Bittersweet exposure
This cassette was my first exposure to an animated Astro Boy, and while I was thrilled with the cartoons, the video quality was less than perfect. The flaw was in the recording, however, and not in the cassette (in other words, the cassette wasn't damaged). Other copies may not contain the same flaw, and the episodes are a fun, black and white trip back in time, so I...

Review is of the product, not Astro Boy who is always wonderful.. ^___^ A poor effort at film to video transfer... With the wealth of tools available to restore old films and bring this type of vintage material "up-to-date" these videos are a big disappointment.

This cassette was my first exposure to an animated Astro Boy, and while I was thrilled with the cartoons, the video quality was less than perfect. The flaw was in the recording, however, and not in the cassette (in other words, the cassette wasn't damaged). Other copies may not contain the same flaw, and the episodes are a fun, black and white trip back in time, so I recommend the video for anyone looking for an enjoyable anime history lesson.

This review is from: Astro Boy 30th 1 [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Review is of the product, not Astro Boy who is always wonderful.. ^___^A poor effort at film to video transfer... With the wealth of tools available to restore old films and bring this type of vintage material "up-to-date" these videos are a big disappointment. The glossy 4-color package doesn't make up for the many glaring flaws on the films which could have been digitally "cleaned-up" but its obvious not much money was involved in the production of these videos. Astro Boy, the first ever regular TV anime by the great Tezuka deserves better than this. This caliber product wouldn't not even be offered for sale in Japan where high quality standards are the norm. |
