You can get a "fan" (ie unofficial) DVD set of this series with an English dub. I own such a set and have seen all 52 episodes of it. I watched it from December 15, 2011 to January 3, 2012.
Toy companies and merchandising, my friend. Perish the thought that children could be introduced to real social issues like false accusation and lack of a mother figure. Not to mention determination and mutual friendship in the face of realistic consequences.
The author of this "fan" DVD has spent lots of time properly syncing the English language audio to exactly match the lip movement of the official French language DVD. And a fact too. Sebastian is voiced by Adrian Knight, who voices Tao in MCOG and Telemachus in Ulysses 31.
You can get " fan" DVD's for the English dub for this show. Just search Google for it. I have ordered such a "fan" DVD set and I plant to play all 52 episodes in the December 2011 to January 2012 period. It was the popularity of English language "fan" MCOG DVD's that lead Fabulous Films to eventually relase it offically on 30/06/2008. The "fan" Belle & Sebation I'm about to get is the French official DVD mixed with English language Nickoleodon broacdast copied in to VHS tape.
I have a web address where you can buy the complete series on DVD but for some reason it won't let me post it here. Email me at rpha.icehawks@gmail.com and I'll forward the web site to you.
I hated this show because everybody wanted to kill the dog. When I was a kid I used to wonder why the hell they would want to kill the dog, especially when she helped people. Didn't she have a puppy too?
Awsesome show. The time in the left corner was about the time i remember it being on because i used to watch it before school and the ABC. You don't this quality of animation around anymore :(
Does anybody know where I can download the series? It must be available online because some people are selling it on DVD's, and they are not the copyright holders either. Please email me or respond if you see it available online. Thanks.
Very adorable series from my young life, and a beautifull musiek in it! Even now, we have to learn a lot of things from the personnages and their relations in true life, relation between the grand-father and his litte boy, and relations and respects between humans and animals and nature!
used to watch it in French in Belgium. Maybe once i watched it in English or Italian. Cannot remember. All I know is that I used to watch the French version.
I'm 17, cause I found that anime show last year in February and I never watched that when I was young, cause it wasn't on in the 90s like Maya the Bee when I started to watch it in Polish when I was little, cause my dad video tape the episodes, okay move on to that show and I was never there in the 80s. The English version, but why they made the song short, no words were translated and the opening scenes isn't the same as Japanese original scenes opening
I always thought this cartoon was the cause for so many of our generation to be on antidpressants. Kids lookin for his mom, and people are trying to kill his dog. Crazy. But it brings back memories. Friends to this day for some reason have blocked this show completely out of their minds and think Ive made it up.
awesome! I wasn't able to find the english version. thanks for the add! I remember watching with the ever so awesome..mysterious cities of gold and the little prince.
Now that I listen to the theme again, you're right. I also think it's cool that they kept the Japanese names in the credits unlike most U.S. translations of anime during the '80s which tried to pass the shows off as Western creations. I love Shuichi Seki's character designs (he worked on many of Nippon Animation's World Masterpiece Theater series in addition to B&S).
Except the copyright year in the credits at the end is wrong... the show actually aired in Japan during 1981-82.
YOu made my year!! I aboslutely adored this show as a child and literally had tears running down my face as I listened and watched the theme song 15 years later... does anyone have any idea how I can track down the dvd /videos of the ENGLISH version?
@RowieFan Good luck man I been looking for it myself. I loved this cartoon as a kid and I always wanted to have a little dog I could put in my front pocket like Sebastian used to lol! OH THE MEMORIES :)
@RowieFan Oh trust me dude I been looking for it myself and I can only find it in spanish. I don't mind spanish since it's actually the language I first watched it in when I was little but then later on I watched it in english back when Nickelodeon was good.
Talk about pure GOLD! Is this a real show? I love RARE shows like this. I wish The Hub, or Cartoon Network would focus on getting blocks of these to air on Saturday & Sunday Mornings. Imagine the ratings they could get. All of us retro fans now have kids, nephews, young cousins. We would watch it, then also get the kids in our family to watch it. Networks would make money on shows they don't even pay to produce now. Why can't they get that in their heads? Thumbs this up, and spread the idea.
This was one of my favorite shows as a kid. I never missed an episode.. I remember you had to watch them in order..Sebastian was searching for his mother and everyone was trying to catch the "great white monster", Belle.

Fabulous Films is trying to do a DVD, but they're having trouble locating the English masters. So who knows when/if it will come.
