Gatchaman Safety Gear?? Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Report Post to a Moderator        IP Information Go to the top of this page

I'm not 100% sure what this is...maybe someone can give us better details...but I saw this on You Tube and thought I'd share. It appears to be Gatchaman promoting wearing safety gear of some sort. They should have made bird helmets *grin*. Ok, I know they wouldn't really be functional, but still... Wink

Here's the link to the video:

I'd be surprised if it wasn't a PSA for using protective gear (and using it properly ) while motorcycling.

Yeah, pretty sure that's what we're seeing here! Smile

Thanks! I figured it was something like that...just wasn't sure!

Thanks, Redbird...my icon was drawn by an artist named Haha. It was black and white, so I colored it and added hearts for Valentine's Day. Wink

Ah ok! I was thinking it looked familiar--I probably have it saved somewhere. You did a nice job with the coloring, it came out really well! Smile

Thanks for posting, that was fun to see. If anyone is curious, here is what the text says:

"Make sure your helmet’s chin strap is secure!
The strap's secured!
Don’t forget a protector!
Protector secured!
Be prepared for accidents with safety equipment!
Let’s try to cut back on excessive speed!
Aim for zero bike traffic accidents!

Metropolitan Police Transportation and Communication Department"

When was this made? If recently, it shows the live action movie didn't hurt the franchise any.

It looks like it was very recent. The earliest mention I've found about it was a January 28 posting of the video on YouTube from what looks like the official department.

I checked in Japan thinking fans there may have a more precise date for it, but they're thinking February. It's unknown yet if Tatsunoko had any involvement in the animation.

Thanks!!! I saw this on Kena's FB page a couple of days ago but they hadn't given an explanation in English. Smile

Hi all!

the Metropolitan Police Department in Japan has started their annual "Safety Rider Contest." The ad for this makes use of a scene from this video.

 

The contest is really more of a pledge by riders to be drive safely than a challenge against other people. People can sign up either individually or in groups of three, and if they can avoid being in accidents or receiving safety violations during the contest period (May 1st through October 31st for groups, May 1st through February 28th for individuals), they'll receive an achievement certificate and a souvenir of some sort.

More information on this contest can be found, in Japanese, here:

http://www.keishicho.metro.tokyo.jp/kotu.../sr_contest.htm

Sounds like a great idea! I think the team would approve. Smile
