A private investigator working a routine case involving stolen technology is mortally wounded.

Спустя века после их гибели ключ к нему нашел коварный злодей Тайлер, вознамерившийся подчинить себе вселенную. Но на его пути к магическому источнику, спрятанному в каменных палатах на далекой планете Юроборис, встала могучая воительница ФАКК-2, которая будет преследовать Тайлера в ледяных глубинах бескрайнего космоса, обыскивая неведомые миры, населенные жестокими разбойниками, таинственными магами и невероятными созданиями, до тех пор, пока безжалостный тиран своей кровью не заплатит за гибель ее родной планеты.

One of the first examples of Japanese anime to find a significant audience in the United States, Speed Racer was an animated television series whose bold graphic style, fast-paced action, and curious English-language dubbing won a cult following in America.

When a mechanical arm at Parallax Computer Systems drops a software cartridge and inserts itself in its place, it creates a power surge that turns four programs into viruses: Megahert, the leader; Indexx, his advisor; Null, a lackey, and the uncontrollable Minus. The Parallax Computer responds by activating four Computer Warriors, Romm, Gridd, Micron, and Scanner. All eight ride on circuitboard gliders. The Computer Warriors chase the viruses into a telecomm port, and Romm believes the viruses neutralized in the explosion, but they have escaped into the material world and discovered the ability to convert household objects for their own use. Scanner discovers this and the Computer Warriors learn to do the same, capturing the viruses each on his own CD Rom.
