[3] Twelve-year-old Rin Yuki loyally supported his father when the world laughed at the scientist for saying that Earth was about to be face an alien invasion.

But Rin did not expect to become personally involved—until he met Takoro, the strange young "deputy sheriff" from another world who was on the trail of notorious space criminals.

There were only four Kurodako Brothers, but they plotted to use their alien science and natural shapeshifting powers to become the secret masters of Earth.

An English dub of episode one was also made, apparently in an unsuccessful attempt to sell the series to the United States.

In 2019, Tatsunoko announced a reboot of the series titled Muteking the Dancing Hero that aired from October 3 to December 19, 2021.
