Title: Finally on DVD
Product review: Before this film came out in Japan (1981), Galaxy Express 999 had been a manga, TV series and feature-film. This film feels like more of a re-telling of the previous film than a sequel to it (boy gets on train... 2 1/2 hours pass... then a machine planet is destroyed). But the feel of this film is different. The film seems a bit more harsh and dark, even in the colors on the screen. The animation is a bit of a step up from Galaxy Express 999.With this DVD you get:* The film, uncut and restored. The colors are quite sharp.* The Viz dub from 1996 is used. Japanese audio and subtitles are also available.* A short image gallery* A trailer for Galaxy Express 999, the same one as on the Galaxy Express 999 disk.* A trailer for Adieu Galaxy Express 999, the same one as on the Galaxy Express 999 disk.* The "Sayonara - love light" song is used in the menus.It's been 15 years since this film was released on VHS by Viz. It's nice that a clean copy of this film finally made it to DVD.
