Tranzor Z opening - The First One on YouTube

[realmanallen73]

THIS was cartoons were actually worth watching. lol. That would also include Voltron (Lion AND Vehicle Teams), The (Original) Transformers, The Mighy Orbots, GI Joe, and M.A.S.K.

[ceoram]

No mamen, desmadraron el intro, nada que ver con el feeling de la versión japonesa.

[erich8571]

I loved this show so much it would come on the spanish channel and I would still watch it. This and Star Blazer were my all time favorite cartoons in the 80's.

[chillg1]

@erich8571 excatly in chicago it came on channel 44 the spanish channel an i still watch it

[spadehatesscrewtube]

this would be ultimate cool if gatchaman didnt exist first.

[hwoarang2001]

This was shown on USA (now USA networks) under the headliner if cartoon express. Fuck I feel old for remembering this shit.

[OLDSCHOOLHHSEX]

Anybody remember The SHOGUN WARRIOR ROBOTS 1970'S toys which looked kind of like this robot,and had guest appeared in MARVEL Fantastic Four comic book? those 3 SHOGUN WARRIOR ROBOTS toys are worth a lot of money on Ebay if anybody can still find them,or even parts of the Shogun Warriors like the strong spring-loaded missles that could shoot all the way across a room !-most spring loaded toys after 1980's was made weak to where projectiles couldnt launch to put your eye out

[MrVizFact]

This shit is very, very, old school.

[danramirez420]

@jayham28...I remember that girl robots boobs were missiles...me and my sisters laughed everytime she just fired off one

[jayham28]

This was the cartoon where the girls robots boobs were the missles. O.O

[phoniexExia]

At the end of the intro was Great Mazinger not Mazinger Z.

[ErickDamon]

@phoniexExia Haha I never noticed that.

[007EVK]

Ohh...my....friggin....lmao...­tranzor zeeeeeeeeeeee! I used to love this series....nothing but a smile on my face at the age of 40...right now. How's that for the 80''s.

[Lusus420]

Man....I VAGUELY remember this!

It makes me wonder: What friggin' TV station showed this???

[heronatoin]

encerio tengo que buscar al imbecil que deformazingo esto para apedrearlo y apalearlo haber si se le caen los huevos del coraje

[xMazingerZ]

Por que cambiar el nombre de Mazinger Z?

[JEPDLVS01]

It would have been better the original Mazinger Z instead of this bastardization.

[CyberPirate83]

Tranzor Z vs. Voltron. Good match.

[tipon2]

wa cosè sta schifezza??



[ShuHibiki]

"TRAZOOOOORRRR ZEEEEEEEEE!" *Great appears instead of Z*

Good job.

[TheDURACELL6969]

perche gli americani lo hanno chiamato tranzor?? il vero nome cioè mazinga non andava bene??? e perchè nei titoli di apertura ce scritto 3b production, e bunke jenkis?? cosa ha fatto costui oltre a rovinare il cartoon cambiando nome??? come al solito gli americani devono rubare le idee atruii !

[nate2eliminate]

Its mazinger z right?

[madassgamer]

1:10 Great Mazinger?

[JPW383]

i used to love watching this as a kid, but for some reason i only recall ever seeing the very first episode and and another episode where somewhere in between... he moves out of the way and the robots kill eachother. They didn't show enough of this show in the 80's.

[Pizzacutta]

All I can remember is titty rockets

[MikeTaylorLives]

Those of us who grew up with him in the 1970's knew him by his proper name-- Mazinger Z. Mattel imported him, Danguard Ace, Getter Robo, Raydeen, Gaiking and a few others as the Shogun Warriors. Godzilla and Rodan were added to the line as monsters for the robots to fight.

[REDEYETV]

had the toy

[simoshingo]

Why? Why? :(

[slimhood69]

i remember this...

[megamus]

The only problem with this show was the opening narrator who stated he cannot be destroyed. I never worried about Tranzor Z being destroyed!!!

[Expeditionwithbass]

Looks like an old version of Big O.

[7gemini5]

yeah but where can i download the tranzor z english dub episodes for the kids.. can anyone help me out..

[tamiasthechipmunk]

I remember this show as a Kid.

[irobot2009able]

that's right hes one bad mother ------

[MrGrifter123]

man we couldn't catch this in louisiana when we would take trips to Houston Tx I would watch this... this was awesome brings back childhoohood memoris i been lookin for this all over

[sportsdude18111]

This show the shit as a kid

[kingovmyself]

I wish my girlfriend had missile titties.

[jjcoco79]

whoa, holy 80s, awesome

[madrecka]

I think that Transor Z would defeat Voltron.

[wotaj]

HOLY CRAP! HE JUST PUNCHED THAT DRAGON'S HEAD OFF!  =O

[MDthornton83]

@wotaj Yep. Even in its edited state, this show was pretty brutal.

[MDthornton83]

@wotaj Yep. Even in the uncencored version, this show was pretty hardcore.

[donalddarko2007]

Haha What the fuck is Tranzor Z?¿ Fucking Gringos!

[drevsdre9]

Lol. My God I had the toy as a kid. Used to hit my sister with the ejectable fists

[phimseto]

@drevsdre9 I didn't have a sister but if I did, I probably would have done the same. My giant-size Tranzor Z, Godzilla, and Rodan toys were prized possessions!

[25mfd]

@drevsdre9 That's solid!!! LOL!!!!!

[Psycomantis1]

YAY! BOOB ROCKETS!

[Timario007]

voltron would eat this dude up and SHIT OUT GOBOTS

[CarnorJax1]

@Timario007 Your high Voltron would get owned!

[Timario007]

@CarnorJax1 boy STOP!!!!

[CarnorJax1]

@Timario007

[CarnorJax1]

@Timario007 He's so powerful he can't be destroyed! OWNED! He has more powers,etc. END OF STORY!

[Timario007]

@CarnorJax1 ok yeah i'll let u and ya imagination have this argument

[CarnorJax1]

@Timario007 Whatever 

[teddyrubskin]

@Timario007 Fugg'n Right!!

[me0on0utube]

LOL, its funny everyone remembers Aphrodite A. I remember how the robot's breast rocket sizes kept changing. At one times shes a regular size, next she's flat chested and the ones i really remember were the triple D bombs she was carrying. Thinkin bout it now is hilarious...LOL

[bondagebreaker7]

That was pornographic back in the 80's

[SisforSachiel]

"A protector of peace so powerful it can never be destroyed!"

And then came Great Mazinger and Mazinkaiser.

[MajCinematic]

I have not seen this since I was like 6 or 7 I think......wow.

[BansheeMilk]

The rocket boobs blew me away. I tell people about it and they often don't believe me.

[ProblematikGTX]

wow, you guys see that? IT'S IN 3-B.... D:

[TexasNova]

Wow I remember this yea 25 yrs ago. But mainly the girl bot that shot rocket boobs

[rachelvictoriasarah]

Great Mazinger being in there isn't a screw up. It made an appearance in multiple episodes and in half of the feature "film" VHS due to cut content. :)

[seanj666]

I rember this use to come on after Voltron and all I remeber thinking even as a kid that this is a low rent Voltron and not nearly as cool lol. But, because I was a kid I watched it anyway. Ah to be a kid in the 1980's

[rrw1981]

I used to watch this cartoon overseas when I was a kid. My dad was in the Army. We were in germany. This was one of the few shows that was in English. I loved this show, especially the rocket fists!

[AtorTheFlyingEagle]

@rrw1981 Funny. I have the same memory. I remember taping episodes when my dad was stationed in Aschaffenburg, Germany back in 84,85,86.

[jjlb333]

Man, this the first time ive seen this in 25 years! AWESOME!

[KeithWasHere1]

i remember catching this ever-day back in like 84 or 85

[NihilisticToast]

IN STEREO SOUND!? Oh snap!

[Vanngamer79]

I remember this cartoon from my days as a kid! It was awasome!

[gmt62]

Mazinger>Tranzor

[Gitiffan]

@gmt62 So true, Tranzor was such a let down. I guess you can say that was all due to the US censorship. Mazinger Z was one of many giant cartoon robots I always waited to watch after school, when I used to live in the Philippines.

[starofjustice1]

@gmt62

Why?

[doctorsizzle]

WOW. my father was in the Air Force, stationed in the Philippines. I watched this all the time. the best cartoon ever.

also used to watch Diamos.

[NateSean]

Eh. I suppose it worked for the time, but I'll stick with Voltron.

[81carlos]

I had a Tranzor/Mazinger toy when I was a kid.It was a pretty big toy.About a foot tall from what I remember.Thanks for the upload and the memories.

[heronatoin]

cagaron muchos intros como este de mazinger z cagaron a naruto cagaron a medabots que mas van a cagar ahora

[gigadred]

que basura, de traduccion , realmente le robaron a los US el encanto de MAZINGER Z,,, asi se llama

[deatheven13]

I would give up my left nut to get the old vhs tape that was at a video store nearby when I was growing up.

Had like the first 12 episodes of the glorious english dub.

[asykes9]

I don't know why i remember a female character that used to shoot missiles from her tits.....isn't this the cartoon?

[81carlos]

@asykes9 Yup...Seems that's what everybody seems to remember...

[brinpol]

Americans had to screw up every theme song back then. Thank God the dubbing of shows has gotten much better.

[Silverknite1]

This is like Ultraman Great... But worse. Us Americans ruin everything.

[ghetty78]

Damn i was in the second grade when this shit came out! Rocket punch!

[Mickothebest]

"TRANZOOOOOOOOOOOR ZEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

Sucks compared to Mazinger, but the way that guy shouts Tranzor Z is hilarious.

[andoc]

God... those sound effects, the guy shouting Tranzor Z... it's... it's fucking horrible. I'm so glad I got the real version of Mazinger when I was a kid.

[supersaninpikachu]

WTF. Why was it that TRANZOR made more sense then MAZINGER to them?!

[vjmlhds]

@supersaninpikachu

Tranzor sounds more...robot-like.

More Americanized, and cooler looking on a box with a toy Tranzor Z than Mazinger.

[1okolawol]

why did they change it to tranzor whats wrong with mazinger?

[dsfdotnet]

wow, when I first saw this as a kid it was on a spanish language channel, I think that why I picked up spanish so quickly.

[DevSodDribble]

I love when he fires the rockets from his elbows; How many times have you wanted to just do that to some aggravating asshole?? In line at the grocery store, for example.

[blackfreedommilitia]

OMG!. I remember living New Jersey as kid when i saw this in 1985 and never again since i moved that year. I was obsessed with this cartoon. couldnt get enuff. .. and those missle titties. i couldnt beleive they did that. those tits lotta bark no bite.

[RigTig16]

I REMEMBER THE THE FEMALE ROBOT WITH THE BOOBY MISSILES AND HER USING IT ON RAPID FIRE ONCE.  MY FRIEND SAND ME LAUGHED OUR HEADS OFF AT IT.

[casanovafly2000]

man u remember when they show use to come on sundays and the chick that short her boobs off as missle that didnt hurt a damn thing lol

[cannonfodder4000]

Anyone notice Great Mazinger at the end? I wonder if they ever fixed that. XD

[CrusaderGundam]

OOOO FUCKIN SHIT THEy FUCKING MAED IT A FUCKIN KIDDY SHOW shitzafuckinFUCKFUCK I cant watch it it sucks so bad Aarrrrggghh!!!!

[cannonfodder4000]

Mazinger Z was always a kid show. >.>

[asher83n]

awesome! i have been looking for this for years, love it..........TRANZOR Z

[eklera]

OMG! This is the one with the chick robot that has boob missiles!!

[jevansturner]

I remember the show, but I definitely don't remember the intro.

[shalpp]

TIT MISSILES

[roadrunnerBobcat]

OMG, this was the ISH back in the day. I remember watching Tranzor Z after school and my mom hated it.

[Timbrock1000]

From the minds of mortal men, the mightiest of machines .....NISSAN Z!!! ........With all the might, to fight for right. An engine so reliable, it cannot be destroyed. ....NISSAN Z!!!

[RealDealRob69]

I had a friend who had a toy of this robot and he wasnt small lol

[LoRukeEX]

That's Great Mazinger at the end

[menswear2112]

Was this before or after Goldorak?

[cjgyt98]

I'M GOING TO SHOW THIS TO MY FRIENDS WHO DIDN'T REMEMBER THIS ONE!!!! THEY THOUGHT I WAS TRIPPIN!!!!!!! HAH HAH

[cjgyt98]

I ALSO REMEMBERED BETTER GRAPHICS

[cjgyt98]

AWW MAN!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS I FOUND THIS!!!!!! EVERYTIME WE HAVE THAT OLD CARTOON CONVERSATION I BRING UP TRANZOR Z. I NEVER FIND ANYONE WHO REMEMBERS. THE MISSILE BREAST, THE ROCKET FIST, AND I REMEMBERED THE BO BO BOT TOO! HE WAS THE CLUMBSY ROBOT...WOW!! LOL

[blackfreedommilitia]

@cjgyt98 I know man, when i moved back to chicago, I was still charged from this show, but noone could ever relate. its as if it was just a fantasy cartoon of mine or somethin. so i see dragonball z on tv and i think ooooh lemme search the original TRanzor Z. low n behold....after 25 years.. im tearing up.

[sirjaystarr]

Wow memories, this is great. Thanks for posting.

[gap12jazz]

hehe...Transor Z is Mazinger Z rip off,better be original,baby...!

[Zuggaron]

@gap12jazz transor z is the dub version of mazinger z not a rip off ...

[Kapatan]

Tranzor Z looks overweight

[NuevaRomay]

MAZINGER Z!!!!!!!

[CHURINFUNFLAIS]

I grew up with the entire seasons(Trans in Spanish-Italian!), they were killer and after that the Great Mazzinger series fighting the Mikene empire...good old memories!

[Takeshi357]

I keep thinking about how virtually every other country in the world kept the original music and opening animation, only translating the lyrics at most - while USA did, well, THIS.

[shakymworld]

I grew up on this....but i remember it having better graphics...um,,,lol..i love it,

[hatfieldd]

before voltron before transformers before the gobots before power rangers there was tranzor z baby

[kelbrew75]

@hatfieldd And Tranzor Z was da bomb!!

[gemini6179]

Thanks for the upload. This is the very first cartoon I remembered watching as a youngster. It brings me back so much memories.

[carnut015]

Oh, the memories. I remember never missing an episode of this show if I could at all help it. Could be the reason I love giant robots to this day!

[TheStupedCat]

 Great show ..Havent seen it in years , Thanks for Posting..

[d3nathor]

yea bionic tetas is what i remember from this great cartoon.

[TheAnthonydel]

@d3nathor ME TOO!!! LMAO LMAO LMAO

[AtomicElbowDrop]

Tanzor Z is OP

[riccorich]

i remeber this ch 20 WDCA 1985-86

[NinjaGhostScorpion]

@riccorich Damn, you're from the DC-viewing area, too?! What are the odds?

[bostonfan79]

This was one of the best cartoons back in the day :) don't get me wrong cuz voltron kicked ass as well but all you needed for Trazor Z to activate him was pilot the hubbercraft and fly it to the top of his head

[DANIELandNADIA050]

WHAT IS THIS ???? i am PuertoRican thank God , and i have to ask WHAT IS THIS ??????

[MarcusDolby]

I have an entirely different appreciation for the show as an adult when I think back to Tranzor's female counterpart's boob rockets. :)

[DoctorPretorious616]

@MarcusDolby Her name was Aphrodite A, that's one of the main things I remember about this show too! You can thank creator Go Nagai for that wonderful bit of uniquely Japanese anime perversity.

[drbayoms]

@MarcusDolby

I know huh? How in the hell were they able to pull that off?

[pcelf]

My fave was his female counter part, but I watched it Japan in the 70's.

[D3MOL1T1ON]

from the minds of mortal men.... TRANZOR Z .. i wish i was a kid again

[thetalented1]

Oh, how I miss the Rocket Punch...

[Mastermind8908]

Reading wiki on the US translation (back in the day), it says that the robot breast scene was cut very short and rarely showed it. So how come I remember it so clearly as if it was in every episode? Just because it was missile boobies? I didn't think I was that pervy back then.

[Stimchi]

@Mastermind8908 boobbies flyin in the air are permanent memories......i remember them also

[kevin1278]

@Mastermind8908 ~In my "kid memory", I always thought they were titty drills.

[jruperro]

@Mastermind8908 I have the same feeling I could've sworn it happened every episode,,,but now that I think about it I remember my friends and I being upset the times it didnt happen. Her name was Aphrodite A btw.

[supersaninpikachu]

@Mastermind8908 It was one of the pioneering tropes of Mecha, thats why, most mecha series have it now a days.

[ss4kronos33]

@Mastermind8908 i remember seeing it all the time as well

[Mastermind8908]

@ss4kronos33 Were you watching it is the US in the 80s too?

[Mastermind8908]

I missed this show. Years back I came across a subtitle translation, very low quality but still readable so possibly a bootleg, of the original Mazinger Z of Japan. It was every unedited episode of the original robot up to his destruction and Super 'Tranzor Z' took over. Still feels good to see it again.

[delicia11]

OMG!!!!! I never thought I'd see him again!!

[luvdocta76]

THIS SHOW BRINGS ME BACK

[Kweestyaye]

I used to think this show was sooooooo lame compared to my 'Gobots!' back in the day. But it was my big sister who knew this show, and that surprised me, well, because I didn't know she liked cartoon robots. Apparently, there were cartoon robots before Gobots and Transformers and Voltron...

[USAJungleGym]

kickassssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-ManTis

[valleric]

Oddly they thought we couldn't handle the Mazinger story lines, but Aphrodite A's boob missiles were just fine...

[Gat720Dua]

Uh, why is great mazinger (or great tranzor) is in the opening?

[fibreoptik]

TRANZORRRR ZZeeeee!! :D

[vlawd5]

this show blew balls, i was pissed they took ultraman off for this. he always got his ass kicked at the beginning & came back at the end not to mention he didnt start flying till the show was damn near over. the girl had titty missles i was like 8 or 9 at the time so that was the best part

[TheRayvolution]

@vlawd5 LMFAO I always talk about her titie missiles!

[MrMaxguy]

@vlawd5 Ultraman Won pretty much every fight. SHWUATCH!

[oooohsnaaaap]

All I remember from this is that the lady Tranzor shot boob missiles from her chest.

[manofsan]

Goldorak was the french dub of UFO Robot Grandizer.

The pilot of Tranzor Z / Mazinger Z was Tommy / Koji, and he actually shows up in Goldorak /Grandizer as the sidekick buddy of the main hero Actarus / Duke Fleed who pilots Goldorak / Grandizer. So it's actually the same character in both shows.

[2199]

@manofsan Never herd of Goldorak/Grandizer. They never showed it were I lived.

[DJFAMDaniel]

@2199 I'm surprised anyone remembers this show. It was my first favorite cartoon,but my dad only recorded like 3 episodes of it that i watched over and over again.I wasn't alive when it actually aired.

[starsiegeplayer]

@Eyeblades Actually, "Transor Z" is not Great Mazinga. It's Mazinger Z, the predecessor to Great Mazinger. They look very similar because Great was a next generation design. For some crazy reason, Great is shown at 1:10.

[Lightman0359]

I stumbled across this looking at voltron. I couldnt remember the name of this show, I loved this as a kid, seeing this made my day

[moonabys]

looks just like goldorak

[ryoga316]

@moonabys It's Goldorak's predecessor.

[infinitycrops]

I have fond memories of watching this show in the mornings during the late 70s/80s. Tranzor Z was such a badass LOL

[ricantomatoe]

@infinitycrops U DAM RIGHT

[ATVotom]

I too, remember the breast missiles of Aphrodite-A.

[i80skid]

@ATVotom I remember the breast missiles airing in the US as a kid too.

[amyarceefusion2000]

Why does Tranzor Z look like Voltron? O_o

[BigtimeGenius]

@amyarceefusion2000 I suggest Lasik Eye Surgery for you my friend. How do you figure Tranzor Z looks like Voltron? Which part of Tranzor Z resembles multicolored lions folded into arms, legs, and a chest?

[amyarceefusion2000]

@BigtimeGenius I mean like the color. The COLOR reminds me of Voltron. BTW about the eye surgery I had 2 when I was little.

[MazeleyFanClub]

Well I don't know the exact year, probably around 1984, but the breast missiles aired more than once in the US.

[storm14k]

@MazeleyFanClub I saw it as well.

[rafa10454]

this music is awful. the spanish/japanese music was epic. this is generic hero music.

[SirMac27]

I was in kindergarten in 83 and I was debating with a classmate about who would win, Voltron or Tranzor! This was awesome! I loved this show, even though I look back on the cheese-factor involved. As Sweetlovingkind said it made kids want to be kids!

[contact1araya]

Dude US sensorship is gay, in the original Mazinger Z, there was destruction, death and a robot that could shoot breast missiles ALL edited away in US's Tranzor Z
