Project A-ko Remaster Loop

[@wdcain1]

It such a hoot watching this on Sci-Fi back in the day. Glad it's got a remaster.

[@VaughnJogVlog]

Second anime movie I watched. Saw Vampire Hunter D one Saturday morning in 1997 then the next week it was Project A-Ko.

[@wdcain1]

@@VaughnJogVlog And there was so much variety. Cop drama with Tank Police one week and devil fighting action with Demon City Shinjuku the next.

[@SelfRighteousNewAgeLightWorker]

@@VaughnJogVlog Vampire Hunter D and Project A-KO back to back??? 🤩 That's an elite 90s experience that only a chosen few were blessed with. Think about how today's kids will *NEVER* have that experience!!!

[@IronMan3582]

Saturday Anime was a helluva drug

[@sumisusan1517]

Since when did Sci-Fi air anime?

[@manintheline5331]

Project A Ko is one of the greatest works in animation

[@CrapheadMoleman]

Absolutely. Looks soooo much better than the vast majority of modern anime.

[@DragonKingX78]

I agree, love this anime.

[@justblueboy2939]

So much 80s japan cramed into one video

[@Catkeeper]

Eiko hopping from missile to missile to reach the ship firing them is still one of the coolest things ever animated.

[@DragonKingX78]

Classic Anime, deserves so much more love and attention.

[@hinoron6528]

One of the most interesting Easter Eggs that beautifully hooked western audiences, comic book fans in particular... is the subtle hint that "A-Ko" (a nickname that implies her real name is longer and beginning with the letter A, but never mentioning her full legal name) is the daughter of two mysterious, glasses-wearing parents, named "Clark" and "Diana"... and suddenly the question of why she's so inhumanly strong doesn't need answering anymore... 😃😃

[@functionatthejunction]

The bracers she wears also are a call back to Wonder Woman. They also keep her power suppressed.

[@Dr_Grid1]

Her full name is actually Eiko Magami, we see it written on the chalk board when she introduces herself on her first day at Graviton High

[@hinoron6528]

@@Dr_Grid1 (checks kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5LZiJiFo6hsoLs) Hmm... so I see. Fair point (and cited; a rare treat in YT comment discussions! Well done!) Yet that's not how her name is on the series title. Also there's the other variants where they're not in a high school setting. Also who's to say her secret birth name and the name her disguised parents registered her as with her school are necessarily the same? There's room for mystery still! 👓

[@poleaxed6447]

Making their names sound like A-ko (Eiko), B-ko (Beiko), and C-ko (Seiko) was actually a joke. The letters their names sounded like was the first letter of each characters primary attribute (Athletic, Brains, and Cute).

[@sanachiakilalafell2715]

I am so glad they found the masters and are restoring this masterpiece. I will die happy once I see it in its full glory after so many years.

[@cygil1]

Every panty shot will be CGI removed. All hail Woke!

[@DragonKingX78]

I am very happy they found the masters as well.

[@CrapheadMoleman]

The production values of this is a ridiculously higher standard of quality than the vast majority of anything you aee these days.

[@dunkanbulk14]

It was an OVA, no duh it would be better

[@the-NightStar]

Look, I love Project A-Ko a lot. It's very well made, a wonderful classic, great in just about every way, I grew up with it and still sticks with me now...... but your statement is absolutely very much objectively not true at all. I'm really sick of people that have this bizarre and honestly willfully ignorant need and obsession with having to blatantly disrespect everything modern in brutally unfair terms to compensate for your elitist nostalgia. Why do people have to make themselves look so utterly insecure that they have to bash modern day anime just to try and force this false narrative. For you to sit here and try to make it sound like things such as Redline, Promare, A Silent Voice, Demon Slayer, One Piece films, Violet Evergarden, Kill la Kill, Nichijou, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, and at least 85 other anime made since this havn't massively propelled themselves into a high standard of quality as well, is a statement that only someone willfully ignorant of anime and has no idea what they're talking about would say. You're not only entirely wrong, but objectively so, as well.

[@CrapheadMoleman]

@the-NightStar wow you're a bit rattled. Nothing to do nostalgia, the majority of stuff from the 80's and 90's does look better than the majority of modern stuff. I didn't say all either. Redline is one of the best ever and the reason it stands up with the older stuff is because it's hand crafted.

[@DragonKingX78]

@@CrapheadMoleman I agree, at least when it comes to certain OVAs and movies.

[@DragonKingX78]

@@dunkanbulk14 the first one is a theatrical movie, the sequels are OVAs.

[@McPh1741]

Such a great name from my childhood. I still have the VHS. Need to buy the remastered Blu-ray.

[@hailmammonmoments7568]

Buying the DVD/CD soundtrack combo was joy. Buying this will be eternity. 🫡

[@AstalThe9]

I remember catching this on the Sci-Fi channel late at night, along with other anime movies, including Fatal Fury. I had zero idea what was happening (I had to have been around 10 at the time and this is before anime hit it big in the US), I was dead tired because it was around 0300, but I enjoyed it no less. The missile hopping scene is easily one of my favorite scenes.

[@AssaulteedOne]

Yeah, the remaster for this one on blu ray is stunning. Thought I'd prefer the 4:3 original better, but the 16:9 cut of the remaster really highlights just how much detail is there. A truly amazing blu ray that looks excellent on a 4K TV, even with just a normal blu ray player like the PS3.

[@davidgriffiths2223]

Cool, didn’t it know it was remastered. Truly anime that has it all.

[@DragonKingX78]

It is an anime's anime.

[@VaughnJogVlog]

Great work!

[@Julayla]

If it were redubbed today and had the original dub been lost, I would bet that the females of Steven Universe would've done great redubbing the classic Anime. But that's just my opinion. Still, glad to hear that Discotek finally got a proper remaster of this classic gem.

[@unkono]

Eww

[@King_Colombia_Inc]

I'd prefer Monica Rial as A-ko, Kira Buckland as B-ko, and Brittney Karbowski as C-ko.

[@IronMan3582]

Hi there's a issue with my copy of blu-ray, around 17 minutes in when B-Ko is talking about her plan, the video glitches green and artifacts for several seconds before returning to normal. This only happens in the 4:3 presentation original that I was watching it does not occur in the 16:9 Is this a known issue for any of the runs of the blu-ray?

[@Joshplv]

What is the Music from ????

[@DragonKingX78]

It's from the anime.

[@JaguarCats]

When you realize who her parents are at the end of the film **spoilers** you'd THINK they would had taught her the importance of keeping her powers **CONCEALED!!!**Yet oddly nobody ever seems to suspect she's more than human, save for that part where she stops a steel beam from falling on C-Ko's head.

[@randomuser2461]

That may be why they live in japan. Nobody cares there. And they have bulma/lex luther pulling out stuff equal in power. I think they just blend in there.
