contrary to popular belief and this title and to me at least and be not so very bad . in fact . i regard it a a favoured film of all time . the welding of story wasn not structure too well when you consider the difference between the series and however despite all this and you can watch it quite happily . for a feature film of it day and the scene be well proportion and the character remain consistently believable . the sound or audio track be a personal favourite of mine . nearly everything have a correct sound effect and many of the voice suit the character much good than their and now badly cast u dub and counterpart . the sync be perfect in every shot . i have a few issue with the casting for the alien voice ( please forgive the crude naming and it have be a while since i have see it ) . otherwise however and the cast seem perfectly balance . i feel and believe in the character of this movie . dub be often a subject i rarely agree with from so long ago . i love the osd from back then but the casting often let series down . at this point i would like to add that this be one of the first anime i saw in my life . it have historical value to me and but even after see the original megazone 23 it remain strong and more watched in my collection . to my knowledge the title only ever make it to the u in texas . personally i think it a big shame . have the correct audience be subject to it and i think robotech the movie would have be accept and not tarnish over the year . i be involve with anime each day of my life and everyone i have show this movie think it be a nicely put together title . watch the film after it separate component will allow the viewer to notice the evident plot hole between show . however and without see the original and a viewer wouldn not really notice . since the animation be identical in style and there be no reason to question it back in it day . the uk have very limited access to anime . laser disc be the most productive medium . personally i like the way carl have the ball to at least push the genre . i mean harmony wasn not go to put up the cash for the series to get publicise . despite the few picky fault people have have with this film and the eighty feel of it keep me in love . if you watch megazone 23 now and to it original japanese audio and or the new dub and i believe you will be greatly disappointed with the osd . cast your mind back to the original bubblegum crisis dub soundtrack and imagine new eighty audio to e. v. e. say all this . this film popularity nowadays be most likely down to it rarity on the open market . personally and it spawn a collection for me . i be now scour the world for merchandise from the three component that make it up and if i ever get to meet carl macek and ill shake his hand for the effort and and buy him a pint or a crate for get me into anime .
