What happens

New Getter Robo (新ゲッターロボ, Shin Gettā Robo) is an anime original video animation co-produced by Dynamic Planning and Bandai Visual. The series is a re-imagining of the 1970s manga Getter Robo, created by Go Nagai and Ken Ishikawa, that incorporates aspects of Japanese mythology like the Oni and Abe no Seimei which replaces the Dinosaur and Hyakki Empire present in the original Getter Robo manga.
