The early Mazinger Z manga was published in Weekly Shonen Jump; by the time the manga moved to TV Magazine, it followed a plot more similar to the anime. When the manga was published in volumes there were some issues with the chapter placements as the Jump series did not get a proper ending and later publishes contained chapters from both the original and TV Magazine versions that overlapped each other, leaving out important information from both sides. This continued until a couple decades later where the Mazinger Z manga was given a proper explanation of events along with a final battle against Dr. Hell.

Go Nagai stated that he was inspired by Osamu Tezuka's ''Tesuwan Atom'' (which premiered 20 years before Mazinger Z) and Mitsuteru Yokoyama's ''Testujin 28-go'' (Japan's first Giant Robot series) in his Manga Works series. However, wanting to find a more original idea than what was already used, he got the idea of internally piloting a mecha from observing a traffic jam and the feeling of bypassing that traffic. At first the robot was called [[Energer Z]] and instead of using a hovercraft-like Pilder like the Mazinger, the component was a motorcycle, but Nagai's editor suggested something else due to the popularity of Nagai's former employer [[Shotaro Ishinomori]]'s Kamen Rider metaseries. With this in mind, Nagai redesigned and renamed the mech into the Mazinger Z to evoke the image of a demon god (Ma, meaning demon, and Jin, meaning god).

This article is about the TV Series from the Toei Animation anime series. For the manga by Go Nagai, see Mazinger Z (Nagai).

Mazinger Z (マジンガーZ?) is a TV anime series produced by Dynamic Productions and animated by Toei Animation. It aired on Fuji TV from December 3, 1972 to September 1, 1974, with 92 episodes in total. It is based on the Mazinger Z manga. In September 8, 1974, was aired the sequel: Great Mazinger.

Synopsis

The manga and anime tell the story of the protagonist, Koji Kabuto and the titular mecha Mazinger Z. The Mazinger was created by Koji's grandfather Professor Juzo Kabuto from the discovery of the fictional Japanium and using it to create the powerful and durable Super Alloy Z. It's main purpose was to combat the Mechanical Beasts of Dr. Hell, a former colleague of Professor Kabuto who killed the research team he and Prof. Kabuto were a part of during an expedition in the Greek island Bardos. Prof. Kabuto managed to escape and began his work on the Mazinger and other robots to combat Dr. Hell. Managing to finish it, the professor was killed by a bomb planted by one of Dr. Hell's henchmen, Baron Ashura. Koji noticing the explosion rushes to his grandfather's side. With his dying breath, the professor informs his grandson of the impending danger and gives the Mazinger to him. Koji swearing vengeance on Dr. Hell, becomes the pilot of Mazinger Z and with help from his girlfriend Sayaka Yumi, his younger brother Shiro Kabuto, and some sort of help from Boss, Koji fights against Dr. Hell and his minions.
