Good Images New Sound
If your name is Caesar it might not be a good day to hang out at the Forum but it is a great day for Anime fans over at the 99 Cents Only stories.
I was just talking to Fred Ladd last week at the Robots opening and somebody there said that they had seen Kimba DVD`s at 99 Cents Only. To celebrate my son and I sang Fred a verse or two of the Kimba theme song. Today I found volume 3 and 4 at my local store.
Now I have Kimba in VHS so this is not as great as a new/old Van Beuren Tom and Jerry but Kimba is an important piece of Anime history and he has come to 99 cent DVD`s. So if you don`t have a copy of Kimba yet here is your chance to sample early Anime without laying out lots of money.
The image quality on these new Kimbas are very good. The strange thing is that these are completely new dubs. Gone is the Fred Ladd Players and the Fred Ladd theme song. I can do without the theme if I have to but I miss the voice of Billie Lou Watt.
