8:11 - Well to be fair, plenty of anime always seem to cheap out on actually giving talking animals proper lip synching more times than they even need to. And still do to this day for some stupid reason.😓
Bennet literally hit my button at the end. "Checking out Trinity Blood" ooooo....oooo....OOOOO. Sorry loved that anime and it's a shame it'll never be finished, like the manga.
If Jin's hair was curlier than spikier, I would have thought it was Amuro Ray making proclamations of beating a mutant baby out of someone's womb. Jin's 1970-ish character design just adds to the likeness to Amuro's One Year War era design, even Jin's modern era clothes look like Amuro's civilian outfit, minus the yellow sweater.
People, I swear a decent amount of Shotaro Ishinomori’s works are good. It’s just that incompetent morons like Eiji Tsuburaya’s own son and a few people who do some adaptations of his works are just cashing in on a dead man who had more talent in his drawing hand than the corporate suits trying to replicate it.
Yeah, to think that the Co.Creator of Godzilla and Creator of Ultraman would have a son who was too stupid to see that Working on this story would be a nightmare instead of a Goldmine!
See now I'm curious- is Genma Wars a manga he drew that is WAY better than this adaptation... or is the story just as off-putting here and when you say most of his works are good you're NOT counting Genma Wars?
@@danielramsey6141 Akira Tsuburaya is Eiji’s own youngest and only surviving son, which unfortunately doesn’t help things as his other sons unluckily lived much shorter lives.
I have grown to hate Media Blasters more and more with the passage of time. Not just because of the haphazard localizations of anime that didn't even need to be localized in the first place, but because they're a bunch of bastards that refuse to relicense most of the IPs they snatched up for streaming, including the really good stuff like Tekkaman Blade

Ah, the good old fashioned insanity of a terrible 2000s anime. Really makes for a refreshing change from the usual mid-tier insanity of a modern anime.

Good to see you back in action, Sage. Didn't expect your return to be with an anime this bad. Thought there'd be a progression before tackling something like that. Keep up the good work.
Oof, a KareKano mention, hits me right in my shriveled, crippled old anime grognard heart. At least that high school anime had the decency to say "yeah, these kids definitely had sex."
Me: (Casually watching video) Sage: "Classics like Cosmo Warrior Zero, Ikki Tousen, and His and Her Circu-" Me: (Perks up) WAITWHA-? Sage: "What the fu-" Me: I KNOW! I was interested, but now I am *fascinated!*
@@danielg.w5733 Shotarō Ishinomori was also infamous for being as overworked and messed over as Sōji Yamakawa, one of the dudes behind many Japanese Pop Culture precedents.
Good to have you back, Bennett! I might have not seen Genma Wars but it doesn't stop me from disliking Media Blasters even more. Those guys really knew how to pick'em... and dub them.
With the mention of "Garzey's Wing" at 7:39 and 35:37, I have something to say that I have wanted to get off my chest for a long time; but couldn't find the right time to do so. This probably isn't the best place to do that, but at this point, it is either now or never. I hate to be an Oancitizen, but when you gave your .Hack//SIGN review the moniker "The Origins of Isekai," that is historically inaccurate. Chronologically speaking, the origin of the isekai genre dates back as far as the Japanese folktale of Urashima Taro. But the real kicker? The first isekai anime to ever air in Japan was in 1983 and is known as "Aura Battler Dunbine," and while Dunbine would not be available to watch outside of Japan until 2003; it had a spin-off anime that was released in North America around 1996. "What is that spin-off's name?" one person (at the most) in this comment section might be wondering? It is, wait for it; ......"Garzey's Wing". I swear that I am not joking when I say that the anime OVA we know as "Garzey's Wing" is the first isekai anime to have reached North American shores.
Unfortunately learning about this anime inspired me because a goon who gets turned into a helpful dog for the protagonist is actually an interesting idea.
I actually also vibe with him never even considering being turned back. Why the fuck would you want to NOT be a dog? WTF is asked of a dog from day to day? Exactly, nothing. Only thing better would be being a cat.
Anime staffer: "Hey Boss don't you think this pointless sex and violence in this anime is rather pointless and we should be focusing on improving the story and animation." Anime Boss: "QUIET YOU WE HAVE A SHOW TO SELL AND IT'S TOO BORING WITHOUT IT!"
pointless nudity. Fanservice sells, presumably? Jean has 2 seconds of bare breasts with the girl when he first meets her, then leaves her, then comes back to rescue her from being sacrificed. The scene sage shows with the bouncing is topless non travelling on the back of the wolf. So...its not even a lot of sex as such. And I guess they intended them to serve as...bonding for the main characters? So, laziness.
Hey Sage, it like seeing a friend I have not see in while. I must say a line you said while reviewing Ninja Scroll lives rent in mind. Lord Gemma wasn't giving a fuck while giving a fuck. Classic 😊
@@popcultureoverdosed I think Brightburn is an unintended satire on how not to become a parent to someone who isn’t only a terrible kid, but also a humanlike alien who can eat humans like him/her/them. Also, even the most humanlike of aliens have incomprehensible Blue and Orange morality.
A brilliant return with a brilliantly crappy anime to kick off said return…true to form Sage! Welcome back! **Hears Trinity Blood is gonna be reviewed…is happy**
In the god-awful Anime film Ultraman: The Adventure Begins animated by Studio Sign and Ashi Productions and produced by Tsuburaya Productions with writers from Hanna-Barbera, the whole thing was a mess from the start. It was supposed to be an anime TV series but then turned into a film with soon-to-be Exosquad creator Jeff Segal called in to fix the script to make it from an unfinished TV series to a film. And later Jeff to have his name removed from the credits at his own request. And after seeing the film I can see why Jeff wanted his name removed from the film's credits.
So I was actually a seriously brain damaged and abused kid and didn't ever think about it. I liked Genma Wars AND Android Kikaider as a kid and thought they were really cool. The brain can take half a lifetime to heal, but bad anime sticks with you forever.
Anyone else wondering what happened to Dan the Ninja's epic mustache after they were described as "physics" like old fashioned physicians? (Maybe he lit it on fire. Ninja doctors can't catch you if you're on fire.)
I've really enjoyed the newer more thoughtful and informative eps, but it's nice to just lump a turd on the pile and mock it too. Nostalgic somehow. Excellent work my friend!
I hate the "Ungrateful, Ignorant Bastard" trope. The villagers are making the Big Bad look decent by comparison. Yes, he's a rapist, but at least he doesn't throw rocks at a mother and her infant child.
The story feels massively truncated and the animation is cheap as all hell, but I will give the dub this: Despite the atrocious script and subpar voice direction, it's clear that most of the voice-actors tried the best they could to salvage it even a slight bit. This dub could've so easily had a cast of nothing but no-names plucked from the licensing company's offices muttering their lines with complete disinterest, but it didn't. Credit where it's due. Also, I did not expect to learn that Nuu (that wolf character) was voiced by Dan Lorge, considering I've heard him hamming it up with gusto as Inspector Zenigata for years.
Oh man, had no idea Bennett was still around! Thought Nostalgia Critic was the only Channel Awesome guy still doing stuff. Glad I randomly noticed this one.
I've been waiting for this for so long. Since it was referenced in Harmagedon, since I saw it on the shelf, since I first found the channel. I came across this series years ago at an FYE that was going of business. I got the whole series' dvds for cheap and thought I was in for a treasure. Good god... And now I come across this finally being released at the right time. Home at nearly 2am after getting back from a local death metal band at our hometown bar they started in, and now facing weak neck and legs and stinging eyes from headbanging too hard. And then drained from just vomiting earlier cuz I headbanged too hard with only 2 beers but too much spicy food before I rolled in to rock. Thank you, Sage, for helping make this wonderful time of my life
lmao Jin's mom sucks. i kind of understand she's supposed to be the all-loving mother figure but boy is it grating how she refuses to acknowledge that what happened to her and her children is an injustice and keeps excusing the cruelty inflicted on her by the villagers.

"Loof, give me blood." Is like a line delivered in an abridged parody dub.
I never seen this Genma Wars before but it doesn't stop me from wanting to hear Sage talk about it.
Same.
If you presented this to me without the backstory and just told me it was an Adult Swim parody of early 70s anime, I would believe you.
Honestly the whole fucking anime looks and feels like a adult swim parody of 1970s anime
All that’s missing is George lowe voicing someone.
And either a heavy metal theme song or a rap theme song.
And it’s complete.

I have been entertained by this video, but now I feel a yearning to be EDUCATED...
29:12 Man Ishinomori loves skulls in his stuff. My brain went straight to black ghost
Man Richard Epcar is really trying his best to sell this garbage, but even his dulcet tones can't save this.
All the voice actors suffer from poor direction in this dub.
33:26 Baby Genma is obviously a lovechild of Stewie Griffin and that 'black' devil bunny from Ghost Stories.
