What happens
King Kong (キングコング⅐親指トム, Kingu Kongu 00+1⁄7 Oyayubi Tomu), commonly referred to as The King Kong Show, is an American anime-based animated television series produced by Videocraft International and Toei Animation. ABC ran the series in the United States on Saturday mornings between September 6, 1966, and March 4, 1967. It is the first animated series produced in Japan for an American company (not counting Rankin/Bass' previous Animagic stop motion productions, which were also animated in Japan), making it an example of an anime-based work. This series is an animated adaptation of the famous film monster King Kong with character designs by Jack Davis and Rod Willis. It is also the first animated series in the King Kong franchise.
