#Gatchaman 2013 subtitle series#
I only wish that more than the first series was available. I highly recommend watching Alex Ross's youtube video (an American artist) regarding this. The animation for the time period is still extraordinary, with so much attention to detail.
#Gatchaman 2013 subtitle full#
Every Gatchaman episode is full of action, and each delves much deeper into the characters of the team than BOTP did. And no, there is no speech impediment either! There is a lot of scientific knowledge that is put into the show, and why it is important to preserve the ssages that are still very relative even today. Jinpei (Keyop) is funny and annoying, as any young boy would be. Jun (Princess) only has eyes for Ken, but he does not reciprocate her feelings, as he's more wrapped up in the mission and working as a pilot. Joe (Jason) frequently disagrees with Ken's (Mark) decisions, especially when they don't involve taking direct action. They frequently argue and fight with each other. Things aren't all sunshine and rainbows on the team either. Nambu, and led by Ken, are sent to deal with the latest attack. Ironically, most of these attacks are against the environment, and the Science Ninja Team, spear-headed by the brilliant Dr. Instead, you have a terrorist organization hell-bent on destroying the world and taking over. In the uncut Japanese version, you had fist-fights (non-existent in 1972 American cartoons unless it was re-runs of Popeye), and civilians being slaughtered by Galactor's newest terror! You also had some mild language. When I delved into Gatchaman, I was immediately enamored all over again, and frankly, I don't care if I never see another episode of "Battle of the Planets." For 1972, Gatchaman was cutting-edge. It would be years later that I would realize how much I'd missed.
#Gatchaman 2013 subtitle tv#
On the heel of "Star Wars", and along my favorite TV show at the time, "Battlestar Galactica," it was a show that was right up my alley! Five super-teens in an awesome spacecraft flying around and battling Zoltar from Planet Spectra. In 1978, I was seven years old when "Battle of the Planets" hit the networks. Or just stick the Japanese audio in and watch the subtitles. If you can find it I would recommend the ADV dub which is the closest to the original Japanese in terms of dialogue. There was another one called "Eagle Riders" out there but I've never actually seen it but I've heard it's the worst of the bunch. There are several English versions of this out there from the original "Battle of the Planets" which is a decent dub even with the inclusion of Keyop to the bad G-Force which added a lot of unnecessary dialogue and focused on them being able to fly for some reason. These people have actual lives outside of being the Science Ninja Team and don't just chill in their underwater base while waiting for the next attack. Instead of them being five orphans raised from birth to fight baddies with their "cerebonic implants", they're five highly trained and capable individuals who fight for freedom against a group of terrorists. What were they thinking? This is a much more mature story. And yes while I loved Keyop when I was 10, I seriously have a problem with him now. And best of all, no 7-Zark-7 and forcing a space opera theme on it. Bad guys were killed as well as innocent civilians. And let me tell you it was like night and day. And then, years later, I discovered it had been cobbled together from this show "Gatchaman" and I was interested in seeing how the show differed. And nobody really minded the shoddy animation that had been added to the show to pad out the run time after all the cuts.
And that the bad guys were polite enough to warn of their attack so everybody could evacuate the city. That all the explosions and people getting blown up were just robots.
We accepted the fact that nobody ever died. This was something new and exciting and never before seen. The very next day at school it was all kids could talk about. I remember being 10 and seeing the first episode of "Battle of the Planets" on TV.
