jwinges Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 Anybody know anything about Parasite Dolls. From what I gather from the preview its set in the Bubblegum crisis Universe except I don't see any hardsuits. Looks to be about a cop fighting boomers. Anybody know a release date? If its any good? If its on nova? Thanks Quote
yellowlightman Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 Don't know the details, but from what I remember it's a Bubblegum Crisis story without actually be set in the Bubblegum Crisis continuity. BGC2040, the new AD Police series and Parasite Dolls all use places and names from BGC, don't the continuity doesn't mesh up... they're seperate series. Quote
Gui Posted September 26, 2004 Posted September 26, 2004 You can get some (very) basic infos here, but nothing of real help though. Better than nothing anyway If anyone else has more details, I'll be interested to know aswell... Quote
Doryu2025 Posted September 26, 2004 Posted September 26, 2004 As far as I know, Parasite Dolls is set in the same world as the 13-part A.D. Police TV series. One thing to make perfectly clear is that the A.D. Police TV series is set in a different world to Bubblegum Crisis: Tokyo 2040. Some sources at the time of the show's release claimed that the two were connected, but having watched them both I can safely say they are not. Of course, both TV shows are still based on the same shared universe comprising both the original Bubblegum Crisis and A.D. Police OAVs from the late 80s/early 90s. Quote
Myriad Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 I grabbed it. Ifo on DVD claims it takes place in the "Original" universe. I enjoyed the DVD. I did not see any classic AD Police Classic vehicles in it though........ Here is a detailed review that I pretty much agree with. http://www.animeondvd.com/reviews2/disc_reviews/3378.php Quote
jwinges Posted October 30, 2004 Author Posted October 30, 2004 Saw this the other day. Not too bad. Not stellar but not bad at all. Definitely worth the rental from netflix. Quote
wakobi Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 (edited) Basically Parasite Dolls has the same feel as the old 80's AD Police OAV but modernised with better animation techniques. Just as dark, just as adult, just as cool Edited October 31, 2004 by wakobi Quote
Gui Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Anyone knows a place where I could find it? Quote
wakobi Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Ya, just search for it at DVDBoxOffice.com Quote
