"Yamihunshi'' is one of Baku Yumemakura's masterpieces. The condition for making it into a comic was "if Ken Ishikawa could draw it.'' “I am a fan of Mr. Ishikawa's drawings and stories, and there is something particularly irresistible about the frighteningness when he depicts mechanics that look like living internal organs.” (“About the Dark Hunter”) (From the 19th Ranzo). As those words suggest, Ken Ishikawa's unique writing style skillfully depicts the activities of Kujuku Ranzo, whose business is to banish demons, with a touch of humor at times. Kujuku Ranzo, a "tatarare-ya" who is known as Mr. Sennin and has mastered Chinese martial arts, is visiting a villa to ward off evil spirits at the request of Zennosuke Tamba. Ranzo visits the mansion knowing that Tamba is willing to kill people for money, and there he finds Tamba, whose body is gradually rotting from the lower half of his body, and Baou, a type of mizuchi. He meets his daughter, Ryoko, who is possessed by Sei. Will Ranzo be able to solve the mystery and the evil spirit lurking in the Tamba family?

Ryoma Nagare, Hayato Jin, and Prof. Saotome pilot three specially designed combat jets, which can be combined together in different forms to form three different kinds of giant robots, Getter-1 (used for aerial combat), Getter-2 (for land-based conflicts), and Getter-3 (for undersea battles). They were assembled by Prof. Saotome and became Earth's first line of defense against the Dinosaur Empire, which is a civilization of reptile-like humanoids, who evolved from the now-extinct dinosaurs that roamed the earth millions of years ago. The series was groundbreaking in the anime mecha genre: for the very first time, it introduced the concept of separate machines combining to form a super robot. Using three jets, Getter Robo could combine in three different ways to create three different versions of Getter Robo for different conditions and situations. This idea was originally discussed during the creation process for Mazinger Z (the first super robot to be piloted internally), but was dropped and then developed for Getter Robo. This combination idea proved to be a very powerful concept that has been used in the super robot genre ever since.
