Chargeman Ken! | comment |
Ken Izumi dons his special uniform and drives his Cool Car called the Sky Rod to fight against evil alien invaders called the Juralians. Ken is joined by his sister Caron and his robot dog Barican (who looks more like some sort of robo-duck).Chargeman Ken! is a notoriously bad 1974 Cult Classic anime. Although the studio that produced the show, Knack Productions, was known for low-quality productions emphasizing cheap gags over quality, this show may be the bottom of the barrel even by their standards. The production was something of a reunion for those who worked on Astroganger. Individual episodes only ran five minutes twenty seconds apiece (excluding the opening and end credits). It was cancelled after 65 episodes.Sadly, no country outside of the series' homeland has ever officially released or dubbed the show. (This was first averted in 2017 when Discotek Media has secured the license to release the show in the United States and Canada into home video.)Two different manga adaptations of the series, which ran on TV Land and Adventure King respectively, were published in tankobon format in March, 2013. A stage musical based on the series ran from October 31 to November 6, 2019 in Tokyo. | |

In Episode 59, a pair of hunters not only shoot birds illegally, but threaten to get violent with Ken and Caron when they refuse to hand over a bird they shot that is still alive. They end up stumbling on a Juralian base and are nearly killed, with only Ken's intervention saving them. They ultimately turn over a new leaf in gratitude, burning their guns and giving up hunting. | |

It ends with Nagisa taking attendance and finding out Ken is late. Episode 54 begins with Otokichi being reluctant to wake up and go to work at the wax museum.

Creepy Circus Music: At the beginning of the Circus Episode, the waltz "Waves of the Danube" is played in a minor key, and has a very melancholic tone. Justified, because it's an early cue that the circus is a trap to kill Ken. | |

Chargeman Ken! / int_acf33d00 | comment |
Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Some hijackers take over a plane, planning to exchange hostages for the release of their comrades, but several of the passengers turn out to be Juralians, who kill the hijackers. The Juralians then try to kill Ken, but since he is more hesitant to kill humans than Juralians, they did him a favor. | |

Would Harm a Senior: In "Dynamite in the Brain!", the Juralians implant a time bomb in the head of an old man named Dr. Volga. Ken drops him to destroy a Juralian spaceship. In Episode 48, some Juralians disguised as men surround and threaten to harm an old woman(herself a Juralian in disguise) so that Ken will be forced to step in, thus allowing the Juralian disguised as the woman to manipulate him. | |

Limited Animation: Not as much limited as it is barely there. Between each episode's short length and the horrendous budget, individual episodes almost never exceed 50 total frames of animation. | |

Complexity Addiction: The Juralians suffer from this big time. One of their wacky plans was to save a species of butterfly from extinction, give them the ability to eat human cells, breed them for fifty years, then unleashing them on human cities. Not only does this plan end up foiled in five minutes as usual, but there's no explanation on why they didn't just launch the attack fifty years ago when Ken wasn't around to stop them yet. | |
