''[[God Mazinger]]'' (ゴッドマジンガー, ''Goddo Majingā''), also known as ''Majin Densetsu'' (魔神伝説) is an anime, manga and novel series created by [[Go Nagai]]. Initially it was to going to be the sequel to ''[[Mazinger Z]]'', but the idea was scrapped in favor of creating ''[[Great Mazinger]]'' and ''[[UFO Robo Grendizer]]'', and the concept was fully reworked until it had nothing to do with the original series (still, it is counted between the Mazinger series). The anime aired in 1984 in Nippon Television with 23 episodes. The manga was originally published in tankobon format by Shogakukan in 4 volumes published in 1984. The novelization was published in 1984 and lasted 10 volumes. The three of them share the same basic premise but have a different story.
 
Hibino Yamato is a Japanese [[Ordinary High School Student]] who one day begins to see visions of a strange world and feels something is calling him to a place named Mu. Frightened and confused, Hibino thinks that he had hallucinations.
 
However Mu is a real place, an ancient kingdom located in another dimension and whose civilization reminds of the ancient Greece and Rome.
