Great news. You can count on Right Stuf to make a quality product, regardless of being packaged in a litebox. I'm looking forward to the release in September, but no hurry, we have yet to experience any summer here in Michigan! Wink


I can't wait to pick it up either. Summer came by today, but who knows how long it will stick around.

I had been considering buying El Hazard, but with the original releases out of print, I decided to give up on it, but now that it's being licensed rescued, I may consider it again, especially since I've been clearing out my anime collection and selling series that flopped (to me). There may be openings in my collection (and my wallet) for El Hazard now. Wink

Awesomeness!

I hope the rest of the series will be rescued. Wanderers is one of my favorites. Ah the memories of watching anime on the International Channel. Very Happy


Same here. I also watched it on the international channel too as well as the OVA. though I liked it a lot , others didn't and the reasons are kinda obivious. though I liked the wanderers over the ova and the alternatve world.

It's strange that they didn't pick up the original OAV as well. Perhaps AIC is asking too much for that license?

The Wanderers was a great retelling of the story, despite it being toned down for TV. Not only did it follow the basic story line of the original, they made certain changes that had you looking at the characters in a new light. Definitely get's my thumbs up -- good to see it finally get rescued


Unfortunately it pissed off a lot of people. Especially Ifurita fans.

However i liked it as well as a twist for who'll be makoto's new interest.

Though it would have been a howl if they had also included Run's lesbian sister Fatora. Could only imagine the chaos. Not to mentioned including Parnons and Quaul from the Alternative World to that series as well.
