The first TV anime by Toei Doga (now Toei Animation), this wildly popular jungle adventure romance. The second installment of its theatrical film series. Ken, the "Two-Legged Wolf" jungle adventurer. He heads to investigate the scene of a loud noise and discovers the crash of a large bird (actually an airplane). From the crash site, Ken rescues an unconscious girl—Princess Isla of the Karaba Kingdom—but she is being targeted for assassination by a revolutionary minister... One day, after the events in the Karaba Kingdom, another problem arises. It is a challenge to Ken from Babu, a boy raised by antelopes, much like Ken, who was raised by wolves. With his wolf cub friend Poppo taken hostage, Ken reluctantly accepts the duel with Babu. However, behind this situation lies the sinister plot of three fierce beasts—a gorilla, a tiger, and a bear—who hold a grudge against Ken.
An edited version of TV series Episode 5 "The Arabian Mysterious Man" and Episode 8 "Duel at the Demon Rock." It was released as a double feature during the revival screening of the anime film *Journey to the West*.
