"Yatterman" is one of those 1970s anime series that's recently been revived for a generation that wasn't alive when it was first aired.

It involves a pair of technically adept teen superheroes who thwart the villainous Dorombo Gang in their quest for the legendary Skull Ring, which gives the person who wears it unbelievable wealth.

"Yatterman Genteiban (Yatterman Limited Edition)" (Nihon TV, Monday, 7 p.m.), a special one-hour episode, features none other than Monta Mino, Japan's busiest emcee, in his cartoon debut.
