What does Kesai mean?

Fear is very important for people born in 77-85, especially in 81-84. At that time, when entertainment, news and other TV programs were still underdeveloped, how amazing "Fear" was to us at that time! You know, in 1978, Japan's technology was not very developed, but it brought us classic memories.

background information (quoted from electric donkey)

talk about the development of Japanese feature films:

feature film is the abbreviation of feature film, which is originally made by using special photography technology. From this point of view, the magic films represented by The Lord of the Rings and the unique martial arts films in China can all be regarded as "special films", and even in a sense, all cartoons are out-and-out "special films" ..................................................................................................................... In fact, special films can be said that only in a special country like Japan, a special nation and a special period will they develop and expand. The special film has some disadvantages, such as the high cost reduces the profit of the producer, and the overhead background makes it difficult for the audience to sing. But in fact, this has its inevitable inevitability. After World War II, Japan, as a defeated country, suffered political and economic sanctions, including, of course, culture and entertainment. Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution stipulates that it is impossible to produce entertainment film and television works showing fierce war scenes, which makes it impossible for Japan to launch films like Pearl Harbor or Armageddon to meet the audience's needs in this respect. Therefore, the Japanese can only make the audience get the need to see "war-themed" movies through some overhead backgrounds and characters. The United States can choose World War II and Vietnam War as the background of the war, while Japan has only "invaders from the universe" and "XX organization that wants to rule the world". Because they chose World War II, the evil side became themselves; The United States has its own ace pilots to praise and make a film for their heroes; But Japan can't take a war criminal in the Nanjing Massacre as the prototype of the hero. Therefore, the "just warrior" was completely fictional in the special film, which became a substitute for the "national hero" in the hearts of Japanese (at least children) at that time. At the same time, because the Yamato nation is a combative nation, this also makes the Japanese special film more intense than SUPERMAN and BATMAN in the United States. At that time, because the production level of cartoons was still relatively low, it was not enough to show the fierce battle scene, and the special film became the only choice. Fierce fighting scenes have attracted a large number of Japanese teenagers and even adults, and become a "popular" entertainment. Americans tell people the horror and cruelty of war through war movies, and the war scenes are used as negative teaching materials; However, in Japanese special films, the bloody battle scene is the first, and any educational significance is just "by the way". This is also the reason why Japanese special films are different from American SUPERMAN and other heroic films. They can be unique and have their own living space. In this way, special photography was born in Japan, and gradually grew up .............................................................................................................................................................. Masquerade knight series; Ultraman superman series. The dinosaur Tejikesai was one of the Japanese dinosaur trilogy at that time, and China only introduced Kesai at that time.

from 1974 to 1975, Leo Altman produced by Yuangu Company suffered an unprecedented failure in ratings, and the Japanese economic crisis caused by the oil crisis caused a sharp decline in the company's benefits. After the broadcast of Leo Altman, Yuangu was unable to undertake the production of a special film like Altman, which required a lot of models and special effects. However, at that time in the 197s, special films were in fierce competition, and different types and themes emerged one after another. Especially, the series of masked superman and super team of Dongying Company won high praise, not to mention the series of super robots in animation industry were also competing for the market with special films. If Yuangu Company doesn't do something, the result of waiting for him will undoubtedly be squeezed out of this lucrative market.

Therefore, during the four-year adjustment period from 1976 to 198, Yuan Gu made a number of special photography works alone or in cooperation with other companies, which not only showed the audience that they were "still alive" in the special photography field, but also tried new creative ideas and techniques in different themes. One of the unique series is the dinosaur trilogy. The first work, The first work, "Fear of exploring the team" (1976, 25 episodes) and the second work, "Fear of fighting" However, among the audience, there is still a big voice of "wanting to see a complete special photo". Therefore, according to the experience of the first two works, in the planning of the third work, Yuangu decided to return to the special photos that all used real people and models to perform.

At the beginning, the creative work was handed over to Hideyoshi Nagano, who had a cooperative relationship with Yuangu (once participated in the script writing of Jack Altman and Aesop Altman). At that time, he was working on the creation of "Time and Space Guard-Dinosaur Age" originally intended to be published as a cartoon, and he proposed to adapt it based on this comic story. This suggestion was adopted. Although the creative work was handed over to Qian Zhenxian for some reasons, in the whole planning process of the Kesai, except for some details, the story setting in the original comic book was basically maintained, and it was renamed as "Terror Team".

Get to the point

One day in p>21, Japan was attacked by ultra-low temperature and ultra-high temperature rays of unknown origin. The Space-Time Administration, which was in charge of the various historical periods of the earth, found out that the reason for the abnormal change was in the Cretaceous period 7 million years ago. So the warrior of the era, headed by Captain Banno, set out for that magical dinosaur era on the large-scale time ship "Kesai". There, they met artaxias, an alien princess who fled her hometown, and her attendant robot Gee, as well as the mysterious cosmic invader-the plant life Gedemis ... < P > The whole 52-episode story is divided into two parts, with episodes 1-28 being against Gedemis, an invader who tried to occupy the earth, and episodes 1-13 being centered on the struggle for a secret post with a secret plan to defeat Gedemis. Episodes 29-52 return to the original policing mission of the Time and Space Administration, and the enemies have become various careerists, criminal groups using time machines for criminal activities, invaders of unknown origin and so on. In the 4th episode, the title was changed to "The Horror Team". The human cannon "コセィダー", and according to the opinions of the audience at that time that the leading role was too active and the supporting role was too monotonous, some distinctive roles were arranged in the pros and cons of each episode.
