Woah!! Motion sickness from the multiple background movments.
I remember that was a big deal when Nintendo started being
able to do that (but not which games),
But this anime, no, i've never seen it. sorry.
My first animation was 窶ｰﾃ??堙遺?堋ｫﾅｽq, in Dutch we call it Remi alleen op de wereld, what would be Remi Alone on the world in English.
Here is a the openings part of the anime on Youtube:
I really hope some other people have seen this anime when they were younger.
Back in the 1980s we used to get a sanitised version of Gatchaman on TV during the summer holidays. It was called Battle of the Plannets I think. I always remember being really annoyed because just as the battle sequences were getting tastey, they'd cut to that annoying 7Zark7 robot who'd say something like 'they all survived the battle'. It wasn't until later that I discovered Zark had been spliced in to censor out the material deemed too violent for non-Japanese kids. Mmm, I'm going to see if I can get the proper versions on Amazon.
Personally I used to love Battle of the Planets, classic stuff!
I wonder if Ulysses 31 counts as anime? What an intro!
The infamous opening credits
Like Amos, the first real anime I saw was Akira. I'd love to go back and see the re-dubbed version - apparently it makes much more sense, a far more comprehensible translation of the original.
Man I'd forgotten about Ulysses 31!! Yeah that was great - says he humming the theme tune - that's going to be stuck in my head for days now! It would be good to see that again and not miss any of the episodes.
And don't get me wrong, I loved BOTP - Transmute! - but it always seemed annoying at the time that 7Zark7 told you how the battle ended and you were left thinking, well why didn't we see it. I know now that it was taken out 'cos it was too violent. I've just seen that Amazon do the complete series for ﾂ｣60. But I think I will get a multi region DVD and get the unedited Gatchman.

Let us know how you find it if you do get that dvd set - it'd be interesting to hear how it compares

I will. From a preliminary check, it seems that the full series comprises about 9 volumes - so that's going to be about ﾂ｣100!! Mind you, each volume seemed to have around 300 mins of content so I suppose you are paying the going rate for it.
Will have to see if I can find it cheaper.
But I have a memory of a cartoon; it's been driving me crazy, and I think it's an anime. Here's what I can picture...There are a group of heros and they spin together like a tornado and rise up like a phoenix?! Maybe I have two shows mixed together. I think they all had different powers, but I can't say for sure. Maybe it's all a dream! Any clues?
Oh, I just watched Tokyo Godfathers...is that cosnsidered anime? Anyway I liled it. Everything was so realistic.
