Tarzan: The Epic Adventures

Tarzan: The Epic Adventures

1996
TV Show

Tarzan: The Epic Adventures is a syndicated series that aired for one season. It focuses on the character of Tarzan in his early years, after his first exposure to civilization, but before his marriage to Jane. The series uses much of the mythology of Edgar Rice Burroughs' books as background material. This version of Tarzan was filmed in the Sun City resort in South Africa, making it one of the few Tarzan productions to actually film on that continent. The character of Nicholas Rokoff, and the fact that Tarzan is not yet married, set this series in-between the two halves of The Return of Tarzan. R. A. Salvatore wrote an authorized Tarzan novel based on pilot script which was published as a trade-paperback in 1996, and a mass-market paperback in 1997.

This is a medical manga set in a child psychiatry clinic, where the heroine, Shiho Tono, a trainee doctor, meets children with various mental illnesses, including the director Takashi Sayama, and tries to find solutions. There are very few stories that can be completed in one episode, and the style is often of dividing a theme into multiple stories and solving the problem from various angles, rather than solving the problem completely.
