タイムボカン
The studio's first production was the 1965 TV series "Space Ace". Since then many figures in the anime industry have worked with Tatsunoko, including Mizuho Nishikubo, Hiroshi Sasagawa, Koichi Mashimo, Katsuhisa Yamada, Hideaki Anno (Tatsunoko provided animation work on the "Neon Genesis Evangelion" TV series), and Kazuo Yamazaki. Sasagawa is notable for bringing his fondness for comedy animation to the forefront in Tatsunoko series such as the "Time Bokan" (1975) franchise. The company later licensed "Macross" to Harmony Gold, who then produced "Robotech".
