Oh, wow - this is the same person who made "Hold Me Now", which is in my opinion the best
Princess Tutu AMV
ever. Downloading the video as I type...
Edit: Download's done, and I've watched the AMV. My, but she likes May (who doesn't appear at all in the first season)... She also included a spoiler (which I won't identify); at least the clips weren't in the same order as in the series, so that isn't as bad as it could have been. Yes, this one's a keeper.
Quote:I don't know Kaleido Star at all, but just seeing that I want to search it out and watch it all.
Kaleido Star was created and directed by Junichi Sato. He also created and directed
Princess Tutu, Magic User's Club, Strange Dawn, and
Pretear (and directed
Sailor Moon, Sailor Moon R, Gatekeepers, and
Sgt. Frog, amongst others). That, combined with
http://robkelk.ottawa-anime.org/primer/ ... ml#kaleido]the Anime Primer entry for the series, should give you an idea what the story's like.
Quote:I'll look for it and see what kind of price/availability I can get before resorting to torrents.
Good idea -
Kaleido Star was licenced and co-funded by ADV before production started, so there's no question on who owns the US rights.
As a starting point for comparison shopping, you can get the stripboxes (none of the extras) of the two seasons for less than $100 total, according to
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclo ... hp?id=5497]this page and
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclo ... p?id=11844]this page. (But if you can get the singles instead, go for it - ADV stripped out a
lot of extras in making those two boxes. Besides, the collected singles for the second season appear to be less expensive than the second season box set at the moment.)
After that, then you'll only be out two OAVs, which are so readily available fansubbed that even I have copies of them.
