Tatsunoko Vs Capcom: Tatsunoko character's anime openings part 1

[edmaster93]

PEGAS TEK SETTER!

haha i like all song from tatsunoko team because is the same song in their openings

[Dante33ification]

I didnt see batsu. or is he capcom?

[Brianguyanddude]

Gold Lightan has the best sounding theme :D

[KhinShaider]

Is it just only me, that I notice during the 70s and 90s anime, it often deals with robots and super heroes, while the 2000 and beyond is mostly about Harem anime & slice-of-life girl shows (as if they were all geared towards preteen girls and otakus obsessed with young girls).

I mean no harm, but I can't help thinking about it. Just look what type of anime are often produced these days.

[xionblades]

Yatterman and Gold Lightan is the best!!!

[TheJavieroliva]

4:27 gayyyyyyyyy

[TheJavieroliva]

yattterman-2 is pretty...I want to do full sex with she and morrigan!!!!!!

[thedonoftrek]

Haha, funny that Japanese kids from the 70's-80's were into mostly similar things that kids from the 70's-80's U.S. were into. Robots, super hero's that kicked ass and exploded shit, etc. Childhood!

[180kickz]

lol epic kicks at 4:31

[BryonYoungblood]

There's a lot of cool themes from Tatsunoko. Like Casshan's with it saying "Kick, attack, Denko Punch!!" or Polimar's with "Punch, Punch, PUNCH!!"

Bryon

[kingvideo4u]

Ken the eagke is a badass

[aznguyjimmy]

tatsunoko is like power rangers but its cartoons and its for kids

[ChainX]

@aznguyjimmy

And Power Rangers isn't? lulz

[taitei96]

@ChainX

Power Rangers original from japan.

[ChainX]

@taitei96

I'm well aware. I was actually pointing out that Power Ranger/Sentai shows are for kids. Aznguyjimmy seems to think other wise.

[kandenelite]

the new version of casshern its very cool (CASSHERN SIN) , but I renember the old casshern to, wow the good times xD

[reneluna007]

Gold Lightan should be "gold lighter" looks like a Zippo lighter...

[zemratsu]

If they were to remake Gold Lightan... OP should be "Domo Arigatou Mr. Roboto"!

XD

[FLCL4EVER1]

lol @ ken the eagle running over people haha

[luriomaxx]

Here in Mexico, many of Tasunoko works are really succesful, so many of their characters aren't strangers for mexican gamers.

[paymey69]

this game is for?

[nano69ify]

@paymey69 Nintendo Wii

[dim2bopis]

SUPER GATCHAMAN!!!

[ShadowSayain1]

Thanks alot for uploading these I really appreciate it. ^__^ Seeing theyre animes and knowing when they aired gives me a good feeling to know that theyre bringing back hero's from way back in the day. Id sure like to see more of that ya know? ;)

[BigBates]

every chaaracter looks like a power ranger lol

[Martialart07]

@BigBates well, gatchaman is what inspired super sentai, which then came power rangers, so.....yeah

[mugen9th]

hey on 0:40 they removed a part from polimars super drill tank instead of just turning to the drill tank he grabs you and takes you to the wall and then turns into the drill tank and hits you

[Zombiestampede]

Wow, in 1973 Japan gets Casshern and Friender and in 1976 the US gets The Blue Falcon and Dynamutt. lol

[gr8gmr]

@Zombiestampede

lol Well people do call Tatsunoko the "Japanese Hanna Barbera".

[LEAFtea57]

I dont any of these shows but I could totally see myself falling in love with these theme tunes.

[Ningflingslinger]

makes ya wonder how on earth did cartoons evolve from that to nowadays....

Well, ya gotta see that, this is all from ninteen-ninety-I-don't-know-ho­w-many, probably decades ago. Though, i still remember G-Force. Can't remember wich channel they aired here......Was it Locomotion Channel?..hmmm...nah...I'll check on it later

[SuperGamer87]

Anybody else beside me knew about any of these Tatsunoko anime titles before the game? I love me some Gatchaman! And what's wrong with people being inspired by other people, especially when those inspired very openly tell of their admiration of the people who inspired them? DIsney inspired not only Japanese studios, but prominent Canadian, French, German, British, and Russian animation studios as well. Wrong's world if the world wants to admire our homeboy Walt Disney? Art is universal!

[koridak]

most of these came from the 70's this was when animes weren't complete shit that started in the 90's

[megaha0sguy]

What? In 2006 was when most became shit.

[Gamsterjeff600]

I feel like these are all cheezy... But i think their were shows in the U.S. that were more cheezy than these shows

[nickymudkip06]

these videos are obviously from 2010 =P

[BadDudeGiovanni]

Gold Lightan is such a badass. He punched a robot - dragon... through it's SKULL.

LIGHTAAAAAN!

[ladyo07]

So There Are Two "G-Force"?...

[WESKERfromEVIL]

lol, 1972 ? Check out batman, he was created in the 40s.

[soundmonkey44]

Old anime style wasn't that much diffrent from the US cartoons style seen in the 80's.....I wonder how it developed in to Big eyes, crazy hair & over sized assests on women..lol...would love to see more of the old Tatsunoko stuff released on DVD stateside...even if it would be sub only...bring Yatterman to hte US somebody! lol!

[Firedragonadam]

Two words, Disney inspired.

[soundmonkey44]

most likely...But I'd say disney/ DC inspired since the Humans look like alod style DC hero's with all those muscles...lol.

[LooieLycanLucius]

something like that.... aI think they though:

"Hey, why dont we us the animation technique of US, improve and Put a good story that make sence?"

And then, Anime was born.

[SuperGamer87]

So Walt Disney inspired other artists on an international scale--so what's wrong with that? The legendary anime artists, like the "Godfather of Anime" Osamu Tezuka himself, very openly told that they were very inspired by the animation pioneer that was Walt Disney. There are also many French, British and German animators that drew major inspiration from Walt Disney through the decades. As an aspiring animator myself, I love them both! Anime HONORS Disney!

[killingkirby]

lol Yatterman seems like he came the 1970's disco

[RabidClone]

1:50

Shameless up-skirt shot. Lol Japan.

[EternalGuardian07]

Not until watching this video did I notice how amazing it is that TvC was even concieved in the first place.

[protoman500]

i dont know the japanese name but they used to have the G-Force anime in usa... and i only remember the leader's name was Ace, and the 2nd in command was Dirt or Dirk i think ...and Ace was an orphan because Galactor killed his father who was a pilot for some jet ....anyone want to help me out on the details? ..it used to be my favorite Anime show when i was a little kid

[Peter200000000007]

@protoman500 Jun The Swan is the female she was the third in command then it was Peewee and then Tiny The oringinal was called Gattchaman, but it was also called Battle of the Planets here in the US

[protoman500]

@ Peter200000000007 - Oh...wasnt Battle of the Planets are more cheesy and corny version of G-Force?..i remember one show where Galactor was some evil genius character and another where they portrayed him as a silly "joker in the kings court" kinda guy ....

[jamaynex]

Battle of the planets was the first american adaptation of the series. The Gatchman series was lightyears ahead of its time, but due to the violent nature of the series it was edited for u.s. content. Ken the eagle was mark, joe the condor was Jason, Jun the swan was Princess, Jinpei the swallow was Keyop, and Ryu was Tiny.. i could not stand the G Force adaptation becausethe voice acting and name changes were corny and too syrupy to me, even moreso than BoTP.

[protoman500]

@jamaynex - Oh ok...G-Force and BoTP were both an adaptation of Batchman? ...one was more serious (G-Force) and the other was more silly (BoTP) ? ...if i remember right

[jamaynex]

to be honest, even though G force was more faithful to the original anime (most of the violence was left in due to this adaptation being done in 86' instead of 78' and the eighties being alot relaxed on violence) the voice acting and the music in nBoTP still left me those memories closest to the original.. g force changed the music too much and had it feel like something else, even though we were watching the same thing as BoTP and Gatchaman.

[dragonslave93]

lol old anime just crack me up at how lame they used to be

[KrazziJ24]

Im sorry but Gold Lightan is probably the most ridiculous anime/video game character ive ever seen. He sits there and screams with his high pitched Japanese voice through most of the fights in TvC. I mean come on, he looks like a golden refrigerator with arms, legs, and a head

[MrNinjaFish]

He's actually a cigarette lighter.

[KrazziJ24]

LoL i know right!! Screw Gold Lightan!!!

[pspgameboy1989]

Just to let you guys know. I finally made one for the 5 new characters in Ultimate All Stars. Link is in the description.

[nikenke]

me gusta el pico asi que me gustaria que me lo chantara un negro

[lordgwydion2]

i wish there was people from ninja pizza cats ) : (old tatsunoko show)

[zledwing]

another character that is going to be in the game from Tatsunoko universe is Yatterman #2 (Ai-chan) for the Wii version

[SNKNinjaX]

any1 ready for Wi-Fi matches when it comes out :D?

[mariofan130]

lol i can imagine speed racer in this game

[Diggler277]

Ken the eagle, jun the swan, joe the condor, all we need now is howard the duck

[SnipingIsFun]

Around 2 weeks until the American version hits.

[penguinpanda0]

Congrats! (I know this is a bit late, but) Seth Killian actually referenced your videos in one of his interviews!

[pspgameboy1989]

Really? I had no idea he did O_o. Which interview was it?

[penguinpanda0]

@pspgameboy1989 There were so many, I don't remember which one, but I remember it going something like "Something really cool on YouTube is someone was posting the original Tatsunoko openings." I'm not kidding. It was with a rather unheard of site though...

[gunnerzero1]

the fighting engine looks great! dont know many of the character though

[mplattinc]

wow lame they should of jsut remade

marvel vs capcom -_-

[holyknight234]

I don't remember ANY of those Tatsunoko characters, but apparently I watched Science Ninja Team Catchaman with my older brother.

My favorite from this game (including Capcom characters) would have to be Tekkaman the Space Knight. He just looks so damn badass.

[EPworld]

@holyknight234 if i remember right guy who draw gatchaman characters was same guy who draw characters in final fantasy

[danielfolife]

yea Captain Falcon would be badass

FALCON PUNCH!!!

[jqlee]

........i dun noe casshern was so old.......

[igla]

Captain Falcon should be a Tatsunoko

[penciladdict333]

yh shonen jump vs capcom would be so awesome

Ichigo vs Soki

Goku vs Ryu

Luffy vs Viewtiful Joe

Capcom need to make tht game

[thegr8estone]

I Still want Samurai Pizza Cats, Good/Bad Bird, Big Cheese, Yatteran-2,Maximo, And Zack & Wiki

[Rareamos]

Yes, some of these list are my favorites, like the Samurai Pizza Cats :D

[penguinpanda0]

SPEED RACER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[penguinpanda0]

Japan had no ideo who Marvel was for Marvel vs Capcom, so it's fair that the US doesn't know who Tatsunoko is for Tatsunoko vs Capcom. (73 days left!!!)

[kareem88888]

@penguinpanda0 I knw this is pretty late but aren't japenese people involved in the creation of Marvel VS Capcom?BTW Marvel VS Capcom 3 is gonna pwn!

[NYCPulpHero]

@penguinpanda0 wrong. marvel has been publishing in japan for the past 40 years.

dumbass

[penguinpanda0]

@NYCPulpHero and tatsunoko had published in America with things like speed racer and samurai pizza cats. doesnt mean anyone had any idea who tatsunoko was.

[GokuMcDuck]

@penguinpanda0

Totall truth. Well, they do know a bit of Marvel tough.

[o94ght]

@penguinpanda0 Canada too

[TwilightLink77]

@penguinpanda0 Japan does know Marvel

[KamenRiderMatrix]

@penguinpanda0 That's not true. Marvel had been pretty vested in Japanese entertainment. They made the live-action toku Spider-Man, Captain America pretty much inspired their Super Sentai (Power Rangers in the US) team Battle Fever J and X-Men was dubbed in Japan. Japan probably knew more about Marvel then we ever did with Tatsunoko. Just saying.

[PikminMania]

that red guy from gatcha man is also confirmed

[kryptondragon1973]

I want Speed Racer! and that kiddies is a Tatsunoko property.

[penguinpanda0]

Mach a gogo, mach a gogo, mach a gogo goooooooooooooo!!! I also wanted the samurai pizza cats. They're awesome

[giantshadow17]

listen children, some of these shows still go on in japan, thats why theyre in this.

who cares if you dont know who they are, it wasnt made for americans. if it was intended for US then we'd have Optimus prime and the thundercats vs Ryu. its pretty much the same.

[o94ght]

@giantshadow17 Canada too

[doarner]

Lemme see if i understand it, ¿those are OLD TIME characters from OLD TIME anime shows in some kind of mix between OLD TIME fighters and Capcom ones?

70s died long time ago, let them rest in peace, bring new heroes to the fighting games, not oldies than only a 40 years old otaku can remember.

[Falcovsleon21]

Wow. That's harsh. I wish people would stop telling Capcom what to do with their franchises.

[doarner]

Maybe, but the thing is, a little introduction or history about those Tatsunoko characters for the newcomers or the people from the 90s and 2000 would help. Capcom can do what they want with their characters, because they give a brief story about each one and refresh it in time, unlike those 60s and 70s heroes in spandex and motorcycle helmets, ¿who is Yatterman, some kind of Rocket Team device to catch Pikachu?.

[Falcovsleon21]

Well y'know, there is a thing called Wikipedia. I'm pretty sure it has everything you need to know about Tatsunoko.

Also I'd like to point out, who really cares if they don't know who the Tatsunoko characters are. If the previous VS Capcom titles have proven anything, it'll still be a fun solid fighter.

Oh and it's not like some of the Capcom cast is all that recognizable either. Unless you can tell me one person who played that quiz whatever game that Saki chick is from.

[doarner]

Wikipedia is an easy solution, its like i NEED to search there first to play it, may be a good fighter but without information, like what superpowers they have or some history.

Its like "i dont wanna play with those Tatsunoko dudes, male white people with makeup in tight and colorful suits with no superpowers and child-like weapons, i prefer Ryu, at least i know him and his awesome powers"

There are some limits for the surprise factor in videogames.

[TheAverageGuyTAG]

No one knew who Mario was when he first came. Oh well, I guess no one played his games because they didn't know, right? Besides, who the hell ever wanted to play as some dopey plumber?/sarcasm

The thing is, the game was originally supposed to be Japan exclusive, where the people there KNEW who they were and didn't need info.

Anyways, it's nice to see what these characters had going for them. I honestly think that most of these intros are better than the intros we get today. :D

[conradojavier]

I wanna see Capcom fight Transformers,DC, or Canadian or European Cartoons.

[Martialart07]

@doarner loser

[doarner]

@Martialart07 Why, cuz my head is in this century, and not in 1950 or whenever those Tatsu-something are? because i'm from a generation that grew up watching better stuff with better non-repetitive heroes (or is some dude with spandex and ninja stars or is some giant lunchbox, i mean, robot, EVERY SINGLE SHOW of Tatsu-that is about)?

This game is like a mix between Super Smash Bros and Kingdom Hearts, a desperate attemp to get attention on the oldies.

[Martialart07]

@doarner you shouldn't be disprespectful to another countries heroes. its sacred to them, just like our heroes to ours

[doarner]

@Martialart07 HEROES?! firefighters are heroes, a cop who rescues a child from a kidnapper IS a hero, a fictional character from a TV show ISN'T a hero, is just recreation for merchandising.

[Martialart07]

@doarner yeeeees, i know that, im not talkin about real heroess, im talkin bout fictional heroes, dude. WHERE did firefighters, cops come from??

[doarner]

@Martialart07 The thing with fictional heroes is the message they give, you know the case of the boy who broke his arm cuz he though he could fly like Superman? or the spanish dude who killed his family imitating some Final Fantasy character? unlike real heroes, fictional gives the right message in a wrong way, the "heroic luck" is putting a lot of kids on hospitals, specially in Japan with all their heroes with sharp and dangerous merchandise.

I Like real heroes, i can ask them useful stuff.

[Martialart07]

@doarner ugh, okay bro, you have gone...into somethin completely different, so.......okay then. you don't really like japan superheroes, got cha

[Berracuzzi]

it really sucks how most of the music of this game won't make it to the american version im so pissed bout that

[mekanda1]

I have a little question is Tekkaman Knight series related to the newer Tekkaman Blade series? I just need to know considering their character designs seems so similar. Thank you!

[Oof]

Tekkaman Blade was a 90s remake (of sorts) of the original Tekkaman. It was released internationally to western countries as Teknoman.

Hope that helps. :)

[mrfreespirit]

Thanks for posting the intros. I've always been curious about the animes ever since Tatsunoko vs Capcom came out.

[gasigogi]

I waited 6 minutes just to see Tekkaman op. But I like the remake version better

[khantusions24]

wifi?

[Badguy260]

you bet

[EBONYL33T]

An updated version of casshern anime is out came out 2008 i believe but yah watched it and was very good go watch it at animeseason(dot)com

[seanmyster6]

looks like Tatsunoko's really into robots and stuff

[danxtony]

jaja yes, also everyone from Tatsunoko has like "super hero" clothes XD

[conradojavier]

Expect that Chubby Genie they removed in the US & EU Version.

[ivantopito]

wait what? I never knew that G force was from the 70s, i grew up with this cartoons and im only 19 years old...wow, my country was very cheap on the cartoons they could afford XD im still grateful for such memories though.

[Hannib25]

you cant find casshern anywhere on you tube all you get is casshern sins or something

in every ones opening except hurrican polymars

the heroes name is said.

[shonuxs]

It's pretty obvious who Joe's based of a of. The second looks like him.

[KingLazerman]

actually joe looks more like the original quickman from megaman 2

[Hannib25]

GUYS LISTEN TO THIS

THEY Want to add 5 new characters for US? Well i have three perfect ones right here

Dante (most likely DMC1 cause he's the youngest)

he would be a Perfect addition to this game

Proto man From the classic Mega Mans/ He would need to be refined to look more like the mega man they have.

Alastor From viewtiful Joe. He would complement Joe, so he doesn't have to fight alone.

I think these would be so awesome. I am serious about this. I'll put every where if i have to

[Tokamaru97]

and for Tatsunoko they should add EVA 01, or Shinji from Evangelion (I want to punch him so badly!) or maybe Go Mifune/Speed Racer (Because I want to run over Shinji or Alex with the Mach 5). As for Capcom, either Strider or another Megaman character, maybe Battle Network's Protoman because he's pretty cool looking, and would be great if Strider and Protoman could fight each other.

[B4ULoveShine]

EVA is a Gainax property; Tatsunoko made it clear themselves.

Anyway, since it's 3 Tatsunoko/ 2 Capcom, here's my suggestion:

Tatsunoko: Space Ace, Speed Racer, Samurai Pizza Cats

Capcom: Jin Saotome (Cyberbots: Full Metal Madness), Tessa (Red Earth)

[Tokamaru97]

Oh, it is is it? I didn't know that, I'm not much of an EVA fan, I just like the opening and want Shinji in a game so I can see him get his ass kicked.

God, I hope Tessa isn't in the US release... she was horrible in SvC, but that might be the god-awful KoF engine at fault there. She wasn't that good in Gem Fighters either, and I haven't played Red Earth yet.

[conradojavier]

so much for Pheonix right.

[DLo305]

DMC3 had the youngest Dante

[nitemaric]

polymer and tekeman r in this i havent seen them since mugenation

[Enixspirit]

i like the new Casshern SINs intro.

[TwilightLink77]

I guess PSPgameboy1989 should do this again for the 5 US exclusive characters.

[Gamelvl84]

OH gatchaman GATCHAMAAAAAAAAAAAN! YEAAAH!

Lol I love classic Japanese openings, they are so damn cheesy. ^_^

[Ashsaber5]

That is the ugliest Tekkaman I have ever seen.

[nitemaric]

i prefere his mugen char

[OrochiDomingo]

Gatchaman theme's catchy as hell

[starshkr46]

wtf? Kung Fu Valley Girl?

Anyway, Dinosaur King is the best anime ever.

[saizerboy]

Imagine if later came shonen jump vs capcom, I can't imagine goku vs ryu, ichigo vs soki, naruto vs megaman, kinikuman vs zangief

[gr8gmr]

That's what I'm hoping for.

[TwilightLink77]

I want to see Yami Yugi and Seto Kaiba be playable characters in Shonen Jump vs Capcom if they make one.

[gr8gmr]

I really can't picture that.

[TwilightLink77]

Well Yami Yugi would be using the powers of the Shadow Games in his hyper combos while Kaiba would be using his duel monsters and unleashing all three of his blue eyes white dragons for his hyper combo.

[gr8gmr]

It's been a while since I watched Yu-Gi-Oh so I'm not sure what kind of powers Yugi could use in a fighting game like this. I think there are far better character choices.

[TwilightLink77]

Watch Yugioh season 0 that would answer your question.

[NarutoKirby165]

They had him as a character in both Jump! Stars games, they just had him summon monsters in every attack.

[gr8gmr]

Yeah, but that was a different kind of fighting game.

[NarutoKirby165]

Still, they could implement that to make Yugi a fighting character.

[APZRman1]

They could make him like pokemon trainer in Smash Bros.

[RudgerSA]

this is basically the worst idea i've ever heard

[TwilightLink77]

Actually Kaiba summons monsters for his Hyper Combos and Yami Yugi would use his punishment games for his hyper combos.

[buttamaru4]

That a really big idea!!!!

I think something like that to do in the fighter maker....but i can`t find some sprites.....Ruby from marvel vs capcom vs luffy....

[peluyomonito]

heyyyy how to i get this game or if anybody has it im willing to trade it for "marvel vs capcom 2"

[Devilbat]

U.S. version comes out later this year

[nitemaric]

so it will b relaesed for the us u just answered my question some what thnk u

[Devilbat]

Also import Sunday Vs Magazine for PSP since its region free and you can play as Devilman

[nitemaric]

wow u know who devilman is

[Devilbat]

Yes and also Transgen is doing an English patch for Berserk PS2 game.

And there is a Front Mission 5 full English patch you can find online.

And they are making a Bastard!! Online PC game along with a Hokuto no Ken Online PC game

[nitemaric]

cool

[WerewolfCarnival]

You know who the Gatchaman theme song reminds me of... SogeKing, that's who. SogeKing all day, everyday.

[WerewolfCarnival]

does anyone see anything suspicious @ 8:31or is it just me. =O

[pantherablaze]

Imagine later tatsunoko vs marvel. yeah i can picture Eagle Ken from Gatchaman vs Wolverine from the X-men. bring it on bub!!!!!

[HenryTouchdown]

G-Force is the shit!!!

But Speed Racer and Samurai Pizza Cats should have been in the game too.

[magillablack]

oh shit. G FORCE!! that was the shit!!! i used to watch this cartoon.

[theIconX]

capcom vs shoenjump goku kameha kameha vs ryu hadouken

[TwilightLink77]

Yes and Yami Yugi as a playable character.

[GalaxYSmokaH4Trilli0]

Speed racer should had been in Tatsunoko Vs Capcom

[Caqui]

Wow. I love this. Classics!

[revolution82]

r u series? go check your mental health.

[Caqui]

Am I "series"? Go check a school and get an education.

[goldenbender]

:41 .....is that one of his speicals? I've never seen it in the actual game. Well the drill part i saw, but not the part where he pushes you toward a wall then drill.

[Kaizoku1138]

Well this WAS an old trailer, so they might've cut it out of the final version.

[conradojavier]

Tatsunoko >Shonen Jump

[gr8gmr]

Tatsunoko>Shonen Jump? I don't think so.
