Abashiri Ikka (あばしり一家, known in the United States as The Abashiri Family) is a Japanese manga series created by Go Nagai that originally ran in the magazine Weekly Shōnen Champion.[2] Some of its characters returned with different names as part of other series, such as Cutie Honey, UFO Robot Grendizer and Mazinger Angels Z among others.
Some of the first stories were adapted into an original video animation by Studio Pierrot in 1991, distributed by Pony Canyon in four installments[3] as part of Anime V Comic Rentaman, and later released as a standalone VHS[4] and LaserDisc[5] on March 21, 1992, also by Pony Canyon. The OVA was brought to North America by ADV Films in 1995.[1]
The manga was also adapted into a live-action film released in 2009.[6]
