About Space Knight Tekkaman

Looking for background on Space Knight Tekkaman (宇宙の騎士テッカマン)? This action, adventure and mecha series by Tatsunoko Production (1975) starts out like this. What the story covers: Tekkaman is just an average bright boy in his everyday life. However, modern science can turn him into a mighty space warrior.

As things develop, this turns into a reality when aggressive aliens come from space to invade our planet. Armed with a space lance, Tekkaman gallantly goes into action against the grotesque space creatures. During his battles he encounters a mysterious young man from another planet who helps him out whenever he is in danger.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Voice work is led by Yasuo Yamada as Andro Umeda and Shinji Nakae as Narrator. This one is best suited to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. With 26 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
