the added animation for American t.v is pretty terrible. this show was re edited & altered from a Japanese show called 'gatchaman'. the american producers shamelessly tried to star wars it up to cash in on the tsunami of star wars pandemonium. as a tot, i assumed this was just a big ol' star wars rip off. turns out, 'gatchaman' came out years earlier in japan. anime fans seem to have a blind spot. i have seen this described as classic anime. truth is: the drawing in 'gatchaman' is 2nd rate comic book & the animation doesn't really rise above 'the flintstones'. that said, 'gatchaman' does have a soap opera appeal. the story does develop thru the seasons & there is actually character development. if you remember 'botp' as a tot as i do, it just doesn't hold up. i would suggest checking out a copy of 'gatchaman' instead. it is not a masterpiece but it is better than 'botp'. silly, unimportant fluff. enjoy!Read full review

I liked this dvd because it is the real english version of the tv show. I bought it because my dad loved watching the show when he was a kid. So it was a perfect gift for him. Although I made the mistake in buying the DVD from Austrailia so it doesn't work on every DVD Player in the United States but it's still works on other players. All-and-all its a good DVD for fans of the series.
