In 70s-style Robot Anime Geppy-X, the story reaches a turning point midway through the adventure as the heroes receive their upgraded machine, Geppy-XX.

But the transformation doesn't stop there.

Just like a classic super robot anime entering its second half, the in-game television opening is completely replaced. The opening title changes from Geppy-X to Geppy-XX, and the opening theme continues with the song's second verse, creating the feeling that viewers are watching the next chapter of an actual TV series.

The Launch Trailer showcases this upgraded opening sequence for the first time.
