Princess Ariel Great Moments from Thundarr The Barbarian.

Princess Ariel from Thundarr The Barbarian.
She is one of favorite female characters of all time. Working on top 20 all time.

Still obsessed with this show and I’m 52 years old!

Yep.

I have to say that she was one of the reasons that I love watching Thundarr.

[@emjay6482]

dude.. real shit... I'd rather watch any thundarr the barbarian episodes over any reality show..... what a shame

[@thomascrownrg]

I never noticed how nice the animation really was. They took their time with Ariel lol.

[@Nepthu]

This vid reminded me of why I loved Ariel as a kid. What a great character! I was too young to remember this much, but she had a cool personality, witty dialogue and a memorable voice actress. Plus, I loved her powers. The cast of Thundarr was terrific.

[@user-uc7uk7cz1h]

私も、アリエル好きでした(^o^)

[@maxgremln]

It's coming back to me now. Ariel really was the brains of that particular operation wasn't she.

[@michaelbauers8800]

Undoubtedly. Thundarr wasn't a total tool. But neither Thundarr or Ookla was mental giants. And Ariel knew lore as well, often mentioning historical details. She should have had a back story.

[@LadyDeirdre]

@@michaelbauers8800 She did; all of them did. It was just never brought up.onscreen. Her father (stepfather, actually) was a wizard, the one who initially trained her, and also the one who enslaved both Thundarr and Ookla. The slave revolt Thundarr led is also what led her to leave her stepfather's service. The pilot episode would have covered this, but plans changed. So far as I know, the only footage of her stepfather is from the opening; he's the one who summons the demon.

[@MD-yp4qc]

@@LadyDeirdre Thanks for that LadyDeirdre. This should have continued.

[@dwoodwoo65]

@@LadyDeirdre I have a vague recollection from reading in a magazine article that her step father created the sun sword and she gives it to Thundarr, and they there are seven wizards (shades of five wizards in Tolkien…). Her step-father was one such wizard and Gemini is another, and that they are on a a quest to defeat all the wizards. I’ll have to see if I can find that old article.

I was 7yrs old when this came on back n 1980, Superfriends was my go to action show from 1977-1979, until Thundarr hit the airwaves then i was a diehard fan of this one big time!

[@kenb2671]

“Demon Dogs!”

[@alcodie1558]

This was one of the very best cartoons ever !!

[@SweetBerryWine3000]

Ariel the Sorceress! The year: 1994. From out of space comes a runaway planet, hurtling between the Earth and the Moon, unleashing cosmic destruction! Man's civilization is cast in ruin! Two thousand years later, Earth is reborn. A strange new world rises from the old: a world of savagery, super science and sorcery. But one woman bursts her bonds to fight for justice! With her companions Ookla the Mok, and Thundarr the Barbarian, she pits her strength, her courage, and her fabulous Powers of Sorcery against the forces of evil. She is Ariel, the Sorceress!

[@phillipelliott51]

Super cool 😎

[@davidblack2693]

I LOVE THE SOUND OF THAT.ARIEL. the sorceress

[@camcordernonsense5264]

Thundarr whistles and Ariel jumps to her horse.

[@spartansrace4293]

4:30 one of the best of all TTB episodes. This cartoon was sooooooo ahead of it's time. As a 10 year old watching this cartoon, it truly was for adult viewing due to thw great sarcasm between Thundarr and Ariel. They played off each other well.

[@paulpolpiboon9535]

The statue of liberty came to life!! And then her torch flame threw?!! I mean dang, pre ghost busters II. What a frikin comic book this AWESOME show is✊

Nellie Bellflower who voiced Ariel is hard to find on youtube. There was only one interview I found and that's it. It's a shame too because she did allot of voice work.

I remember and own Blackstar on dvd. Thundarr arrived 1st on NBS , then Blackstar came a season later on CBS . in the ultimate battle, Team Thundarr would def Team Blackstar....but it would be a great battle

[@silverraven250]

The problem with that is, it would be an episodic adventures with no hard lore or canon. We still don't know how Thundarr met Ariel or Ookla, how he escaped from imprisonment, or how he got the sun sword. Thundarr would be toxic as fuck, Ariel wouldn't do much, gets captured and bound in almost every episode Ookla is fine, and all of the villians would be weekly encounters then forgotten about. Only Gemini showed up twice. Updates are a necessary evil. As long as the people behind it care it will be good.
