Sharaku is a descendant of an ancient race of three eyed humans who once ruled the world in the old days with superior technology and intelligence. Sharaku is very intelligent, but also very evil. If his third eye is covered, he becomes a very likeable, nice, clueless little kid. Wato is the daughter of a local priest and is in love with the evil, powerful side of Sharaku. Sharaku, the evil is also in love with her and acts as her protector. When his third eye is covered though, she has to protect him and acts as his mother.
The popular Manga "The Three-Eyed Boy Comes Here" was produced as the eighth in an animated series for a special 24-hour broadcast. This time, the movie was produced by Toei Animation Co., Ltd. instead of by Tezuka Productions Co., Ltd. Here, Tezuka Osamu was in charge of only the original story and a synopsis for animation. Based on the original Manga, "Easter Island: Sea voyage," Sharaku and Wato investigate a mysterious old ship, only to find themselves getting involved in a sea voyage around strange islands. More emphasis was placed on entertainment factors than on theme, and this change in the concept line resulted in the withdrawal of Tezuka Productions Co., Ltd. from this series.
