Synopsis "Shin Mazinger Zero 01 (in Spanish)"

El mundo ha llegado a su fin. La civilización ha sido borrada de un plumazo por la mano de un dios creado por el hombre: ¡Mazinger Z! Solamente queda con vida un hombre arrepentido: Koji Kabuto. La misma persona que no se atrevió a pilotar el robot antes de que fuera demasiado tarde... Esta nueva versión del gran clásico del manga y anime tiene una historia hiperviolenta con un dibujo moderno pero manteniendo los diseños originales. En sus páginas se encuentran muchos guiños a la obra original. Hay tambiénnúmerosos cameos de personajes de otras obras de Go Nagai, mezclando así grandes escenas de acción, realidades paralelas, momentos cargados de sensualidad, dilemas existenciales y mucho gore para salpicar las retinas.
