A very underrated Masterpiece that takes place in a different Timeline, based on the fast Racing game F-Zero that Nintendo seems to always forget where Captain Falcon came from or even care about. But if your an F-Zero Fan or just love fast speed space machines! You will enjoy this anime so much amazing stuff and lore to the pilots and characters. (Mind you this anime aired in the earlier 2000s so give it some flack.) Also Please watch it subbed it is twenty times better then the crappy Foxbox/4kids one.
Characters
Pretty much all of them where vary likable. Dr.Stewart Jody Summers, Lucy Liberty, Ms.Killer.
I originally hated Ryu Suzaku, but ended up liking him as he grew in the anime. When
Black Shadow is a pure evil character on here compared to his F-Zero GX/X counterpart. Thats for…

For all I would like to say for this anime is that, despite the obvious budget they had to deal with, this anime had genuine effort to give a good story to the F zero fans and they delivered well. The main parts of the anime do a good job from beginning to end. The cool parts happen and gives the fans what they want. I like how they handled and i find it odd that they gave Super Arrow a lot of attention through out the series. I really like the characters designs in the anime and i think that was a really good art direction to take for these characters. All characters dont feel flat and its thoughtful that they try to use as many characters from the game. The anime itself isnt very good but as an F Zero fan this is the only really good things well get to see and the last thing we will get…

Many video games have been lauded for their brilliant plots. The minimalist storytelling, yet heavy symbolism of Shadow of the Colossus, which says so little in dialogue, yet evokes so much emotion. The knee slapping satire of the first Bioshock against Randian Objectivism. The astounding amount of lore, world building, and background that went into the Elder Scrolls games, or Mass Effect. The lovable characters, excellent action, and vibrant imagination of the Final Fantasy games (well some of them). Then there is F-Zero. It was a decent racing game on the SNES. Why did it get an anime? Who the fuck knows?!
Of all the oldschool video games to receive anime adaptations, I perhaps find this one the most baffling of all. Captain Falcon is a blast to play in Smash bros, but he isn't a charac…

If your not very sure what F-Zero is let me fill you in since the synopsis doesn't really explain much. F-Zero is one of the first futuristic racing games produced by Nintendo EAD and is a good seller amongst their franchises. You may have heard of the franchises main character Capt. Falcon appearing more popularly in the Super Smash Brothers Series with his signature Falcon Punch. Its funny because the Falcon Punch wasn't really a thing until this anime came out and was then spread by the Smash Bros Series. This was a damn good anime for its time and I am surprised barely anyone has actually seen it.
Story 9/10
The story is really deep and really focuses on explaining the F-Zero Universe. Most of the early episodes are somewhat filler as it usually follows a line of introduce one of the…

F-Zero GP Legends known from its awesome game franchise on the various Nintendo platforms and also fairly known for the Falcon Punch by Captain Falcon!
This anime series sure took me by surprise and on first looks it might not give you any wow effect when you just start the anime but the real action and story starts to develop right in the middle of the story which already starts to buildup development towards the last episode.
The story takes such a turn in quality from start till end that this anime certainly is worth a try even if you have to search wide and for for subs or even watch the raws but I can tell you it is totally worth it! Heck this anime even made me play the old games again!
The story itself is fairly decent, a slow but quite decent build up together with various diff…
