Lupin 3: Bye Bye Liberty Crisis

I am still on vacation so it's time for another cheesy SMC post. This time I dive in to one of my favorite anime characters, Lupin III in Bye Bye Liberty Crisis.

Marvels of South Korean Animation: Raiders of Galaxy

Back in "the day" South Korea had a short-lived ban on all foreign programming. This ban led to direct anime ripoffs of shows like this and lots of other low quality dreck, like this one. In fact most of the "anime" that you used to find on those cheap VHS cassettes (and now on those dollar dvds) is from Korea during this period.



If you want to see the movie, you can download a keepable copy at the internet archive.

Osamu Tezuka’s The Amazing Three
