Prince Planet (1965–1966)
My first taste of Japanimation
22 February 2001
Yes, WSNS TV-44, Chicago used to air this show (they also aired Speed Racer)in the early 70s. I was about six years old and can only liken the impression it had on me to the Power Rangers or Pokemon infatuation of today. The plot basically surrounded a young boy, Bobby, who (somehow) possessed a medallion through which he became the title hero. Of course his identity was secret and each week he would face his arch enemy. I do recall the very catchy theme song containing lyrics "...he fights bad guys, Prince Planet he's the best... Here comes Prince Planet! Yeah!" Really would like to see it again.
