Day 26: Speed Racer (Mach GoGoGo)







Mach GoGoGo, which centered on automobile racing, was first created and designed by anime pioneer Tatsuo Yoshida (1932–1977) as a manga series in the 1960s and made the jump to TV as an anime series in 1967. The English rights to Mach GoGoGo were acquired by American syndicator Trans-Lux. The main character Gō Mifune was given the name "Speed Racer" in the English version. It was adapted into a live action film, written and directed by the Wachowski brothers, who also serve as co-producers, in 2008.
