Muteking texture
The protagonist is Takoro, a pink octopus-like alien from a distant planet called Tako. Takoro is the deputy sheriff of the local police who is chasing a group of dangerous intergalactic criminals, four black octopuses who call themselves the Octopus Brothers. During its pursuit, the medium of the black octopuses crashes to Earth and so does poor Takoro: the spaceship crashes in America, to be precise in San Francisco, in the house of a weird inventor and his family.
Here Takoro explains who he is and the reason for his mission: he will not leave Earth until he has captured the Octopus Brothers and brought them back in chains to his planet. Takoro has an idea: to get help from young Linn, a 12-year-old boy, in his mission. Thanks to a special beam that only Takoro can emit, Linn in the blink of an eye transforms into Muteking, an extraordinary intergalactic warrior who fights on a pair of roller skates and who manages to destroy the plans of conquest that the Piovra brothers have towards the planet Earth and its inhabitants.
