Summary: What anime isn't cool?
Review: After seeing this I wasn't surprised that I liked it, most all anime is awesome, good storyline { its about the same as most anime} but still cool.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: this alpha and omega of anime
Review: back in 1994, a friend was staying over at my house. it was about 3:00 am. a show called Saturday Night Anime was on the sci-fi channel. we checked it out. the feature was Green Legend Ran. it was the best anime was i have ever seen, which is saying quite a lot. green legend ran tops even yu-yu hakusho (my favorite series), cowboy bebop, evangelion and those who hunt elves (tee-hee-hee!). if you want a taste of kick-bum anime, you should definitly see it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome movie
Review: First of all, this is not the version shown on Scifi channel. That version is cut for time and content. Ran is a great 3-part anime series and has become one of my all time favorites. It mixes some good scifi and action and has memorable characters.

Summary: Not that bad......
Review: I thought this was a good little anime. I enjoyed it a lot. It does have some drag along the way on the story, but they are just small little drags (Like some conversation). The animation is simple but it does look good. I would say that it is a good addition to any fan of anime, that likes the sci fi genre. The story is good, not perfect, but good. (There is a small little love story in it, so cute) Once again, it's not that bad, it's pretty good.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: its okay, not that fantastic
Review: If you want to add this to your anime collection, its okay. A little slow, boring (has some drags), but as a whole its alright. Animation quality is good, plot is interesting enough. It's one of those post holocaust movies where water/rain/greenery is so rare. It's a long movie, but there are a lot better anime titles than this, so get something else first before getting this one for your collection. I am almost certain this is kid friendly.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It's pretty cool
Review: Like most who reviewed this, I saw it on the Sci-Fi channel years ago. And just recently, someone mentioned the name of it on a message board regarding anime on Sci-Fi years ago. So I bought it to see what it was all about.

This OVA is above average. The characters are all cool, and the music fits in with the scenes well. For an anime that's only 3 episodes/parts long, they got in some pretty good character development. Something that's missing in most mainstream anime (ie- Dragon Ball Z). Green Legend Ran's story is good for the most part. But in the last 10-15 minutes, I just got lost. So much was happening, that I needed to watch it 3 more times just to figure out what I missed when I blinked. Some people say this series lags in some parts, I didn't think so. There was something going on in all scenes.

Someone said that they thought this is "family friendly" or something. Not at all. There's breif nudity in the middle/later parts, cussing from the main character- Ran, and quite a few graphic deaths of innocent people and soldiers. This is a futuristic movie, so all weapons do rediculous damage to people when used.

You'll really be able to feel for Ran as he goes over events that happened when he was a child, and even if he is sort of bratty, he's a very good protagonist. You should check this DVD out if you're looking for a short series, or just something new. Just remember- there's no menu on this. All extras are at the end...and they're pretty crumm. The "interview" with the producer/director is a whole 2 short questions. And the music video...you see it right before the actual music video is shown since it's the end song. Either way, you should check this out when you have a chance.
