The Bad Thing About Indomie

Megaloman

Ho frequentato le scuole elementari durante la prima metà degli anni ottanta. L'invasione nipponica in Italia era già iniziata da qualche annetto. Le emittenti televisive avevano iniziato a trasmettere i cartoni animati giapponesi. Se non ricordo male the first that I remember seeing were Grendizer and Mazinger . Then came Steel Jeeg Robot and Daitarn 3 and many others. Over the years I get to see plenty of them ...
not robots of Japanese cartoons that I want to write, but a Japanese TV series starring actors in the flesh at that time was following every day: megalomaniac.
The story was very simple, the young Takashi and his mother escaped from the planet invaded by Rosetta 'Black Star Army commanded by Captain Crime and take refuge on our planet where living peacefully in Japan . Takashi leads a seemingly normal life, like many peers, he attended the gymnasium Kung Fu Master Takamine , has a girlfriend, Ran , daughter of the master, three inseparable friends, Seiji , Hyousuke and Ippei . Takamine Except, nobody knows the truth about the past of Takashi, until the Army of the Black Star will target the planet Earth by sending the monsters warriors.
Then Takashi receives a gift from his mother two bracelets that will allow it to transform into the giant Megaloman and thereby combat the invaders. Also Ran, Seiji, and Ippei Hyousuke receive wristbands that enhance their martial skills to work alongside Takashi in the fight against the Army of the Black Star.
The stories were very simple. In general, each episode begins with Captain Crime intent to plot a plan for disttuggere Megaloman staunch bulwark of the Earth, then followed the sending of a monster warrior who destroyed the peaceful daily life of the town of Japan's turn, so the 'intervention-Takashi Megaloman would then resolve the matter and postponed the fight next episode. Do not miss plot twist at the end of the series : Captain Crime Hiroshi was actually the evil twin brother Takashi!
Obviously, given adesso perdono gran parte del loro fascino, ma a quell'età a queste cose ci si appassiona sul serio... poi gli scenari erano realistici, molto vicini alla quotidianità da sembrare veri, tanto che ricordo come un giorno, avrò avuto sei-sette anni, chiesi a mia madre perchè al telegiornale non parlavano mai dei mostri guerrieri che attaccavano la Terra e di tutti i danni e i morti che provocavano in Giappone ... ah! beata innocenza!
