Teknoman EP43:Final Battle

[@peteatkinson525]

My all time best cartoon show since my child hood days :-D, Oh fantastic show, Well done for Cheez TV for airing it on Channel 10 back in the 90's

[@moebius_4655]

+Pete Atkinson Yeah dude, i watched it on Cheez TV back in 94 or 95

[@TheJonnie84]

Cheez TV FTW haha. jesus. If it wasnt for them I would have never known about teknoman

[@EthanCruise]

Mine too. Always stayed with me, which is surprising considering how young I was and could barely remember all my shows, but this show had such feels, it stayed with you.

[@MrStoudemire11]

Yep loved watching it before primary school

[@MrBENTPIN]

Sad that the kids today have to watch there shit

[@icyhugs]

D-Boy/Blade has the worst and cruelest fate of all 90s anime heroes, he literally had to kill every single one of his family and lose the very last piece of his memory to end the war. Sigh...

[@benolr64]

Losing his memory was actually a mercy for him. And after everything he deserves a fresh start.

[@oxherdvince]

@@benolr64 Because Radam possesses his family members' body. Radam won't leave their hosts' body until they are about to die.

[@matty856]

He just kept pushing forward...

[@ewancook9107]

He got his memory back and ended up saving the day in Tekkaman Blade 2

[@lillardevans9412]

But him losing his memory was indeed a mercy, after everything that he endured and experienced. He regained his memory years later. In my opinion, that time he had no memory of his life…was a mercy …and a blessing? Why a blessing? It gave his subconscious time to grieve and mourn his family’s loss…and give himself the strength to heal and move forward. Hence when the memories came back, they didn’t threaten to overwhelm him and crush him under their weight.

[@darkscythe1334]

As a kid the saddest and most emotional moment for me was that moment with Pegas. To me it was such a powerful moment and Blade’s explosion of power just makes awesome.

[@tule8669]

What sad is that Blade had to fight and kill all his beloved siblings except sharia.

[@gengchen4887]

That part gave me nightmares, Pegasus getting ripped to slashes by some disgusting tentacles

[@nath_rages]

I remember the Pegas scene as the first time a TV show brought me to tears. I was only a young teen at the time when I saw this during my usual morning watch before school.. Id never seen such a well written or emotional scene on screen before and it has stuck with me since.

[@crazebane4394]

Ive got news for you brother!!!! Evolves twknoman!!!!

[@EthanCruise]

This entire freaking show was sad all around. I think Pegas was just the last real emotional pull that show hit us. The happy and peaceful ending was just perfect, and now he can be free without the burden that he dealt with.

[@juliobrian4757]

This was the battle I wanted to see. My elder brother saw this battle when I went to school and he was at home. He told me of the battle, and only NOW I was able to see this. DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!!!

[@gullydisciple]

Exact same situation with me my brother saw it and described it to me now i can finally watch it

[@tule8669]

The 2nd part is the most epic boss entrance in history of gaming, anime and movies. Darkon truly represents the definition of Final Boss

[@didiervancampo9384]

Perfectly stated❤

[@tavellclinton9256]

Unbelievable that Paul Schrier, best known for playing Bulk in Power Rangers, provided the voice of Sabre in Teknoman!

[@madskillz808]

I always thought he should do more voice work as he seems to have fun doing it.

[@peteranthony8523]

Wow I actually didn't know that

[@DT-wp4hk]

The fat one from og power rangers? Damn

[@HorusHeresy1982]

This was my favourite show as a kid, ran home from school every day to catch it. I haven't ewatched the video yet but I can still tell you Pegas final scene., "Out of my way Robot!" ..."I am no robot. I am Pegas!"

[@bigwog699]

Teknoman is what got me into anime! My world has opened up…

[@Lombardi54]

Thank you for the video. I still remember watching this in the early 1990s. I was never able to watch the final episode until now.

[@richardblachard8290]

A TV show from my childhood with a final episode so good it brings back my childhood in a mere 22 minutes. Damn good old days and memories.

[@Bellski]

RIGHT?! Loved this show!

[@EthanCruise]

Cartoons aren't made like tis again.

[@19sephiroth81]

this anime still one of my favorites one of them i enjoyed alot during the 90's

[@EthanCruise]

:'( The memories! Man they don't make cartoons like this again. This show always left you with a bitter taste in your mouth. And they didn't disappoint at the end. It was so touching, and then seeing the Colonel give that speech about forgetfulness being a good thing for Blade, but everyone else remembering him... and then they take us to "Oh Blade, we will watch them all... together." He been through hell in his life, it's all he knew, and now all he will ever know is peace!

[@CSlinger]

Additional Voices: Bryan Cranston. Yes, before he was Walter White, Bryan Cranston was the doing the voice of Miles O' Rourke in Teknoman.

[@GuidodeKortOfficial]

Saber: "I am now everything that you are! We are truly one and the same! The universe has no need for both of us!!" One of the most all time legendary quotes in anime...

[@ohlawd3699]

This is dope as fuck. I used to watch this when I was a little kid. This and Samurai X was really popular back then. It's definitely one of my favorite anime series for sure. 😊👌

[@castorjones2455]

Ronin Warriors?

[@tule8669]

This anime was pure art.

[@rogerfraser1168]

The question lies, when what level of tecknoman did blade reach at in the final battle!? The sight of Darkon looking perplexed by blade's next level is amazing. Wish we could have seen what his new suit looked like

[@KibaRanger_Kou]

Slaughtering two brothers in one day.

[@richardrampersad1830]

Blade lost his father, sister and killed his brother. Losing so much family so quickly, and knowing that he had to do the same to the last brother, he probably didn't break a sweat. The only thing he could hope for, is to die along with him to be with his family. After fighting so long and hard, the poor guy couldn't even get that. He ended back on earth with no family and no memory and a whinny woman named Star! Talk about shitty end of stick.

[@dominickandrade1288]

Man this was my shin... made my sat mornings in the 90s the best..

[@SurgeCess]

Much more incredible than I remembered!

[@ohlawd3699]

Blade has wasted through all the rest of the Teknomen. Darkon wasn’t even a little worried he could be next.

[@elricengquist9989]

@@user-kc2fu8iw3v Yeah seen both versions, and honestly this is one fo the few series I actually like both version equally. They have two very different way of feeling an conveying something, like how in the original it is how determined he was to defend the earth from the aliens that even after breaking mentally it still hung there, while in the other it is how his strong bonds an ties to the people kept him going an grounded even as they slowly broke till end an his robot companion dying sent him over the edge. I do love how the robot has the same name as the robot in the original Tekkaman from I think it was the 1975 series of the same name. Kind of like a nod an hangover from it.

[@user-kc2fu8iw3v]

@@elricengquist9989 yeah. it's also one of the few dubs where i found the music to be overall better. good music makes the show more memorable for me, especially the opening and closing theme.

[@harmhoeks5996]

Proper final battle was with his brother. As a child, and even today, i wonder if the last fight could've been less 'Deux ex Machina'. Somehow Blade won.

[@LUX711]

Blade’s Teknoman voice reminds me of _The Shadow’s_ voice played by Alec Baldwin 👏🏼🙏🏼💯 Great voice acting here gotta hand it to them

[@hisdudeness8328]

If I'm not mistaken, Darkon sounds like the Apocalypse from X-Men 1990s series. Could be the same voice actor. I love this series. I was able to find a like new DVD set for only $15 at my local comic shop.

Jus going through the replies of this awsome anime...the voice actor name for darkon is correct but it was two diff actors that did the voice for apocalypse in the x men series.when i heard u guys mention to ne the voices are similar but still diff enough for me to feel it was not the same person.quick google..and i was right..not the same actors..that being said the voice of darkon on the dub was epic..wow..every word was with authority

SoftlySpokenGamer Agreed but must keep theme music and stay away from the new one it's so crappy

[@user-kc2fu8iw3v]

lots of it was cut in the western dub (like blade and evil/saber flying all over the earth while fighting), this episode was originally two, one for the final sibling fight, other for the final battle.

[@NathanWubs]

@@user-kc2fu8iw3v Once again late. But a lot of things were cut for the dub. to make it so that there are only 43 episodes instead of 49. probably because of syndication norms.

@@hisdudeness8328 yeah there was that episode scared me as a kids where they all got changed into tekkno suits and his father sacrificed his life saving blade

[@superomegaprimemk2]

I loved this series when I was younger, I still do, complex charaters and a easy to follow plot, plus it was kind of grim and more realistic compared to many other shows, its a shame the Tekkaman 2 series was so short and pretty much botched any chance to real with the actual origins of the invaders, I know that the Tekkamen were Blade's family & Shipmates but the actual alien masters, their origins and reasons were never explored in the show, what was their ulitmate goal and why enslave people as Tekkamen? That's kind of why I forget what happens in Tekkaman blade 2, it doesn't add anything new.

[@EthanCruise]

Didn't follow the second one, but damn it was a brilliant show. Complex character, emotional plotlines, these things are what kids need more of.

[@johnsupernaw7290]

It took me far longer than it should have for me to realize that Blade was actually a Tekkaman.

[@kiloomelow4269]

Jus finished watching over the entire series for the 4th time in my lifetime.still one of my favourite shows ever.alot of the a animation doesn't stand up wel today but its also to do with the inconsistencies with the animators doing half way work and making alot if stuff look off or dont match up..last 2 episodes they make sure the animation was crisp.but the bad animation aside at times.the story and characters is what makes this series so special to me.still stands up today..feels so epic. Darkon as a villan was awsome.anytine he was on the screen he commanded ur attention and when he spoke was with authority and menacing... This series really needs a remake.with proper clean animation.. And my word a movie trilogy of this..done in live action. Wow Done correctly would be one if the most popular movie franchises ever.key wrd if done proper.(story,acting,cinematographer and most important special effects that can make it as realistic as possible) this needs a remake or live action movie trilogy

[@kiloomelow4269]

Will need avatar type of budget to have any chance of being done properly..and with this type of story/a hero with a transformation that puts body armor over him thats almost indestructible fighting aliens that are using humans to fight for them. That's box office gold if done right

Where is Blade's mom, him and Dagger at 18:54 from the image in his mind?

[@hisdudeness8328]

Dagger wasn’t really anyone important to Blade prior to his family’s mission to Jupiter. His twin brother Evil/Saber was more than just a memory to Blade, he was a part of him. Their mother was closer to Evil, so Blade didn’t have as many important memories of her.

The original BGM in the final battle was tragic and sad, especially when Pegas died. I don't know why this version they use such techo BGM witch totally mislead the emotion atmosphere of this final battle. D-boy is one-of-kind character in my opinion, this cartoon is so different from other super hero cartoons I saw which celebrate wins all the time. When I was a kid in early 90s I love this lone knight sooo much and always feel sad for his story. D-boy had became to one unique tragical hero character exists in my memory.

( He never got the procedure finished due to his dad!) When's he powered up he was at everyone else normal level, so when the process was finished what we saw is blades completed form! When he fights darkon and and loses only to evolve! that is the evolved tekamen they were all taking about! That's why darkon was like how is this possible???

[@elricengquist9989]

Yeah in the original one Blade arrived completely unconscious and it is only his instincts to protect his loved ones that keep him fighting. Though I think both do a nice job here in that this one shows him willpower to retain himself regardless of what happens, and the original shows his desire to protect being something ingrained an basic to his entire being.
