3.0 out of 5 stars Dated, tame but not the worst thing out there, July 21, 2002

This review is from: Amon Saga (DVD)

OK.. to give credit where credit is due. 80s animation has to be judged as such. Amon Saga is like watching Battle of the Planets (Gatchaman) fun if you were there and remember it. I enjoyed Amon Saga, but wouldn't rank it with even the lowest of my favourite Animes.

It is a typical good vs. evil, save the damsel in distress, meet unlikely allies along the way adventure story. The action scenes lack the gore and intensity of more modern anime, the dialogue is simple and the language clean. An updated story and some deeper development would make a decent remake.

This review is from: Amon Saga (DVD)

This is a nice anime of the 80s.The story is nice but remains average.The animation look great for an old anime and theres also a small scene with Vampire Hunter D in it.
i can say i like this anime but i cant say i love it or watch it frequently but if you like old 80s anime you might as well see it.

This review is from: Amon Saga (DVD)

I dont know why this movie has such bad reviews, its really one of the better animes out there. It consist of the main hero Amon, a great swordsman, on a journy of revenge.

Theres an evil empire whose recruiting new soldiers and Amon competes with others to become one of the soldiers. Theres tons of characters with unique traits and the movie takes several twists.

Its hard to describe the exact nature of the plot but what i will say is that if you dont give this movie a chance, your missing out!
