Alternate versions
Before the series was aired in the USA on the UPN network, several changes were made to the original English version, produced by Saban. The name of the main character, "Blade", was changed to "Slade", and the name of one of his enemies was changed as well, from "Dagger" to "Gunnar". In this reversion, two of the character's voices were changed as well: as "Slade", Bob Bergen replaced David A. Thomas Jr., and Michael McConnohie replaced Kerrigan Mahan as Ringo Richards. The first version produced is copyrighted 1994 in the credits, and the UPN version is copyrighted 1995. The UPN version only aired 26 episodes; the "international version" ran for 43 episodes.

I really got addicted.

When this was 1st (and as i can recall only) time on Sky in England, I was fortunate to watch it on an old sky channel, and was blown away. really it was the 1st of few anime series ive seen and possibly remains my fav cos few people know of it, and if it came out on dvd, i'd seriously consider buying it.

Story is basic, earth invaded by aliens and mysterious figure 'teknoman' takes up the fight for earth, and gradually the war swings in earths favour (thanks to some technology & tactics)

4.999/5
