How to save the sleeping bag pun: she took the phrase "time to lay this to rest" literally. Give me a job at Funimation.

Invader Zim was probably one of the best examples of alien/spy/whatever infiltrating a school.

"Does anyone give a shit in New York." Fuck no they don't. 4Kids was from New York.

9:08 The irony is LittleKuriboh could do a better job dubbing the anime, all by himself.

I knew that I recognized that voice from somewhere. Ted Lewis did the voice of Escargoon in Kirby Right Back at Ya. And...HOLY CRAP!! He was Giovanni in Pokemon. And Tracey!? Now I like this guy even more.

My favorite thing about Grandoll was indeed Ted Lewis as Peos with his Paul Lynde impression--which he would later use for Escargoon on "Kirby: Right Back At Ya!". It was even funnier when he cussed and I'm now tempted to edit clips of Kirby with audio from Grandoll for the laughs. Then the character died in episode two with an "Oh SHIT!" and my laughs died with him. Also, Haruna sounds familiar, it bothered me throughout the entire OVA because I was trying to pin a face (well, character) on her…

My Gaydar is going off, Bakura must be near!

Hahahahahahaha I Just Heard Escargoon Say God Dammit! Life, Is, COMPLETE!

Goddamnit, let Kuriboh act like Jack Atlas!!

So he was in Yugioh as Bakura and Bandit Keith....... in America :D

OK, how in the hell could Sage make a trilby joke and NOT get called out by Linkara?

Gotta love that LittleKuriboh cameo

Not gonna lie Sage - your Paul Lynde impression is great.

I am not a native English-speaker and this anime gives me the impression that all people who are must have damaged eardrums from all the high-pitched squeaking females do all the time..

God that Nathan guy is so ridiculously hammy. It's so glorious

Oh my god! That Lewis guy was the announcer in Pokemon Stadium? I LOVE THAT GUY!

Oh my god, the acting in this anime....And I thought Tommy Wiseau's performance was the pinnacle of hilarity.

I've admittedly walked into a bathroom and exclaimed my desperate need to pee.

The only time I've seen that whole sleeping bag principle (which is what I'm calling it now) actually be avoided was in One Piece. Some flying enemies were attacking the ship, and some guy shouted to group back up for another pass, and Franky thought they were calling to him. He said Sentai (translating to something like formation or team) which sounds similar to Hentai (perverted, or in this case, the noun, pervert), which Franky identifies himself as. I remember watching the sub and thinking "theres a joke thats gonna get lost in translation". When the dub (my preferred viewing experience) finally caught up to it, I was surprised. They actually put forth the effort on such a stupid joke, translating the command to "revert for flyby", and Franky thought they said "pervert fly-guy", referring to him. This is the only time i've seen a pun translation not come out as something completely off the wall.

Still waiting for a Slayers movie review. ...One day.

Who else only clicked on the video because the thumbnail looks like Sage holding a chunk of Kryptonite over Supergirl and wanted to find out what the heck it meant?

omg I love super cheesey over the top Magical girl anime and wow Ted Lewis...Each time I hear him speaking all I see is Escargoon

At first I thought Thin Sage looked strange. Now that I'm used to it, Fat Sage looks strange.

Ah that lovely dub. You could listen to it every moment of the day Seriously that dub happened? Wow!

Ted Lewis is a hero! Don't you diss him.

I can't help but see the title as hyper speed gran doll... Which sounds like a creepy sex doll for strangest of collectors with nan fetishises.

Ah this review is too funny XD always a good pick me up! Your impression of Nathan is spot on amusing!

i think the sleeping bag thing would have worked better if they literally said "in your country" it kinda works on curiosity and people would look it up

Should I be worried that I have seen every anime Sage has reviewed so far?

I actually liked this anime, but as a guilty pleasure, of course

4:35 Why do these guys sound like the guys who dubbed Samrai Pizza Cats? I mean seriously, they what they literally sound like to me.

8:57 More importantly, Tracey Sketchit, Giovanni, James from Team Rocket, and Escargoon had the same voice actor?

Some of the voice actors for the female characters sound like guys doing a terrible impression of a woman.

god that line reading by the ultimate bad guy was comedy gold. Also go ninja go ninja go

Didn't CPM originally put out Utena? I know they did the Movie, which I personally loved. Guess I'll have to look up your review on it.

M.D.Geist is one of my absolute favorites to this day.

"Throwing down the sleeping bag" should be a catchphrase by now.

For the record, Captain Taylor was dubbed fairly well by CPM and Slayers wasn't too badly handled by them. IMO. I think Project A-Ko was too.

9:07 IN AMERICA!

hey bennet been a big fan for a while now, and im really glad i found that you have a youtube channel so i can stop going to that guy with the glasses or chaneel whatever, anyway man love the work keep it up

oh man, I think I remember seeing this on the shelf whenever I go to Blockbuster. Oh those were the days.

Suave must have loved the end of Usagi-drop then, hahaha.

That guy sounds like Escargoon from the Kirby cartoon. Is it the same voice actor?

Thankyou sage! I've been waiting for you to rip into Ninja Ressurection for a while and now my wish will come true. Please tear it several new ass holes. PLEASE!!

Whenever that guy speaks it reminds me of samurai pizza cats.

When Sage said Ninja Month, I knew what was coming and I was right. I've been waiting for Ninja Resurrection for a while now. :D

Another great video kept up the good work

Oh God.. That Ninja Ressurection anime ruined my freaking childhood. Ninja Scroll was the literally the *FIRST* anime I watched and that poor excuse of a sequel they made really crumpled by jimmies. I can't wait for sage to tear that lying pile a new one.

7:45 Apparently, henshin sequences turn your body into a wet noodle.

Ted Lewis is the voice of Esargoon on Kirby: Right back at ya!

What animes are used in the intro? Interested at the boxing one and that exploding dude (lol)

I just got this on VHS. It’s a screening copy. You hit on all the points of this OVA. It’s bad and I was liking the bath scene than that weird toy shows up and the mom is listening in and the dad is watching too. Creepy yeah.

is it bad I kinda like how the armor looks

at 9:05 what movie title was Sage focusing on?... just curious.

Did the character designer of divergence eve also worked in this ova?

What as that thing that played during the CHosen one Bit?

more like Hyper Speed GRAND DAD

At 9:05 Was the joke about Bakura Ryou or Isato Kaiza or Koichi? Becauase he also did the voice of Giovanni and there wasn't a peep about that.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with Little Kuriboh's work and the closeup didn't make it clear, which character at 9:00 was Sage dreading?

That NGE reference made me spit water all over my monitor. I'm suing you for damages over that, btw

Depending on who you ask, the modern anime scene was either heralded by or erupted despite CPM.

I'm somehow getting mainly a lot of flashbacks to Shinesman watching this.

Will you ever do a review of Cyber City Odeo 808?

Most people can only wonder what Central Park Media was on when making this.

Ok is anyone else having the video screen not show any image but just play Bennett's voice? Because that is happening with me

It is bad when the short segments of the anime shown make me want to close the window.

And hey Escargoon

Can't wait for the "Ninja Resurrection"!!

They did the Slayers english dub, which was considered one of the best dubs at that time.

Among the other titles in Central Park Media's existence.

keepmup the good work mman

Oh god... why do I like the art style in this show?!

What is a trillby?

Oh Sage how we miss the embodiment of what you were. an otaku in his mother's basement suffering from junk food and folliculitis but tons of fun as long as you weren't in the same room with him!

James? Jack? RYOU!? I fucking love Nathan's voice action and I didn't even know it. XD

I wonder when Bennet will review the Guyver anime?

YES! I was wondering when he'd review Ninja Resurrection... I remember getting both that and Ninja Scroll, saw Ninja Scroll first and absolutely loved it, then saw Ninja Resurrection and wanted to hang myself for even buying it...

Hey, I like eating at TGI Fridays. They have one of my favorite appetizers.

Which came first: Hyper Speed Grandoll or Project A-Ko? Seeing a lot of similarities (or maybe it's just rehashed tropes A-Ko lampooned XD ) Sage, will you ever review Excel Saga? How about Moldiver? A Trigun retrospective? :)

10:04 Even Invader Zim was more subtle than this chick! XD

The bad guy sounds across between the Hooded Claw and Brent Spiner.

Isn't the dad's voice actor the scientist incest villain from Agent Aika?

Sage, let's face it; without bad companies like CPM, guys like you and me would be out of a job.

Was he gonna say Cagali (from Gundam Seed)?

That guy keeps sounding like Escargoon without the banter.

Great Review Sage! Ninja Month! Count me in! Voice acting in this anime lacked direction on what their characters should sound like. It can be cringe worthy or funny, and this show had it all!

How has it taken me so long to find out about you sage?

Do you think that they really the same?

"This looks like a job for Limey-Man!"

Ya know, I just realized something. Bennet absolutely, positively, completely despises truck nuts.

When does the Ninja Resurrection review come out? Seriously, Bennett's schedule is inconsistent: Sometimes the review comes out Sundays, others Wensdays and others Fridays.

a theme park called Kamehame land? Ha. I get it.

'It´s like Nathan Lane were doing a Paul Lynde impression'. Why, this must be as hilarious as Roberto Gómez Bolaños making a Ronald Golias impression. Oh look, i made you Google.

Was this posted on Blip ? I don't remember this review.

8:54 Screw all the rest of that crap! He was the Pokemon Stadium Announcer!! "GOOOOOONE!!! IT'S A ONE HIT WONDER!!!"

I'd be interested in seeing what Sage thinks of Orguss 02.

I loved swave in this episode lol

Help... help... broke- me- this... help... find... brain...

Is this Kill la Kill??
