Discotek Media has had some good successes with a lot of the kids anime that they’ve picked up since there’s a built-in fanbase and nostalgia. The latest one is a rescue of the previously distributed ADV Films title Medabots. The company will be bringing out the first of several seasons in 2020 as an SDBD (standard definition Blu-ray) where it’ll contain the first twenty-six episodes. It’ll be in its English language only form with closed captions. A Japanese original version will be coming later separately as the English version was edited for release originally.
Plot Concept: A boy named Ikki Tenrio, using his Medabee, participates in Robattles; fights that square off robots, or ‘Medabots’, against eachother. Ikki must also stop the plans of the nefarious “RubberRobo Gang”.
