An anime commemorating the 500th anniversary of Columbus' landing to the New World. Christopher Columbus is a man of strong will. His life is full of drama. Born in Genoa, he realizes his dream of becoming a sailor, dares to search for a new route, and finally reaches his goal, discovering a new land in the process. Sometimes in desperation, sometimes in excitement, his experiences are truly extraordinary. Note: The series originally broadcasted in Italy on Canale 5 from November 28, 1992 to March 30, 1993.
