Galactic Patrol Lensman (1984–1985) watch online

Galactic Patrol Lensman (GALACTIC PATROL レンズマン, GALACTIC PATROL Renzuman) is a Japanese anime television series based on the Lensman novels by E. E. Smith. The 25-episode series aired from October 6, 1984 to August 8, 1985 in Japan.

Harmony Gold USA created an English dubbed compilation of episodes 1–3 and 5–6 in a heavily edited form, which they released under the title Lensman: Power of the Lens. The other episodes were never dubbed into English. This compilation is no longer available on video, although it was available in the UK on a prerecorded PAL-VHS cassette in the late 1980s. A Catalan dubbed version of the series was broadcast in Catalonia, Spain by TV3 in 1994.

Despite sharing the names of characters and organizations, as well as central themes common to the books, the artistic freedom resulted in a final product completely different from the source material. Although it was produced with the knowledge and consent of Smith's estate, the executors were displeased with the result that for several years they rejected any other suggestions of adaptation.
