Post by Lizzard »

I'm curious to find out how many folks here have actually seen this marvelous series and/or movie. I feel like I've wandered into a party where everyone is staring at me, and I'm not sure how many folks actually have an idea what me and my cel gallery are all about. ^_^

I have not seen it yet... but it is HIGH on my list as the music composer (as i understand) is the same composer that did the music for Arjuna (a HUGE personal fave!).
even Lady of Knight was telling me how much i MUST see this show...!
so, as i say, it's HIGH on my list!!

Yoko Kanno did indeed do the music for both Arjuna and Escaflowne, not to mention Cowboy Bebop, Macross Plus, etc.

I love all of the Esca soundtracks. Kanno is this generation's John Williams, in my opinion, even though she does occasionally borrow riffs from previous composers. (As a huge soundtrack BGM fan, I know for sure that she's "borrowed" from the soundtracks of both The Termintor and Toys, perhaps more.)

Nathan, the series is available on VHS and DVD. The movie is only available on DVD (unless you want to import the unsubbed Japanese rental video release, which costs almost $150 USD). Both are availalbe either dubbed or subbed.

I highly recommend the original Japanese with subs, since some of the greatest Japanese seiyuu ever are in it. Just about the only famous seiyuu who doesn't put in an appearance is Megumi Hayashibara.

*catches you and baps you* ;) I can't believe you haven't finished it!!! :P

*glances at the Ken OVA, and the Hunter x Hunter OVA ...... * Weellll... I can't really say too much. :^^: *backs away slowly* :emb I'm supposed to be off until Thursday this week (like that'll happen.... sigh) so I'll try and get them watched then.. :^^:

I've seen both the series and the movie, Lizzard. ;) So you're not alone. :) This forum tends to be dominated by DBZ fans, but don't let that scare you away... please!! *grins* We need more diversity here ^_^!! (No offense to those who are strictly die-hard DBZ fans of course... heh ... But there IS more out there ;)

You should be able to get it at the same place you get all of your other anime DVDs (or VHSeseseseses). Suncoast carries it, Amazon.com carries it...

I've noticed the large number of DBZ fans, SW! My avatar is in the minority!

DBZ fan...yes...I think that everyone know that I am. But I am proud to say that I am indeed branching. And I loved the Esca movie!! Something about the character design just pops to me. I just purchased the last DVD for Weib, so I have to wait a bit to start a new series. But I do believe that the Esca series is next on my list...*shuffles through papers*....*checks list*....Yes indeed, it is next in line!

I'am definitly a big dbz fan :D
But I seen all of it so am ready to expand my horizons :o
Think I check escaflowne out. Am sure I could probley get some of
it from the local suncoast. I've been meaning to check some
blue gender and a few other series but my habbit of buying
cels is draining my spending money :P It's good though to have some
diversity and I enjoy learning of new anime :o Welcome to Beta :D
