This tv series was absolutely superb. If you are feeling depressed about the world. Just watch this series and you are garaunteed to feel a lot better.
Respect 🙌 I'm that sad I've even got the original monkey from folk law tattooed on my arm, it's our monkey with his staff kicking through a cloud. I'm 51 and every now and then I try to get the cloud down but alas it never works😢
Strictly speaking, she's not "the Buddha" - there are many Buddhas, male and female. That's Kannon / Guan Yin, which is always shown as female. Kannon is the most important Buddha for a whole subset of Buddhist sects, which are the most popular branches in Japan. Her role is frequently compared to Virgin Mary. A figure of nobility, compassion, and grace.
@@APsupportsTerrorism Incorrect. In this JAPANESE production of a CHINESE story - they deliberately cast a woman to play the monk Tripitaka as well as casting a woman to play the Historical Buddha with whom Monkey is having a dialogue. Kannon/Guanyin IN THIS TV SERIES was played by a man, even though that manifestation of the Buddha of Compassion is most commonly considered female, as when Buddhism spread from India to China in the 8th Century, the Buddha of Compassion had a largely female following, those in charge didn't like that, so the Buddha of Compassion "underwent a procedure" and was henceforth considered female. Buddha nature transcends gender. Humans are a sexually dimorphic species so they only ever come as EITHER men or women, of those who wish to transition - some do, some don't.

" Fool! I hope it doesn't dazzle you, looking upon the New Sage of Heaven!" " I shall manage." Brilliant....couldn't make it up. Don't half miss Friday tea time in the early eighties!
Why didn’t anyone hire this dubbing team to handle every Kung Fu movie that came out in the 1970s!? There’s actual ACTING involved here and the voices fit the characters like a glove.
@@adamglenn5477 He died this year, sadly. The guy who voiced Pigsy also voiced Gollum in the cartoon film of Lord of the Rings - and a radio series, in which Legolas was voiced by the same guy who voiced Monkey!
@@MrAjaysparrowI'm 51 and still try 🤣😂 I've got the actual original monkey based on the folklore tattooed on my arm. He as a staff in his hand kicking through a cloud.
"come to the himalayas, monkey!" (Monkey summons his cloud and promptly whizzes off - arriving to meet a large Buddha straddling the divide between heaven and earth).. "I can seem big too!!" I wonder how close the English dubbing is to the original Japanese dialogue. The writers managed to combine the weighty and spiritual with the absurd and risible without mockery or disrespect. Quite a feat. He never leaves Buddha's hand.. Despite believing he'd traveled to the end of the world.. ( "Do you know me?" .. "Everything is within this and this is within everything".... "Monkey, in all that is. Everything has it's situation" ) It's been some time since I've seen this! The dialogue was brilliantly written though. When Buddah banishes and traps him in a mountain at the end of the episode to impress lessons of patience upon him he turns the sentiments of Buddah on their head humorously , shouting out in protest "You're doing it to yourself SO YOU SAY!! "IT IS YOU who is stuck in here!!"
All Monkey had to say is "I can't leave your hand for your hand and the Universe are one and neither has no end or beginning." And he would have ruled heaven.
Yeah, every time I have a cone or half a bottle of Scotch - or both, then I try harder, never bloody works though and the neighbors call the Cops to arrest me as I am jumping around my back yard....
As I remember it, Buddha use to appear as woman in order to seem more kind & less intimidating to mortals. The Goddess of Compassion (I forget how to spell her name) use to appear as a man so she wouldn't appear weak or an easy target, despite having a bodyguard.
Nooo. why did you cut it short before the ending ? the 5 pillars at the end of the universe.., he writes his name on one of the pillars and fly's back to Buddha only to have buddha show him her hand with his name written on one of her fingers.. Missed all the deep stuff as a kid, but watching it back on the dvd collection.. Some deep stuff in this :)
It's marvellously allegorical and symbolic whilst dressed in simple clothes. Monkey himself is uncontrolled thought or mind which is born from chaos. Only through tripitaka (prayer and meditation) can mind be controlled.
Great memories, I so wanted his staff, my mothers broom wasn't quite the same, though the settee made a good cloud substitute for flying, assuming the dog wasn't sat on it....
This was my favorite Monkey episode ever. Shame the next part isn't shown, after monkey graffitis the five pillars and thinks he is now the great sage Buddha holds up his/her hand and shows him the graffiti - he has not even escaped from Buddhas hand!
Talk about ending the clip too soon. When he gets to the end of the universe he sees five pillars. It turns out they are the fingers of the Buddha. He never left her hand.
Ha! Yes, sorry. In the book Monkey writes Great Sage Equal of Heaven on The Buddha's middle finger and urinates on the thumb. Buddha pushes Monkey out of the Western Heaven and transforms his hand into the five elements, making Wu Hsing Shan and imprisons Monkey there for 500 years.
Can anybody remember the other one from 1980 tv series sword fighting heavy tattoo long hair Japanese i think or could of been Chinese they had wrist bands what had sharp blades English dubbed can not remember the name but watched every episode
Oh, that's a cheat. You shouldn't stop there. We know what's gonna happen. He'll arrive at the end of the universe and find he is still in Buddha's hand.
if he had stayed a tender of the horses (lowest job in heaven) and went about hi way without being conceited, would he eventually have made his way to the top and be recognized?
The sir of on on to me is the productions of realignment of time before it hire me to one in, in this way it bought out the care for but if it funds into the game it works out cry out and then the in so of me. The productions for this one is a hell holder to div the c but and however the domiciliary of law is?
Our mum banned us from watching this show because of the violence. So, naturally, we watched every episode in the other room. LOL

He sounds like an old welsh bloke at times😆

This is Japanese TV series not chinese
You can edit it all you want a bet is a bet...
As a kid I tried so desperately to do the Nimbus whistle for my own cloud.
Heffsta02 sadly the nimbus only carries immortals so you were doomed to fail
@@michaelbootes4822 well, the one in Dragon Ball carries only people with pure hearts...so there is still chance in that universe...
I still try as an adult.. you never know.. lol
i'm pretty sure anyone who grew up on this show tried to summon the nimbus cloud at one point or another in their life
@@MrAjaysparrowI'm 51 and still try 🤣😂 I've got the actual original monkey based on the folklore tattooed on my arm. He as a staff in his hand kicking through a cloud.
Way back in the 80’s this put me on the Buddhist path.
this show never gets old XD

They don't make em like this anymore :(
I loved waching this back in 1979 brilliant show love opening title music still remember it to this day great show
I'm beginning to see where the main concept for dragon ball came from .
This is a relell of "Journey to the west"... but this is more light hearted
All Monkey had to say is "I can't leave your hand for your hand and the Universe are one and neither has no end or beginning." And he would have ruled heaven.
Buddha knew this.. but had to make monkey find out himself because his arrogance will not allow him to believe buddha if told...
The only maxim I remember from the show:
Whatever you do, you do to yourself
@@snarkybuttcrack ua-cam.com/video/LehnGZDdXeo/v-deo.htmlsi=AkUoB5F23D7c8X6S
"The whole universe was buddha?"
"always has been"
you cut out the best part of this scene...at the end...
Anyone out there still trying to summon their own cloud?
Yeah, every time I have a cone or half a bottle of Scotch - or both, then I try harder, never bloody works though and the neighbors call the Cops to arrest me as I am jumping around my back yard....
LOVED this as a kid....my brother, sister and I never missed an episode :-) Or "The Water Margin". Thanks for posting.
I loved the character of the Buddha in this as a kid-
watched this when i was a kid.loved it sooo much.
Ur beautiful. I would monkey magic ur nimbus cloud! Rwow!
If only it had run a little longer, Monkey has a pee up against one of her fingers.
Ahh, I loved Tripitaka.
I was 5 years old when I first saw this and I don't know why it striked me so hard when I saw that monkey didn't pass the hand of Buda.
He travels a lot but never get out of buddha hand.
I was 4 and my mom said that's why you messed up when she heard the theme tune. I used to sneak downstairs to watch it when everyone was asleep.
As I remember it, Buddha use to appear as woman in order to seem more kind & less intimidating to mortals. The Goddess of Compassion (I forget how to spell her name) use to appear as a man so she wouldn't appear weak or an easy target, despite having a bodyguard.
This Buddha, Kannon, is always female.
I think that was the goddess Guanyin who sometimes chose to appear in her male aspect when travelling
You're thinking of Guanyin. But I guess the Buddha might also do that.
This and the Water margin... memories.
Nooo. why did you cut it short before the ending ? the 5 pillars at the end of the universe.., he writes his name on one of the pillars and fly's back to Buddha only to have buddha show him her hand with his name written on one of her fingers..
Missed all the deep stuff as a kid, but watching it back on the dvd collection.. Some deep stuff in this :)
Not an important detail, and it interrupts what you're getting at here, but he also urinated on one of the 'pillars'.
Fully
@@theomnicontentchannel2203 I only urinate on pillars.

Haha.Monkey pissed on Buddhas hand. Needless to say Monkey lost the bet and was sent down to earth. But not with out a fight.

Very disappointing that you left off the important part.
yes, very. lol

Doesn't he put some graffiti on one finger and then piss on another?
Not surprised Buddha drops a mountain on him.
In the Hong Kong version he did piss in Buddha's hand, but not sure if he did in the actual ancient novel.......
oh yeah
thats why he said "i always thought you was a fella!" love that line... :)
Charles Stockings he calls a demon a poofter in another episode
I have the boxset😎👍
The great sage
1:10 - "I can change into anything! I'm immortal!" , well if you believe in reincarnation then that's a given, and nothing special!

The latin american translation of this series is a state of the art.
South Americas isn’t Latin.
Latin is European.
English words have meanings.
Please respect our indigenous languages and names we gave ourselves.
whats the original tittle of this movie?
Episode 1 of the Monkey series. It was titled Monkey Goes Wild About Heaven.
how the Buddha be a woman?
ruzickaw because she can
There are many Buddhas, male and female.
This one is Kannon / Guan Yin, which tends to be the most popular one in Japanese Buddhism.
Why does buddha have a greek accent?
Balendula idk 😀
why、his name was translated monky? His name is song-gokuu here in japan
so buddha was gender fluid ... 🤣
omg this dub is horrible
