I`m happy to answer any and all questions to the best of my knowledge and online research.

If I haven't heard of the anime I'll still do what I can to help you in your search.

Anime - Prince Planet


Expert: Akire - 10/8/2009

Question
When I was a kid in the 70's, the Prince Planet anime was run on tv in Chicago. I remember an episode where a pickpocket stole his pendant, and at the end of the episode an avalanche was falling down on him. That was a Friday, on Monday I found that they'd stopped running Prince Planet. It's been 30 years, and I still don't know

Answer
I'm not exactly sure what your question is about the series. I'm glad you remembered the name, that helped a lot. If you want more info about the show, Wikipedia has a small article on it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Planet

But as for why it stopped airing, this article may shed some light on what happened and why the production was put to a hault, aside from the violence issues mentioned in the wikipedia article.

Also, from this blog I think you may be able to find a few episodes in "Starman" DVDs, you can read the whole article here which also contains an episode list.

I hope you find what you're looking for, best regards and happy viewing.
