Venus Wars - Shakunetsu no Circuit - Joe Hisaishi

[@789alizaidi]

Just watched this movie in 2024 and absolutely loved it

[@TheBabylonBurning]

This song is the "Danger Zone" of 90s anime. Brings back such good memories.

[@MacrossVice]

TheBabylonBurning The manga and anime movie came out in the 80's.

[@Spazticspaz]

You mean Danger zone sounds like Venus Wars. This style of music is patented Japanese harmony

[@Shogoeu]

@@Spazticspaz What's even danger zone? By the way we are responding to a 5 year old comment.

[@Spazticspaz]

@@Shogoeu kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYbWd4qFZZ12hZI The theatrical theme of Top Gun. You are responding to a 5 year old comment, I responded when it was 4 years :) and no amount of time should restrict us from having friendly discourse.

Wars, tanks, angry youths, and motorcycles,,,, and a song that rocks! what more can I ask for?

[@雷電Z]

*well written characters?*

[@turboparadise]

@@雷電Z Well written characters are needed for 99% of anime out there. The music and the art more than makes up for whats lacking. You cant say that for most other anime

[@雷電Z]

@@turboparadise They simply asked what more could be asked for. And I gave the obvious answer of what everyone knows this OVA lacks. Do not shoot the messenger,

[@slyapbg]

@@雷電Z They're written well enough for an action film.

[@markkussusa]

I watched this one back in 93-94. Those where the times... Even back then I knew there was a whole layer in it that I was too kid to understand. Rewatching it... Gosh, what a story. So sad.

[@Slugg0n]

It's been a while but it seems like it was a cyberpunk take on Lawrence of Arabia.

[@XxRelmxX]

I love anime with no easy gimmicks for animation. No CG, no blurry effects, ... It's so fresh to see true organic and physic animation !! This song is awesome to, love the way it's used in the anime. I never know it was a Joe Hisaishi song ... good to know. :p

[@kuarapika]

simply gorgous in movement

[@ook3th3roo31]

except anime is nothing but gimmicks to give the illusion of movement. its completely different than traditional animation purely because of budget constraints. it wasnt until the mid 80s when the talent and techniques we know and love were developed. watch an old episode of speed racer or star blazers and tell me im wrong. that was deff the foundation for something great later on tho thats for sure.

i love when this song finds me again

[@mbern4530]

I discovered Venus Wars in the early 90s and I've been listening to this song since then. I'm pretty sure this was one of the first songs I ever downloaded off the internet. Still as good as ever.

[@davidanderson6232]

This song and movie was my entire childhood. And now that I've found it as an adult, i watch it once a week. Especially the hi-dive version and the one i found online. The dub is different in both

[@honkfr]

same here, this anime was feel so real and powerfull and the songs are so great. pure masterpierce.

Hey Max, how's Valerie? Just kidding ;) Did you know a remake/reprint of the original board game "Siege of the Citadel" was recently kickstarted? It's supposed to come out in like october 2017. I missed the kickstarter but I'm still going to wait and see if they are going to release a Swedish translated version. Also, this song is indeed awesome!
