Synopsis

I’m GantaGanta lived in his birthplace of Shinshu (Nagano Prefecture) until his parents passed away. Following their death, he was taken in by his aunt and uncle who lived in Tokyo and thus moved to Tokyo. Although the couple had children of their own, they doted on Ganta like their own child. Under their caring eyes, Ganta continued to behave as freely as he did in Shinshu, often involving the local children in minor commotions. While the show is a wholesome drama for children, it sometimes features complex scenes about love between parent and child. Each episode routinely begins with Ganta’s energetic shout, I’m Ganta!, followed by the opening theme song.This television drama for children aired on the Fuji TV network from July 2, 1974, to March 25, 1975. It was a joint production between Fuji TV, Tokyo Eiga, and the Haiyuza Theatre Company. The scripts were written by such writers as Akira Saiga, who was known for the TV drama series Okusama wa 18-sai (My Wife is 18 Years Old). The lead role of Ganta was played by the child actor Shigeyuki Sunouchi. He was selected to star in this production after playing the role of Mon-chan in the tokusatsu (special effects) series Diamond Eye. Maybe because the Haiyuza Theatre Company and Tokyo Eiga, which was later absorbed into Toho, were involved in the production, the regular cast featured Momoko Kochi, the legendary actress of the Showa era, and Ryoichi Tamagawa, who was a predominant comedian at the time.The series also expanded into other media as a manga adaptation. This manga version was illustrated by Mitsuru Adachi who was famous for such works as Touch, and was serialized in the magazine TV Land, published by Tokuma Shoten.
