The 2014 and 2015 series for Toei’s Robot Girls Z has had both of those seasons come out separately before on DVD and Blu-ray and now Toei recently set up for a complete collection release. While we’ve got a bit to go before it arrives we have what looks to be the main cover artwork for it that should delight fans pretty well. The show, clocking in at 133 minutes, is set for January 10th, 2018 priced at 7,000 yen. It’ll have all of the material produced for it on one disc. Extras are to be determined.
The series takes characters from Toei and Dynamic Planning and changes the various giant robots into cute girls for wacky and silly adventures that will delight many and infuriate others. It’ll be directed by Hiroshi Ikehata based on scripts by Kazuho Hyodo with Tetsuya Kawakami doing the character designs at Toei Animation. It stars Kazusa Aranami as Grenda-san, Inori Minase as Gre-chan, Mariko Honda as Z-chan, Sayuri Yahagi as Liga-sama, Maaya Uchida as Gecchan Dragon, Misaki Kuno as Pon-chan, Minami Tsuda as Jeeg-san, Natsumi Koike as Paan-san, Emi Nitta as Raicchi, Kaori Takaoka as Triple Gai-chan, Naomi Ozora as Bal-chan, Emi Hirayama as Shoo-chan, Shiori Mikami as Go-chan, Ari Ozawa as Gai no Jo, Minami Takashi as Bong, Manami Maeda as Gurangen and Ayana Taketatsu as Bossborokko.
Plot concept: Robot Girls Z centers around three girls based on Toei’s famed Mazinger Z franchise: Mazinger Z, Great Mazinger, and UFO Robot Grendizer. The girls go around Tokyo raising awareness about the promising new energy source “Photon Power.” However, when the enemy Mechanical Beast girls appear and attempt to steal the energy, the girls, collectively called “Team Z”, must battle them in order to prevent the Photon Power from being stolen!
