Samurai Pizza Cats (Kyatto Ninden Teyandee) (1990)
For whatever reason, I could not find a thread on this. I could've sworn we had one a number of years back... I vaguely remember there being discussion about the fansub project... Probably got deleted at some point, though....
Anyways, thought I'd post this topic with the recent news of Discotek having licensed the series. As ANN reports: Quote:
Hopefully they'll be released at the same time, as I'd much prefer the Japanese version. Most of my exposure to the series was through the Japanese one, so I'm more partial to it as a result. So, what's your guys opinions of this news? Also, feel free to use this to discuss the series as a whole! |

I saw the ANN post this morning and thought "A company called Discotek has licensed Samurai Pizza Cats for a home video release? Am I reading this from rec.arts.anime.news through Gopher on a 80x25 Televideo terminal hooked up to the college mini-computer or something?"
I remember seeing a couple of episodes now and again a long time back, but suspect it's one of those things that is never quite as good as you remember it. |

Lol when I was a kid I thought Saban's localization of this was like the greatest thing ever, but then of course when I watched an episode later in life at an anime convention I realized it was just about the most random thing ever and maybe half the localized jokes actually work or make any sort of sense. Still hilarious to watch though. I also like that they tried to claim that the fox that was the Samuri (yes that's how it was spelled in the dub opening) Pizza Cats main villain was a mouse (a flaming effeminate one at that) when it's just so clearly a fox. Oh 90's anime dubs....you were so hacked up and barely resembled your original source and you were lucky if you made any sense at all.
