Dominion Tank Police Opening Japanese

[@Anon26535]

Patlabor is what people wish cops were like. Tank Police is what they're actually like.

[@anthonypimentel7218]

Ain't that the truth

[@BellowDGaming]

Metal Slug before Metal Slug

[@duketogo25]

This song is so delightfully late 80's. I effing LOVE it. Japan, why are you so good at things?

[@marcelosadasilva1973]

Cause gringo turds suck so bad at their retard toons & Wokerism shit. Crappy culture who dares to vanish with superior ones like this most honored ancient one. No respect for the elders these woke morons.

[@MaveriKat]

Because they didn't give a flying f*ck about the Western Audience back then; they made things to their own tastes.

[@Davethe3rd]

How interesting that both the Japanese and English themes both fit the animation so well, but make the scene feel so different...

[@spiritdetectivesteve4691]

This, New Dominion, Gunsmith Cats, Dragonball and Iria I still have VHS for. The Nostalgia is strong guys...

[@jinsaotome3607]

iria was the sh*T

[@Mina27325]

Here's my opinion: this intro is better than english version. But the dub and the rest of the music is better for me in English.

[@whoyodaddyyo]

This show is so fucking kickass. 80's ftw, they do NOT make anime the way they used to.

[@Fluorescent523]

Hot Dance in Cherry Moon!

[@Drazgarus]

It actually took me 20 years to rediscover the very first real anime that actually struck me back in my childhood.

[@supertt5292]

SUPREME OPENING ! . ONLY JAPAN !

[@JorgeLopezC]

This was the first (and only) anime I ever bought on Laserdisc(!) when I was a teenager and I remember it being hilarious.

[@otakumangastudios3617]

I was actually looking for the manga for the series! Can you please tell me what it's about? I realize it's by the same dude who made Ghost in the Shell and appleseed, a little known project of his. I fell in love with the series apple seed when I was 8 years old, when I was introduced to my first r-rated film. Granted it was the remake in 2004, but I still loved it. I will never ever say that film is bad, because like how so many people never claim that pokémon is bad even though intrinsically is, because there was a part of their childhood, apple seed is a huge component of what got me into seinen anime and manga.

[@TheBurningDonut]

This was one of the first animes I ever saw!

[@PrimusProductions]

The manga was written by the same writer of the Ghost in the Shell manga, the Puma twins also make a cameo in Ghost in the Shell as do one of the tank mecha.

[@megamanx8566]

Primus Productions Wikipedia anyone

[@civilwarfare101]

And Appleseed.

[@peridot9987]

The Ghost in the Shell movie really isn't great. Bastardized Shirow's vision and style. Appleseed and Tank Police are much better representations of his style.

[@steadholderharrington9035]

@@peridot9987 You just have to remember that Shirow, Masamune also did G.I.T.S and G.I.T.S.: 2nd Gig, as well as G.I.T.S.: Solid State Society in his later years, and his 3 G.I.T.S. anime movies were pretty much spot on. The only move that got bastardized was the Live-Action "Remake" with Scarlett Johansen filling the titular role of Major Kusanagi, Motoko.

[@lookitskazzy]

Sir a tank is not a mecha. Nice work cribbing wikipedia BTW. His name is Shirow Masamune.

[@sethmann5964]

Even till this day it still an banger!!!!! 👌

They didn't have to go so hard on this banger but here we are.

They gave it their best shot, but I can't feel the power that they've got...

WOW. flashback to sneakin those tapes from my Aun'ts room back in 3rd grade lol

[@mikoswhackgameandstuffvids480]

A friend gave me 2 VHS tapes when I was a kid 10+ years ago. With the tank police part 3 and 4 and the other tape with the first 2 New dominion tank police episodes. Really liked the anime. Too bad the episodes are only 6.

「ドミニオン」って実は日本より海外で人気なんだろうね、とコメ欄を見て思う テーマ的には、地球の汚染問題とかが根底にあるんだけど、やはり海外では単純なコメディアクション扱いなのかねぇ

[@CSLucasEpic]

This series predicted that, in the future, the Police would use military grade equipment, including tanks. Boy were they absolutely, 100% correct!

[@gamermasta525]

It's truly frightening isn't it

[@Davethe3rd]

If police started actually using tanks, everybody at Fox News would faint and get erections.

[@adamwallace7353]

Masamune Shirow was partially inspired to create Tank Police by news footage he saw from South Africa of the heavily militarized police over there during apartheid.

[@AlanGChenery]

The US has had law enforcement with tanks since roughly the time Dominion was made. The ATF and FBI both had armoured vehicles without a main gun, for breaching walls etc, and on occasion (like wako in 93) they would just use straight military assets (including multiple tanks and APCs in that case).

[@nvongsa]

ahh a hidden gem from the old school 🔥

[@danlafond5100]

More great anime miss them

Nope :)

No, i like this version since its the original but i like the english one too. Why not both?

You're not alone 🙌

The Japanese version will always be the best. I love this opening and this anime.

[@labrae]

I'm thinking how it would look live action. If they were to do a live action using American actors, right off the bat: The Rock can play the squad leader, "Britain"; Jack Black can play the criminal leader, "Buaku"; Leona Ozaki, the lead character can be played by Orphan actress, Isabelle Fuhrman (I haven't thought through who all the characters can be played by, but, these actors would be the pick. Just saying...)

Me too. Leona's personality is different in the 1992 version-she's more aggressive while the 1988 version she's more friendly and wide eyed.

_Dominion Tank Police._

[@atago_]

[@Flegan777]

Ditto. Only tone deaf weeaboos would think this sounds better. The English version gave the song more personality. This sounds like an opening for an entirely different anime or some background music for an 80s bar. Doesn't make me think of a tank-driving police force at all.

[@ramonantoniobennett-ryuuke6301]

I love both openings, but i cant even find the soundtrack in English nor Japanese. The English version sounds like something from an late 1980s/early 1990s BET music video!

[@Flegan777]

90s? Lol, the 90s didn't have music like that. Reversing what I posted doesn't make your argument compelling in the least, just so you know.

[@Flegan777]

While that is true, there are clear differences that need to be noted.

[@sanjurosama]

The difference being, the English version is generic and repetitive house.

[@benitofinito]

Wow the English version is so much better.

[@sanjurosama]

The English version is just generic 90s stuff you can find anywhere. Considering the show was made in the 80s, it just doesn't fit in it.

[@HotaruZoku]

One of the rare moments when the English version BEATS the Japanese version.

[@starlightviga]

Yes!

[@HotaruZoku]

***** No argument. And yet I still love it.

[@juraiknight]

HotaruZoku I actually didn't like the English version of this song...something about them just saying "Tank Police! Feel the power that we've got!" over and over again kind of bugged me. I think the Japanese version fit the theme of the anime and the opening animation a lot better. But that's just me.

[@juraiknight]

***** Right? Plus, the show wasn't really all that serious. I mean, Leona throws daggers at a suspect while wearing a bunny suit to interrogate him! So I think this style of music hits the theme better; kind of a quirky off the wall 80's police show. With tanks!

[@sanjurosama]

HotaruZoku I'm not a big fan of 90s house.

[@Flegan777]

Case closed because you ragequit? I'm not surprised. By the way, stopping replying when it's nearly 4:00 in the morning here.

Mind your own business man. Why are you trying to restart an argument that's ended? I'm not acting like anything, and I never said the world revolves around me.

[@Flegan777]

Personal and personality aren't the same word. You're not even using it right. What's so amazing about the original version? Nothing really. It's generic 80s stuff you can find anywhere.

[@FaIheim]

English theme is a way better to me.
