Fortress_Maximus Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 (edited) Damn hate the flash site, what a pain! As for the character designs pretty nice, but the seriyuus are missing Kamiya Akira!!! WTF??!! Just not the same, the replacement (Mr. Former Kujuku) lacks the pitch IMO. Seems like the same old story with Raoh, Toki, and Nanto fighters. Hm, wondering why they didn't bother to do the FIST OF THE BLUE SKY instead.

Hikuro Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 didn't we just get a new OVA last year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComicKaze Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Yes, I wish we got Fist of the Blue Sky instead. Ever since Raijin Comics went bust in the middle of publishing vol. 6 of FotBS in English, I've been very angry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I liked the colored trades, I knew deep down it would be another Guyver situation that Viz fracked up by stopping the series. In that situation I believe sales were too low for them to justify releasing the individual volumes so they canned the series at a major battle! What Viz should've done is stopped the individual issues and COMPLETE the series by releasing a PERFECT COLLECTION in the trade format for Guyver, but no... that makes too much sense. FOTNS is dated and while I think the artwork in the manga is awesome the average manga and anime noob won't. The sales and lack thereof speaks volumes. FOTBS is newer but has even less of a following stateside to justify continuing the trades. To my knowledge they've stopped them is this correct? And anime would be nice but I highly doubt it will happen anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortress_Maximus Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Man I just love that sound..."woaaa chahcachahcacahaaa" they even have a parody of that in Yakitate 363024[/snapback] And in the classic URUSEI YATSURA Fourth Movie LUM THE FOREVER, and in KOKOWA (here is) GREENWOOD OVAs and many other animes. FOTNS shows up all over the place! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terry the lone wolf Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Man, I love North Star but it's really, really dated. The new OVAs were really good but they reall should've done new projects around the early 90's at the height of its popularity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
