Plot

edit

1000 years in the future, the king who governed the kingdom of Fir, died. An evil dynasty conformed from the capricious Prince Kamaro, his sister Princess Mirenjo, and their two minions (the mechanic Julie Kokematsu and the guard Alan Sukadon) conspire with the objective of governing the kingdom with Kamaro as king. However, a major technicality prevents Kamaro from succeeding with his plan, because whoever finds the mystic Firebird first will become the new and rightful monarch.

The Firebird travels throughout time and space in the past, disguised as mystic objects of legends, and the evil villains want to capture it. The honorable daughter of the deceased king, Princess Karen, and her guard-robot, Daigoron, travel towards 1981 to ask for help from his ancestors, Wataru Toki and Koyomu Himekuri, in locating the Firebird. When the villains take advantage of the heroes, Wataru Toki transforms into Yattodetaman before fighting against the trio in a comedic battle.
