About Time Bokan Series: Gyakuten Ippatsuman

Here is what Time Bokan Series: Gyakuten Ippatsuman is about, retold in plain terms: an action, comedy and sci-fi anime by Tatsunoko Production (1982). What the story covers: Ippatsuman is the sixth in the Time Bokan series. In the 1990s-era Osteandel Town is the headquarters of Time Lease, a business that leases almost everything you could ask for including mighty robots.

Further in, they are proud of themselves for being number one in the international ranking of billionaires, for the past ten consecutive years. Meanwhile there is another lease company in the same city called Skull Lease where the notorious villain trio work as top executives. Their ostensible object is to disgrace the credit of Time Lease and replace them as the leading enterprise.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. It will appeal most to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights.
