009 in his black and white glory.
I just recently discovered a fan subbing group called, The Skaro Hunting Society which subs anime shows back in the 60's (yes, it is in black and white) and the 70's and to my surprise, the 1968 version of Cyborg 009 and the original Casshern anime are subbed!
Based on Shotaro Ishinomori's popular manga, Cyborg 009 is about nine cyborgs that were modified by the evil Black Ghost organization. These nine cyborgs band together to stop the said organization whose goal goal is to start the next world war, by supplying any rich buyers with their choice of countless weapons of war and mass destruction.
The original manga was too dark at that time and the anime was aimed to of course, to the kids. Making fans of the manga quite disappointed. But is the original anime too kid friendly? It is for us to see! So far, only seven episodes of this classic anime are subbed and you can check it here!
Probably, one of the most brutal anime titles that Tatsunoko Productions produced. Created by Tatsuo Yoshida, Neo-Human Casshern is about a man named Tetsuya Azuma who decides to transform himself into a cyborg known as Casshern and along with his dog, Friender, they will stop Braiking Boss and his army of robots in conquering Earth!
Currently, the first episode of the series is subbed, and hopefully they can place a Megaupload direct download link in the future! You can check it here, by the way.
