Cobra (コブラ Kobura) is a space opera manga created by Buichi Terasawa in late 1970s, in early 1980s turned into an anime movie and a TV series. In 2008 the series was brought back with new OVA and a TV series planned for 2009.
The series features the infamous space-pirate Cobra who was once forced to hide from enemies by surgically altering his face and erasing his own memory. At the start of the story he is living an ordinary life but after going to a trip-parlor where ordinary people live out their fantasies as powerful implanted dreams he starts to regain his true memories (a similar concept occurs in Philip K. Dick's We Can Remember It for You Wholesale and its movie adaptation Total Recall). With his android partner Lady Armaroid (a female armored being) literally 'bursting' out of the bulky domestic robot she impersonated in his years of 'vacation', and his old ship The Turtle, he now faces foes both old and new. The first, and most well-known of the manga stories sees him encountering the Royal sisters whose bodies have tattoos that could lead to a great treasure.
