Mazinkaizer SKL 2010

Overview

Mazinkaizer SKL is a Japanese original video animation spinoff based on Go Nagai's Mazinkaiser, which was itself a spinoff of Mazinger Z. The first episode of the science fiction, animation, and action production was released and first screened on November 27, 2010. The Skull Force in the series is divided into two squadrons, including the two-member Death Caprice Squad. This squad is composed of Ken Kaidou and Ryou Magami, who serve as the pilots of the Mazinger called Mazinkaizer SKL. Ken Kaidou is one of the two main pilots and the other half of the Death Caprice Squad, described as a man with a mysterious past who is very skilled with handguns and takes control of SKL to use its Breast Triggers in battle. The franchise also includes a novel adaptation serialized in ASCII Media Works' Dengeki Hobby Magazine and a manga adaptation published in the mobile phone magazine Shu 2 Comic Gekkin. Like Shin Mazinger Shougeki! Z Hen, characters and references to other works by Go Nagai appear in the series.
