Takeshi Jin in his mech in IGPX: Immortal Grand Prix on Toonami

Quick Links For many Western anime fans, Toonami was the gateway for viewers growing up in the 1990s and 2000s, with IGPX: Immortal Grand Prix being its first original anime production. The series features a unique blend of contact sports, racing, and mecha anime genres, resulting in a largely bloodless yet thrilling series of robotic roller derby-style clashes.

What surprised me was that the communication with our US counterparts went very well, and, to tell you the truth, it was far easier to work on this project than some of the typical made-in-Japan anime I had made in the past. This trend would hold nearly two decades later, with the recent Terminator Zero series being a collaboration between creator Mattson Tomlin, director Masashi Kudō, and Production I.G.

Related If You Like Pokémon & Digimon Then You Need To Watch The ‘90s Most Underrated Isekai Anime Video game and toy tie-ins were hot in the late 1990s, but Monster Rancher can occasionally go overlooked beyond Pokémon and Digimon. IGPX: Immortal Grand Prix showcases these characters as they play against often ruthless competitors. This occasionally means risking serious injuries and costly repairs, with the core team, Team Satomi, promoted from IG-2 to the ultra-competitive IG-1 scene. While IGPX is never truly high-stakes, viewers can easily enjoy the core group of characters as they face colorful and memorable opponents voiced by iconic voices of the 1990s and 2000s.
