my buddy posted this on another forum to explain:
| Quote: | As an anime addict I can help you out a bit. Its based off an old Anime. OLD OLD Anime... mid 70's I only ever saw it on reruns and old triple recorded vhs.
Its come a long way.
Yeah I can't believe I forgot to post that trailer. I posted it on a few forums I visit and I guess I just forgot to post it here.
The film looks to be so damn vibrant in its filmography... just makes me sad when I see alot of american films... just wow... its damn pretty. Lots of style.
The anime was called Casshan. Heres' a brief story synopsis from the opening episode of the anime... the movie no doubt will be pretty different although it will have some major things the same.
Quote:
Benevolent scientist Higashi Koutaro has created the ultimate artificial humanoid. He hopes one day he can create a race of pollution free androids that can assist humankind with tasks that are too hazardous, strenuous or dangerous for normal humans. Higashi finishes work on a set of four androids, the most intelligent and capable being the one designated BK-1.
One evening a violent storm hits the region where Higashi’s family home and laboratory resides. A stray lightening bolt hits BK-1, activating its circuitry. The android comes online and immediately sets up its own warped agenda. Calling itself Burai King Boss (sometimes referred to also as Black King), he rebels against Dr. Higashi and nearly kills him and his family. Higashi, along with his young son Tetsuya, escape down into the basement of the home. Burai King Boss soon activates his three other brethren, and departs to raise an army of robots and androids to conquer humanity.
Burai King Boss’ first target is a nearby village, where Tetsuya’s girlfriend Kozuki Runa lives. During the attack Runa is nearly killed. She is saved by Tetsuya’s Great Dane, Lucky who heroically saves her, however Lucky is fatally wounded in the process.
Runa brings Lucky back to Tetsuya’s home where Dr. Higashi and Tetsuya have been watching the events. Wracked with guilt Dr. Higashi is tormented by all the destruction his creation is causing.
Dr. Higashi decides to test out an experimental process he has been working on to bring Lucky back to life. Using a Mind Transferring Machine, Dr. Higashi is able to transfer the conscious (or “Life Data”) of Lucky from his damaged body and into a new mechanical body. The transfer is successful and Lucky becomes the Android Dog named Friender.
Tetsuya suggests to his father that he use the machine on him to turn him into a Neo-Roid (New Android) so that he can destroy BK-1 and his legions. After much debate, Dr. Higashi gives in and Tetsuya willingly gives up his humanity to become the Android known as Casshan.
With his new Neoroid Body and his new found abilities and Tetsuya wages a one-man war against the Andro Army of Burai King Boss.

I'm glad you asked for more, hearty Adventurers like yourself often don't fail to live up to par! We've determined you're spamming the f**k out of the forums and [we] think you should stop.
