Giant Gorg, where have you been all my life!?
I really like it. It's Jules Verne island with a robot protector and Brock Samson.

You're good people anon.
Glad to know that I'm not the only one who ordered it.
I love how the main villain turns out to beRonald Reagan

May wanna not watch episode 23 with them.
>the Discotek shill is here again
There were at least 4 typos on this DVD.
>>13934904
What happened in that one again? The girl getting beat up and her shirt ripped off?
>>13934934
I've honestly never bought a single anime DVD that didn't have at least one typo. Which is pretty fucking sad when you think about it.

>tfw stuck halfway because it's so damn slow

Reminder that Nanto dropped his sub project's final batch the second the license got announced.
>>13934943
Yep.
I knew all along, thanks to him.

You'd probably also enjoy Sentou Mecha Xabungle.
>>13935099
No. Stop it. Stop shilling your fucking awful video reviews. We already told you we don't care when you started with that Mellowlink one. Fuck off.
>>13934971
Just drop it, man. If you made it through Nadia's Island/Africa arc but call Gorg slow, you're just not into it.
Speaking of Nadia, I popped in my BDs for the first time last night and holy shit there's a dub. After all this time it somehow slipped past my radar.
>>13938431
>holy shit there's a dub
It would've been a solid 7/10 dub if it weren't for Jean's fucking accent.
>>13938431
There's been a dub since 1992 if we count Streamline's aborted release, where have you been man.If you can get over Jean's ridiculous accent the ADV dub is actually pretty decent.

It's a meme language and you know it.Alright I only watched one clip of them on the island, I think it was during his inventor fever dream or something. What a shitty arc that was when the rest was so good.
>>13931787
Could you please give the show a proper rip? Our current rip is a total mess.

Seriously. I'm pretty sure The Captain killed more people than the bad guys did.
>>13931787
>>13945980
I wish that those gag manga things in that collage get full scans someday.
Oh man I want to buy this before the Discotek sale is up but somehow can't really justify $30 for animu right now.
Does the complete collection come in some sort of slip case?
>>13938382
>we
Who's "we"?
>>13949462
Yes. A lot of Discotek's releases these days come with a cardboard slipcase for some reason.
Is the mixed release up on bakabt still the only real option for someone looking to give this show a shot?
>>13951109
Pretty much. Otherwise you have to do a bit of googling to find the hidden Nyaa releases, thanks to Nanto respecting the licensors a little too much.
>>13951120
Would the official western release people in this thread are talking about be a worthwhile pickup if i don't want to hunt for a release?
>>13951126
Yeah, although there's some typos. Discotek releases are generally reliable (aside from occasionally having to put up with nonsense from Tatsunoko and Toei).
>>13951137
Thanks much
>>13931787
Is Gorg supposed to look so fucking adorable?
So did 1960s Batman air in Japan? Because I don't know how otherwise Yas got the "same Gorg time, same Gorg channel" at the end of episodes
![[2016.03.06_15.58.02].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/YUyzceX.jpg "[2016.03.06_15.58.02].jpg")
Downloaded a batch on bakabt, is there a better quality versipon somewhere else? The subs are huuuge
>>13963139
Nope. You have Skaro Hunting Society's Nanto for that. The guy knows that hardsubs-only releases are an unpopular practice, but he does it anyway.
>>13938431
Actually I skipped pretty much everything from the Island/Africa arc after 3 episodes of Gainax taking me for a complete moron. It's probably one of the worst things to ever happen to anime.
>>13963904
Technically, that's Toho and Shinji Higuchi's fault, so there was no control over that to start with.
>>13931787
On bakaBT you idiot.
Could have saved yourself some money if you'd googled.

I'm sure OP will now starve to death in the streets because he bought that anime DVD set.
>>13963961
Could have used the money for a family dinner at a restaurant or a trip to Disneyland.
Pirating saves you a LOT of money over the years anon. Speaking from experience.
>>13941616
Gorg was directed by Yas, not Tomino.
>>13964479
That doesn't really counter his point, but okay.

Just finished first episode, that was great
I like how it started with people dying in the middle of the ocean a black kid stealing from the MC, and a naked old dude living with his imouto and Scooby Doo. I'll definitely keep watching!
Also I find the animation pretty good for a 80's show, but it might be because it's only the first episode though
>>13964554
No, it's pretty consistent and smooth. It is OVA tier for many parts in terms of smoothness.

>>13964561
Neat! I'm pretty bummed about the hardsub but that's my only complain so far
Somehow the show feels like proto-Venture Brothers, which is cool
>>13964576
Keep watching. Leave the thread now to avoid spoilers.
>proto-venture brothers
VB and Gorg are coming from some of the same adventure stories of the 50's-70's.
>>13964506
>super fast pace
let's calm down and not go that far, it has really good action moments but when it quiets down things get pretty damn slow, especially in the early parts where there's like a minute of just the boy and Gorg looking at each other.
>>13964479
Oh well I suppose someone has to fund this industry.
Although even in that sense this is stupid, nobody will ever make a sequel to this show. Everyone who worked on it is probably already retired or dead.
>>13931787
Oh shit it actually came out?
Why didn't anyone tell me?

wat
>>13965782
Yes, but it keeps Discotek's employees from living on the street, and get to possibly sub older stuff Nanto would take decades to do otherwise. It's probably a fair tradeoff. Besides, no one said anything about a sequel.
>>13972397
There's also the satisfaction of having it on your shelf. It's a sentimental thing, but I like having a shelf of nice DVDs to look at, even if I saved money and space by torrenting 'em.
>>13972517
Agreed. It must look nice next to the Votoms Ammo Box set.
>>13974505
It really does! I'm reasonably proud of my collection.
>>13972112
Good Yuu, you look kinda Disney.
>>13974549
Elf is the best anime, Will Ferrel is my waifu
>>13977435
I've had that DVD for years, I should check to see if it still works.
>>13972397
Ah yes I do understand. I buy videogames even though I could just as easily pirate them just to support the devs so they can make more.
>>13945980
Marder did nothing wrong.
>>13974549
Noice
Anyone rip the official subs?
