An example of a standard appearing Gatchaman script, in this case from episode 26, Return to Life, God Phoenix. The script contains the standard information about production, including episode number and title, broadcast time and date, sponsor names and main production crew names. The handwritten note in red at the top reads "Corrected Script."

These scripts contained the final version of the dialogue as it was set for recording by the voice actors. In many cases, lines and scenes were changed on the spot during recording, and in most instances, these changes were noted with handwritten indications within the scripts.

Scripts were printed for most of the production staff, from the producers, down to the people that did the editing. One of the other main uses for these scripts was by the editing staff, who would make copious notes regarding scene changes, plus the lengths names and locations where any music cues were used.

The scripts were printed on medium weight colored cover stock (concurrent episodes used different color covers so they didn't get confused during production) and the interiors were printed on pulp. The pulp interiors were double stapled and the covers were glued to the interiors.

The scripts were printed from handwritten sources, unlike the scenarios which were printed from typeset sources.

Due to their age, the scripts are very fragile and tend to tear and fall apart easily.
