4.0 out of 5 stars Meet Akari & Co., August 6, 2001

This review is from: Battle Athletes Victory: Training [VHS] (VHS Tape)

In this video the viewer meets Akari Kanzaki and her friends during midterms, who all attend the Antarctic Training School in the year 4998. Akari and her friends are all competing for the top 3 spots, for those lucky 3 will be one step closer to winning the title of Cosmo Beauty. Poor Akari not only fails all her tests, but she is the daughter of one of the most reknowned Cosmo Beauties of all time, Tomoe Mido! But if she practices hard, and with the help of her friends, there may be hope for her yet!

This video contains episodes 1-4 of the series, rated PG-13 for mild language.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best anime series out there...period., September 30, 1999

This review is from: Battle Athletes Victory: Training [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have watched many anime series in the past 18 months, and I have to say that this one is one of the best I have ever seen. The animation, characterdevelopment, English voice acting, and plot are awesome. This series is an excellent combination of action, comedy, and drama. Even if you are not into anime, I still highly recommend that you check out this series. There is some language that some might deem offensive. But if you are looking to watch a mini-series that is action packed, emotionally charged, yet light hearted at the same time, get this series. I know I can't wait until the rest is released!
