  • I hate asians they ruin everything

  • It dosen't look like it stays true to Halo. Every Halo fan knows all covenant vehicles explode in a purple and pink explosion. Also the hunter has orange blood no blue blood. Also grunts don't have green blood they have blue blood. You'll see what I'm talking about in the review. Sorry if I sound so specific but Halo fans demand that the epidsodes follow the game. Also I'm not a big fan of anime cartoons. The sound was great but I don't think I'd buy unless it had a different artwork style.

  • Im pretty sure this gonna be the next halo game, i saw the origin and its kind of the same i guess :3

  • anime is shit and needs to die

  • I didn't like this way too japanesey. I mean the elites are wearing fucking kimonos. What...the....fuck?

  • I think its hilarious how some of these HALO fans are bitching and complaining for finally getting a HALO movie, when that is what they have been asking for several years now. I guess some people can't appreciate good art after all. :(

  • What is the point of having a unknowledgeable ignorant pair of tits that just reads it off a script if you're not going to show the tits?

  • on the special features in halo legends, they say that Master Chief dies.

  • i wouldn't have said that odd one out was the weakest of the clips if anything the package was. The best one was probably the babysitter by far.

  • Spartan 1337 eh? (pause at 1:37)

  • WTF did I just watch...

  • I reckon this should have all been done cinematically, like the ingame cut scenes.

  • This looks great!

  • Pokemon: 90 viewers. With master chief: +3500000 viewers

  • But master chief is 1337 to be eaten by a dino :/

  • Comment removed

  • Halo now can be compared to pokemon... Just what the halo franchise needed...

  • halo legends kind of made halo look gay, anime.... really... halo origins was the only tolerable one

  • Made in CHina

  • The Package is obviously the best one, except for dr halsey saying cortana's lines :S

  • @aberos188 Technically its Cortana saying her lines. As Cortana is based of Halseys mind, plus its a prequel so she is saying them first but i get what you mean

  • This movie sucks

    

  • Odd one out is truly a fitting title

  • The duel was the best in my opinion

  • @raptureozhiphop you are right

    best story(it brought a tear to my eye) best action sequence,best drawing style.....

  • The Odd one was good! Not a failure bitch!

  • "Sigh". Nerds will never be happy.It was crap , but I gotta give odd one out its props.they took DBZ and Halo,fucked it and gave birth something entertaining.

  • "Homecoming" was the only one that I enjoyed, as it was the only one out of ALL of the other stories that was canon. All of the others had huge canon flaws.

    And may I add, Dr Halsey was getting pretty old when she first started the Spartan II project, and she looks like she's in her 20's in Legends.....ugh, they tore Halo apart >_>

  • @LordDemosair Wait what were the flaws in Babysitter and the duel?

  • @Douchiemcgigglestein Well besides those two

  • Why didn't Key Visual Arts (Air, Kanon, Clannad, Angel Beats!) did any anime segments for Halo Legends?

    They're made emotional storylines and amazing charcter/scene designs.

    Halo Legends should make another anime segment about the Noble Team and the events which leads up to the start of Halo: Reach and Thom's death.

  • Out of all these episodes. I praise Bones Studio as the best animators.

  • Say "visually arresting" one more time. Go on, make my day.

  • lieks to me fucking boring

  • I don't really think anime compliments the Halo universe. i'd much rather see a live Halo movie, or something made in a similar fashion to the game graphics themselves... Not something that looks like it could be aired on Cartoon Network and watched by little kids... That might just be me...

  • I can't help but feel let down by the review of odd one out "an interesting failure" is hardly what I'd call it, more like "a comical adventure for those who would like a break from the serious story of halo" literally the whole thing was bloody brilliant. Beautiful visuals coupled with amazing music and gripping stories, just go and buy it and you'll see what I mean! (or torrent it if you're a cheapskate)

  • Halo Legends was honestly an abomination.

  • There are 7 reasons why (I think) you should watch Halo Legends

    1. It is Master Chief's firs appearance since 2007 (Halo 3).

    2. You get to see what a Forerunner looks like...

    3. The Package looks like Halo in the Xbox 720!

    4. See the Elite home world.

    5. A SPARTAN gets stomped on......by a dinosaur?

    6. Female SPARTANS!

    7. Contains some of the most epic songs from Halo: CE and Halo 2.

    I'm sure you guys don't agree with me, but that is just what I think.

  • LOL 343k VIEWS LOLOLOLOLOLOL

  • Why the fuck do people hate this? the music is amazing, the stories are amazing...i mean...it's butiful

  • @renanddookie2094 I know right? People for some reason hate anime. I thought people love beautiful animation, epic action scenes, and master artwork. I guess anime is one of those magnificent things in this world that people look down on or something, it happens a lot to many different things in this world that are truly amazing. HALO: Legends introduced me to the HALO universe and HALO: Legends is the reason why I own an XBOX360 with HALO: Reach!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO TAKE THAT HATERS....

  • @turo991 HALO: Legens is nothing but mere experiment and a contest among animators in Japan. In short words, it's a mixture between the best animator studios in Japan.

    Odd one out is also to be noted not a part of the series but a parody and a comedy made by one of the most famous anime studios in Japan, Toei Animation.

    Currently this might be a secret contest of who will make the Halo movie

  • I've seen it and it fucking suck I wanted to find a random jap and just fucking punch him

  • I thought the episode in halo legends that had the best English dub is prototype

  • Halo is awesome, anime is awesome, put those two together, ftw!

  • humor? they make spartans look weak and stupid... and what the fuck is that 1:10 it looks like it belongs in a show for children! ugh i HATE manga

  • Mamoru Oshii is the director of the critically acclaimed movie Ghost in the Shell and Tessho Genda is one of Japan's most prolific voice actors.

    Genda is known for doing the Japanese voices of the Nine-Tails from Naruto, Ryūsaku from Akira, Optimus Prime (Convoy in Japan) from Transformers (both cartoon and live-action), and even does Mace Windu from Star Wars and Tigger from Winnie the Pooh! In Halo Legends, he does Master Chief (The Package).

  • The most famous people, on the Japanese side, that did work in Halo Legends are Mamoru Oshii and Tesshō Genda...

  • lol she said tht anime cartoon was a fail

  • I totally understand why people would be upset. It's like this, Anime fans maybe okay with it, but the thing is. It's like if your favorite anime like, bleach, inuyasha, etc had US military based things, and the characters didn't have over sized eyes, and wasn't just anime in general. Sure maybe we Halo fans would enjoy it, but you anime fans would not. It's not nice to throw your culture into it and care less if the actually FANS like it or not.

  • HAHAHAHAHA they give it to you an a disc you cant play on the xbox.

  • I think the last 3, Prototype, The Babysitter, and The Package are the best ones.

  • @richrocks95 But the Origins one and Homecoming are pretty interesting.

  • THE BABYSITTER is the best one

  • i love anime

    i love halo

    i love this

  • My top 3 favourite ones and why:

    Homecoming: Very interesting look at the spartan projects and the emotional impact on the spartans/children. Also gives a clear background story to the spartan project. Top-notch animation too.

    The Package: Bad-ass sequence with awesome visuals and some creative ideas. Halsey's actor was pretty bad, but other than that it was good.

    And my favourite one: The babysitter. Guest star: Dutch (From ODST).Similar animation to homecoming. Fantastic characters. SICK!!

  • Origins was fucking amazing, Odd one out was retarded and the rest was meh. The dvd should only have contained Origins. I had goosebumps for twenty minutes after watching that masterpiece.

  • The Package was Ok I did not like how Dr. Halsey was portrayed.

  • I liked Origins, The Duel meh, could be better (but was ok) I really hated how they portrayed the female Sangheili I would expect even the females to be strong and honorable, Homecoming I did not like at all because it is obvious that the artists who made the animation have never played Halo, Odd One Out was a joke in other words I hated it, Prototype was pretty good, The baby sitter I didnt really like the art style in it, but it had one of the best stories

  • FUCK YOU MASTER 1337 IS THE BEST YOU NUB

  • People hate it because it has nothing to do about halo, a lot of stories that gave no sence... exepct orgins

  • I love how master chief has a "1337" on his armor

  • @catalog343 thats not master chief, dumbass.

  • ive got that movie, maibe i can send it to some people

  • Since it's anime OVA, Halo Legends should have had -

    - epic J-rock/J-pop music to their ending themes/credits.

    - Chibis in "Odd One Out" (since it's comedy)

    - Omakes (anime bonus extras at the end of an episode. Mostly comedy).

  • @rubyjuly94 chibis would have ruined Odd One Out's sense of humor.

  • @Lannnyto Chibis? Why?

  • I don't get why people throw so much shit at Halo Legends. It's pretty good, and it's the Halo Movie we've all been waiting for.

  • @bestshowontheweb no it isn't idiot

  • @DvNezarto You know, at this point I'm just happy that there is a movie about Halo at all.

  • Odd One out the Weakest?

    That Shit Was The Funniest thing...EVER.

    "I'm One heck Of a Mama Myself!"

  • my favorite was odd one out cuz thats what halo would look like dbz style cuz akira-san worked on it :D

  • You see,in his armor chest is written "L33T (1337)" LOL

  • Poor Frank

  • I'm sure the japs jumped all over the fact that the elites are just like htem

  • here's my review:

    "Fuck yeah."

  • I loved it. From a storytelling and character development perspective, Bungie are generally pretty shitty and this package was a great way to explain the mythos behind the franchise without having to worry about the game part of it. Halo is basically the Matrix of the video game medium, it's all action and flash while the story and characters play second (third?) fiddle. Matrix benefited greatly from a short story anime compilation, I feel the same for Halo.

  • How did people not like Halo legends, it was awesome, and Odd one out was very different and amusing to watch, but, duel and prototype were just awesome

  • odd one out

    you just disgraced the entire franchise

    are you fucking happy animie? dear lord i mean come on you showed about 10 seconds and it was too much

  • Fucking japs fail, i get it mc's fist is going pretty fast but you don't need to draw in the wind breaking

  • Halo Legends was awesome!

    Origins: Summed up the whole story of the Halo universe through the rampant eyes of Cortana.

    The Duel: Showed us the nature, culture, and home world of the Elites, and also showed how did the Arbiter become a mark of shame.

    Homecoming: Focused on the tragedies involving the SPARTAN-IIs

    Prototype: Involves a Marine who disobeys orders to save lives.

    The Babysitter: Tells the rivalry between SPARTANs and ODSTs.

    The Package and Odd One Out: Intense action and humor.

  • wtf are wrong with you people? its a friken MOVIE what did u think it was gonna be? ok? if you dont like it dont comment on this

  • Odd one out was pretty cool.

  • Could you people be any more dense? This isn't a god damn game, so stop expecting like it would be. Stop being so narrow-minded.

  • awesome

  • Halo legends was awesome, the only two i didnt really like was the package and odd one out, the other ones were awesome

  • I watched this last night ... in my opinion almost as confusing as neon genesis evangelion lol

  • I loved this. I dont care how much people hate Halo. If they cant like this film then I just pity them.

  • There is NOTHING wrong with this. Stop whining about it, because if you cant deal with something different its going to suck when halo 4 comes out and you realize that 343 industries wasn't made by cloning the DNA of everyone on the Bungie team.

  • homecoming and add one out..... these both were fucking shit

  • @urwaldaffenschmidt agreed those were the shity ones the rest are ok

  • the package was awesome but i was confused that the mastchief has mark VI armor. package plays before halo 1. he becames mark VI in halo 2 -.........?

  • @urwaldaffenschmidt That was Mark IV armor, not Mark VI.

  • even the sidestory on the terminals in halo 3 odst seemed to have more developement.

  • this film was really nice, origins was great it showed me lots of things that i didnt know about the halo universe.

  • The stories were nice but they were presented weird. Like the dying Marine randomly yelling out "why can't you just be human?". WTF. OOO sucked and didnt even get a chuckle from me. Next Time make sure Americans are making it.

  • Red vs Blue > This shit.

  • I just bought this today. It's an interesting way to expand on the halo canon. The first two and the last shorts were amazing and gave me chills.

  • your closed minds make me sad... haters... it´s not that bad... it´s just diferent

  • Too everyone wondering why people hate it, it's because Halo is typically a very maintstreamed, American FPS game. Now throw a foreign influence into the mix and you have upset fans, why? Who knows, but the irony I found in this is that they had Japanese animators (That probably contributed to the tremendous quality of animation) while the game has experienced little success in Japan, along with the Xbox 360. It's just a difference in culture, and Americans tend to make their views known louder.

  • @LostKitsuneRonin especially when the series itself a piss poor story filled with a shit ton of plotholes.

  • @Killer4741

    I lol'd...

  • @LostKitsuneRonin I'm Norwegian.... I abseloutly hate it.

  • @LostKitsuneRonin if you don't like a certain thing from a different culture it doesn't matter i persionally hate most anime but there are a few that are good and i like those this was not one and just because it's a different culture doesn't matter i didn't like the animation like alot of anime not all anime take alot of shortcuts like i liked odd one out, origins, and some of prototype. plus it skewed alot of halo lore

  • @LostKitsuneRonin Not exactly. It's like us Americans taking Japan's favorite anime franchise, and putting our own things in it, and sending it back even though we could give a shit about anime. There. See, Halo isn't like Anime, it's not meant to be, so I can very well understand why people are pissed off.

  • @LostKitsuneRonin I mean you act as if Americans tend to make their views louder, though we are not the ones taking anime and throwing American influences in it. Would you like for Bleach, Inuyasha, or anything of that nature to have normal sized eyes, and everyone uses guns instead swords and magic? Of course not. Americans aren't the ones doing that, it's this whole anime based fan group. Ofcourse I like Halo legends, but they should have left out the whole anime ways of doing things.

  • @Rulictar Americans aren't remaking japanese animated cartoons because there's no money in it. Another thing alot of the so called "american" cartoons that we all enjoy were/are actually animated in korea and japan (avatar, thundercats(new and old one), X-men evolution, boondocks etc). You can't exactly blame korea or japan for making the animation in their style, but you can blame the american companies that request it done that way. If you're mad at someone make it microsoft.

  • @LostKitsuneRonin One example of what I mean by "an anime way of doing things" is when on "The Package" Ghost, while in the Spartan Suit prototype, he runs towards the wraith to stick a bomb on it, but while running he has his arms behind him, it just looks silly. It belongs in Naruto, inuyasha or bleach, not Halo.

  • @zorbaknecromancer if u go on halopedia and search forerunner and scroll down theres a picture drawn by bungie of a forerunner in like battle gear

  • @arvin4445 Yeah, i just saw it.First thing i thought was that it looks sort of like a geth from mass effect

  • i liked halo legends, don't buy it if you don't like anime idiots.

  • OK GUYS ODD ONE OUT IS NON CANON and in fact if halo legends did not exist we will never know what a forerunner looks like also if it does not Exist we will never know what happened to master chief before fall of reach

  • i can't believe all the shit some ppl are throwing at halo legends, and another thing for those who said that this ruined halo, we both kno that if u let this ruin halo for u u were never a real fan to begin with

  • @klampcamper This is ruining Halo you fuck.

  • @siggibiggy except for the odd one out or watever it's called, no, no it isn't and as said in the previous comment, ppl like u aren't real halo fans, so ur opinion is irrelevant

  • @klampcamper I'm not a real fan because I don't like stupid stuff? That makes me more than a Halo fan than you. What you are, is a fanboy, loving it whatever it is.

    But I don't want stupid stuff in my Halo.

  • @siggibiggy i didn't bother reading ur comment, u not being a real halo fan and all

  • @klampcamper No, I'm begin a fan, not a fanboy.

    I don't like dumb stuff.

    And if I agreed to like this, I would be just a fanboy for liking shit that I normaly hate.

  • @siggibiggy u dumber then i thot, plz don't tell me ur one of those idiots who thinks u have to read a comment to reply to it, then again u can't rlly tell me since i'm not reading ur comments

  • @klampcamper You call me dumb when you can't even spell, and I'm not even English.

  • @siggibiggy im assuming ur tryin to prove to me that ur not dumb and that im am the dumb one, lets just say ur not doing a good job by wasting ur time by writning a reply to me wen u kno im not gonna read it

  • @klampcamper Why do you keep responding? I'm not going to stop, ever. I will have the last word.

    I'm saying you're a fanboy, not a fan like me.

  • @siggibiggy alright i'm done with this, u keep sending replies wen u kno i'm not gonna read them, ur retarted and on a related note ur blocked

  • @klampcamper Bye

  • @klampcamper You can have the last word by posting a comment and then clicking on his name, which brings you to his channel and and then you can choose to block him.

  • @iluvx360 i kno and i alredy did but that doesn't work all the time with my account for some reason

  • @klampcamper go to one of his videos, dislike it :) (not necessary). Then go to his video list and click "See all videos" Then it will link you to a page that you can click on his channel and block communications. :)

  • @klampcamper Oh snap!

  • @wallhackergotdammit oh snap indeed 

  • Odd one out was just a step to far

  • I don't know what everyone is complaining about, I thoroughly enjoyed every one of these (exept mabye odd one out) they were all just so awsome, and if u hate it cus it's anime, then F U! I think the anime was a perfect way to show the stories that were told

  • I bought this movie new for $5.00

  • red vs. blue with animation is better than this

  • WHAT... THE...  FUCK...?

  • Why do people hate this? I honestly didn't enjoy Origins and Homecoming, but Prototype, The Duel, and The Package are great, and Odd One Out was funny :P

    If you hate it because it's "anime," that's either shallow or racist. Get over it: Cartoons are different in different countries. I'd actually prefer the Japanese style for a Halo cartoon. If you don't like it because they're cartoons, why watch it?

  • What the hell is your problem guyz. Youre just comfused because its something diferent. Yes, i was a litle surprised they were doing anime of halo but for someone who read the halo books (wich are as realistic as something can get) i find halo legends very realistic. Get over it and accept changes. I bet you wont buy halo 4 JUST because "its not bungie"...

  • omfg. the forerunners look iike majin buu at 2:22

  • @LolwutFlying those are... primitive elites... its only normal they looked that way

  • @LolwutFlying those are elites

  • Lol 1337 likes :D Also, I didn't think Halo Legends was all that bad. I kinda liked it

  • Way to ruin Halo, a nice middle finger to the fans, a big shit on one of the best gaming series of all time.

  • @OZORxORON middle finger to the fans? really i loved this its a way to show how far halo has come to beat all other compeitors including in my opinion call of duty medal of honour and battlefield

  • @OZORxORON no it's not just becuase it's anime does'nt mean its bad

  • This is a shame for Halo, how could they let this happen?? The graphics are sad, and the story itself other than Origins are pathetic. Its an insult to all Halo fans.

  • @Urrolnis Way to troll, way to troll. "The graphics are sad". Well, its anime, what can you say? Of course it looks different from the games. Origins was nice but Cortana starts describing events that never happened. If you don't like the anime style, all you have to do is watch "The Package". Certainly didn't insult me or most of the other thousands who have watched them.

  • Red vs Blue: Animated.

  • I <3 the Halo series and i used to like Dragonball when i was a kid, but this?

    THIS IS AN ABOMINATION! KILL IT! KILL IT! KILL IT NOW!!!!!!

  • Rooster teeth is better

  • Homecoming is the very black sheep of Halo Legends...

  • I like spartan 1337 because he's a mess up. :p

  • WTF she never talks about prototype

  • eliets look nasty without armor

  • if the spartans had shields it would be amazing

  • Master Chief is a Fucking Beast, is Master Chief 

  • its those fuckin japs

  • The only one I actually didn't like was the last short. Every other one was done very well in it's own right. The oriental style of "The Duel" took some getting used to, but I ended up liking it in the end. And some of the others almost had me in tears. Due to that, "Odd One Out" was a refreshing break from the deep feelings of all the others, even though it could have been a little better. Overall I think this does great at showing the true colors of the Halo Universe.

  • the whole point of odd one out was to have fun and not be constrained by the halo mythos, everything you probably did not like about was put there to make it hammy and stupid

  • can anyone tell me the music at the beggining and end of POROTOTYPE?

    ps, sorry for double comment

  • can someone tell me the music played at the beggining and end of Be Human.

  • @TutosBomb They must've ruined you, too. Racist prick...

  • Halo Legends is the best thing ever.

  • I don't see whats wrong with this, its nicely animated and does add to the halo universe. If you can't bear to watch this then you will probably hate halo 4 considering its going to be made by practically another company.

  • 1:03 bitches need to practice their aim

  • Japanese fucking ruin everything

  • @TutosBomb FUUUC K YOU
