"Hurricane Polymar" (1974) - Opening

[armegeddis]

It sucks I can't find a fan sub of this series. :(

[MrThycondrius]

mi ricordo ancora che cantavo la canzone in giappo quando ero un bambino, ancora mi vedo li davanti alla tv a cantare ^^

[malachicrimine]

hurryaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

[teknogeek3749]

@houndoom4 They already made a game for Wii called Tatsunko vs Capcom. It features characters like Karas, Polimar, Yatterman, Casshern, etc.

[madstalin313]

I'm kinda humming this song right now, during this hurricane where getting.

[Raiadrin]

HU... RIII... CANE! POLYMAR! Kazekiru tekken punch punch punch(y) Jigoku no akuma yo ukete miro Sora ni odoru kumo ka maboroshi Hissatsu geien Hurricane! Teki wo azamuku kage kage kage Ore wa Hurricane HURRICANE POLYMAR! (Random noise ending with battle cry) Hissatsu geien hurricane Teki wo azamuku kage kage kage Ore wa Hurricane HURRICANE POLYMAR!

[1983parrothead]

@sygo7g Still pictures were probably less interesting than motion pictures (or animations/videos), which is probably one reason why the 1987 TMNT (sometimes incorrectly referred to as the "classic TMNT" or "original TMNT") caught more attention than the 1984 TMNT comics. Another reason why it was created was to sell its toyline, which was the same reason why Toei Spider-Man (also referred to in Japan phonetically as "Spy Darma" and generically known overseas as the "Japanese Spider-Man").

[1983parrothead]

@sygo7g Interesting. That's like some company taking the criminally obscure, but hardcore and slightly bloody 1984 TMNT comics, and creating a loosely-based 1987 animated series out of it with less fighting, but it became popular. Other companies did the same with video games, R-rated films (e.g. Rambo & The Force of Freedom, etc.) and even some that were already in English (e.g. Fox Kids Thunderbirds); however, people hated them, because they're loosely-based on their sources and different.

[GadGades]

@1983parrothead you're mistaken in that people didn't hate them at all. More people liked the tmnt cartoon than hated them. Not to mention the comics are uneven and overrated. they can be good or they can completely jump into bad stories. No one hated the rambo cartoon though its not cult classic so few people remember it.

[1983parrothead]

@GadGades I'm not saying people hated the 1987 TMNT, I was saying it was made in a similar way to how the shows based on Double Dragon, Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat were made. And how can you tell if the 1984 TMNT comics are overrated? I almost don't hear any talk about it. Everytime someone mentions "TMNT", the 1987 series pops up in their minds first. I thought the Rambo cartoon was hated, because of being uncanon, while now-disabled(?) YT user "theswitcher" made a "Rambo Stupidity" video.

[GadGades]

@1983parrothead You can find things to make fun of even in ok shows but maybe the Conan adaptation would be better. It's actually quite nice despite the censorship going on. I personally feel the TMNT comics are overrated because they are very uneven and they don't stick to what I consider what they do well. Rambo doesn't have a canon really. The movies and the book go off on different tangent, and its very rare for what a cartoon does to be consider canon even if its good.

[1983parrothead]

@GadGades I watched Conan The Adventurer before, and it didn't bother me much.

People like the AVGN, RetroJunk forum members, the HVGN and other similar people often focus on the 1987 TMNT, which is why there was a lack of 1984 Mirage TMNT content in most early TMNT video games, especially the beat 'em ups. I'm sure animations are praised more than most comics, because they move. That's why the word "anime" is heard more than "manga".

So Rambo's universe is like The Legend of Zelda universe?

[Joniko76CT]

the original song of this cartoon was, is, and it'll be the most beautiful could be..........

[Darkspines22]

I want an english version of this show.

[SuperAdventures]

@Darkspines22 They've had well over 30 years to translate the original Casshern and Polymar to English, and with the U.S anime industry in a slump and classic anime releases yielding next to no sales (look at ADV's Gatchaman release), it won't ever happen. Not even subs!

[IamVendetta95]

I think the Japanese got these ideas from our comic books or something like that, but just different and these are better :P

[MHMemeDoubleYourFun]

@IamVendetta95 Even the U.S. invented video games, while Japan took the idea and made their own that became more highly praised than the ones developed in the U.S. and elsewhere.

[ACEMontague]

@IamVendetta95 Pretty Much, just with there own spice. :P

[KefkeWren]

Hurricane Polymar...he turns into a jet like a boss.

[doctorw2]

japanese superheroes are the best becuase they are so weird.

[zambazzar]

I so kickass I have an arrow pointing to my dick 

[TakeshiVideogamesinc]

Hurricane is a Over powered Crazy Super hero who like beat up every one miserably

[manofgames4555]

Other super guys are mad cuz Polymar be stylin' on em'!

[PS3dudeJerry]

Oh. My. God. That may be the most awesome thing I'll ever see in my lifetime.

Hur! RI! CAAAAAAANE!

[Bladerunner361]

This used to be a cult in Italy, I grew up with Hurricane Polymar....Back then we were not as politically correct as today, he used to kick the shit out of the villains in a pretty nasty way, but, personally, I did not turn into a sociopath because of this. Nowadays kids grow up with reality shows, don't think there is any good cartoon out for them anymore. Thanks for posting!

[8BitAwesome]

0:57 penis canon.

[MyFoodIsBad]

@8BitAwesome

I will never be able to unsee that

[DJFitality]

@8BitAwesome hahahahahahahahaahahahah

[shoNuuff]

You can tell the Tatsunoko cartoons were inspired by a lot of Hanna Barbera cartoon styles like those wolf guys would probably be seen in some He-Man or even Scooby Doo show.

[rumbazz]

Beating up furries with style and manhood since 1974.

[Zeruckiven]

is there anything funnier than those/that little kids/kid saying punchy?

[yuyufan]

[Shyningfade]

Punch, punch, punchy!

[MathematiclObjection]

Bam bam bam bam ding buh bam! Bam Bam Bam bam duh buh bam! dam dam dam torrriyahhh!

[StudioQuote]

Not that I was expecting much, it is an anime after all.

[Ikeman332]

so that explains his down special in Tatsunoko vs Capcom transforming into a drill

[claw7705]

who is that girl? Does she transform into crazy robot vehicles too?

[PantherCaruso]

@claw7705 It's his girlfriend Teru, and she once tried to wear the Polymar suit.

[Kyubi888Naruto]

HUR-REE-KANE!!!

I love the way he says it.

[yanmure101]

@Kyubi888Naruto PORIMAA!

[willywillboc]

the sites lyricstranslatecom fight polymar is the theme

[willywillboc]

look up polymar kicking ass to see some real pwnage!! and google H. Polymar theme in english too see the translation.

[turbol250]

Anybody now the lyrics of this song ??

[ViciousZero9]

Beating up furries, walking on water, making a robotic bird explode after transforming into a jet and flying into it's head, and destroying underwater bases within 5 seconds. Polymar is way too manly.

[ShuHibiki]

@ViciousZero9 This must be the guy who trained Captain Falcon.

[Spektre41]

@ViciousZero9 Lest we forget that he does this while wearing a green thong outside of his spandex with an arrow pointing down at it.

[ArfPaws]

@ViciousZero9 This comment is made out of win and gold. He even seems to have a non-useless female sidekick, Good thing the show was cancelled, this was too manly for its time.

[yumeshimanet]

@ArfPaws Actually Teru, the female side-kick/love interest/fanservice source was rather helpless, though she was also pretty bossy and daring, particularly for the time.

And the show wasn't cancelled, it ended its own story, not getting a sequel, still having a decent ending (you couldn't say so for Tekkaman, for example).

[cartoonetworksucksex]

Hurricane!!

[Kin20x6]

0:31 He punchs the Cat thing in the throat.

[WarriorBoy]

@Kin20x6: I know! I was like, OH SHIT HE JUST PUNCHED THAT LION-MAN IN THE FUCKING THROAT!

This shit was not playing around back in the day! I know him cause of Tastunoko vs. Capcom, but now I will forever associate him with Cat Throat Punching!

[rhynodaddy]

@WarriorBoy LMAO! Cat Throat Punching, I wonder if he and Micheal Vick shared a jail cell.

[HumanDaikon]

Hopefully because of the success of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, there's a chance that the characters from the Tatsunoko shows that weren't already released in english will get an english release, and this (along with Yatterman) will be one of them, because he looks pretty bad ass. That blonde, I guess it's his girlfriend, right? Yeah, she looks like good eye candy. XD

[StrawhatDawn]

Something to watch when high <3

[oriramu]

heheh Time Bokan series , any chance for a remake or perhaps a..Live action movie.!

[UltimoCamdawg]

Tatsunoko actually remade Yatterman in 2008. They also made a live-action movie.

[oriramu]

yeah and an upcomming film for gatchaman.!

[MarioLinkGenofan]

By the looks of it thisd guy was captain falcon before captain falcon was born

[giiiaan]

whn i first saw him i thought the thing on his chest was a dodobird... so... is he captain dodo? xD

[oriramu]

HUH.???

[pious83]

why is he wearing a phong?

[ResChronoNullius]

@pious83 To be fair, it doesn't seem as much a 'thong' as 'underwear about two sizes too small'.

[doug1291]

YEEEAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

[Thecatarattat]

Anyone know what the fuck that thing is on his chest? Swan? Duck? What the fuck? (Heh, Rhyme)

[ElSingario]

I think it's supposed to be a stylized P(olymar). Totally looks like a duck, though.

[ElSingario]

They should have put that girl in TvC. "LVL3 HYPER COMBO: INEFFECTUAL ELBOW RUBBING".

[SonicSlayer66]

lmao

[PantherCaruso]

She's playable in Tatsunoko Fight!

[ResChronoNullius]

@PantherCaruso ...Polymar is a guy. :c

[ResChronoNullius]

@PantherCaruso Oh wait, didja mean the blonde girl? I don't think that's Yatterman-2, if that's what you meant...

[Rutawind]

@ResChronoNullius

He said Tatsunoko Fight, not TvsC. Two different games.

[ResChronoNullius]

@Rutawind Ooooh! Japanese-only, I guess? Any good? I import sometimes.

[Rutawind]

@ResChronoNullius

Yup, JP only. I never played it, so I wouldn't know. I've only seen youtube vids of it. You can check 'em out and decide for yourself.

[Dinosaurprince]

Is that giant purple dick firing on him?

[steenjaxproductions]

Why isn't this stuff out on DVD? Or if it is, I can't find it.

[BlackFang001]

The original CAPTAIN FALCON!!!! 0_0

[jurpentine]

Man Polymar must really hate furries if that opening was any indication.

[SeoulMan]

Isn't that Isao Sasaki singing this? The voice of Joe the Condor from Gatchaman.

[noumen75]

鍼灸ポリマー!!!

人間(有機物)が飛行機や潜水艦(無機物)になるという有り得な­い設定が素敵ですね。

[thorgrim103]

why hasnt someone used rock you like a hurricane for this guy his names is hurricane polymar.

[yanmure101]

HA! RI! KEN! POLYMAR

somethinsomething somethinggggg...

PANCH PANCH PANCHIEEEEE

XD

I love old Anime. All of the openings back then had some deep voiced "we got this guy off the street random" Japanese man singing so forcefully. And to add on to the awesomeness is the horrible engrish thrown in. great stuff.

[felixandnaruto]

the horrible engrish is vital :D

[yuyufan]

@yanmure101 I think they found them all singing Karaoke, and told them to just throw in English wherever they want lol

[reiaraia]

0:39 女の子強すぎw

[saul1998]

i love this song even tougt im mexican... jajaja just kindin

[PetrovIvanMartin]

Is it me, or Tatsunoko's popularity increased thanks to Tatsunoko vs Capcom?

[SuperAdventures]

Tatsunoko's popularity, as well as interest in the company and some of its shows, have indeed increased ever since TvC was unveiled and released. i for one welcome this surge in popularity. :D Always good to see/hear people look up classic anime.

If that damn movie doesn't keep on getting pushed back, then "Gatchaman" will be (if it already isn't) the one to benefit the most from this recent interest in Tatsunoko shows. Aside from Speed Racer, its Tatsunoko's most popular anime.

[UltraTurboJack]

Indeed we need more anime fans. And not to mention we need this game to do super well so we can get a sequel! :D

[ObjectionableHero]

@SuperAdventures Isn't Tatsunoko the great granddaddy of every studio ever, I mean did people who branched from it create there own studio's? I heard stories that Gainax had it roots in Tatsunoko.

[AdamYJ]

@SuperAdventures Unfortunately, the studio that was making the Gatchaman movie, Imagi Studios, went under a few months ago. So, I doubt it will be released.

[battybuddy]

@SuperAdventures Yeah. too bad Speed didn't get a representative, or at least a cameo(that I've seen yet at least)... It was actually the first thing that popped into my head when the game was announced, and I'm willing to bet I wasn't the only one..

[shoNuuff]

@SuperAdventures That would be a great pitch to get TvC2 Developed after MvC3. I honestly would have cared less about Tatsunoko if TvC did'nt show up.

[conradojavier]

I'm interested in watching Old Animes away from the Shonen Jump's of Today.

[rajayuca]

@PetrovIvanMartin thanks to the game, im now hooked on this vintage shit. im buying all the gatchaman episodes, casshan, tekkaman blade, (even viewtiful joe)lol

thank you capcom & tatsunoko for emptying my pocket....!!!!

expect this hurricane rolly polly oly dude, cant be found in the U.S. sofar iven seen a couple of vhs copies for like 300 us dollars. its ridiculous....

[Reiki151]

@PetrovIvanMartin i for one was was inspired to watch these shows after playing Tatsunoko vs capcom.

[Bokken2006]

@PetrovIvanMartin yup I'd say all thanks to TVC

[pisseuses]

殴りすぎだっちゅうの。

[Jimkaider]

So he wears a suit made of memory plastic, and has the ability to shapeshift with it, of sorts.

He's pretty top tier in Tatsunoko vs Capcom.

[Nyoronoru]

Not really. He has a lot of trouble chasing down people.

Upper tier, definitely.

[PantherCaruso]

Actually, mid, around the ranks of Roll and Cash.

Hey Nyo! :3

[xxPHOENIX80xx]

Did Polymar blow up Centre Neptune at 1:12. I hope 7 Zark 7 was in there...

[SuperAdventures]

LMAO!!! I thought I was the only one who thought that looked like Gatchaman/G-Force's underwater base. And yes, I too hope 7-Zark-7 and 1-Rover-1 were in there.

[theoddronin1]

@xxPHOENIX80xx

You and me both, man!

[thefatman69dude]

this and casshern are my favorite old school animes

[dig6dog]

polymar was the shnizzle! had phatos, sex and violence aplenty.

and joe kuruma (sherlock holmes'smarter brother)

[rellik4life]

I must admit though, I love the art style for the 70s ,80s & 90s anime than the ones today. You can't compare this to something like naruto

[conradojavier]

Modern Animes R Overrated.

[rellik4life]

you got that right my friend, i find myself enjoying the classics more than the current ones.

[SaitohYatate]

And most importantly, old school cartoons, like this one, Gacthaman, Casshern, etc. had more depth, it really was worth to watch every episode of anime series back in the 70's.

[battybuddy]

@rellik4life Believe it! XD

[Safiloo1]

I have the All the episodes :)

[DamianBloodfighter]

selten so gelacht^^

[XelchanTheBrave]

Holy shit, Polymar's design is so cool!

[Safiloo1]

Hariken Polymar = Best Tatsunoko anime

[Xephon0930]

Then what the hell is Gatchaman!?!?!?!

[Safiloo1]

Thats my opinion man. People obvious will say Gatchaman its the best, beacuse its the most famous Tatsunoko anime and it was in a lot of countries. Hurricane Polymar was only in Italy and Japan. Its like saying Ryu its the best SF char, and I dont Know, Akuma, Guile and Chun-li are a piece of shit and thats not true.

[Xephon0930]

Touche....

[Xephon0930]

Gatchaman=Best Tatsunoko anime!!! Period!!!!!

fix'd

[ticksmilk]

Most popular anime over here in the west

[Makurou]

man 70s-80s anime opening songs kick so much more ass than this gay Jpop they have these days, its all the fucking same. I miss stuff like this heh.

[Xephon0930]

I'd have to agree for the most part.

[filos85]

Mitico Polymar, uno dei miei cartoni preferiti dell'infanzia!

[luigiperso]

fantastic,I remember it since I was a child. Have you seen the OVA? You can't miss it

[BozeefusIsBack]

Hurricane Polymar = Best Tatsunoko char in Tatsunoko v.s Capcom

[panfi15]

lier its the duck woman jun

[BozeefusIsBack]

IDC what you think really its my opinion

[SisforSachiel]

You mean swan...

And technically Karas is the best

[LuffyDeeAce]

you`re a smart guy

[BozeefusIsBack]

thnx

[delorianstar]

no, its the space knight....

[BozeefusIsBack]

good you think that delorian. hes my 2nd ^_^

[krakken242]

dudes got more problems than just cat faced people that need to be uh... kicked in the face..alot... for some peculiar reason he cant seem to stop cramming his daisy duke bikini ass in the screen, i guess he got all embarrassed once he realised how retarded he was acting and then decided to transform into a plane or whatever to try and salvage some shred of coolness. it didnt work. and it made his revolting gesture and outfit even more obvious. I am ashamed. he shames me. I feel plain awkward.

[DarkyDiZZ]

polymar kicksass he is ownage ...his kicks pack more punch then 30 falcon punches fused with 70k chuck norris fists from beard jabs

[natsuboushi33]

=DDDDDDD Oreee waaa Haricaaane Porymaaaaa!!! Oh, so nice =D

[TwilightLink77]

Same as Casshern Hurricane Polymar's OVA came out in the US.

[zokamaru]

was he swearing at the end? I swear he was dissing everyone at 0:58

[dryzen]

That is one of the coolest superhero name shout outs ever. I want to kick cat people in the face now.

[goldenbender]

HUR! RI! CANE!

[MagCannon]

Back in these day it REALLY didn't pay to be a bad guy, don't believe me Just watch this intro and Gatchaman's.

[FuckedYourDad]

lo fuckin l

[mcspoons]

Just looking at all the tatsunoko openings just to learn more about where the capcom vs tatsunoko characters come from...I only recognized Casshan and the G-Force characters from the opening.

[chinocracy]

OK. This was the prototype for Gatchaman.

[SuperAdventures]

"Hurricane Polymar" was created by the same company as "Gatchaman" (Tatsunoko) and came out two years after it did ("Gatchaman": 1972, "Casshern": 1973, "Polymar": 1974, "Tekkaman": 1975)

[Salmo77]

best Animes EVER!!!

[ronquila]

Yes and the same company of the Robotech sagas!

[MashinGar]

You do a great job with all of these Tatsunoko anime shows! Polymar is my favorite, then Tekkaman!

[rilorgio]

GRANDE POLYMAR!!!

From Italy.
