Description:
The first four episodes of the TV series based on the popular video game are set in a vaguely turn-of-the-century London. The son of a wealthy archeologist, Falcon dreams of becoming the champion "fighter" of the world. When the whiny old family retainer brings him a mysterious gem, Falcon plunges into a conflict involving such curious characters as Rouge the fortuneteller, Ryoma the samurai, a living mummy, a troupe of ninja spies disguised as circus acrobats (including a transvestite star), and Octo and Pus, the Team Rocket of the series. Although Falcon remains ignorant of the stone's true power, it enables him to transform into a scarlet mecha version of himself. In either form, he comes across as a supercilious and not particularly likable hero. Power Stone is a fighting game, but the action in the animated version is minimal and cartoony. Rated 12 Up: Cartoon violence. --Charles Solomon
