But they've got one thing going in their favor- they have the galaxy's most advanced ship! As seen on Cartoon Network's Toonami! This title from Sunrise, the people behind Cowboy Bebop and Gundam. Genre: Anime Sci-Fi/Action. |

Summary: GREAT OVERLOOKED STORY this show came into my life thanks to cartoon networks toonami a number of years ago. i was glued to the tv every evening because i HAD to know what happend next. We're talking about magic, gun fighting, space pirates, and a story of different people coming together to overcome flaws in themselves and grow as people. i picked this dvd up a month or so ago, and im on my 3rd time thru it now, the animation is showing its age alittle, but is still done soo well that you might not ever think about it. if you liked cowboy bebop, trigun, or even tenchi, this story might be right up your ally... Summary: Buy it, buy it now First of all, I have to warn potential buyers of the new and used sales for this product. Those that state that the collection has different cover art or a different case are selling you a bootleg. Your bootleg could be either a very poor quality foreign sub (tend to have horrible grammar, poor image resolution, and no extras) or what is called an American Rerelease. "American Rereleases" are just bootlegged copies of the real release that have been packaged in bulk quality cases with zeroxed inserts for the cover art. While they are cheaper their sales do not benefit anyone but the bootlegger. The studio that produced and marketed the series is losing out, and buying from bootleggers taxes the legit studios by taking their profits. Profits that would later get put into bringing you new series. So please, think about it before buying from a reseller and make sure you're getting what you're paying for. Buying from bootleggers will not get you a quality product. With that being said, Outlaw star is the quintessential post apocalyptic space anime. Seriously. In this series you'll find an amazing cast of characters, a solid story line, and very nice animation that can still hold its own even when compared to more modern anime. What is so wonderful about these older shows is that they were being produced when the broad audience still loved the extreme anime style and was willing to accept rather far fetched concepts without needing to be told in careful layman's terms what it all meant. The result? A series with good pace, surprises, and lots of action. Not to mention a lovable cast that, while still staying true to their extreme natures and rather stereotypical character types, are full of human emotion and still suffer from some faults. This series does not disappoint. It's a lovely mix of actions, romance (and not that cheesy, gooey kind), and even surprises you with a few hilarious gags. Oddly enough, the DVD case for this set reads that it comes with three disks.... But Amazon is correct in listing that it has six. I'm not sure why the official, legit release would have such a strange error on the case but don't panic if you receive yours and notice the mistake. This release also includes the textless opening and ending, one huge plus for fans who like to watch things in their entirety. Summary: Please don't confuse this with Cowboy Bebop... Since this series gets compared to Cowboy Bebop for some strange reason, just thought I'd make that the point of my review. If you haven't seen it, Cowboy Bebop is a classy tribute to all things great about american film noir and seventies cop-shows, blues music and jazz... as anime goes, it's high art and has one of the most memorable background scores by Yoko Kanno you'll ever hear and excellent english voice acting. (yeah, I'm a fan) Outlaw Star on the other hand, is a juvenile, lower-budget, noisy space opera, and that's not to say it's not fun to watch, but... it is what it is. To it's credit, it's got some nice character designs and the script is full of good humor (the ronin Suzuka gets the best lines), it's not graphically violent, though it does have a bit of swearing in it. The dub needs help; the english voice acting is pretty thin and uninspired and it brings the whole thing down- I enjoyed it alot more listening to the japanese and reading the subtitles. It's not the best or worst anime out there, it's got a good heart. Just please avoid the 'if you liked Cowboy Bebop' tag - they're pullin yr leg. Summary: Wonderful Tale of Astronomical Proportions! "Outlaw Star" takes place in the future. Humans have left the Earth and have colonized many areas in space, but the universe is still largely a mystery. This story follows a bounty hunter who loves the ladies and is always in debt, a pre-teen who has the intellect of a genius, an android who can't remember her past, but is vital to the group's future, a woman not unlike a samurai warrior who favors ancient techniques to new-fangled weaponry, an alien who is like a werewolf changes but into a tiger-like creature instead of a wolf-like creature, and the ship, call the OUTLAW STAR who has a mind of his own. Together this band of misfits travel through space, try to escape debt, destroy their enemies, and discover the secrets of the android's past. This a terrific series for those who like stories of space travel and those who love Anime! Enjoy! NOTE: Is recommended for ADULTS! Has adult-oriented situations. Summary: more anime to kill a day! Okay first off it's outlaw star! if u have never seen this then u are a complete and utter loser until to u do.2nd. if ur into stuff like cowboy bebop,trigun,or anything in the space pirate/bounty hunter/adventure genre u'll freakin love this. it's six discs which is huge!650 min for those of u who don't know it roughly 11 HOURS OF SHOW! IF U PLAN TO WATCH IT ALL DAY MAKE A PARTY OF IT.this is not the censored version the showed on toonami back in 1998-99 this is UNCENSORED SO IT IS ALOT MORE MATURE THEN IT LETS ON. i love it.great for people who r just gettin into anime or who love the genre. |
