Considered to be [[Trope Codifier|THE granddaddy]] of the [[Super Robot Genre]], '''''Mazinger Z''''' is the first entry of the ''Mazinger'' trilogy. The first manga version was serialized in ''Shueisha Weekly [[Shonen Jump]]'' from October 1972 to August 1973, and it later continued in ''Kodansha'' TV Magazine from October 1973 to September 1974. In December 1972, the anime version premiered on Fuji Television. The TV series ended September 1, 1974. A second manga series was released alongside the TV show, this one drawn by Gosaku Ota, which started and ended almost at the same time of the TV show.
''Mazinger Z'' tells the story of young [[Hot-Blooded]] [[Idiot Hero]] Kouji Kabuto, grandson of a genius professor named Juuzou Kabuto. The Professor secretly built a [[Humongous Mecha]] named Mazinger Z, to battle the forces of evil—led by his rival gone [[Mad Scientist|mad]], Dr. Hell. Unfortunately, Juuzou gets assassinated quickly, but he still manages to inform Kouji about his creation. The Professor tells him to take over, but warns him that he could become "a God or a Devil" with its power.
