I watched the series on DVD several years ago; intense!

04-05 (actually 04/06 late night/early morning), but as the TCM schedule runs from 6 am to 5:59 am, etc.



BTW, there was also a LW&C TV series; just as intense!

The original manga is amazing.

I think I actually bought the 1st 1, but, it was sooo small (how small was it?) Its pages were so small as to be very difficult and frustrating for a 1-armed guy to read. Difficult for keeping it open and yet, holding it close enough.

So, anyway, I was intro-ed to a webpage that calculates peoples' ages based on facial structure. I was certain that Daigorō (Cub) was much older than the 3 he was supposed to be. Sure thing, it said he was 6.


One of these days, I will surely make a comparison between Bond's DB5 & Cub's baby cart!

I read it in the tiny volumes, but now they've reprinted it in larger (though also fatter) volumes. So it's easier to read, though probably even harder to hold. But if you can figure out a way, it's mind blowing. It begins as an episodic series, but the second half is basically a continuing story of 3000 pages of so.

Thanks, tegeus-Cromis. I have neither the time, $, nor space for that right now; maybe in the hereafter.

More to come!

Not sure if these are the same ones, though!
