10,000 Years From Now… Humanity Will Still Need Heroes!
A powerful entity known as Death Mask hurls Kujukuri City, Japan, and Dallas, Texas, 10,000 years into the future, reshaping them into a ruthless battleground where only the strongest survive. Determined to shatter this tyrant’s hold on time itself, Gai Tanbara ventures into the dystopian future. Along the way, he meets Emiya, a fierce warrior fighting to reclaim her city from the darkness. Together, they confront the horrors of a shattered world and the sinister forces threatening the fate of humanity!
Created by “God of Manga” Osamu Tezuka and featuring storyboards by the legendary Noboru Ishiguro!

Prime Rose was a character that Osamu Tezuka had introduced in various manga over the years (including his series Astro Boy: Omega Factor), but didn't develop into her own series until 1982. This TV special is her first appearance in animated form.
Prime Rose features a new dub by the nascent dub studio SkySet Entertainment.
