Production Team and Theme Music
The anime is directed by Hideki Ambo under studio Arect. The screenplay is written by Atsuhiro Tomioka (screenwriter of Pokémon), alongside CHARATEX. Character designs are by sanorin.
The theme song uses the track “Taga Tame ni” (For Whom), performed by Kyoko, vocalist of rock band Barbee Boys. The song was originally used in the 1979 TV anime, where it was performed by Ken Narita and Koorogi ’73 — with Ishinomori himself credited as lyricist.
Cyborg 009: Nemesis is scheduled to stream sometime this summer.
History of Cyborg 009
