ANIMEmusic

Soar on a retro-style grand, imaginative adventure with the dramatic orchestral music to the new TV anime series, Tetsujin 28! Lovingly composed by Akira Senju (Saiyuki: Requiem, Mobile Suit Victory Gundam), this 20-track CD captures and evokes the wonders of a bygone era from yesteryear, where remote controlled, jet propelled giant robots fight against crime and villains. From the nostalgic main theme song to the highly polished symphonic canvas conceived by composer Senju, this soundtrack is sure to delight both old-school anime fans of "Gigantor" and newcomers alike.

Music from the new anime series directed by Yasuhiro Imagawa (Giant Robo)
"Tetsujin 28" DVD available and released by Geneon Entertainment
Full-color insert booklet with song lyrics and composer profile translated into English
"Tetsujin 28" is a cultural icon in Japan, spawning apparel, videogames, stationary, toys, and other merchandise and is long revered by U.S. fans as one of the definitive anime classics in the same company as "Astro Boy," "Kimba" and "Speed Racer."
