## Description

Seeking reprieve from a painfully ordinary 9-to-5 existence, mild-mannered office worker Johnson visits the TM Corporation, a company that sells virtual dreams. In Johnson's dream adventure, he's the notorious space pirate Cobra! Accompanied by his android partner Lady Armaroid, Cobra fights the lowlife scum of the Pirate Guild by day and saves sultry sirens of space by night. After the journey is over, events unfold that bring reality into focus. His experience wasn't a dream at all - it was a reawakening of his buried past! With the most feared weapon in the universe, the Psycho Gun, Cobra sets out into the galaxy in pursuit of love, fortune and fame! Based upon the best-selling manga (comic) by Buichi Terasawa (Goku: Midnight Eye), and direction by Osamu Dezaki (The Rose of Versailles, Golgo 13: The Professional). DVD Features: Interview with the Space Adventure Cobra creator Buichi Terasawa, English pilot episode and trailers. Audio: Japanese. Subtitles: English subtitles, plus English on-screen translations.

Review: A fantastic mix of crazy action - A fantastic mix of crazy action, stylish cinematic flair, and the occasional moment of reflection. I saw a review below stating that it "needs better plot", but I have to disagree. For what the series was trying to accomplish, the plot was always spot on. Whether Cobra was planning a heist, fighting the Pirate Guild, helping old friends, or even trying to take a vacation, the action was always varied enough to keep things interesting, and quite solid and satisfying. You were never really sure what kind of strange situations Cobra would find himself in, and the rogue gallery was chock full of memorable villains with fun designs and insane powers, each defeated by Cobra in very fun and creative ways. Sure, you could argue that the plot wasn't exactly high art, but why does it have to be? Why can't a series simply promise a fun adventure, and deliver on that promise in spades? One final thing I'd like to mention is that I found Space Adventure Cobra to be refreshingly brave. Most anime (and television shows in general) have a hard time killing off characters. You know how it goes, the hero defeats the villain, and the villain scampers away only to pop up again endlessly in later episodes. However, Space Adventure Cobra has no problem with killing off both heroes and villains. This creates quite a bit of suspense, since you're seriously never sure who will make it through the episode alive. It's a nice change of pace.
Review: Only if you can understand Japanese - I can't believe it is over 20 plus years since I first saw this in Japan. I can understand Japanese-- which means I like all my amine in original japanese language version. The other reviews are correct there is no English dubbed version on this set. Just has subtitles. If you can enjoy movies with subtitles--then you can definitely enjoy this one. It's like when I watch a French movie with subtitles--i still enjoy it. I have no real interest in the new anime that is out there. I watched some of them but "something" is lacking. My opinion---Nothing beats Lupin the 3rd, City Hunter, Future Boy Conan, City Hunter, Fist of North Star, Original Gundam, etc. I guess I like the classic anime. I waited so long for Space Cobra TV series to come out on dvd.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fantastic mix of crazy action
*by B***N on September 13, 2016*

### ⭐⭐⭐ Warning not Actually English Dubbed
*by A***A on March 8, 2014*

I Got this the second I saw English dubbed I was very disappointed the second I saw the case where it said eng sub not dubbed. The discription is misleading because the only part that is dubbed is the English Pilot in the extras and nothing else. I am bummed it wasn't what I expected but this is still a great series to have in your collection. I guess I still have to wait for the someone to gain some sense and dub this amazing anime.
