The Time Bokan Series turns 48!
On this day in 1975, Tatsunoko Production premiered an anime series that not only saved the company from falling in grace, but began a somewhat successful anime franchise. Time Bokan started broadcasting on Fuji Television on Saturday 6:30PM and the rest is history! This was also the debut of Masayuki Yamamoto as an anime composer and anison singer-songwriter. If not for this series, he wouldn't become popular in the first place. His prominence in this franchise made him a Tatsunoko Legend , which could explain why he was part of the 60th anniversary concert. May they continue to save and preserve history!
