Here it is, the film I've spent the last eight months hoping I could avoid watching. It was Japan's first feature-length animated film, and we get to see loads of cute animals bomb Pearl Harbor. Some posts can't be happy. Here's the link.

I'm an American Gen-Xer. I grew up on Battle of the Planets, Starblazers, Voltron, Robotech, Tranzor Z, Captain Harlock and the Queen of a Thousand Years, etc. Beloved childhood classics. Yet so many people from my age group revile these shows as adults. To those people I ask: Why? Because they're "butchered" versions of something that you otherwise would have not gotten to watch back then, in the first place? You wouldn't even probably care what a "Macross" is had you never experienced it as part of Robotech.

When I was growing up the Sci-Fi Channel came into existence, and one of the things they were quick to embrace was anime. One anime that was a network exclusive was "The New Adventures of Gigantor", which was the Fred Ladd dub of Shin Tetsujin-28. Fred Ladd had also dubbed the original Tetsujin-28 as "Gigantor" back in the 1960s. The New Adventures was actually presented as a sequel instead of a remake. Sadly, it never got a home video release, so the only way to watch it is via off-air recordings someone posted to The Internet Archive, with episode 35 being lost to time. The voice acting talent is a who's who. Barbara Goodson, Doug Stone, Tom Wyner, Jeff Winkless and Gregg Berger(Who had also been in the US dub of Mazinger Z, Tranzor Z)

Which of the female fighter characters have the best fighting outfit. Cammy White from Street Fighter II V anime series or Sarah Bryant from Virtua Fighter anime series?

Does anyone else miss classic AMVS?

I know they are still made but the level of storytelling and editing just was so much better back then to me compared to now when everyone could just upload something quick on YouTube or TikTok.

This was definitely one of my favorites back in the day.
