Trivia

This was the only Filmation production which was outsourced to be animated overseas, by a Japanese studio called Tokyo Movie Shinsha (TMS). Filmation found itself working on too many new projects simultaneously and found itself forced to break it's own rules.

User Reviews

One of Filmations best

This cartoon series is the new version similar to Guy Williams Zorro. Characters that look identical to 1958 Zorro and a good introduction to this great hero.

Don Diego is secretly Zorro by night, and with his loyal sidekick red rider Miguel, they fight for freedom of their people against the tyranny of captain Ramon.

The anime for a Filmation animation is great for its time, the fencing looks handwritten and printed on real fencing masters. And I remember as a kid it was interesting to see Zorro have a sidekick Miguel. This series knew what they were doing and did it brilliantly. 10/10
