Series Introductions / Synopsis

▶ “Zoids New Century Slash Zero”
Original TV anime aired from January to June 2001.
On the planet Zi, peace has reigned for many years after the end of war. In these peaceful cities, competitive battles using giant mechanical lifeforms called Zoids—known as “Zoid Battle”—are popular. A young junk dealer named Bit Cloud stumbles upon a mysterious Zoid with unknown potential: “Liger Zero.” He also meets members of the underdog team “Blitz,” and together they join the world of Zoid Battles. However, powerful warriors wielding elite Zoids and underground organizations conducting rule-breaking battles soon emerge. As Bit and his friends strive for the top in Zoid Battle, their relentless journey begins.

▶ “Zoids Fuzors”
Original TV anime aired from October 2004 to April 2005.
R.D., a young boy affiliated with Mach Storm, takes pride in piloting Liger Zero, his father’s legacy, while working odd jobs and aiming to become a professional Zoid Fighter. One day, news spreads about the existence of “Zyuzion”—a phenomenon allowing two Zoids to merge, dramatically enhancing their abilities! R.D.’s rivalry with rival Blade deepens, revealing a mysterious powerful organization behind it all. Can R.D. overcome these elite Zoids and stop this hidden conspiracy?

▶ “Zoids Genesis”
Original TV anime aired from April 2005 to March 2006.
On the planet Zi, there exist sentient metal lifeforms known as Zoids—mechanical beings with remarkable combat abilities and their own wills. Suddenly, a massive axial shift strikes the planet, causing widespread destruction and wiping out all civilizations. Thousands of years pass, and civilization begins to rise again across the land. The ancient catastrophe is now remembered only through myth as “The Wrath of the Gods,” while surviving descendants have built unique new cultures in various regions. Yet remnants from that lost era still remain scattered throughout the world: mysterious massive facilities known as “Generators,” which continue to operate, and unearthed relics—advanced mecha-lifeforms called “Zoids.”

● What is “Zoids”?
The “Zoids” series is a major original IP launched by Takara Tomy Co., Ltd. since 1983 as a toy-based franchise.

Inspired by dinosaurs and animals, the Zoids are mechanized lifeforms whose name derives from “Zoic” (animal/biological) and “Android.”
The toys—known as Realistic Moving Kits (assembled drivable models)—feature built-in electric motors or wind-up mechanisms, allowing them to move like real living creatures once assembled.
