Editorial Reviews

Casual fans will pick it up for Battle of the Planets or G-Force nostalgia. Otaku will pick it up because it’s part of the canon. Comics fans will pick it up for the Alex Ross box-art. Gatchaman has something for everyone!

This review is from: Gatchaman Collection 8 (Vols. 15 & 16) (DVD)

...if you have never watched Gatchaman in your life and you like Japanese Animation ala Anime, you owe it to yourself to check this one out. I love old 1970's Anime like the original Mobile Suit Gundam and Gatchaman. If you have watched Battle of the Planets in the past man it doesn't compare. Battle of the Planets was an extremely watered down-made for kids version of Gatchaman. The series does not contain nudity or anything like that, but the uncut ones show people getting killed--lots of them per episode. Vol. 8 is the most intense of the series because the Science Ninja Team actually get defeated and their base gets destroyed by the evil Galactor. Check them out. You will not be disappointed. BTW-they are dubbed superbly in English, and also have Japanese original audio with subtitles. Tons of extras on the box sets.
