This review is from: Bubblegum Crash: Total Crash Collection (DVD)

To straighten out some of the people that reviewed this that clearly don't know what they're talking about - this is the second "Bubblegum" series to be produced.

First, there was simply "Bubblegum Crisis", then there was "Bubblegum Crash" and finally there was ADV Films' "Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040"

While ADV Films' Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040 is arguably the best of the series (simply because it's newer and has the advantage of improved animation technology), the first two series stand up surprisingly well on their own.

Both the original Bubblegum Crisis and Bubblegum Crash series are considered by many today to be "classics", including myself.

Bubblegum Crash does take place "in continuity" after the original Bubblegum Crisis series, so I'd recommend wathcing that series prior to watching this one for the full effect. You could certainly watch Crash by itself, though.

Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040 is a "re-visioning" of the original Bubblegum Crisis series and does not really fit into the same continuity as the original Crisis and Crash.

So, now that I have the continuity covered, I'll say that of the three different series, Bubblegum Crash is the weakest of them all. It's still a "classic" though, that hardcore fans like me will always love.

This review is from: Bubblegum Crash: Total Crash Collection (DVD)

The on going continuation of the original Bubblegum Crisis. This gives a few last episodes of what was going on in the series. You don't have to buy it to understand the last of the series, but I highly recommend getting it just for the last episodes.

This review is from: Bubblegum Crash: Total Crash Collection (DVD)

It is the year 2034 A.D. The story of the Knight-Sabers (Bubblegum Crisis sereis) is not yet over. In this three-episode mini-series, an old enemy returns to settle the score!
English/Japanese Audio w/ subtitles

Content Warning: Contains Violence & Mild Profanity.

Bubblegum Crash 1 - Illegal Army - A paramilitary group commits a number of daring thefts, but it's all a cover for their real objective - a new AI program that promises to revolutionize Boomer design.

Bubblegum Crash 2 - Geo Climbers - Only two men survive from the original team who helped Professor Stingray create the Boomer technology. Now one of them is dead, and his breakthrough prototype, ADAMA, is being framed for the crime!

Bubblegum Crash 3 - Melt Down - The boomers are rioting, and a nuclear boring machine is heading straight towards MegaTokyo's fusion reactor! Only the Knight Sabers can avert the apocalypse, and in order to do it, they'll have to defeat an old enemy - not once, but three and a half times!

A great editon to compliment your Bubblegum Crisis Collection!
