Tomica Kizuna Gattai Earth Granner is a 2020 anime series produced by Takara Tomy and OLM based on its Tomica toyline.

Introduction

A television anime produced to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the sale of Takara Tomy's miniature car series , Tomica .

This is the first TV anime based on Tomica since "Tomica Hyper Rescue Drive Head ~Mobile Emergency Police~ (Drive Head)" but while the main theme of "Drive Head" was saving lives, this one is about fighting invaders.

This work was produced as a project to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Tomica's sales, with the aim of creating a robot anime that could be enjoyed by Tomica's main purchasing demographic - children as young as three.

Due to the nature of the genre, robot anime tends to include extreme or scary scenes and complex character relationships, but this work keeps these to a minimum and develops the story in a clear, comical style.

("Drive Head" focuses on detailed depictions of rescue missions, and this is another difference between the two films.)

On the other hand, the series is also aimed at creating an anime that both parents and children can enjoy. One of the attractions of the series is that it keeps viewers entertained by exploring the bonds between the characters, which is reflected in the show's title, and by gradually expanding its worldview from Japan to the world and space.

Toys will be released of each Gao Granner unit, which is equipped with the same transformation and combination system as in the movie , as well as toys of the items the main characters use to transform into Granners and in battle.

Its greatest feature is the " Core Granner Tomica System," which allows users to set and play with "Core Granner Tomica," which play corresponding sounds corresponding to many of the cars. The product lineup is reminiscent of the long-running tokusatsu series (※) that is currently being broadcast directly behind other stations.

  • However, this year's release in the series coincidentally features a (traditional) product lineup that does away with the audio linking of the core small items.

Plot introduction

A mysterious enemy called "Dark Spinner" attacks from space, aiming for "Earth Energy" generated from the rotational energy of the Earth. In order to stop their ambitions, twin brothers Raiga and Kuuga Kudo stand up against them with their sentient machine "Gao Granner".

Characters

One of the main characters of this work. Born on February 2nd, Aquarius. 6th grade elementary school student. 12 years old.

The son of Bariki and Madoka, and is the twin brother of Kuuga. His spiked red hair has yellow mesh in the front.

He usually helps out at Jouno Zoo where Madoka works, together with Kuuga.

One day, guided by the will of Gao Granner Leo , they arrive at the underground base of the Earth defense organization, Earth Granner .

Armed with a set of items secretly developed by his father, he then fights Dark Spinner as Granner R.

One of the main characters of the work. Born on February 2nd, he is an Aquarius. He is 12 years old and in the 6th grade of elementary school.

His family consists of his father Bariki, mother Madoka, and twin brother Raiga.

He has short blue hair cut in a bob with light blue mesh.

One day, guided by the will of Gao Granner Eagle, he arrives at the underground base of the Earth Defense Organization, Earth Granner.

Kakeru Kumaneko
Appears in episode 10, "Attack! Earth Granner Sabre Panther!"

Son of Earth Granner's commander-in-chief, Kumaneko Ikuzou, and older brother of Kumaneko Rin. Born on September 18th, he is a Virgo. He is 14 years old, two years older than Rin.

He has already appeared in the opening, and also appears briefly in episode 1 in a transformed form.

He has a cool and quiet personality.

Ever since he was young, he has been reckless, using and assembling toys and plastic models without reading the instruction manual, but in the end he is a genius in the sense that he is able to master and complete them.

However, he cannot be said to be good at painting. (Autobahn says that his results are "too disappointing.")

Joe Pachero
A cowboy sent from America to fight against Gao Granner Sabre, he transforms into Granner J. Born January 6th, he is a Capricorn. He is 14 years old. He has a cheerful and friendly personality. He also does things at his own pace, sitting on Rin's desk without permission and ruining her collection, and catching people he meets for the first time with a lasso and hugging them. However, he calls everyone on Earth, including Raiga, Kuuga, and Rin, "family" and cares for them.

At first, he is hostile towards Kakeru, and calls him a "traitor" in front of Rin (not knowing that she is Kakeru's sister). During his first deployment, he finds out that Kakeru is Rin's brother, but he says, "The Commander and Rin are my precious family, so Kakeru is family too! I can't fight..." and his fighting spirit wavers. However, he is encouraged by Rin's words, and decides to fight again, and promises Rin that he will definitely bring Kakeru back.
