Planet and prison seen in anime
Planet Alcatrand has been identified in the anime, F-Zero: GP Legend. It is the homeworld in which felonies and murderers had been exiled and put into permanent cold sleep. In Episode 2, it was first pointed out by Jody that surveillance picked up Black Shadow and his Dark Million organization ransacking the prison and awakening Rick's nemesis, Zoda. Later on, Jody herself decided to investigate the devastated facility and find any traces of Zoda, but the place was left abandoned. However, she was soon ambushed by him, as the maniac declared this was his spot to chill out.
While it may be considered to house White Land, some fans had identified Planet White as its home planet. The name was of course a homage to the infamous prison, Alcatran.
Ikran's F-Zero timeline[]
It's often mistakenly spelt as Planet Alctran... And it's the location of White Land.
Anyway, it was first discovered as a place where cold sleep criminals are stationed, those that have high felonies. Both Haruka Misaki's dead vessel and Zoda's were kept there, till Black Shadow invaded the prison! Both fugitives were resurrected and controlled by him! Jody snuck there at the abandoned facility to find answers on hers and Andy's killer, but no such luck as she was being ambushed by the maniac's gunship! Rick and Tinsel arrived on the scene, and the two pilots were shot! They actually survived the ordeal, especially as Tinsel instantly froze the guns with her ice jets from her Comet.
It was hardly seen since, although it kept on reminding of the unfortunate, fatal incident as she failed to cross over the large gap at the final Queen League course, White Land II; White Land I was also stationed there. At the finale of Ending it All, after receiving Falcon's mantle, Rick decided to let Tinsel conquer her worst fear! Thanks to James McCloud's tutelage on raising the machine's nose allowing a safer, longer jump, she was successful! They even saw an astonishing sight of a comet sailing across the sky, Rick naming it the Tinsel Dragon!
Trivia[]
- Ikran was always uneasy that both this place and White Land never made a connection; she always referred to that planet as its home rather than Planet White, and even implied it in her Top 10 Arctic Levels.
