Production notes
This TV series ran for 39 episodes.
A remake of the story of Wu Kong.
Although the series' first three episodes stayed faithful to the legend, the rest of the show became known for its adult, surrealistic gags.
The PTA complained about the amount of bad language, and viewers in general were angry or confused. The series ended before its planned 52-episode run.
Leiji Matsumoto's 1978 series "Starzingers" was a science-fiction version set in outer space. It was redubbed as "Spaceketeers" and shown in the United States among other anime in the "Force Five" series.
The live-action series "Monkey" (1979) featured scripts by Isao Okishima and music from the group Godiego.
An anime TV-movie, Gisaburo Sugii and Hideo Takayashiki's musical "Goku Flies the Silk Road," was released in 1982.
Science-fiction sendups included "Dragon Ball" (1986), the 1988 Doraemon movie "Parallel Journey to the West" and Buichi Terasawa's "Goku: Midnight Eye" (1989). Sanrio produced 1991's "Pokopon no Yukai Saiyuki" ("Raccoon Fun Journey to the West").
The series "One Piece" was an extremely loose adaptation.
Another series, the 13-episode "Monkey Magic" (1999), was first released on video before appearing on TV. Based on a computer game, it featured a hero named Kongo and was faithful to the early part of the legend, although it wasn't until the second-last episode that the actual journey to the west began.
Also in 1999, the two-part video "Saiyuki," based on Kazuya Minekura's "G-Fantasy" manga, was released. It became a 50-episode TV series. Characters included Gyumao and Genjo Sanzo.
