12-year-old Sakaki Jirô is introduced to the viewer at the breakfast table with his parents. He is getting ready to go, with his friend Yurika, to take a tour of his uncle Dr. Sakaki's (a.k.a. Dr. Lee) cryogenics research institute lab. While there he gets accidentally trapped in one of the cryogenic chambers during an earthquake and revives in another time where apes rule and there are no humans, other than Gôdo. Because their similar age, he hit it off Pepe. In the heavily-edited and English-dubbed version, "Time of the Apes", he was renamed "Johnny". Image:Totatitle.jpg
