#Jun Kawagoe Helms Getter Robo Arc Anime in Summer 2021

“#Jun Kawagoe Helms Getter Robo Arc Anime in Summer 2021”

Getter Robo Arc, the final installment of the Getter Robo Saga manga series created by Go Nagai and Ken Ishikawa, will get its anime adaptation in the summer of 2021. The manga was based on the original story by Nagai and Ishikawa, and Ishikawa and Dynamic Production worked on illustrations.

As a sequel to the manga edition of Getter Robo Go, it was serialized Futabasha's Super Robot Magazine from 2001 to 2003. Due to the suspension of the manga's publication, it had to end only with its first arc. With the death of Ishikawa in 2006, the manga and the Getter Robot Saga have remained unfinished.

Jun Kawagoe, who has worked on the Getter Robo anime series since 1998, is once again attached to direct. He worked on Change!! Getter Robo: The Last Day of the World (1998 / episode 4-13), Shin Getter Robo vs Neo Getter Robo (2000), and New Getter Robo (2004). Bee・Media works on anime production.

The song featured in the first teaser trailer posted today is "HEATS 2021" by Hironobu Kageyama. It is a re-recorded version of "HEATS," the theme song for Change!! Getter Robo.
