Over the past few years, legendary anime studio Tatsunoko Production have done quite a lot of reimagining to their classic shows. 2008's Casshern Sins moved the cybernetic superhero into a post-apocalyptic world, while 2013 turned the world of Science Ninja Team Gatchaman on it's head with the social-media influenced world of Gatchaman Crowds . With 2015 heralding the 40th anniversary of Tatsunoko's Time Bokan franchise, it's time for 1970s series (and most popular franchise instalment)  Yatterman to receive similar treatment. Yatterman Night brings the timeline long after the original series, featuring a brand new cast as well as a brand new spin. This time it's the Doronbow Gang's time in the spotlight.

Besides being a ridiculously fun fighting game, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom for the Nintendo Wii opened my eyes to a whole load of classic anime franchises from the legendary studio Tatsunoko . And in recent years, a lot of them have had new lives breathed into them with brand new interpretations - in 2008 there was the utterly fantastic Casshern Sins , and then in 2013 came the more mixed Gatchaman Crowds . In 2015, it's Yatterman 's turn. Created in celebration of the 40th anniversary of the Time Bokan franchise (of which Yatterman was the second instalment of), Yatterman Night   (or  Yoru no Yatterman as its known in Japan) looks to equally turn the classic 1970s series completely on its head.
