Macron 1 English Sub & Dub

About Macron 1

Looking for background on Macron 1 (Sengoku Majin Goushougun)? This action, sci-fi and mecha series by Production Reed (1981) starts out like this. The setup: A meteor strikes the Earth and is found to emanate a mighty new energy called Beamler, which is used to power a battle robot, GoShogun, and a teleporting fortress, Good Thunder. The Docougar Crime Syndicate, lead by crime lord Neo Neros, try to steal the concealed of the energy from the inventor of GoShogun, but he kills himself rather than let them acquire it.

Soon after, his son is targeted by Neo Neros next, but he is taken in by the crew aboard Good Thunder, who travel the realm fighting NeoNeros's forces with GoShogun.

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. This one is best suited to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights.

Production & Appeal

Animation is handled by Production Reed, so the studio's house style defines how Macron 1 looks and moves on screen. The action focus matters here: fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Its 6.6/10 score suggests opinions are split, so it suits viewers who already like the genre. Released in 1981, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
