From the TV anime “Getter Robo Arc”, the synopsis and sneak peek from episode 8 “Blood of Dragons, Heart of Man” (broadcast on Sunday, August 22) have been released.

“Getter Robo Arc” is the first anime adaptation of the final chapter of the “Getter Robo Saga”, which depicts the three young men and their robots fighting against the enemy that threatens the future of the earth and humanity with their steel bodies and flaming souls.
Under the direction of director Kawagoe Atsushi, who worked on “Shin Getter Robo vs Neo Getter Robo” and “New Getter Robo”, the animation will be produced by Bee Media of the OVA “Getter Robo” series and studio A-CAT of “Soukou Musume Senki”.

In episode 8, the Arc team will be under the command of the Dinosaur Empire until Operation Jura Dead is put into action. Even though the members are discontent with that, there is no other way for Takuma but complying with the order as he is curious about Kamui’s true intention.

On the other hand, Tachibana Sho heads to the battlefield to identify the black Shin Getter. In the Dinosaur Empire, a ceremony to pray for the success of the Operation Jura Dead is going to be held. After Takuma is told about the past of Kamui by Professor Han, he attempts to make a plan for Kamui and Kamui’s mother to be united without concern.
