Infini-T Force: The Movie Getting Theatrical Release

Meet Anime’s Avengers

You want to talk about old school anime? Who remembers such hits like Science Ninja Team Gatchaman and Tekkaman: The Space Knight?

Well to be honest we’d be surprised if you did. These were aired during the 70s after all, and it’s far more likely you saw Gatchman’s dubbed incarnation Battle of the Planets along with a show called Teknoman, which was actually the dubbed version of Tekkaman’s highly popular sequel Tekkaman Blade.

Putting aside the nostalgia, genuine fans of these classic shows will be thrilled to know that a mass crossover of all these iconic characters will be coming this October in the form of the series Infini-T Force.

The series features characters from Science Ninja TeamÂ Gatchaman, Tekkaman: The Space Knight as well as otherÂ Tatsunoko Production legends Casshan and Hurricane Polymar.Â

Excited yet? Well, get ready for more because it’s also been announced that following on from the series, an Infini-T Force movie is scheduled for a theatrical release in Japan come 2018.
