Daitetsujin 17note pronounced "one seven", not "seventeen" is a 1977 tokusatsu series created by Shotaro Ishinomori as his take on the Super Robot genre, being an homage to earlier Super Robot works such as Tetsujin 28 and Giant Robo.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })20 Minutes into the Future, the most advanced computer ever, Brain, is developed by an international peacekeeping organization known as the Red Muffler Corps to predict and counter natural disasters on Earth. One day, Brain decides that instead of helping humanity it would rather Take Over the World and escapes along with his creator Professor Hastler to build army of giant robots with which to accomplish this. After a young boy named Saburo loses his family in an attack by one of Brain's robots, he stumbles across another one named Daitetsujin 17 and manages to activate it. 17 does not share its creator's vision of subjugating humanity and instead chooses to help Saburo and the Red Muffler Corps fight against Brain's army.It is currently one of the 70 shows available on Toei's Tokusatsu World YouTube channel. The first episode can be viewed here.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

comment
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Brain was the world's greatest computer until he rebelled against his creators and decided to enslave humanity. Ironically, Brain gets this pulled on him later when Daitetsujin 17 rebels against him and sides with humanity instead.

Create Your Own Hero: In a similar vein to Kamen Rider or Cyborg 009, 17 was originally created by the bad guys before rebelling and fighting against them.
