EXO Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 (edited) The gong shoots these bullets that split into an X shape and I guess when it you, you'll feel like a gong. Heh, that's probably as good an explanation as any. I should probably get off my ass and get the Appleseed Databook anyhow. It IS worth puchasing, isn't it? And I warned you not to click on the cosplay. Can you still find the English translation for the Data book?

drifand Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 The dude in the ESWAT getup *could* pass for "Morton", i guess... :-) Neat links! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsu legato Posted June 11, 2004 Author Share Posted June 11, 2004 Rise, my friend. I was just curious if anybody has come across a fansub of either the new Appleseed film, or Ghost in the Shell: Innocence yet. I'm dying to see both of these movies.

EXO Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Iv'e been looking also. All the torrents just have the trailers that we've seen posted here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LePoseur Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 (edited) I did see a raw for Innocence a while back. Of course it's a raw so there are no subtitles... but if you want it, it could be you're not looking too hard. But the quality was crap, like a handheld 80's camcorder in a half lit theater. As for Appleseed, nothing... Not even news of the DVD besides "It's coming." Well duh! Guess there's no chance of getting one before it hit American theaters. Speaking of which I hope they leave it undubbed. I thought Deunan's seiyuu was great, Bri less so, but no problems, and honestly I can't remember Hitomi's (I think it's a trauma blocked memory ). But Deunan's was a solid match, and I think it'd be a shame to lose it in favor of a whiny all-anime-women-talk-this-way American dub voice.

bsu legato Posted June 12, 2004 Author Share Posted June 12, 2004 and honestly I can't remember Hitomi's (I think it's a trauma blocked memory ). So you're saying that they really nailed Hitomi's character then? From your description, she'll sound just like I'd always imagined her in the manga.

F-ZeroOne Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 What's that armor that Brieareos wears, the one that makes him look like a landmate, called?Anyone? Anyone? I've always assumed that its a Briareos-size Guges-D. However, thats speculation, not something I'm seen confirmed anywhere... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsu legato Posted June 15, 2004 Author Share Posted June 15, 2004 So maybe I'm just nuts, but I've had this urge to rewatch the old Appleseed OVA from the late 80's. Sure it glosses over nearly everything that gave Appleseed its depth, but it did have landmates and spider gunplatforms. Do any of you guys have any love for this old anime?

EXO Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 I got it one VHS somewhere... the look is alright, the script is forgettable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a bit better than I was expecting, but the dub will remind you to get down on your knees and say thanks that anime companies find it harder to get away with things like that now...

Is the dub really that bad? I don't think I've ever seen the OVA dubbed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mislovrit Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Is the dub really that bad? I don't think I've ever seen the OVA dubbed. Yes the dub is that bad, and be very happy you didn't have to listen to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsu legato Posted June 16, 2004 Author Share Posted June 16, 2004 Yeesh, thank god for DVD then! Come to think of it, that old Dominion OVA had pretty painful dubbing too. I remember seeing some of it on TV years ago, and as much as I loved the original Dominion manga, I couldn't sit through more than two episodes of the OVA. All because of the damn dubbing.
