That's what I think also and that's why I wished for a sequel! I've also pictured some sequels in my mind but never made it to write a fic. I tried to download (to tell the truth I always ask my husband to do so as he is the expert) episode 48 of Gatchaman F from softwares like Limewire or Emule but I couldn't as there wasn't enough feedback.

To be honest, no I never saw them but thanks for sending them on to me ... I'll promise to find some time and view them. Though I like the Gatchaman version more than BotP I will be more than happy to do so! Unfortunately when watching youtube clips our computer tends to cut at intervals as it is overloaded and a bit slow - needs to be upgraded again!

Hi all!
If you really want to watch Battle of the Planets in Italian, and don't want to deal with a slow computer speed, you'd probably be better off buying the Italian "Gatchaman - La Battaglia Dei Pianeti" DVDs that Yamato Video released in Italy a little while back. They released 11 volumes with 83 of the 85 Battle of the Planets episodes (Apparently they couldn't locate the Italian audio tracks for the two remaining episodes). The episodes are bilingual -- Italian and English. As a bonus on the final disc, they included the Italian dub of episode #'s 103 and 105. You can find them for sale on sites like eBay Italy or through webshops like Euroanime.it.

Welcome gatchamarie! Sorry I'm late but real life has been taking up my time.
You're from Malta! My parents used to live in Malta when they were first married. My Dad was posted there from the Royal Marines. He has said it was a beautiful place. I would like to visit there someday.
I'm glad we have another person to talk with about Gatch!

Sounds like a wonderful place to get engaged, Marie! My husband and I got engaged at his apartment, while playing a board game. It was a rather geeky board game, and somewhat obscure, but that romantic feeling came back again when we saw the guys on the Big Bang Theory playing it.
Regardless, we love Disneyland, and decided that we needed to visit some form of Disney every year. This year we are in a drought, however, as we are planning on two Disney visits next year, one of them in January. We decided we could be strong and wait until then.
You are very lucky having gotten to watch Gatchaman II and F as a child! I had BOTP only, and while it had a lasting (positive) impression, I was also severely warped by 7-Zark-7. I can only hope to atone for that terrible consequence with my fanfics as an adult.
I hear you on the little kids, but I have a secret... we don't have cable. Or satellite. Just regular, over-the-air channels. So no Disney Channel, no Nickelodeon, no Cartoon Netowrk... nothing. What do the kids watch? DVDs. Lots of DVDs. Whatever DVDs we buy for them. Hence, when they were 3 and 5, I was watching Gatchaman, and they watched right along with me. Now they enjoy Gatchaman (and its incarnations) too! Along with other stuff, of course. And they're suckers for a good Disney film as well.

Glad to hear so and that my conviction that not so many people from far away countries knew anything about our small island is turning around!
I never tire of talking about Gatch though I feel a bit of an amateur compared to all of you when reading through all your statements including so much quotes and episodes which I somewhat have forgotten by time. You are my teachers and it's never late to learn more! Thanks again to all for your welcome.

Don't worry, Gatchamarie! We all have different levels of knowledge and understanding of all the series! But we're all here enjoying the same show and all it's incarnations - and that's the most important part. Learning the episodes, plots, character traits, etc., will come and is something I think we've all learned from eachother. So give it a little time and don't hold back! We'll fill in the blanks for you along the way! 
BTW, when it comes to the episode names and their corresponding numbers, I still don't know how TJ and LB can rattle them off so easily! I generally have to look them up...

Well, I do have this bookmarked -I especially need it for BOTP titles!

Posted by clouddancer on 21-06-2009 at 23:17:
I have several sites like that bookmarked as well. My problem is I usually need to know either the Gatch Title, BOTP Title or eps. number before I can do a cross reference. And usually I have nothing more than an image or line that was said in an ep. which does not help.

I have to say that writing canon episodes into fics, and doing the episode writeups once a week helps a LOT when trying to remember various scenes/episodes.
But I feel like a bumbling idiot in that department compared to James! 
James!

Yes, in fact, there must be lot of Maltese migrants now living in Australia - one uncle of mine is one of them - and I also wish to visit your country some day cause I too think yours is a wonderful place to visit. Fortunately enough Gatchaman made it here! It was also just a few months ago that whilst browsing tv channels I encountered a familiar picture on the screen of one of our latest Maltese channels and, yes, it was Episode 1 of Gatchaman 1 in English! I was thrilled but when I tuned in the same time at the same channel for various days (and after checking with its weekly list of programs) I found out that they did not continue the series! What a delusion! Shame on them!

If not a problem can I ask someone's help please regarding how to attach an image with my replies? I'm trying to experiment as a beginner but I think I'm messing up! To attach an image I entered "Edit Attachments" then I browsed to find a saved .jpg file, opened it and clicked on the "Add" button. What shall I do from there on please as something was loading but no attachment or image was seen in my reply? Thanks beforehand for your help

I think I know what went wrong when trying to send an image as after some trials I noticed that a message appeared on top of window saying that my file was too large to be sent! Will try some other time. Thanks the same for patience.

I'd suggest using Photobucket (free site) to upload pictures...then just copy and paste the [IMG] code into your posts...that's how I do it...
