Comment:
Disney changed the name from Laputa: Castle in the Sky to simply Castle in the Sky because Laputa is a rather bad word in Spanish.
Streamline Pictures licensed Laputa, along with an English dub, from Tokuma in 1988 or 1989. Streamline did not create the original English dub.

An all-female military platoon plays music to the sky in a fortress at the edge of a war-ravaged civilization in this very different moe title. Despite some generic elements, its premise, setting, and tone distinguish it from other titles of its ilk and get it off to a good start.
Death Note Relight DVD 2
There is merit to this release in its greater wealth of new footage and improvements on Mello and Near's overwrought episodes. Still, it's only "better" for the fans, and the uninitiated should always just turn to the original series.

Gundam 0083 - Gundamjack...although not the spectacular anime event Macross Plus was, Gundam 0083 comes pretty darn close, and is probably the closest any other mecha series ever will come.
