Tetsuwan Birdy Decode: Soulanime - A Reboot of a Classic Series

The Tetsuwan Birdy series has been around for decades, with its first manga installment created by Yuuki Masami and published in Shounen Sunday Super magazine. The original series was well-received and even adapted into a four-part OVA. However, it wasn't until several years later that the series saw a reboot with Tetsuwan Birdy Decode: Soulanime.

The new series follows the story of Yuuki, who decided to start from scratch and revise the entire series rather than continuing where it left off. The original manga was created by Yuuki Masami, who is also known for his work on Mobile Police Patlabor. The series has been remade into a 13-part TV series, which I was excited to watch.

I first watched the original OVA back in 1997 and fell in love with its surrealistic sci-fi premise. As a fan of the original Birdy the Mighty, I was eager to see what the new series had in store. The story revolves around Birdy and Senkawa, who must navigate cohabiting the same body while balancing their respective lives.

The series follows Birdy as she joins a modeling agency, taking on the identity 'Shion Arita,' while pursuing intergalactic criminals by night. Her alter ego, Cephon Altera, is a bombastic police officer from the Space Federation who finds herself on Earth. Meanwhile, Senkawa must navigate high school life and Shion Arita's modeling career.

Tetsuwan Birdy Decode: Soulanime is an exciting reboot of a classic series that offers a fresh take on the original story. With its blend of sci-fi and action, it's sure to appeal to fans of the original as well as new viewers.
