Tetsujin 28-gō (鉄人28号 Tetsujin Nijūhachi-gō, literally "Iron Man #28") is a 2004 Japanese anime series and the remake of the original 1960s anime adaptation, animated by Genco and Palm Studio and written and directed by Yasuhiro Imagawa.[1][2][3] The series has been released in the United States under its original name by Geneon and in the United Kingdom by Manga Entertainment, the first time a Tetsujin-28 property has not been localized to Gigantor in America or other English speaking nations. While not fully based on the original manga, it followed an extremely different storyline than in the 1960s series.
Plot
The story takes place ten years after World War II, approximately the same time as the manga debuted, focused mainly on Shotaro's pursuit to control and fully understand Tetsujin's capabilities, all the while encountering previous creations and scientists from the Tetsujin Project.
