One of the first Super Robot manga and the one that introduced most of the traits of the Mecha genre. Constructed with the Super-Alloy Z, Mazinger was built by Professor Juzo Kabuto as a weapon against the Mechanical Beasts of the evil Dr. Hell. Koji Kabuto, the grandson of Professor Kabuto, becomes the pilot of Mazinger Z when his grandfather is killed, and battles from there on against Dr. Hell and his allies. This is the first series that introduced the concept of a pilot inside a Mecha, which all series from then on have followed.


They strike without warning and instantly plunge the world into terror. The Great General of Darkness leads the underground Mycenae Empire in a bid to conquer Earth. The Mazinger Army falls before the seven generals under him, each of them leading an army of superior Warrior Beasts. Meanwhile, Archduke Gorgon is relentlessly pursuing Koji Kabuto, trying to eliminate him before he can reach Mazinkaiser. But a red light in the sky over Mt. Fuji portends the greatest battle in history!
