Section23 Films announced in its April release slate that Sentai Filmworks will release the Gatchaman II (Kagaku Ninja-Tai Gatchaman II) television anime on DVD on April 18.
Sentai Filmworks previously released the entire original Gatchaman television anime series, the 1994-95 OVA series, and the recent Gatchaman Crowds and Gatchaman Crowds insight spinoff anime.
Saban Entertainment licensed Gatchaman II and its sequel Gatchaman Fighter in 1996 and combined the two shows to create the 65-episode series Eagle Riders.
Only 13 episodes of the series aired in the United States, though all 65 episodes aired in Europe and Australia.
