Professor Kaneda, who thinks that he has lost his son during the heavy bombing of Tokyo during WWII, builds a robot, Tetsujin, to replace him. The robot is an ultimate fighting machine, and to keep it out of the wrong hands, Kaneda hides the robot on an island. Years later, the professor's protégé, Shikishima, makes 28 attempts to reanimate the robot before he is finally successful. Tetsujin goes on to join forces with Kaneda's son Shotaru, a young detective, to fight the good fight against the forces of evil. Volume 2 contains five full episodes. In these episodes, the American mafia travel to Japan with hopes of claiming the valuable robot, but are quickly run away by Shotaro. Meanwhile, Kenji Murasame is playing for the other side, trying to help the Americans until he finds out they might not be looking out for him. In a sudden shift, Murasame decides to help Shotaro, but whether he can be trusted remains to be seen. [More]
