Hopefully you can still get the full set, which includes great extras - such as Japanese episodes #1 and 2, half of them missing from the English version."rauli" wrote:I loved watching it as a kid on tv in the eighties when i was about 5-10 years old. I cannot remember anything else at the time that was like it. Recently, by accident I saw a madman astroboy DVD at the video store, it was not even in the correct shelf! Some fool picked it up and left it somewhere else, they don't know what they are missing! But, that act allowed me to see that dvd with its cover and all these memories of astroboy started to rush back, from 20 years ago! I felt like I was a kid again and boy the pleasure of the nostalgia! I thought as I grabbed that DVD case into my hands in awe, I have to rent this dvd and did not regret it. I am now renting as many as the rental video store has but will start buying the DVD's soon.
Two of them certainly are (Skunk and Uran's voice actors came here)."rauli" wrote:BTW, I got a dvd of the new episodes of astroboy...they did a fairly good job at keeping the old feel, but all them shadows on their faces and other effects just don't quite make it astroboy. I guess you can't improve on something that was great in the first place and the voices, not close enough to the original. Surely the original voice actors are still alive.
