About Space Runaway Ideon: Contact
A movie recap of the Space Runaway Ideon TV Series. Humanity's pursuit of knowledge leads them to the planet Solo, where they find mysterious remains of a long dead alien civilization, including the 3 part super robot 'Ideon', and a powerful warship. Using these, the Earthlings sent to investigate the ruins defend themselves in their constant conflicts against powerful aliens called the Buff Clan, who are in pursuit of 'Id', the mysterious energy that powers the Ideon.
Directed by Yoshiyuki Tomino, Toshifumi Takizawa, Space Runaway Ideon: Contact leans on a strong ensemble — Yoko Asagami, Banjo Ginga, Koichi Hashimoto — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 1982.
