Is the fat guy the voice of Bender?

[composerdoh]

@Georgiacatcrimson However, I have to say that I still prefer the music to the american version over that of the Japanese original.

[composerdoh]

@Georgiacatcrimson I understand your point, and I too prefer the original, particularly watching it now as an adult. However, I've read that the Americans who bought the rights to King Beast Golion didn't really know how to translate the japanese into English, and also, much of the footage was probably way too violent for American TV. There were fairly strict censorship rules about children's programming in the US, particularly in the 80's.

You are a fucking loser. Who takes cartoons that serious ? I guarantee you have WAY too many comic books and/or action figures. Enjoy that.

[Georgiacatcrimson]

A prime example of mudering a probably underrated, certailnly underappreciated foreign anime! The plot was screwed up, the true essence was taken away, and all I could think of would be the "Battle Of The Planets" for the 1980's. Heck, I would rather watch Robotech II: The Sentinals then thie so-called Voltron: The Legend Begins DVD. Man was our youth wasted >:

is that the voice of Optimus Prime on this intro?? Sounds like it

Zarkon's army always makes me think of the Dark Eldar from Warhammer 40k.
