At last summer's Otakon, Discotek had a slate of new licenses to announce that included 1974 anime Charge Man Ken, which the called "the worst anime ever...or the best?" Preparing for the release, they've now published the first episode on Youtube.
Young Ken Izumi, his sister Caron, and their annoying robot sidekick Barican must save the local amusement park from the sinister Juralians. Watch for the scene where Ken rolls two feet off the ground, thanks to an animation error!
It's Caron's birthday, and the Juralians crash the party to challenge Chargeman Ken. For some reason, Ken accepts and walks into the obvious trap.
They've also posted the second episode of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
A SDBD for 1986's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is planned for August 29th 2017.
The 52 episode series from Panmedia adapts L. Frank Baum's first four Oz books.
