda la canción en español, nostalgia de esas tardes viendo dibujos y jugando a ser del "Comando G "como se llamaba aquí "Gatchaman"
50 years later and the animation still looks amazing.
Seriously 50 years. Hard to believe.
This is what u call an anime, This is an excellent show
Gatchaman is better than one piece.
Almost every morning before school.
@@legendaryTMNICO❤❤😂😢😢😂😊

This gave me an incredibly powerful nostalgia for my childhood, and that’s always a great thing.
個人的にはこちらの方が圧倒的に好きですね。間奏部分のメカ紹介や純のバイク操縦技術表現は当時のアニメ史に残る素晴らしい動画だと思います。G4号の場面では動物や自然を尊重する思いも盛り込まれてますね。
ジュンの宙返りが見られるだけで価値がとても高い動画。
Gatchaman Science Ninja Team was my first exposure to anime! The intro makes me feel nostalgic every time! It even brings a tear in my eye. 🥲👊🏾
Me too.
@@Girthon1 Especially at 1:03🥺🥺🥲
me too man. i remember back at the day I used to sing along side with this opening even though I have zero knowledge about Japanese 😆
Happy 50th anniversary to Gatchaman!
literally my favorite ever made. i loved it for the cartoony fight scenes when i was 14, and now that i'm 20 i can appreciate the fantastic animation direction and character development even more. peaking early, aren't we?
this aired back in 1974...i found out about this from the sequel...

at least you are not hating on original
There's nothing retro about it. It's almost 50 years old. That was an anthemic sound back then!

Incredible!! This cartoon was made in 1972. Very very good quality!
Whan an absolute visionary masterpiece of a show, and the intro drives me to tears of joy. Long live to the beauty of imagination.
手書きなのにとてもクオリティーが高い!回り込んだり、床に綺麗に反射してたり、これぞアニメーション👍
当時のアニメーター達は、ガッチャマンのような作品を作りたくてタツノコに行きましたが、吉田竜夫の出す要求の厳しさに、「この作品は作るものじゃなくて見るものです」といって逃げ出しました。
残った人たちはディズニーをガチ嫉妬させるレベルの仕事をしましたけどね。

loved this show man grew up watching it 🥲
This is like being rewarded for being a fan. Thank you so much!
BOTP in Canada in the '70s and early '80s. I'll spare the 'Sandy Frank song', and extend my thanks to you for posting the original.
I saw this show as a little kid and never knew the name of it. After so many years and I think a commercial that showed Ken made my rediscovery possible. Great show and a banger of a song.
The art direction of this show is waaay ahead of its time, im still amazed it came out 5 years before Star Wars....
"Chikyuu wa hitotsu, chikyuu wa hitotsu": "There is only one Earth; there is only one Earth..." words to live by, people. 😎
Then what does "Tobei!" or "Ukei' mean?
Tobe! means Fly!
Ukei!(yuke) means Go!
crazyman8472 chikyuu wa hitotsu means hearth is one, united
crazyman8472 yup right up there with “tobe tobe tobe gatchaman, yuke yuke yuke gatchaman!”
I've seen it alternatively translated as "The Earth is alone", which means something else entirely.
the original sentai team
Actually ua-cam.com/video/ge6UETt-ZEo/v-deo.html and its even more Sentai because Ishinomori created this too.
Who also created the Five Rangers (a.k.a. Star Rangers here in the Philippines).

Old animation songs used strings and horns as a matter of course. Looking back, it was very extravagant.

I remember playing this at school with my friends. I was always Jason (Joe in Japan).
I find it hard to believe that I am as old as this show
The outro is awesome, though. Much better than the intro. The outro should have been the intro.
They did switch the outro music for the intro music about halfway through the series.
Shut up,chewy
They're both amazing!

same here :) My dad showed them to me on DVD when I was like a kid and I still love the series now that I'm 17

I seem to recall the outro song is actually this show's intro song when it aired in Taiwan
Aaaahhh nostalgia. I don’t remember anything about this (except the theme songs) because I was 5 when my dad showed it to me
I used to watch this and I was born in 1991

I LOVE both the intro and the outro of this cartoon.
It's kind of amazing how closely the Battle of the Planets theme adapts the original opening. I've always assumed that it was completely different.
Great!!!
One of my favorite anime in my childhood
The funny thing is, even tho we don't know what they're saying in the intro, the musical score from the opening song was used throughout the cartoon...even in the American version. The used the same music without the lyrics.
The meaning of the lyrics in the intro :
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
A roaring Engine!
The Science Ninja!
Destroy Galactor!
The demons of the Earth!
With the weapons and tornado fighter
Flying to the Sun
Protecting the Earth
Science Ninja Team
Gatchaman, Gatchaman!
Flying to the sun
Protecting the Earth

Gatchaman, Gatchaman!
You are so right.
I don't know they are sining ,it sounds nice.
Try "Space Battleship Yamato" should be super "funny"

Hell yeah! As a kid in Los Angeles in the early early 1980’s on Spanish television channel 34!
The ending theme somehow reminds me of Kill Bill and remembered that Tarantino must’ve grown up in the same era.

Cool.
Favorite opening.
I can just picture my two Japanese friends, Suni and Taro, singing this song.
In the Netherlands it had 25 episodes and was titled "Strijd der planeten" (or battle of the planets)
I saw it back then on Kinderbios. There are one or two Dutch episodes on UA-cam. What i liked about the Dutch version was that there was more a threat of Jason wanting to take over leadership from Mark.

wow for the outro in better than the intro
+Awsomeisimo in '72, fans agreed, and the in/out songs were swapped a few episodes in.
+Awsomeisimo The outro is a LOT better than the intro. Should have been reversed.
+TreadwellJay Cool. Thanks for the info. That was a good move.
+TreadwellJay It switched like halfway through the series, didn't it? I watched like 15 episodes before I saw the switch between intro and outro.
YEEEEEH!
Japan version of the Super Friends.XD Tatsunko vs Capcom made me look this up. Didn't realize this cartoon was so old.
He also did the cover art and illustrations for the novels of Vampire Hunter D - and many many other things! He's a major illustrator in Japan.
