I actually gave up on the Marvel Anime titles. I just found Blade and Iron Man's animes to be really bland. Then there's Marvel Disk Wars which was just a lame kid's show. So I'm not really positive on anymore Marvel anime productions.

My take on Marvel anime:
1. Iron Man: bland as all hell. Pass. 2. Wolverine: Dear lord, why? Pass. 3. X-Men: Holy hell, that was actually pretty good. Not great, but a huge step up. 4. Blade: Average on pretty much all accounts. Pass. 5. Disk Wars: Terrible. Absolutely terrible. Now about this new one? No idea. No clue where I can watch it. |

It's kind of hard to believe but the Darkstalkers anime from 1997 does a better version of Blade with Donovan Baine's character. Baine is a half-breed also and a vampire/monster hunter and also a way more exciting character than anime Blade was. Which is hard to believe you could make Blade boring, the live action movies aren't, well at least the first two. Last edited by Codeanime93 on Tue Aug 01, 2017 2:59 pm; edited 3 times in total |

Legally, you can't. Given Disney's treatment of their prior anime productions, that probably won't change either. |

It's a big shame this show can't be viewed anywhere. I've only found it with chinese (?) subs on dailymotion, but that is it.
Disk Wars was actually a pretty fun show, minus the kinda crappy art, so I looked forward to this one. I hope we'll be able to view it somewhere, sometime. |

In the US? Never. In English? Maybe in a year or so, there'll probably be a North American produced dub that'll air in southeast Asia and nowhere else ever, with the only evidence of the dub's existence being a single promo someone uploads on Youtube. That's what happened with Disk Wars. |

Seriously loved the dynamic between Wolverine and Cycops in X-men Anime, the rest are between bland and bad. Wish we only had more X-men anime, the world setting and X-Men situation had a very good potential. I can't say this enough, i think that the X-Men anime is the best product that captured the dynamic between Wolverine and Cyclops outside of the Comics and The Gifted Animated Comics (I loved the Marvel Knights Animated Comics why did they stopped making them?!!). Edit: Liked the Uniforms btw, Best Storm imo, is it her uniform original to this series or does it appear in the comics? |

Just I can say for me it was boring and bland, and I never thought I could say it, but Blade could have actually been darker than it was. It was rather tame for a vampire anime. Part of what turned me off was the rather awful generic sounding scores they gave these things. They couldn't spring for actual singers or anything for these things so you usually just get some bland rock music or heavy metal music blasted during the openings of both. |

Just because they're better than the American cartoons doesn't make them good, per se. Better is relative. As far as kids shows go though, Disk Wars beats the pants off our stuff and treats the characters with more respect. |

And then there's THIS, which is pretty much just a lame kids' show (basically the Disney Channel Avenger-teens Spiderman series, gone anime). And in addressing the "Cultural differences" between Japanese Marvel and US Marvel, obviously the JP producer only had the Japanese cultural differences to speak on, eg. "More psychological backstory for the heroes"-- And not the glaring US cultural differences, ie. that the Japanese don't really seem to understand the itinerant mask/cape hero business. Kamen Rider had a mask and a cape, but he wasn't Thor. Even My Hero Academia seems to be a frustrated poke at red-white-and-blue Marvel ethics as "too Western", and seems to want to deconstruct the living heck out of it in return. |

Which is funny since none of the series with the sole exception of Disk Wars aired against Ultimate Spider-Man and Avenger's Assemble. |
