It's been known for it's crappiness... :p

It's okay, just don't get the dubbed version....

The english Ritsuko and Gendo are in the dub btw, which is distracting...

....look at Dark Angel on Fox and look at Gally....yes the resemblence is striking... James Cameron was rumored to be working on a live action version but scraped the idea..... I think it would've been cooler then the shit known as Dark Angel...

Well, actually, Battle Angel was orignally going to be an OVA, but they made it a movie instead. I don't know the full story, I just know that.

no, dont' want it.


in fact... if you're going to ask a question like that...don't watch anime. :roll: if you're curious about the damn series then just watch it... its not like it'll kill you if it really is terrible...but actually i think the anime is alright.

First... as I understand, the Battle Angel anime was fan made...

After I saw it, I checked out the Manga... the Manga is very cool...

Howerver, I think the anime is OK...

It would be nice if they did the whole series in anime form.

i thought the battle angel anime was a two ep ova that they spliced together and called a movie.

i saw an amv to this anime, and i've got to say, i wasn't impressed one bit. the song was 'system of a down - chop suey' and was alright in it's entirety, but the look and feel of the anime is most repulsive. basically, short women and men fight hand to hand. yup.

Battle Angel is a two part OVA

It was not fan created, but the manga author was quite dissapointed with the first OVA's, and said no to doing more.

The manga is much better, and is all translated, AFAIK. You can find it on Amazon.

The original name of the manga series in Japan was GUNNM.
