For those of us who don't know, a three epsoide TMNT OVA (oringal video animation) series was produced and released in Japan back in '96. Sadly though, it really sucked..I mean I love TMNT, but dang man..this was just pitiful.

Not to diss the Japanese at all, but..I know they could've done better than this!

I kinda liked the fights in the anime and some of the characters design like april and splinter...but the rest was awful :dead: maybe if it'd have been subbed i'd have understood it too. :ohwell:

Yeah, fights are something Japanese can animate. Take the first season for example. I have seen 2 subtitled eps, and i remember that it was pretty much crap.

i dunno.... i thought they were entertaining, at least!! :P

seriously though, some of the ideas and character designs were really cool (I loved the Super Turtles, but not those Metal Mutant ones) but they were expressed quite stupidly and hurried. oh well.

They could have done it a LOT better.

You've seen 2 subtitled eps? :teek: do you still have em?! =P
And i agree, it was entertaining...i liked the metal shredder and the metal turtles :evilgrin: but i didn't liked the super turtles too much...they looked more human than turtle :P i did liked that fusion they did when they became the winged turtle, i think that was pretty cool 8)

weeeeell, im not 100% sure if anime is homosexual, but i don't seem to like anime much either, although all my friends like it alot, i just cant seem to dig it. I think the detail and fight scene are good, but i just dislike how they have massive eyes and little mouths - i just think they sometimes wreck it abit.

Anime has much better looking action scenes than western animation, Of course some people might not like the big eyes thing..

*raises an eyebrow to the crowd* now you got it right! now go follow shaft again.

*watches crowd leave* yeah, shaft was better as that 'ol 70s afro-pickin' cool cat that could bag the ladies like nobody else. i wonder what's wrong with johnny bravo's style of picking up girls. it works for me!

Yeah, I know it's not a bad word, but I edited it out due to how he used the word. When it's used in that way, in can be offensive. :ohwell:

Akira!! Now there's an awesome example of anime. The animation itself was absolutely amazing for its time (and it still is!). And the plot... Wow, there are some very complex parts. It's like trying to figure out a puzzle.

One time is not enough for Akira, if you want to know what's going on...

11-02-2002, 05:43 PM
I agree, Karpo. I've seen that movie about four times already, and there are still some parts I can't figure out. Heh heh... I still love the movie, though. :D

It is the BEst exampl of good anime. In fact, if you ask people whats the best anime if you have to name one, 90% would say akira.

Yep you're right, i guess it was right to edit it after all in that case..
One time is not enough for Akira, if you want to know what's going on...
I agree! :D That movie can be very weird the first time, you have to watch it a buncha times to understand it.
Also the animation was great, i liked the part when tatsuo's arm gets fused with that metal thing...and then he gets bigger and bigger.
Another movie with great animation is ghost in the shell! :evilgrin:

11-06-2002, 06:54 PM
Yeah the Grande Finale is a classic.

:nod: gotta love the fight of kaneda versus tatsuo in the dumpster :)

Good question.

11-06-2002, 09:58 PM
I agree. That is a very thought provoking question. I must contemplate on its meaning...

In the meanwhile, you should watch Akira, Spike! Awesome movie... And then you'll understand what Nicko was talking about. ;)

To date, i havent watched any anime that good. Eva was ok, but not nealry on the same level as Akira.
