This story comes from the very last volume of Getter Robo Āḥ and is translated by good ol' C-K (Who translated Shin Getter Robo and UFO Robo Grendizer). He's also translating Getter Robo Āḥ, so that's great news! A million thanks to him.
Funnily enough, I got the script for this the weekend Shin Mazinger adapted this story. The design of Mazinger Z in Shin Mazinger is based off of this work, which is cool, since Ishikawa's deisgn is great.
Enjoy!

Crap, thought this was Getter Robo Ah from Mangaupdates.

ReplyDeleteI put it as it's own entry, but annoyingly enough, they changed it to be listed under Getter Robo Āḥ. Which isn't entirely incorrect, but still. Sorry about that.
Looks like this chapter heavily influenced the Mazinger series by the Akumetsu guys (except for the parts with Sayaka's gruesome death and Kabuto's grandfather being batshit crazy).
ReplyDeleteYou spoil us so much you know that <3
ReplyDeleteGetter Team: No apologies necessary. This was an awesome story and anything by Uncle Ken is greatly appreciated.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this chapter. The monster who took control on Mazinger Z said he is a soldier for Myecen .. Are the Mycene and Mikenese the same civilization ?
ReplyDeleteThe correct translation is Mycenean. But Mikene is how the Japanese spell it out.

ReplyDeleteOh Great. So, the Mycenean is Great Mazinger's enemy ..!
Very nice! I was surprised to see just how close the anime version of this chapter was to the manga version.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous: I just wish Baron Ashura were alive to see that episode. *single tear drop*
