В 192 году по Всесветному Календарю человечество находится на грани исчезновения. Орбитальное Кольцо, составленное из колоссального количества искусственных спутников, было оккупировано непонятными чужеродными формами жизни - радамцами. Людям, оказавшимся на земной поверхности, как на ладони, не уйти от лазеров Орбитального Кольца. Поля запустели, а города - разрушены. Объединенные Силы Обороны Земли не могут справиться с врагом. Земля неуклонно движется к гибели.
Однако, из ниоткуда появляется "Теккамен-Клинок" - человек без имени, памяти и прошлого, закованный в броню - в одиночку делающий то, что не под силу всем армиям планеты Земля...
Emi is a seventeen-year-old girl living in Shibuya. Her father is always away with work and she's grown listless. Suddenly, a twist of fate involving a certain magical item changes everything. A mysterious pencil, of all things, is linked to the appearance of heroes from another world! Could this be the start to the excitement she's so desperately craving, or is there something more?
Ten years have passed since the end of Tekkaman Blade, and a new generation of Tekkaman must confront a powerful new enemy while rebuilding their forces. The main character this time is Yumi Francois, a young and bumbling mechanic who proves the unlikely third candidate for the elite Tekkaman fighting trio. Thrust into battle with very little training, she must earn the trust and confidence of her teammates if she is to succeed and survive.
Tekkaman: The Space Knight is an anime produced by Tatsunoko Productions in 1975. A short-lived English adaptation aired in the US in 1984.
Two decades later, it was followed by the much more popular Tekkaman Blade, which was dubbed in the U.S. by Saban as Teknoman. The original series is currently streaming in North America via Yomiura Group's planned Anime Sols video service, as of spring 2013. However, due to the failure to successfully crowd-fund it for DVD, the show will soon be removed from the site, with the possibility of considering a crowd-funding opportunity in the future.
