Summary:
The genius robotics professor, Dr. Komyoji has created Jiro (who has the ability to transform into Kikaider) – a humanoid robot tasked with the protection of Dr. Komyoji’s son, Masaru, and daughter, Mitsuko. Gifted with a conscience circuit, which has the power to simulate real emotions that helps to distinguish between “right and wrong”, Jiro must protect Mitsuko and Masaru from the evil Dr. Gil who wants Jiro to join his army and aid in his goal of world domination.
Kikaider is one of the few animes that I can say that it got it right. It has one the best plotlines, that made me feel attached to characters for the short amount of episodes that it aired for. Not to mention the fact that this is some of the best animation I have seen for a while to.
