Oh, holy fuck.
I think it's been 30 years since I've seen Battle of the Planets. Jesus, that theme. How could I have forgotten that music?
Shit. I feel old. And like I never had any taste. "Vita-what"? Jeez.
OH, MY GOD! IT'S EATINGNEO-TOKYO THAT NAMELESS CITY!!!!!
Worst anti-tank barrage ever!
*GIANT SPACE TERRAPIN - "space terrapin", seriously? - MELTS ROCKETS LAUNCHERS*
PWNED, BITCHES!!!!!
"Why should aliens want to steal our precious vitaluminum?"
WHY, WHY INDEED?
Oh, Christ. Was there any character in the 70s Casey Kasem didn't voice? Mark sounds exactly like Robin from Superfriends. Yeah, this is going to fuck with my head.
"And this is Princess, the only female member of the team"
Yeah, I wanted to talk to you about that. *brandishes shovel*
"I sort of pay special attention to Princess. I really don't know just why."
On top of everything, the robot's a fucking perv.
"This is Keyop. He's very 'special'. And 'different'. He was manufactured, grown from a single embryonic cell in the laboratory. His speech is a little peculiar...".
Gosh, I'm torn between punchlines here - I can't decide between 'GENETIC ENGINEERING: UR DOING IT WRONG" and "REVEALED: THE REAL REASON BUSH WON'T FUND STEM CELL RESEARCH".
*Keyop's first line of dialogue*
Shit. That's - I can't... whoa.
*quits the page*
Well, that hasn't aged well. Then again, it was a cartoon series made out of a pastiche of the g-rated bits of a 1970s Japanese manga involving a hemaphroditic villain - the chances of it living up to my memories were never good. Sometimes it's true, you can never go "home" again.
