Choriki Robo Galatt


Choriki Robo Galatt is a comedy-science fiction anime series by Nippon Sunrise. It is also known as Super Robot Galatt and Change Robo Galatt.
Produced by Nippon Sunrise, the series aired from October 1984 to April 1985 on Nagoya TV, TV Asahi and its affiliates. It was the follow-up series to Ginga Hyōryū Vifam, using many of the same production staff, and was made to purposely be lighter and less serious than its predecessor. The series was a debut role for both Katsuhiko Nakagawa and Yoshino Takamori.
According to Jonathan Clements and Helen McCarthy's The Anime Encyclopedia, the series spoofs the classical mecha genre, with the battles between robots serving as "a topic for gag and parody".

Plot

In the future, war has ceased to exist on Earth and ownership of any weapons has been banned. Dothan, an evil alien and member of the Space Real Estate, has invaded the Earth with the intention of buying up its land by force. The police are helpless in the face of the destructive Armoroboids. Then a mysterious robot appears, dashing into the scene. This robot is overwhelmingly strong and kicks the invaders to the curb.
Dr. Kiwi lies to the police that the robot, Galatt, was controlled by righteous aliens and that he was the only one who could contact them and ask for help. In actuality, Galatt was a modified version of Michael Marsh's school-riding robot, Jumbow, and had ordered Michael to hide his true identity by telling him that he would be punished if his possession of the weapon was discovered, while trying to get money from the police by posing as an intermediary with the aliens. So Jumbow, Michael, Patty the girl who drives Patyge, Kamige and the young man Kamil fight against the evil aliens to protect the peace of the Earth and to make money for Dr. Kiwi.
