It's superman... NO! It's IPPATSUMAN!

Sat Nov 22, 2008, 7:58 PM

Ah! The f***ing memories!

I've been searching for Gyakuten! Ippatsuman for the longest time, the only VHS copy of the Japanimation series dubbed in Cantonese that my cousin had, got overwritten and I've been trying to find it ever since. It was so hard, because I only knew what it was called in Chinese, I didn't know how to search for it online and the net didn't have the chinese name of the show.

Well, I finally found the title of the show, thanks to the soon to be released game: Capcom v Tatsunoko: Cross Generation of Heroes. I found some episodes on Youtube, but I really want to relive my childhood and find the Cantonese dub. Does anyone know where I can find that? - The series is from 1982, so I don't think they're selling it anymore I presume?

Any help would be great.

lol, I admit that there are some really crappy chinese dubs, but there are some pretty good ones too. I grew up watching the HK dubs for DBZ and I hated the english version when it aired in nz...

Thanks, I know nothing of torrents, will have a look into it..

The English subs for DBZ sucks..haha

I think it's best to go hunting in some chinese forums...uwants.com etc. Or create a post to request for it if you have no luck.

Or you can try chinese video stores in Auckland, or the chinese CD stores (I know there's a couple in howick and theres on in mid city -up the stairs from the tatoo shop)

lol.. yes!

Oooo.. true, chinese forums, but do I have to type in chinese? Because I don't know how to, let alone know the words lol. I've been to some in Howick around meadowlands, but never saw any.. guess I should try the ones in midcity. Haha, thanks so much for the suggestions.
