It's about time!
I bought this DVD back when it first came out but I'm only now getting around to reviewing it. Anyway, after wondering why they skipped the Orange Islands when putting out the DVDs they FINALLY came out with this..a TWELVE episode disc! Compared with the other Pokemon DVDs which have like 3 episodes (probably why I never bought any of those) at the same price so this is a truly awesome deal. The ...

Get Wild with "City Hunter"
Author's Note: This is the same review for the first box set. but seeing as how this a review for the whole first season, it would be stupid of me to re-write a whole review for such a sake. Now, allow me just this little bit of time to open to flood gates of my ego, I promise you I won't be long. When it comes to anime, I tend to think of myself as more learned than the average otaku. I ...

My Neighbor Totoro is a childhood memory for me. My 2-year-old kid love it, too, also his little friends. I have one in the Mandarin-Japanese version, but I bought this English version for his little friend's birthday. Because she loves it but her mom can only understand English. They love it

Another entry into the Orange Islands saga!
Apparently, each volume of the Orange Island set is going to be released within a year of each other, so we won't have a complete set until 2004. Oh well. Anyway, Ash's jaunt into the Orange Islands continues, and starts off with a bang with: #240 - Navel Maneuvers: Ash makes it to Navel Island, where he faces the gym leader Danny in a three part take all match! Tracey is rooting for Ash, but it ...

While there, they go to a magic show where Max hears Jirachi talking to him from a crystal! The magician lets Max keep Jirachi only to find out Jirachi stays for one week!

The Adult Pokemon Fan
I am one of the rare adult Pokemon fans out there [I'm 29], and I just love the charm and moments of friendship that this cartoon contains within each wonderful episode! At first, I didn't like the looks of this cartoon because I alway's hated japanese anime of all kinds. But I finally decided to give it a try and see if I could like it because I was a HUGE Nintendo fan. Boy am I glad I did. I ...

Exellent!!
Totally Togepi is good. Togepi is ssssssssoooooooo cute! I love it's cute little face and I love the way it says 'Togi! Togi! Breee!' I wish that I had my very own Togepi, but I guess that the only way to have my own Togepi is the capture one on the Pokemon Gold/Silver games.

Still a good watch
From the creator of Ranma 1/2 and Inu-Yasha. This series is very dated (the 80's) so the animation will cause some people to balk. I suggest reading the series and then watching the show. Some of the manga can't translate well to animation and, again, it's very dated but I'm still a fan. The DVD's don't have any extra's, only an option to listen in English or Japanese with subtitles (how I ...

First half of the BEST season of CH
The beginning is the same as ever, action and mokkori everywhere. Through the entire season, though, we can see more and more clearly the feelings of Ryo towards Kaori, and we start to understand our hero better. Why he acts as he does - all to protect Kaori, the only woman he ever loved, from the life he leads. But there're still enough guns, smoke and explosions to satisfy even the most ...

This is great! Too bad they ruined it near 2004 though...
There are some great tales in the early Pokemon series I'll probably always remember watching when I was about five or six, and this is what started my spark for loving Pokemon. (When I was seven, I had almost nine hundred Pokemon cards!) Now I'm 11, and I hate it that Pokemon has changed so much. Ash, Brock and Misty rocked just as that threesome, but later they put in that guy to replce ...

Adv Films, 2003

Loved it!
I'm a big fan of the tv series, so naturally I was thrilled about the OVA, since I really didn't care for the series' ending. This DVD was a real treat. It took all of the funniest qualities of the series and amped them up to ridiculous proportions. They still manage a few tender moments here and there, but mostly this is like Sorcerer Hunters on PCP. I haven't read the manga, and this OVA is ...

Heartbreaking, yet beautiful
After watching the whole series, and after have so many fun, I knew it wasn't to be a good end to the characters and your friendships. But in this movie, it happens to be so sad....anyone who have some affection by the characters will certainly cry and above all you will have so much melancholy. It will mark you.

Hunt this out
First off, this series is Japanese with English subtitles - and that is the best thing ADV could have done. No dub would capture the frequent changes between tone the characters all use. But don't fret people City Hunter is a very visual anime with regards to plot and humour - even if you're slow at reading you'll keep up with this. Previous dubs have all been terrible changing Ryo's name to ...

So close....
I appreciate Viz releasing the series, since it's unlikely to be a big seller for them (despite how good it is), but I wish they'd have taken the time to redo the transfer of the first few episodes in this series. Clearly there was too much edge enhancement applied in the mastering and the quality suffers badly with blocking and breakup. Fortunately it clears up by the end of the first disc and ...

Actully.....
I believe, according to many websites, this DVD is actully a re-release of either Vol 1 Pikach, I Choose You! or vol 12 Pikachu Party. This titles, along with the other season 1 and 3 DVDs, have long been dis-continued. With some luck, maybe they ll re-release the whole of the series but I m guessing this ll be a one off.
