I saw this on Sci-Fi Channel as well, the voice of the bed in English cracked me up when she said "Oh sexy pants" to her husband. I missed a good deal of the beginning so I wasn't entirely sure what the anime was about.

Watched this subtitled at an anime club many years ago. It was enjoyable then, and it's a classic now. Not perfect, but so fun.

I've still got the original vhs copy of this, but can't play it because my video died^^;
I'll just have to get this brilliant film on DVD... Sometime anyway. As for Strange Dawn, I first saw this on channel 5 (UK) in their pre-school slot (aka, Milkshake)! I think someone saw the character design and thought "That's a great looking kids program!" not realising that there's adult themes a-plenty, including attempted rape, murder and near the end, a character literally being kicked to death. They soon moved it to a 5am slot (from 7:30). I really want this in sub form (I dislike dubs for the most part - except Excel Saga^_^) JBV^_^ |

I dont think Elf Princess Rane is going out of print, since they put a trailer for it on the recent release of Simoun 3. I caught the trailer for this on my recent run through of Now and Then, Here and There on Netflix (I always run through the trailers first). Going to add to the queue if available. Gewürtztraminer |

Sorry to hear that. There are two dubs (Japanese and French stereo) and two subs (French and Dutch). I guess Dutch is no better for you? 
The series was released both as four single DVD:s and a collected DVD box. The box is out of print but available at second hand sites such as www.priceminister.com and www.ebay.fr . There was an Italian release a couple of years ago as well. See http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strange_Dawn .
It's a bit uneven at times. But no nosedive. However, I wanted "Strange Dawn" to be twice as long as those meager 13 episodes. It's so captivating! |

Chalk me up as another fan of Strange Dawn - I was really disappointed that the DVD release was never completed. I too saw it first on Channel 5, but I only caught a couple of random episodes, so I never got to see an ending. Still, there was just something about it that really intrigued me, and I was pleasantly surprised by it after importing the first DVD on a whim.
Thanks, taeko-san for pointing out the French release, I may get it and see if I can struggle through with French subs, though my Japanese is better than my French, hopefully between the two I'll at least get some closure out of it! |
