It’s almost time to bring it to a close as next week will bring out the final episode of Marvel Disk Wars – The Avengers from Toei Animation. It’s still largely considered unlikely that this series will make its way stateside for various reasons, especially since it’s aimed at a younger and more Japanese market, but the show has had a lot of fun in working various characters throughout it that haven’t gotten a lot of attention on this side of the Pacific. h is directed by Masato Mikami while Toshiaki Komura did the storyboards and Osamu Ishikawa served as the chief animation director.
The series is produced by Toei Animation, which is a change of pace for Marvel properties in Japan that have largely been done by Madhouse.
Plot concept: Portable capturing devices known as “DISKs” were developed to capture evil villains. However, thanks to Loki’s machinations, both villains and heroes are sealed up in these Disks and scattered around the world. Amid the chaos, five youths obtained the power to restore these DISK-sealed heroes through a program called “Biocode.” These youths received five DISKs that Spider-Man, who narrowly escaped being sealed himself, retrieved. Thus, these five can restore Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, and Wasp — the Avengers!
