Super Atragon tagline

It has revived from a long sleep, and begun to move at the bottom of the sea. They call it "Ra-goh", the great warship. It is the crisis of Mother Earth that awoke Ra-goh. Armed with the gigantic drill machine, it crosses the waters. The countdown to extinction has already started. Can Ra-goh save the Earth?

Super Atragon poster text

Super Atragon (新海底軍艦,   Shin Kaitei Gunkan, lit. New Undersea Warship) is a two-part OVA co-produced by Toho, Bandai, Kadokawa, King Records, Astro Vision, and Phoenix Entertainment. It is loosely based on the 1900 Japanese adventure novel The Undersea Warship: A Fantastic Tale of Island Adventure written by Shunro Oshikawa, as well as its 1963 tokusatsu adaptation Atragon.

The first part, simply titled Super Atragon (新海底軍艦 滅亡へのゼロアワー,   Shin Katei Gunkan Metsubō e no Zero Awā, lit. New Undersea Warship: Zero Hours to Destruction), was released in Japan direct-to-video in 1995, and the second part, Super Atragon: Part II (新海底軍艦 メモリー・オブ・オーシャン,   Shin Katei Gunkan Memorī obu Ōshan, lit. New Undersea Warship: Memory of the Ocean), in 1996.
