Sanitized, but good., October 15, 2004
This review is from: Battle of the Planets (25th Anniversary Collection) (DVD)
BOTP was one of my favourite cartoons as a child. Unfortunatly pricing and a lack of cohesive packaging turned me off to the idea of purchasing this series. But now everything is coming together at the same time, a great price and a compact size and a good quantity of episodes (14) made this collection very hard to resist. And it includes two episodes that were etched in my mind THE GALAXY GIRLS and THE FIERCE FLOWERS. As an adult the americanization of the series is very annoying, adding an insipid R2D2 knockoff as a narrator and having people say things like "the REMOTE CONTROLLED planes have been destroyed" over and over is just very lame, WE GET IT NO ONE DIES EVER!!! Overall if the next set is inexpensive and has a good amount of episodes i will continue to purchase this series.EP

Transmute!!, September 30, 2004
This review is from: Battle of the Planets (25th Anniversary Collection) (DVD)
I'd never purchased anime before when I spotted the Battle of the Planets 25th Anniversary set while out shopping. BATTLE OF THE PLANETS! I had many great times as a kid dreaming about these characters and pretending to be them. This DVD set was a must have and I hadn't seen this show in 25 years so it was quite a flashback. The voice talent on this show was really impressive and it's wonderful to see Zoltan (Keye Luke really is fantastic and his performance makes his role one of the all time great cartoon bad guys) and my childhood heroes the G-Force (all fine performers who are perfect) and 7Zark7 (Alan Young really shines). Watching these DVDs has brought back so many great memories. Thanks Rhino!
