🎶 "Monkey Magic... Monkey Magic" 🎶✨️🐵☁️

Who remembers the series Monkey?

Monkey is a Japanese live-action TV series from the late 1970s and early 1980s. It’s based on the classic 16th-century Chinese novel Journey to the West, one of the most famous adventure stories in Asian literature.

The show became especially popular in the UK, where it aired on the BBC with an iconic English dub, full of quirky humour and memorable lines.

It follows a group on a holy pilgrimage from China to India to collect sacred Buddhist scriptures:

🐒 Monkey (Sun Wukong)
A rebellious, superpowered monkey born from a stone.
Wields a magical staff.
Flies on a cloud.
Known for being cheeky, funny, and sometimes out of control.

🧘‍♀️ Tripitaka (Sanzō)
A gentle Buddhist monk.
Leader of the pilgrimage.
In the Japanese series, the monk is famously played by a woman (Masako Natsume).

🐷 Pigsy
A half-human, half-pig ex-marshal.
Greedy but good-hearted.
Provides comic relief.

🐶 Sandy
A calm, loyal former river ogre.
The sensible one of the group.

Together, they travel across a mythical landscape filled with demons, spirits, gods, and strange magical challenges.

📼 We've added Monkey to our VHS collection!
Come relax here at Hadoken in our Blockbuster chill out corner! ☺️🎬
