One Of The Most Hidden Gem Animes I Have Ever Seen!
So about a fews years ago, I was on the internet and just looking up images of old anime from the 90s and early 2000s when I stumbled on a picture of the characters from the Cyborg 009 show. Immediately I felt like I had seen these characters and name somewhere before, but couldn't understand why it looked so familiar. Did some research and found that I had seen a bit of this show before on cartoon network when I was really young when the 2003 Astro Boy show was on CN as well.I really enjoy the artstyle of the 90s anime, but really enjoy that classic anime style from shows like AstroBoy, Cyborg 009, and a movie called Metropolis. Let me tell you, it was the hardest thing to find all the English dub on the web to watch this series as it had right's issues and was never distributed much. Luckily someone on Youtube upload all the episodes up to 48 that aired in English, but was very low quality, but I enjoyed it regardless, because this show was fantastic and I loved every minute of it.Fast forward to now and I have the greatest thanks ever to Discotek Media for releasing every single episode in English dub on this SD to BD. I was overjoyed that this hidden gem of an anime series was being released in English with the God's War arc as well , as I had never seen it in English before. They did the best job that they could do with what they had to bring this show to public again. I am so thankful that they have created this wonderful Blu-ray for such a timeless classic anime.

Pretty much all you could hope for
This, from what I can tell, is the most complete way to buy this series. Prior to this, it was almost impossible to track down all of the episodes in a consistent quality or format. As far as just having the complete series with little compromise, it's pretty great that this is available.With that being said, while this series can be pretty silly, it still is a really fun nostalgia trip. I'm finding it hard to leave my bias at the door so that I can actually tell you that this show is just alright. If you enjoyed this show in the early 2000's, I highly recommend picking this up while you can. If you have zero exposure to it and are just interested in the 50+ years of history behind this franchise, this is a great starting point too.

Best Anime Ever!!!!
I have been waiting for this beyond amazing series for almost 17 years! I have bought any and every cyborg 009 dvd I could find. Some had okayish subtitles and others had limited english dubs. This blue ray has every single episode and all in quality. This series is worth every penny! I have read all of the manga and everything I could get my hands on. This blue ray is a blessing and the best way I could find to start my new year! All the time it must have taken to put all of these episodes together is just mind boggling. I have and will always highly recommend this series to everyone I meet!!!

Almost perfect
Season 2 has too much video filtering, but every other aspect of this set is 10/10. Discotek and MediaOCD have resurrected a series that has been neglected for a long time. If you like the english dub, this set has all the episodes in english and japanese. If you prefer the japanese version, they have brand new subtitles! My gripes about season 2 are somewhat subjective, and I still highly recommend this set.

Finally after so long a complete collection of Cyborg 009
So I've been looking for this series since I started making my own money. I've watched this series as a kid and loved it. Before you could only get bits and pieces of the series but now I have the entire series. At first I thought it was another one or two episodes disk but nope to my delight it was the whole thing. I was so overwhelmed with not I Insta bought it. Little pricey but I think in the long run once these start disappearing off the shelf the price is gonna sky rocket so if you're a fan get it now.

Satisfied
Worth every penny. I was huge into this series when it was on toonami then they dropped it to adult swim and it died off fast. That's how I remember it going. I could be wrong. Any way for what they where working with it looks great. Yes it is dubbed in English. I haven't finished it yet but when I get to the last episode i recall; it will be cool to see where it goes.
