Inspired by the success of Transformers, Sunrise, Nagoya TV and toy maker Takara collaborated on a series of super robot shows that form the "Brave Saga." While the eight shows in the Brave Saga all follow the theme of humans working together with robots, they are all set in their own separate continuities with no relations between the series. In 1990, Brave Exkaiser premiered as the first Brave series under the direction of Katsuyoshi Yatabe, who also later directed Brave of the Sun Fighbird and Legendary Brave Da Garn. Later series feature work from directors such as Shinji Takamatsu (Gundam X) and Ryosuke Takahashi (VOTOMS). In 2006, Media Blasters licensed King of Braves GaoGaiGar, making it the first "Brave" series to be released in the U.S.
