This program includes both the original 1995 OAV and the 1996 sequel, Galaxy Fraulein Yuna Returns. Based on a 1992 computer game, this slapstick adventure is populated entirely by aggressively cute adolescent girls, including Polylina, who spoofs Tuxedo Mask in Sailor Moon. Bouncy blond Yuna is the "Champion of Light," who has apparently saved the entire galaxy from evil on numerous occasions. In "Sorrowful Saline," Fraulein D frames Yuna on criminal charges before the Galactic Alliance. Yuna takes on a trio of maniacal android sisters in "Fairy of the Deep Darkness." She wins over the youngest sister through unremitting friendliness but destroys the other two with some help from her many pals. Both stories are badly underdeveloped, and although Yuna is refreshingly free of fan-service jiggle shots, it's silly to the point of inanity. Rated 12 Up: Violence, alcohol use, minor profanity, brief nudity. --Charles Solomon

4.0 out of 5 stars A very kawaii and funny anime, December 10, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Galaxy Fraulein Yuna 1 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Galaxy Fraulein Yuna is a great anime which is kawaii and funny. It is excelent if you are an otaku anime addict or just starting out. The story features Yuna, a teenage girl who is chosen to save the planet. This all gets twisted up when she is kidnaped by the evil Fraulein D. Now it is up to hre friends to save her. Will they make it in time?

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, cute, comedy with some serious moments!, March 2, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Galaxy Fraulein Yuna (DVD)

The only thing which made me buy this DVD was the Japanese opening song by Chisa Yokoyama and despite a spunky JPOPish opening song I expected a pretty tame show - boy was I wrong!

Galaxy Fraulein Yuna is a fast, cutesy, action comedy with incredibly lovable characters especially the defender of the galaxy Yuna and her food loving side kick Yuri (who's forever stuffing her face in a most hillarious manner).

The show assumes you already know who the main characters are but I had no problem with that. The action is fast, there is lots of humour and even a touching moment or two. In one of the episodes Yuna befriends her enemy - a confused young girl with supernatural powers and invites her to move in with her. The show continually introduces many other cute girls who are on Yuna's team. Some characters are clear parodies of other shows - there is a character who parodies Tuxedo Mask from Sailor Moon, another two characters parody Sasami(or Ruri from Nadesico) and Ayeka from Tenchi Muyo and yet another looks almost like Belldandi from Ah My Goddess! In one scene we also see Usagi and the other Sailor Scouts playing at school while a battle scene in episode two shows Zantraedi ships from Macross/Robotech being blown up.

Despite being spoiled by shows such as Hand Maid May, Love Hina, Chobits and I My Me, Strawberry Eggs I enjoyed this light-hearted show immensely and found the only drawback that there are only five episodes. Brilliant! ^-^
