Ape Escape On Air + Letchu, Getchu, Saru Getchu + Movie / サルゲッチュ ～オンエアー～ + レッチュ ゲッチュ サルゲッチュ + 黄金のピポヘル・ウッキーバトル

"Ape Escape" is a very popular video game series in Japan, which is more of a cult/nostalgic series here in the EU/US. However, Ape Escape had several TV-shows and specials that never made it outside Japan. The most "known" title is "Saru Getchu: On Air", a CG-animated version with a brand new storyline. It managed to get two whole seasons and clocks at 78 eleven-minutes long episodes! That's 14,3 hours of Ape Escape goodness!

The first season was subbed by "DATS", but there weren't enough viewers for them to bother translating the second season. That's why this page will contain both RAWs and Subs of this series.

Saru Getchu: On Air 1st (Subbed)

Based on the Playstation 1 game "Ape Escape". Monkeys are trying to take over the world and are running around all major cities, causing menace to everyone who lives there. Fortunately, there's a professor in town already prepared for this. He sends his grandson, Kakeru (or Spike) to capture those naughty apes with a super strong transportation net. What happens to the caught monkeys? This will reveal it...

NOTE: Missing episode 4 and 21. It's unfortunate, bud nobody managed to record the episode. The series never released on DVD either.

Letchu, Getchu, Saru Getchu + Movie (RAW/JP Only)

A gag series based on the "Ape Escape" franchise. The monkeys are up to no good again, but this time they're on the "heroes" side. Performing no good magic shows, cloning themselves with a ninja Jutsu and filling UFO catchers with themselves are just a few of the tricks they're pulling, while at the same time trying to adapt themselves to the human lifestyle. Used to air on the japanese kids' morning block "Ohasuta" in 2002.
