Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
In this second two-disc set of adventures, Gene Starwind and Jim Hawking shift operations to the planet Heifong, accompanied by the lovely assassin Suzuka and the cyborg Malfina. The Ctarl-Ctarl alien Aisha Clanclan joins them as a rather fractious partner. During a high-stakes space race, Gene discovers that MacDougall, the enemy he met in episode 9, is really two brothers: Harry, a psychotic cyborg, and Ron, a gelid sadist. Nasty as they are, the MacDougall brothers are small potatoes compared to the real threat Gene and his friends face. In "The Seven Emerge," Lord Hazano, the head of the 108 Stars pirate gang, sends a band of dreaded murderers after them. Hazano wants Gene's ship, the Outlaw Star, which rebel pirate "Hot Ice" Hilda gave him before she was murdered by the MacDougalls. A secret coalition of pirates and Space Force agents developed the ship: with Malefina acting as its guidance system, it's the only vessel capable of reaching the fabulous treasure hidden at the Galactic Leyline. Although he's unable to discover the nature of the treasure or the location of the Galactic Leyline, Gene resolves to take his crew there at the end of episode 18. But there's still time for plenty of comic adventure, including Gene's entry in the distaff events of the Galactic Strongman Contest as "Jenny." Rhinestone-in-the-rough Gene Starwind may remind viewers of a cross between Kain Blueriver in Lost Universe and Vash the Stampede in Trigun. Like Kain, he comes out on top in misadventures that never quite cover his expenses, and he's as formidable a marksman as Vash. But he lacks the metaphysical bent that enables Kain to wield a psi blade, and the viewer looks in vain for Vash's reverence for life and self-deprecating charm. Outlaw Star delivers an engaging, rather dark brand of comedy-adventure, although the clean-up artists on the series do very sloppy work: Gene's features change noticeably from scene to scene. Episodes included: 10. "Gathering for the Space Race," 11. "Adrift in Subspace," 12. "Life and Death Struggle with the El Dorado," 13. "Advance Guard from an Alien World," 14. "Final Countdown," 15. "The Seven Emerge," 16. "Demon of the Water Planet," 17. "Between Life and Machine," 18. "The Strongest Woman in the Universe." Rated 13 and up for nudity, sexual situations, profanity, and violence. --Charles Solomon

Product Description
As the Space Race continues, Gene hasn't given up his obsession with finding the MacDougall Brothers. But confronted with more than one enemy in the race proves to be a challenging test for the young crew and its pilot. Soon, the crew of the Outlaw Star faces a new problem...money's tight again, so everyone starts taking small jobs to make ends meet and having Harry MacDougall take a special interests in Melfina can be a little unsettling. Can Gene protect her and at the same time protect himself from the Assassins known as the Anten Seven? *"Outlaw Star is cool. WE DIG IT!" - Gamers Republic *Outlaw Star is cool. Very Cool. A funky, fastpaced sci-fi adventure!"- -EX:Anime *Based on the successful Japanese manga by Takehito Ito

4.0 out of 5 stars Great value on quality show, February 9, 2001
By Steven Myers (SF Bay Area) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This is the second Outlaw Star DVD set. It's two discs, containing 9 episodes (10 - 18); mine came in a slimline case the size of a regular case, but some come in a double size case. Outlaw Star is a well-done, if not thoroughly original, science fiction/action show. The basic premise, as set up in the first disc set, has Gene Starwind end up with a highly advanced starship, the Outlaw Star, which is controlled by an artificial girl named Melfina. The pirates who built the ship and a pair named the McDougal brothers, hired to destroy it, are after him.

These episodes vary in quality. Some are individual and episodic; others tie into the main plotline, which involves the purpose for building the ship and creating Melfina. There is one bad episode here--the story is poor, the characters go off-model (they are drawn incorrectly), and the animation has corners cut all over the place--but the rest are of at least fair quality. If you liked the more humorous parts of the show from the first disc set, my two favorite episodes of the series so far are on this set. It's not perfect, but it is a good deal and a good show (doesn't every show vary in quality to some degree?). There is a continuing story, so you should start with the first set, not this one.
