what, that's an anime????? I thought that was a french or american cartoon!!!! I thought Pokemon was the first ever anime i watched as a kid!!!! Well I guess it was a retelling of this jules vernes classic that was my first forray into anime territory. It's a review 15 years too late so i don't remember much otherwise that as a kid i used to love this maybe mostly because of the epic story.

Anyway it's good fun and great for 8 year old kids, it was for me at least.
