Production notes
This TV series ran for 26 episodes.
Created by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko.
The airing of this series on British children's TV in the early 1980s was the first English-language broadcast of work by Yasuhiko. The show was a surprising success, perhaps because its hero didn't wear any pants.
This series was bought by Paramount for import to the United States, but there is no indication that it was ever televised there. The series was dubbed into English in Australia using a voice cast of Australians, along with Australian technical crew.
